BarberDave's Shaveapalooza

Nice posts Dave. You have quite the razor collection, but what caught my eye immediately was your Sorrentino brush. That one is a beauty! Also, would you happen to know of a good unscented talc powder? I have been looking, but they all seem to have some sort of scent added to them.
 
@Patelliott and it’s under $2!
 
@Patelliott sorry for the late response our internet is sporadically out and now I am using a Wi-fi hotspot. Borotalco is recommended and there are a few others that are unscented. If you are worried about the "Talc" Cancer connection, that has largely been dis-proven by a few medical studies, however these can be flawed. My case in point in this lack of QC is the fact they allowed @NurseDave to practice Medicine, when clearly he lives most of his life in a delusionary state, as well as one of envy as me being 10 yrs older I still look 20 yrs younger that he does. In fact the character that Jack Nicolson played in One flew over the Cuckoos Nest in based in large part on @NurseDave Lots of kernels left un-popped in that popcorn popper. But, I digress. Ans stated above if the Talc is an issue look for a cornstarch based powder.

Hope that helps, and we all pray for @NurseDave that he gets the medication and help he needs, not only for his delusions, but for his obsessive "fanboy" love of @Dave in KY :p

Thanks Pat See above and just weed through the Nurse Dave "Howard Cosell" Commentary HEHE
 
I really enjoyed your shave video today! I missed the name of the brush though, and it looked really nice. Could you tell me what it is?

Date: 05.15.2020 SR Shave #1738
Razor: Koraat "Ice Dragon" 6/8 FBH Zebra Damascus
Brush: WCS Honeycomb / Two-band finest Badger
Soap: Speick Shave Stick
Aftershave: Speick Aftershave Lotion
EdT Speick


Other than the stress of dealing with my Cable Company and working on 2- hours of sleep, I opted to throw caution at the wind and SR shave today. Tradtionally I would go for a DE or SE, or even an injector for zombie day, or when my blood pressure is so far off the charts due to inept people, that one shake could cause sushi. But, I had already taken the photo, and I could hear @NurseDave prancing around SFO excited that the Dragon was making an appearance.

Speick is just perfect!, period IMHO the most nourishing stuff on the planet from soaps, to deodorant, to splashes and EDT. Why I did not restock this German goodness for so long is beyond me, but now, stocked backup. I won't bore you with the details of what Speick is, what is does, and it's medicinal purposes. I will just say it is a gift from God, and your skin will love you for it.

3-passes today DSBBS, Still having to detour around what turned out to be a bit bigger of a racing stripe that 1st noticed but still able to get that are.,,,,,carefully. A generous splash of the Voodoo Juice, , some talc, and a few Vasilli's and one of my favorite shaves in the last few months
