-- Monday, August 4--
Prep: Face wash with bath soap and water
Razor: HTGAM Symmetry Open Comb
Blade: Super-Max Titanium (5)
Brush: Stanley home Products restored with Omega boar knot from TGN
Soap: Petal Pusher Fancies Oakmoss and Sage
Scuttle: None
Post: Thai Crystal deodorant alum stick and Thayers's witch hazel
Result: BBS in 3+ passes. Great shave. I am impressed with how the Symmetry razor (RR/Cadet OC clone) performs. On my RR/Cadet I always use an Ikon handle, but the Symmetry handle is excellent and I love using it. PPF soaps are amazingly good. Don't miss the tallow in this soap at all. It's very rich with fat, very thirsty and very slick when properly hydrated.
