Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber today. 20 seconds to load the oscar11/TGN High Mountain White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette Silver Blue still in the Gillette Slim. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Country Club Classic Fougere aftershave.

Today I decided to go with the razor that started it all eight months ago, Baili TTO. I haven’t used it in a long time, and was still making many mistakes back then so getting a nice irritation free shave was a score.

Today, I loaded it up with a fresh Feather and had a great shave. It’s just about mild enough to still be efficient, and paired with a Feather, was a very pleasant combination. I still think I like a little more aggressiveness, but if I only had to use that combo for the rest of my life, I wouldn’t complain.
