2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


One of my two favorite scents from TCB:

Top Notes: Bergamot, Mandarin, Neroli, Violet Leaf, Black Currant, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom.
Heart Notes: Blue Lotus, Cypress, Palo Santo, Green Woods, and Spanish Moss.
Base Notes: Cedarwood, Patchouli, Oakmoss, Vetiver, Ambergris, Wet Earth (Petrichor), and Clean Musk

This little brush came in a Truefitt & Hill gift set. It is a killer silvertip brush. Absolutely top tier.

    • Brush: AP Shave Co. - Synbad 24mm Synthetic
    • Razor: RazoRock GOAT - 🐐

    • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Petrichor - Aftershave

    I shaved with my non-dominant hand, and think I'll try and do that consistently to give my dominant hand a break. My right hand has had an injury for about 2.5 years and it's time to let it heal. I've already learned how to strop with my left hand, so I know it'll be just a matter of time until I get the muscle memory down.

    The shave went well, but of course it took a bit longer. It was serendipitous that I reached for the GOAT today. The great knurling, covered blade tabs, and wide range of shaving angles make it a great razor for someone who has no clue what they're doing!

    Were you already using both hands with a straight, or is this your first foray into non-dominant hand shaving?

    Sorry to hear about your hand, hope that heals up soon.

    I think I cracked this soap: I need to go in very dry, and add not too much water, and only very little at a time. Good lather ensues.

    Have a good night!
