A successful, easy peasy two pass shave. I've been so focused on shaving with vintage SE razors lately that it takes a bit of remembering proper unmentionable technique...assuming I've ever had proper unmentionable technique!
The dreamy feeling of the Semouge SOC boar against my face was matched perfectly with the creamy goodness of Tabac. I didn't load too much to the brush, but spent a good deal of time adding water to get proper hydration. The more I think about it, when I was bowl lathering I would spend a good bit of time adding water and agitating to get the just right lather. Why would it take any less time on my face? I need to continue to practice increased patience while face lathering!Tomorrow's programming will include more unmentionable goodness!
