Before shave (oops got it wet) and After

Oops, forgot a dry picture of the brush. The second I got it wet, it hit me I hadn’t taken the picture. It was still damp from yesterday’s shave though.

It is my daughter’s first day of 3rd grade. She woke me up before heading to the bus. Tried to sleep a bit more, but ended up getting out of bed instead of hitting snooze until I absolutely have to get up.

Since I’m up and don’t have to rush, I can get in an early shave today. Start to shave and, whoa not as bad as yesterday. Oh yeah, I shaved after work, only 14 hours of stubble. Basically, an ok shave today, but if I shave after work tomorrow, the grabby blade will be back. Looking over the brush today and the darker patina near the knot is getting blue and maybe will go to verdigris soon. That surprised me today. I thought it would be a long time at the old penny stage of patina. I guess the extra water exposure and perhaps the soap are speeding up the process.
