Greetings
Monday 11th August 2014
Prep: Shower
Razor: Joseph Elliot 6/8th
Brush: Burma Shave Boar
Soap: Tabac Stick Grated
Aftershave: Astral Cream (light)
EDT: Quorum
I'm thrilled with this mornings shave, whilst hardly a Eureka moment I completed a whole shave without any facial damage, I used both hands and managed to get my chin nice and smooth. Whilst not a perfect shave it is certainly as good as a two pass SE shave without touching up. I did two passes and a little extra in the difficult areas.
Whilst I still have a very long way to go I now feel I have stepped up to the second rung on the straight shaving ladder, this was my eleventh straight shave and my goal is to get to grips with it by Christmas.
Regards
Dick.
