Ok....the title is maybe a little overdone BUT REALLY...
After a couple of years of DE shaving, due almost entirely to this site, my life, especially my mornings, are enjoyable again. I cant believe I would have ever been caught dead saying this but... I LOVE SHAVING! But before B&B...I hated it!
Now,after a couple of years of shaving with wonderful soaps (Tabac, Cella-Crema Da Barba, Ogalalla Bay Rum & Sandalwood, and Provence Sante Green Tea) and creams (Musgo Real, TOB Avocado, Speick) and wonderful brushes (Semogue,E.J), and my trusty and wonderful birthday year vintage gillette d.e. razors (1955) and really sharp blades, my mornings are my favorite part of the day. And where else could I have found out what a miracle witch hazzle is!? Such a wonderful, calming ritual that starts my day...I wish I could convince more of my friends to give it a try.
Through B&B I also returned to using fountain pens after 35 years. What a satisfying way to communicate. What an enjoyable way to participate in written communication.
It is funny how taking some time to participate in and appreciate some rituals of the past can enrich and help us appreciate (survive) our world and lives today.
Anyway, thanks to everyone who has contributed to this site that made this transformation possible....Keep up the great work!
