I like that mindset about cleaning up with a DE. You get to use 2 great razors. It's great to have 2 different shaving experiences in one shave. Sometimes I like to use a different razor with a lot of blade feel for the first 2 passes, and a Tech to finish. I've got a Kopperkant on the way, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it feels.
I appreciate that Lee! I beat myself up so much about having to finish with a DE, that it turned me off of straight blades, but I really missed them so the mindset change helped reinvigorate that passion. That’s a great idea you have as well, I like that. The Kipparkant is one I’m taking a real hard look at for the new year, I already have a Drakkant… but still, it’s nice to collect them all hahaha. Have a great rest of the week!
I've had Ace Of Spades and Dicken's Cider on my mind for a few days now. It's only a matter of time before you see me use those too. Great shave buddy! I'm glad the dealership replaced the tire and made things right.
Great minds think alike Eh!! I’ll be looking forward to it DK. I’m glad they got the darn thing replaced as well, one less thing to worry about. Have a great evening bud.
Thanks Scott! After the fry down, it revealed a really smooth BBS, so I think I’m on the right track by changing it up, and utilizing your short buffing pattern.
Makes sense if the leak was on the sidewall because the sidewall may have needed to be deformed a bit for it to leak. I'm the same as you with growth patterns, I literally have swirls in my growth on my cheeks and on my neck it goes a few different ways.
Yep, 100% definitely explains why they couldn’t find it, luckily they did though, because they were pretty perplexed as was I. Swirls suck don’t they? I ended up with a wicked BBS today after the fry down though, looks like this continuity might have some merit, so more testing is required!
Nice shave Justin! That scent sounds right up your alley. Love the sound of that one for sure. Glad you guys got the tire stuff situated! Great shave with that DE razor today and hope you enjoy your week!
Thanks Aaron! Oh heck yes, this one is right up my alley for sure, still wafting off me pretty strongly as well, love it. I’m glad the tire escapade is over with, now I can sleep in again lol. Have a great evening!
I’m glad we got that sorted too, was driving us nuts lol. This is one of my favourite scents in the den, so good! And heck yeah man, gotta try and bring content for everyone and this seems like a great way to start. Have a great rest of the week!
With all the choices available today, you can get a BBS without a barber. It's like being in a candy store where you can have chocolate and gummies. It's all about the experiences.
Yep, I agree 100%!! We are so lucky to have all the great things we have, and the vast wealth of knowledge available within social media to learn how to use it all.
Nice shave Jmac! The scent on that soap sounds wonderful! Pete also threw a pack of Statum blades in my last order, they are really good. They work well in all the razors I've tried them in, even my Fatboy which, for me, only a handful of blades feel good in it. Have a good one! Steve
Hey Steve! Yeah man, this is a great scent!! And really eh? That’s funny because I was planning ok putting a Statum in my Fatboy to try it in that razor…. Great minds think alike. Have a good one brother!
I think you got unusually good service, Justin. At a lot of places they would just mutter under their breath that you are a nut job and send you on your way.
Hahah, well, one guy did ask under his breath to the other tech if he checked the psi, and the other guy was like yeah, it’s down to 20 lbs… so you aren’t far off lol.
Nice shave JMac. Glad u got the tire leak figured out. I had a small window leak years back they couldn’t figure out on a past car. Took it back at least 4 times and nothing. Definitely flared up my ocd. I’ve been on a Karve CB kick recently going through my plates. B to E SB. B was too mild but B-OC was effective enough so that will stay. Great shaver. Noticed the Gillette plats are a Bit softer than the Nacets with the B OC. I’m going to run them both in the C SB tonight for the sake of science. May try a People s blade in there again at some point as I know they work well. From memory they are similar to a Gillette Plat. Btw - that soap sounds great but not available. Anything out there like it on a scent strength 6-7? Have a good one!
Thanks Chris, appreciate it. Car issues are definitely no fun, especially when they can’t fix the problem. Sounds like your getting some great shaves, and the blade experiment sounds like a good time, some good blades to work with there for ya. Off the top of my head I can’t think of any scents that are like this one, but I am planning ok working on something with an artisan, hopefully right at the first of the New Year that might tickle your fancy! Doesn’t hurt to keep an eye on the First Canadian IG page as well, this is one of his most popular scents, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he does a drop of it during the holidays.
LOL as adults we hate snow because bosses have no clue what snow is and expect you to be at work no matter how much falls to the ground. We don't get to play in it we have to try and not destroy our vehicles because our boss refuses to close for the day and keep their employees safe LOL.
Yeah, and all that too!! My wife is an essential worker, so unless it’s a blizzard out, she usually tries her best to get to work, usually it’s the opposite though, it’s fine when she goes to work, but starts storming when she’s there. I hate it.
Nice shave Justin, great gear for the shave today. Don't you hate having a slow leak in a tire, I have one on my truck that slowly leaks over time and they can't find the problem. Like I've always said when shaving, don't feel bad about feeling yourself up 😂😂 Have a great day Brother

