2's Day, February 22, 2/22/22

[KQY61]

Hi,

I thought this idea odd. Wasn't gonna. But, I did it anyway. As two shaves, actually.

I used my Fasan DoubleSlant and my Grandfather's Old Type.

Personna Med Prep blade in the OT and an Astra in the Fasan.

My horsehair brush on the left and my old boar brush on the right.

My soap is always half and half in an Old Spice mug. Oster vintage tallow and Carden Farms modern glycerine.
The brush does the mixing.

I don't use AS, so that doesn't apply.

One shave in the morning and the other just now. So, doubled up shaves.

Stan

Ended up receiving the era today which made it a Blackland x Blackland, fougere x fougere, and boar x boar daily double on the twosiest of days. Thanks to those of you who joined me on 2/22/22, I look forward to seeing you all on "threesday", Thursday 3/3/33!

I'm here, posting about the ERA delayed my 2's day report.

And if I get cut up, styptic and toss those blades!

In case of irritation, or just a final salute to 2's day at bedtime:

It took forever, but it was a truly outstanding shave. I credit the extensive prep and the additional focus engendered by so many razors, one of which arrived at the last minute.

I completely forget to transfer activities to the second sink in the alternative den when post-shave commenced. I was wrapped up in evaluating the Blackland ERA and took my eye off the ball.

Thanks, @Sinnbad11 this was the ultimate 2's. But I'm glad 3/3/33 is a long way off!
