Hi guys, sorry I haven’t posted in a while. To be honest I lost my shaving mojo and mojo in general. I’m trying to come out of a pretty deep depression.

I’m glad I was appointed as the GSB game warden LOL.

Last night’s shave
1960’s Gillette Super Speed
Gillette Nacet (3)
Tabac non-tallow
Omega 48

Last night’s shave
This was a medium speed single pass shave WTG. I really enjoy the smell of Tabac which was mug/face lathered. I think I might get rid of the remainder of my Gillette Nacet blades. Though they are sharp, I don’t find they are very smooth even on the third shave.

Welcome back, sir.

Glad you’re back, @JKaboom !

Please keep fighting that beast (depression, not people hunting without a permit in the GSB Royal Forests).

Great to see you back JK! And sorry to read you were in a rough patch. Sounds like you are rising again - I hope.

Cheers,

Fellow baldy Guido

I'm glad you are back and if you ever need anything let me know!

I've had a few funks this year myself! 2025 is going to be a better year!

Here's to that, Andrew.

Preshave
Johnsonsons and Johnsons baby wash
Proraso blue preshave
Lather - Proraso blue cream
Razor - 1940’s Gillette tech
Blade - Astra superior platinum Russian made. (4)
Brush - Parker synthetic entry level
Postshave - Proraso blue

Had a good shave today. Ended up being a CCS and I had to work for it a little bit. Used all Proraso products today that my brother got me last Christmas. I like Proraso blue, good postshave feel and nourishing. I might PIF the brush it does not splay well at all.

I applaud your courage in sharing with us. 2019 was the Big Suck for me and then 2020 hit the world. Best wishes for your continued fighting.
