If you have to do something...

Shave #25 (500 Open Blade Shaves) of 2022:

Gear: Colonial “Armored” Brass General, Feather Pro blade, TH Taurus A synth brush, CBL Sir Fougere soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Sir Irisch Moos AS, and PR Phantom to finish!

Much better nights sleep!

Great shaves continue with the Moos setup this morning. No real special frag today…just a solid attempt to use up some more sample frags. Phantom I’m not too keen on, so it was more of “hm, how much do I think I can get away with spraying before it become obnoxious?” 😂

Weather has held here in SB. Fairly chilly mornings/evenings but sunny and warm days. Hopefully we’ll get some more rain in…doesn’t look like any time soon though.

Have a great Tuesday all!
 
Shave #26 (500 Open Blade Shaves) of 2022:

Gear: Colonial “Armored” Brass General, Feather Pro blade, Yaqi Sagrada Familia synth brush, CBL Sir Fougere soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Sir Irisch Moos AS, and Azzaro PH to finish!

Almost half way through the week! This week is flying by…and I’m OK with that!

Repeat shave this morning, with repeat great results! Just swapped out the brush and frag. No get-it-over-with scent sample today, no sir! Today I generously sprayed that full sized Azzaro PH for that nice, fresh modern barbershop! Yes!

Average Wednesday ahead, with OT workout included later this evening.

Have a great Wednesday all!
 
Shave #27 (500 Open Blade Shaves) of 2022:

Gear: Colonial “Armored” Brass General, Feather Pro blade, Stirling 2-band synth brush, CBL Steel Grey Fougere soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, CBL Barba AST, and PR Invictus to finish!

Decent night’s rest and not feeling to sore after yesterday’s workout!

Great shave to kick my butt into gear. Usual suspects again…again just swapped out the brush and frag. Invictus may be the one half decent frag I’ve had from PR so far…peppery vanilla…still not bottle worthy though. Thankfully Barba helps kick it up a couple notches!

IDT meeting to attend this morning. A couple patient calls. Let’s do this!

Happy Thursday all!
