Decided to go for a mild shave today since I was barely out of DFS status from yesterday and have had less than 24 hrs of growth. Got a nice, easy 2 pass BBS with no damage or irritation. Decided to change up the aftershave and went with the Deep Woods. Hoping for a quiet "Monday" at work.

Well the shave today started out with the Wostenholm razor I just rescaled but alas th he edge I put on it yesterday was no good, which I was worried would be the case. The spine has some really weird and uneven honewear and I think someone had tried to give it and edge as if it were a knife. So I will give it another try later and then proceeded with my backup plan of the MTO.

Got a nice 2 pass BBS and was off to work.

\n\nIt does but it weighs at least twice as much and is all metal. Also seems to have stainless innards as i have never seen any sign of rust and it is several years old.

I have a MicroTouch also and can attest that while they look alike, they are drastically different lol.

Did my opposite day shave video today. Went pretty well. Got a good 90% BBS and no irritation or weepers.

Ah it feels good to use a straight again. Got a nice e comfortable shave but only came out BBS above the jawline and DFS below. I think it was the soap. Just had no slickness today. I probably underhydrated it. Still no irritation and just a couple weepers. Finished up with The Veg. Yup that's right. This is the second time I have tried it and this time I was chosen, although it did try to play with me. Started kinda sweet the went skunky for a brief moment before settling down to something I can't quite put to words but is very nice.
 
Well then... I thought you were an okay guy...and then you had to bust out the Veg! I hear that the Veg repels vampires...oh wait...that's garlic. Ah that's right...the Veg repels...EVERYONE!

And it was after this shave that young Kyle found himself at a table in the lunch room all by himself.
