Day 5 of Austere August! Mr. Stagman
I paid with blood for this picture
FINALLY!!! I have time to write a normal SOTD post. I was kind of annoyed how the last few posts went.
So good news, I'm 31 now. Bad news. While making the photos from yesterday and today the razor managed to slip and hit the cutting edge on the cap of the aftershaves must've been the gravitational ring pull of the awesomeness of Stag. Thankfully it is a very micro chip and it doesn't affect the shave quality itself.
I did pay with some blood for these pictures, the palace where I want from the 1st to the 3rd had a nice big sequoia forest and I had an awesome idea of how to make a picture. Sun was right everything was well, but I either forgot or didn't know the swarm of mosquitoes that attacked me, I was almost laying on the floor trying to take a picture and they were draining me or my blood, in the end I was left with 2 good pictures, the one from today I like more.
The brush. I was informed by u/EldrormR that since my pic didn't have the brush in it I wasn't eligible for the flair or prize, with which I was ok. There was just no way how to add the brush and I knew that it would get disqualified. I am saying all of this not to complain, just to compliment how awesome he is for telling me and staying true to the rules! Nevertheless I will finish my 31 days of shaves with it and see how it is in the end.
The brush itself is getting even more grungy and splitting well, but my lather problems are still there, that does not discourage me even one bit, by the end I will have mastered it, no doubt in my mind. Today I saw the post of u/J33PGUY13 and was so happy to hear what he had done, congrats on sharing the pig love my man.
In general I am a synth man. I know I will never use badgers unless someone gifts one to me(had one pifed it). I took on this challenge to see how well I will get along with a pig. For the most part it's nice, the face feel is good, but the lather that comes out in the end... Mmmm not what I'm looking for. I will try bowl lathering when all of this is over to see how well that goes.
So far I am enjoying this challenge with my favourite scent and catching up on my straight shaves.

- #sidetracked Just one more time! So why this song? Well even though the original is nice, this one carries a lot of melancholy with it, I found this song after some stuff with a girl and it makes me sad and happy at the same time. The cover by itself is, while short, very catchy and I think that the video is a gem on it's own. You should check their other songs, I was pleasantly surprised when listening to their music :))l
