Shave of The Day

rinse the brush with warm water and then with cold water.
Shake until damp and then dry on a towel and fluff it up some.
Stand it on its base and you should be just fine.

I did not shave today. Surprised

I went to my usual barber after work yesterday morning for a haircut and shave. This is not new place or a new barber. I had my first haircut with Tony 20 years ago. Since then, my hair has started to fade on my head but I do have a heavy beard. Well, Tony is getting old now and I will never get a shave from him again. There was just something disturbing to hear his heavy Italian acent say, "Oh, lotsa blood..." This used to be my treat going in for a shave, and now my stuble is just as bad as before I went in and I'll have to shave again today. Crying or Very sad

So in short, Barbersol shaving cream (heated) and an old straight razor that really needs to be sharpened.

It's truly a sad day when you're struck with the realization that someone you've grown up admiring and respecting simply doesn't "have it" any more. I don't know if it's more feeling sorry for them, or knowing that we'll be there some day as well.

Anyhow, Merkur 33C with a Dorco blade

Finished up with Witch Hazle
