This is my first Austere August, and let me just say this concept goes against everything I believe in as it relates to my wetshaving journey. But, I’m also curious, and it’s been forever since I exerted any level of austerity, and 6 years in, I thought what the hey. Let’s fuckin do it.
So I’m basically going all out folks. What you see here is what I intend to use all month. Unless I give up or something 😅.
Notes
Brush is stiff as expected, here’s the splay post first shave. I couldn’t really smell the soap over the “hog” smell. So consider us off to the races!
Never really experienced harshness with this MMOC, it’s in really good condition. The challenge is gonna be the number of shaves on one blade. So I’m gonna try and take really good care of it, drying after the shave etc. Also gonna pace myself, just two passes daily no major cleanups or going for BBS. I’m pretty much there usual except trouble spots on neck.
Here go the formalities:
