Happy Sunday all! Lovely, sunny and perfect for some lawn work around the house.

Today’s razor of choice the Gillette Sheraton loaded up with a fresh Personna Lab Blue. She is a smooth shaver but not tame. I love using this razor quite a bit but it comes into rotation infrequently...I need to fix that.

Soap of the day Stirling Sharp Dressed Man which is light and crisp. Another beauty of a soap.

Nice three pass BBS shave achieved. Topped it all off with some English Laundry Windsor EDP. Some BBQ will happen today. Enjoy the day and some sun if you can.

Rating: 5 / 5

first use of LaToja. I have been wanting to try it for a long time and finally got some. I don’t love or hate the scent. But wow, it sure does perform quite well.

Brush: Maggard 26mm Timberwolf
Razor: Flare Tip
Blade: Gillette Wilkinson Sword (1)
Lather: Palmolive Shave Cream
Post Shave: Fine Accoutrements - Platinum - Aftershave

Rolled with this beginner setup today so that I could test out a couple new (to me) vintage Gillettes and make an instructional video for my buddy who is trying out DE shaving for the first couple of times this week. I sent him a synthetic brush, Palmolive cream and a Flare Tip to start off. He already had a good first shave on Friday after only watching a couple tutorials online beforehand. I'm hopeful that his shaves will continue to get better and he will be properly "converted" soon!

I'm glad to see so many people still enjoying shaving. Hopefully, everyone is getting to take more time and really enjoy and just get away for a bit. I lmreally enjoy seeing all of the hardware and software posted.

Normally I can tell his handles. That one is completely different from his style. I really like it.
