Great photo today.

Most of the stands are chrome plated brass rod and small adjustments can be made to them by bending.

Last shave of the year, and it was a great one!

Hot shower
SR 3124
Merkur HD w/Derby Extra blade Day 1 (chickened out on the Feather)
C&E Sienna cream (sample from C&E store)
Alum
Booster Aquarius A/S splash (from Secret Santa!)
Thayer's Lavender W/H
Proraso Liquid A/S balm
Creed Himalaya EdT

WONDERFUL shave. The C&E Sienna was very lubricating and smooth. I'm still working up the nerve to do a Feather blade, but I definitely think I'm getting my technique down pat. I've got to score some more Booster Aquarius A/S -- I'm definitely digging that stuff. Anyone know someplace in the USA that sells it?

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!!!!

This time of year, it's sometimes said, "Out with the old, in with the new." But this morning I went back to my Merkur Classic LH (an old favorite), and a blade that I had decided wasn't for me (Merkur).

But I got a better-than-passable shave this morning, so maybe I won't write the Merkur blades off completely.

Sunday afternoon, last shave of the year,
A Method Shave, following all of CAR's directions. Very smooth. Very, very smooth. lacks the fragrance of Mama Bear's stuff (my favorite,) but with Method Shaving I can go over a spot repeatedly without irritation. Sometimes you need that.
Muhle Pinsel Acrylic Silvertip
Merkur HD Classic
Feather Blade

Out with the old, in with the new!

Happy New Year to all of us on B&B--You folks really brighten my life in all kinds of wonderful ways. When I came here six months ago, I was just looking for shaving info. I got all that much more besides. Thanks. and may we soon see a year of peace.
