  • Brush: Stirling Soap Co. Green & Ivory 24mm Synthetic 2-Band Knot
  • Razor: Aylsworth Razors Drakkant Plus
  • Blade: Gillette Platinum [18]
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Weekend in Malibu - Soap
  • Post Shave: Southern Witchcrafts - Incorporeal - Aftershave (Alcohol Free)

I don't think that I've gone this long without shaving since I started shaving traditionally. The Aylsworth took care of four days of growth like it was nothing.

Rating: 4/5

four days of growth

Yeah, I've missed one day in the last 2½ years. Feels weird to have that much growth, but I bet that was a really close shave.

four days of growth

Last time I did this was as a participant in the 2021 Atlas Shaves Challenge. I didn't enjoy it😅

This is why I avoid Atlas Shaves 😆

Yeah, I hear you😅

A lesson was learned that year
