Hello B&Bers!

I am taking over for @SharpieB this week. So i am going to try something new! At least I don't think this was done before.

Welcome to FIGURINE WEEK!

This is an easy one. Post a photo of your shave with a figurine of some kind. Whether it's a Funco Pop, a chess piece, a Barbie doll, baby Yoda, or even one of your Grandma's Hummels. Anything! Easy peasy!

If you don’t have anything themed, post pics of your usual SOTD or just tell us about it.

As always, being creative and having fun IS mandatory but sticking with the theme is NOT mandatory but encouraged.

Let’s see those figurine shaves of the day!!!

Shaving with a Kamisori requires a balance of funny grips and funny faces. But a Kamisori shave is a shave like no other. I'm always amazed at how well such a simple tool performs. No wonder Kamisoris have been in use for almost a thousand years.

A new week and a new razor/blade combo. I switched to a HensonTi** razor and loaded it with a Personna Medical Prep Blade. The shave was OK – close but not as comfortable as usual. Today’s brush is a Zenith Manchuria. This brush is great. It is very dense and holds an incredible amount of superb lather. If I didn’t have so many brushes I would add a few more to my collection. Have a great day and week, folks.

A very nice smooth shave. Blade on it's sixth use but still efficient for three passes. I will keep it going.
