Shave Count (DE: 425 SE: 9 SR: 515)
Pre Shave-
Strop: none
Splash and go
Shave-
Razor: Gillette Slim
Blade: Astra SP (1)
Brush: SV TSC LE Badger
Soap: Stirling Piacenza
Post Shave-
Post shave lather
AS: Stirling Piacenza
Frag: none
The Process-
Very nice late morning shave. On deck today was Piacenza while I gave my brother a lesson in traditional shaving. I walked through a great three pass shave, explaining everything as I went. It was strange talking while I was shaving. I am smelling great and BBS for the win! Life is good!
So I hooked my brother up with everything he needed to get started. The Tech and Yaqi brush thanks to @Dave in KY. I originally planned on doing something else with the Stirling Deton-8, but kept it out for him to sniff. He sniffed a lot of my soaps and decided that he wanted Mike’s Natural Barbershop and my homemade Patchouli AS. I also gave him Astra SP blades, WH, a styptic and my old Dopp bag. Also told him to hit me up when he needed more blades. We’ll see how far he goes.
