I'll make this really simple today.

R41 PSS(3) Proraso Menthol original Green.

One pass.

One pass for me, and one for my homies.

No cuts, nicks or bumps. Awesomeness.

Then I did a cartwheel out of the bathroom to show my dominance to my wife.

Peace be upon you.

Nice shave today. The Sticky is a fantastic razor and the Derby Lemon cream is perfect for summer. Topped off with the very nice Myrsol Lemon.
 
Kamisori: Takemaru
Brush: Omega S10108
Soap: Barrister & Mann Latha
Aftershave: Myrsol F/Extra

Recently I dropped down to a shave every two days. I'm liking the routine a lot, particularly the extra close shaves I get when the whiskers are a little longer.

You'll have to ditch the avatar then mate.....

Waldolf and Statler are gone (plus you don't want to be associated with the balcony 'haters' mob), as are Gonzo (me), the Swedish Chef (@borked), American Eagle (well @Mark1966 should be him!)...hey considering the soap creation thing maybe you and @bald as could toss a coin for Dr. Bunsen Honeydew or Beaker....

I knew it was just a bunch of muppets here ....
 
Preshave: Occams Original
Razor: Merkur 39C
Blade: Astra SP
Brush: Semogue 610
Soap: Proraso Green
Splash: Proraso Green
Balm: Proraso Green

Proraso green shave tonight for some much needed menthol. The Occams preshave bar is really nice quality.
I lathered over top of it today, definitely made the first pass more comfortable. I need to get the lime one sometime!
 
Pre-shave: Cetaphil Cleansing Bar
Razor: Merkur 34C
Blade: PSS (5)
Soap: B&M Latha Sandalwood
Brush: Semogue 1800
Post-shave: Alum & Speick

Another great shave today. Learnt that point on my neck where the hair growth meets (grows up and outward at the bottom, and down and outward at the top), and making sure I avoid ATG passes. Huge difference.

Did that include a pelvic thrust in her general direction ?
If not, only partial dominance asserted, possibly undermined by lack thereof!

Hmm, that works, probably his daily getup too ( requests confirmation from @stillshunter )
:)
So in that case, is @Monsta_AU Kermit ?
@JugV2 being a drummer, naturally would be Animal :)
Just worried who's copping MIss Piggy!

Another day, another w/o shaving.
Feel like I fit into the unshaven mass quite well now, itching upon the other hand... can't wait to lop it off and contemplating what I should use, as it will be about a months worth of growth by time I do.

Preshave: @Draco Noir preshave oil
Razor: Edwin Jagger DE89 with Windrose handle
Blade: Rapira Swedish Supersteel
Brush: Vie Long Horse
Soap: Chiseled Face Summer Storm( Thanks @Draco Noir )
Post Shave: Loccitane BAVX balm and Pinaud Clubman AS
Three pass shave with no irritation or cuts. The Chiseled Face soaps are a challenge to lather and time and effort is required but you will get a good lather out of it. The scent of cut grass is prevalent in this one.

@borked what gear will you use for your first shave back? We should give you suggestions. I suggest you use the Beaver Woodright Ghost Ship soap :)
 
WOW - that is some blade!
And if you look hard enough, you can buy one just like it.

Is that a subtle *Borked, can you list all your gear please* comment ? ;)
