Comments	This was the second shave with the Razor Rock Stealth Slant razor and Personna Medical Prep blade. I like this razor. However, the one thing I don’t like is the bulk of the head. It is difficult to get all of the hairs close to my nose. The next brush in my rotation was an Omega 81052 Boar brush. The brush easily loads lather and makes plenty of it. Razor Rock soap was used for the 23rd consecutive day. The result was a perfect BBS shave. Have a wonderful day and week, folks.

Literally, “forest bath” or “forest immersion” conveys the idea of immersing oneself in the forest atmosphere, connecting with nature, and experiencing its calming and rejuvenating effects. It's a popular practice in Japan and has gained recognition worldwide for its health benefits.

It's the Hinoki smell (a very pleasant cedar). I have a Hinoki and Sage from PAA that also sets the mood, as well as Heiwa from Wet The Face.
