Hi again B&Bers!

This SOTD Weekly Theme is all about the upcoming fall season! Fall officially starts this week in the Northern Hemisphere. The first day of fall is Sunday, September 22nd, 2024β€”the same day as the autumn equinoxβ€” and we want to see lots of fall themed pics! Apologies to our Southern Hemisphere B&Bers who are in the beginning of spring, but pull out a fall scented soap or eat/drink something pumpkin spice! πŸ€ͺ

Post your SOTD with some of the falling leaves than many of us will be raking up for the next few weeks or anything else that says fall to you!

Going apple picking or harvesting cranberries? Incorporate it into your picture. Have a great fall shaving soap (I am partial to Southern Witchcrafts Pomona myself 🍎), we want to hear about it. Are you starting your fall baking? Perfect! You are addicted to pumpkin spice lattes? My condolences, but that works too! Excited about the NFL season or the upcoming NHL hockey season or MLB baseball playoffs? Works for us!

Nothing fall themed? Please still post a pic of your usual shaving setups. Or post pics of your usual SOTD or just tell us all about it. Let’s see lots of great fall images this week!

As always, being creative and having fun IS mandatory but sticking with the theme is NOT mandatory but very strongly encouraged.

Let’s see your Fall themed shaving setups!

This is the third excellent shave with the Timeless SS SB .68 razor and blade combination. This is a heavy razor that provides a nice balance. The next brush in my rotation is the B&B LE 2014 made by Rudy Vey. The brush has a Shavemac Silvertip two-band D02 knot. The shave was a perfect BBS shave, Have a great day and week, folks.
