If I knew what I know now, I would have gone to community college and called it a day or just should have enrolled in barber college. I'm so glad I've been free of student debt for the last 4 years! I carried it around for 12 years....

I was fortunate as well. My undergrad and masters were paid with my GI Bill and I was also fortunate to pay for all other industry education, continuing Ed, and Barber School with cash
Nooooo! I just pulled a @Majorrich and hit stop when I thought I was starting the recording.

Welcome to the world of adulthood and all that comes with it.
Re-shave LOL
Luckily it was just during the first few minutes and I needed to stop and go look up something. Otherwise I would have missed the whole shave like I did in Vegas!

I was also able to do the shave faster than yesterday. Got away with a couple of touchdowns so all is good.

The Kamisori is a fine looking instrument.

Got a little lit up on the cheeks today with the alum. Maybe playing a little fast and loose with the kami. That’s ok, I’m still feeling the face smooth. Even through I’m on PTO today, I’m online from 2-7:30 straight. Two classes followed by a scotch tasting. One of those will be more enjoyable than the others.

If you use a back-and-forth sawing motion, your kamisori should cut through the tougher grey whiskers with ease. It might save you from some razorburn/irritation.
That’s not a knife…..this is a knife! Now if you use this and get a little tingle from the alum - I can see that
I’ll try that on the next cruise!

Oh my, oh my. I'm dragging today. My wife got home last night after a last-minute scramble when her flight was going to be delayed over 12hrs until today because of a lack of staff. Got to bed late and woke up with a headache and just draggin' tail. Didn't prep any coffee not like it works miracles, but I'll likely go pay for some. It ain't Friday, but I only have 3 working days until our trip next week. And somewhere in there need to finish the first draft of my final paper for school.
6 and out for the Kami. No problems and did get a little more used to it. Tomorrow it will be interesting to see how the Essence feels.
