This will be my first attempt at any kind of journal. I got into wet shaving about 8 months ago. I started using the single blade the back of a Harry’s cart in a pinch and didn’t get quite as much irritation. Went to Target to pick up more cartridges and picked up a VDH instead and haven’t looked back since. Now my evening shave is my zen time before going to bed. It turned into a hobby quickly as having a young daughter doesn’t lend much time to turn wrenches on my motorcycles, let alone disappear into the canyons for hours on end during the weekends.
Today I had a few first, both in the shave realm and as a dad. Just killed a tub of soap for the first time (CBL ROS), completed 30 shaves on a single blade, saw my 22 month old face plant off the top of a seesaw and experience her first time throwing up (completely unrelated to the play ground incident). Not really sure where I’m going with any of this, just rambling. Overall it was a fairly good day. My sister in law and family stopped by for a little bit and it was nice catching up and watching the kids play. Went out for Pho with my girls after that and another trip to the park. Rounded out the day cleaning up vomit then a later than usual shave.
RR DLC Lupo
Israeli Personna (30)
Yaqi 24mm 2-band
CBL Tonsorial Roasted Oatmeal Stout
Proraso green splash
Took 4 passes and quite a bit of buffing to get a near BBS result. Just a touch of irritation on my neck, not terrible but I’m really looking forward to loading up a fresh blade.