Great shave, JMac! Always enjoy hearing your take on different scents!
Appreciate you Matt! This one’s a killer scent, can still smell it too, which is a great way to head to bed. Have a great rest of the week!
Great shave and idea about your shaving routine.
Thanks Scott! After the fry down, it revealed a really smooth BBS, so I think I’m on the right track by changing it up, and utilizing your short buffing pattern.
Jmac! Another classic shave in the books. Always enjoy your passion for content creation my man!
Appreciate it Kirk! I’ll be rolling out some cutthroat content on the weekends shave for ya too, got a nice one planned out. Have a great day brother.
I did a Tabac Tuesday on my Wednesday too, mate🤜🤛👊
Great minds think alike brother!!
Great shave as always Jmac! Glad y'all finally got that whole tire ordeal behind y'all. Can only imagine the headache that was.
Appreciate it Jacob! Yeah, it was a royal pain to be fair, I’m glad that’s one less thing to worry about now.
You are using two razors and here I am, using two blades simultaneously in one razor for the past four or five days; Focus Tritok R51 flat.
Hahaha there ya go! How’s that razor working out for you?
@@JMac. I think that I have cracked the technique for this one, aa I am getting fantastic shaves🤜🤛👊🏆🏆
@@leehaseley2164 glad to hear it brother!
That soap sounds amazing! Great shave bruddah!
Oh man, it’s so good! Always puts a smile on my face. Appreciate it brother, and here’s to a great weekend!

Great shave Justin! Must be a nice scent I love Sandalwood! Oh yeah!
Thanks Robert! And oh yeah, if you like cigar smoke, whiskey and cherry, than this is a must have… it’s so freaking good!
@@JMac. sounds really great.

Nice scrape, man. Ace of Spades sounds great. 👌 Take care and have a good one! 👍👊
Appreciate it Steve! It’s a great scent indeed, still smelling it as we speak, has some nice longevity. A good one to you as well brother!

Tire problems,…way of the road Bubbs. Way she goes.
Hahaha yep, way she goes indeed.
Superb shave, Justin!
You enjoy the rest of your week, mate. I am getting ready to go to the airport and fly to Vietnam for five days with my old man.
Nice shave JMac. Glad u got the tire leak figured out. I had a small window leak years back they couldn’t figure out on a past car. Took it back at least 4 times and nothing. Definitely flared up my ocd. I’ve been on a Karve CB kick recently going through my plates. B to E SB. B was too mild but B-OC was effective enough so that will stay. Great shaver. Noticed the Gillette plats are a Bit softer than the Nacets with the B OC. I’m going to run them both in the C SB tonight for the sake of science. May try a People s blade in there again at some point as I know they work well. From memory they are similar to a Gillette Plat.
Btw - that soap sounds great but not available. Anything out there like it on a scent strength 6-7?

@@JMac. ah that’s good to know- I’ll keep my eyes open. - thanks brother!
@@RonnieYates yessir! Im actually talking with a contact now about a soap set, you reminded me!
LOL as adults we hate snow because bosses have no clue what snow is and expect you to be at work no matter how much falls to the ground. We don't get to play in it we have to try and not destroy our vehicles because our boss refuses to close for the day and keep their employees safe LOL.

Great shave Jmac! Love the label of the soap! Been trying to decide which OC CB plate I want to order to try. Have a good one Broski!
Nice shave Justin, great gear for the shave today. Don't you hate having a slow leak in a tire, I have one on my truck that slowly leaks over time and they can't find the problem. Like I've always said when shaving, don't feel bad about feeling yourself up 😂😂
