It was a bit late for a straight, but I still used one – and nicked myself. Will I ever learn?
Otherwise, I really like the Yaqi Bingcha brush – I may rejoin @DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social in his belief in synthetic superiority.
Have a good night!

It’s the first day of the Windy month, and also, BVWSC!
@gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social’s Dragonsbeard is an intriguing scent: it reminded me somewhat of Telegrama, by Imaginary Authors – which must be the vanilla, because otherwise, there doesn’t seem any scent in common. It is slightly spicy and woody, and I like it!
This time, after my problems last time, I was prudent enough to use a synthetic brush, and it was easy to lather (even though it drowned it slightly). Improvements!
Have a good evening!

Another republican day, another plant I knew nothing about. It’s this one, if you are interested. If you’re not interested, it it still this one.
In shave-related news, I got back my kamisori from Boris de Rivière on Saturday, sharpened it yesterday, and tried it out today in the morning. I didn’t pay enough attention when honing (I thought the issue was that I didn’t get close enough on the toe on the other side; doh!), but the toe slightly points into one direction, and can leave a trace in the strop. Also, I feel it on one side when shaving, so I guess the razor will have to go back on the stones before I use it again. I didn’t measure it before I sent it away, but I assume there has been quite considerable shortening going on.
Have a good day!

I don’t really know why, but this razor somehow fits me. It is on the lighter side, but not small. And it is shiny 😍

Thit’s what you get from not according your adjective with the noun’s gender! I had a shop close to my place called Casa Mexicano. It went broke.
Though Vero Moda is still going strong.

Where are you based? In Europe, they seem to be available via amazon, for instance, here:
Otherwise, the Zenith horse brush will probably make you happy as well!

Zenith horse brushes are good, but I prefer the Semogue (Pharos C3 or Galahad C3)

Since @vext01@lemmy.sdf.org mentioned a good shave with his 1912, I felt inspired to take mine out as well. The experience with this razor is always good, and today was no exception. I’m making progress on Ishtar – I’m seeing the bottom of the tub.
Have a good night!

As I understand, the Green Shadow is harder and better for Nagura stone slurries. The Black Shadow is to soft for JNAT-like use.

I have had The Watchman for quite some time, but this year it is vibing with me. Good shave with the Puma, getting to know better the Bingcha brush.
