A new habit?

03.12.2021 by Andrew

  • Prep: Hot Splash
  • Prep: Phoenix Shaving – Cube 2.0 Unscented
  • Razor: Razorock – Lupo Aluminium
  • Blade: Merkur Super Platinum
  • Brush: Yaqi – Lucky Dice
  • Lather: Phoenix Shaving – Frost Byte
  • Post-shave: Proraso – Alum Block

I really don’t know who I am anymore. I have not been able to encourage myself to keep up with regularly scheduled shaving.

Although everytime I go through with a shave, I really enjoy the post-shave feeling, the smells, and the process of shaving. It was so easy to break a habit during lockdown, but now it is hard to break in the habit once again.

Today’s shave was much needed, and as usual a a reminder of better times when I actually took care of myself, mentally and physically, by putting myself first for just a few minutes a couple of days a week.

I have said the same for the last few shaves, and not been able to make it a new, regular habit, maybe this time.
