Yes sir - according to the documentation - so weāll see - maybe a good shave tonight!
RING....RING....RING....click....."Brian is unavailable for the next few hours as he will be shaving every part of his body with multiple razors. Please leave you name and a brief message and he will select an aftershave in your honor to dab on the area he is currently shaving."
Hard pass
Hopefully they are soft passes.
Oh man, that was a lot funnier than it should have been.

Fantastic shave this morning - absolutely love the scents - they just say - Summer! Iām ready to dive in!
The soap and AS are part of WCSās releases for the South Floridaās Wet Shavers (SFWS)ā¦ā¦.which I find ironic because all the artisans that ever participate are from the North East (Caties Bubbles, Wholly Kaw, Barrister & Mann, K Shave Worx) or South West (Stirling, Murphy & McNeil)ā¦..go figure.
The soap is a hard puck which is unusual for Caties Bubbles - the lather seems typical of their other releases. The scent is a nice citrus, melon, and sandalwood blend with a little bit of hedione to give the beachy feel. The balm I used is another one of those limited releases from Soap Commander - with some menthol added to the melon and citrus notes.
The cologne is an A&E classicā¦ā¦.got everything I needā¦..
The only issue of the shave is while the new razor came shave ready - my other razors have the 333 leader @Bill M honemeister touchā¦..I may need to make him an offer to do his magic on this oneā¦.it has a nice edge - but I want an elite edge.
Have a great day!

I had to try out this new fad of citrus and boozy scents - this is new to me and I had to see what all the fuss was about
Sorry my blog was hacked there for a minute - of course this was a great shave for me - both artisans did a great job with both scent and performance. Jil Sander Sun has a very nice orange note - no booziness - so I may layer some Pepe Jeans Cocktail on top of it.
Nice to try out another straight - I can see, just like yesterday, why these artisans are making a splash. I love the olive wood for scales. I do want to tighten up the edge to make a little sharper.
Hopefully Aidan and I will do something in the sun today- I woke up and my right ear is clogged- hopefully just sinus issues and not an infection - overall still feel pretty good.
Have a great day everyone!
