I finished the work week with the DE and today I needed an SR shave. I went with hot lather and it was amazing. Life is good!

How far are you on the 3017 of the soap?

There is a small hole to the bottom, but high on the sides. Still a ways to go. Deb and I went to get street tacos and she asked what I was wearing. I told her and she said she liked it. I pressed her further and she said she loved it. Welp it’s on my purge list, because she didn’t say that before, so I guess I will be buying a replacement.

Another glorious hot lather today and the soap holds up well to the heat. I kept the same gear, so no pic for you. I will also probably use this brush all week to work on the break in.

20 laps on linen and 60 on leather and it was onto the shave. I went with my standard three passes of WTG, XTG and ATG with no drama to report. Three smooth passes and I am BBS for the win! Chased that with the Thayers Witch Hazel. Followed that up with a splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain. Very nice shave to start my chill day. Life is good!

Well, I was getting tired of the 3017 thing and decided to mix things up a bit. So I changed all my kit out. I haven’t used Sangre de Drago in awhile, so it got the nod. I also just blindly grabbed whatever hardware was around as well.

20 laps on linen and 60 on leather and it was onto the shave. I went with my standard three passes of WTG, XTG and ATG with no drama to report. Three smooth passes and I am BBS for the win! Slapped on some Thayers Witch Hazel. And followed that up with a splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain. I am really digging these hot lather shaves. Life is good!
