👖 🔵 🫐 “SOTD - I’VE GOT THE BLUES! Theme Week” January 17th, 2022 to January 23rd, 2022 👖 🔵 🫐

[SharpieB]

Hello fellow B&Bers!


SOTD Theme Week with a “BLUE” twist this week.


Let’s see SOTD pics with BLUE backgrounds, BLUE skies, something made of turquoise, Bluejeans, Blueberries, BLUE soap packaging, Cookie Monster, Smurfs, Blue Moon beer, Blues music or even an appearance by something St Louis Blues or Blue Jays related (Winnipeg Blue Bombers, anyone?).


What we are trying to say is that anything BLUE would work!


Per usual, if you don’t have anything themed… post pics of your shave or just tell us all about what you used and what you thought of your shave!


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


I hope your 2022 is starting well and you don’t have the… wait for it…. BLUES!

Comments	Just came back from a two-day weekend trip where I used my travel setup: Red Tip razor with a Lord SS blade, and a Muhle Syn Fibre brush. This week I will be using the Seaforth Sea Spice. Today was my first use of it. The scent is delightful and the performance on first use was excellent. I will discuss the soap in greater detail after a few uses. A very nice shave. Have a good week, folks.

The problem with matching the theme on Monday morning is that I wake up, shower and shave. Then I first read the forum over breakfast. I don’t get to see the theme until it’s too late. Got lots of blue. Next shave. Today I did a head to head shave between the Wolfman WR2 in 1.25 and 1.15.

What do you think of what I have in store for the next couple of days? Here is a sneak preview.

Maybe there could be an announcement of the upcoming theme on Sunday?

Besides, did you post a review on your interesting head to head shave?
