Aug. 2, 2022 - Take two

Prep: Warm water wash
Brush: Zenith B33 Copper Boar Brush
Razor: GEM Micromatic Open Comb
Blade: Persona GEM PTFE Coated (2)
Lather: House of Mammoth - 福 (Fu Dao) - Soap

Fragrance: House of Mammoth - 福 (Fu Dao) - Eau de Parfum

This was a quick shave, I was running a little late.

The brush did shed 3 hairs today. The brush smelled good, until I soaked the brush. Then it was back to its stinky-self. The brush has a pretty strong backbone, more than I prefer and more than any of the Badger brushes I have used. It eats up soap pretty quick. The way it holds water is different too. It seems to keep the water in the base of the brush and does not want to load soap into the part of the knot, closest to the handle.

I think this shave could have easily been accomplished with just a single ATG pass; however, for fake internet points I did two passes.
