August 1st, 2022: AA Day Numero Uno
And so it begins, the month of Texas Stink Pig Massacre and Stag.
My prep started months ago when I purchased my stag trifecta and the CF natural balm, along with the infamous tub of Banana soap I immediately started killing. Before that I had purchased a gen 1 MMOC to partake in it's AA challenge. Last month with the help of /u/EldrormR and /u/djundjila I was able to secure this gorgeous Rubberset 400-3 that Eld restored and DJ provided the knot for.
I set out all my gear and then remembered I was missing something... I promised Eld that I would do an unboxing video and the idea seemed to excite him, I will save the surprise and let you all experience it as I did, with a little video recording of the occasion! Thank you Eld for putting this amazing brush together for me and for the surprise 😁
As for the shave, I recorded a video at 5:20ish this morning of my shave, my first "public" wetshaving video! /u/mrtangerinesky encouraged me to continue doing videos after seeing my LG content so I figured AA would be a good start! Video link here Hopefully y'all enjoy!
Luckily my unbleached Zenith didn't seem to be as bad as others, as the smell didn't knock me on my ass when I got the knot wet. A couple hairs were shed during the shave, which is to be expected, and efter all was said and done I sniffed the brush and was greeted with some strong (but not killer) pig stink. Looking forward to see if the Stag overpowers the pig over the course of the month!
I will add brush break in pics when I get home, and my stag EdP sprays are at the end of my video here. (I need to check the atomizer when I get home!)
