Back to the circle

Today was a two blade shave. I’ve used the Feather blade for a few full shaves (dome and face) and while it was cutting today, it just wasn’t efficient enough for my liking, especially up on top. So after the first pass, and cleaning up the vast majority of dome hair, I swapped out to a Merkur blade to finish the shave, then move onto the face.

The circle beard really doesn’t annoy me anywhere near as much as a full bear does. So I shaved the parts that always annoy me and become itchy leaving the circle beard. It certainly is much easier to leave the circle beard alone, the only annoying part is getting nice edges, but I do what I can.

The shaving bandwagon still cannot find the lost wheels.

Late to the party

  • Prep: Hot Splash
  • Razor: Razorock – Lupo Aluminium
  • Blade: Feather
  • Brush: Yaqi – Lucky Dice
  • Lather: Stirling Soap – Margaritas in the Arctic
  • Post-shave: Proraso – Alum Block

The shaving bandwagon has lost the wheels. They cannot be found anywhere.

It has been two whole weeks since my last shave, both on the head and the face. Maybe I just need to go back to clippers for a few weeks, get over being scruffy and maybe shaving will become enjoyable again. I think that is what I am missing.
