Shave of austerity #31
2 pass shave to finish off the month. I missed zero days, and posted maybe ten shaves on time or around the time I actually shaved.
I was riding thrill high for the past two AA’s, and entered this one after a slump of night posting daily shaves for the better part of six months. Shaving had become a routine, and that fit perfectly into my third season of AA.
I used this shavette last year, and I believe I probably pursued closer shaves last year by using three passes more regularly. Needless to say, this year had shaves not as smooth or close, but I also didn’t feel like a slouch for a single day.
This is my second season with Zenith B2; I imagine it has somewhere around 150 shaves, and is blossoming well. It probably is not my favorite brush, but I have almost definitely put more work into developing it than any other brush.
This was my first season with Mammoth Tusk base; I entered the month only having shaved with this set possibly once or twice. It is a perfect fit for any day; the notes can be dressed up or down. I found a fragrance match in NO Lonestar ADP.
I would use any item in this shave routine any day. Each is a fine piece of equipment. Thanks for a wonderful month of shaves!
