Old Hippie

Somewhere between 61 and dead
SOTD: Friday January 14, 2022
Razor: RazoRock BBS-OC
Blade: Astra SP (4)
Brush: Omega 10005 Boar
Soap: Old Hippie "Peppermint Trip" Groovy Shave Soap

I'll probably change up the razor next week after I finish off this blade, but I'm really enjoying the BBS-OC. Mostly I'm getting a solid DFS just about every time. My brush is getting tuned up for the Peppermint Trip soap now, so lathers are bigger and longer-lasting. The shave was a calm and delightfully scented start to the day.

O.H.
