August 17th, 2025: AA Day 17

  • Brush: Proraso - Professional Boar
  • Razor: Weck - Sextoblade Med Prep
  • Blade: Fromm Hair Shaper
  • Lather: Mike's Natural Soaps - Vetiver - Soap
  • Post Shave: Catie's Bubbles - 322 - Aftershave

I really do think this blade is starting to lose its edge or I am just getting complacent with my lather. This one felt pretty rough and was glad when the shave was finished. Still waiting on this brush to stop eating lather too. Maybe I just need to load it to no end and see where that gets me.

Blade feels like it might be starting to tug a little bit, but still good. This brush is getting softer, but still needs a lot of soap.

Shave was a little rough today. Getting the angle right with the Weck is getting easier each day and at this point, I am glad I am using it for the month. I don't get perfect shaves with it, but it is pretty fun once you start to get the hang of it.

Today's shave was good. Was probably the first day where I wasn't digging vetiver since I had a pretty bad headache earlier, but I got through it. Brush is feeling even better know and I think the Fromm is getting even smoother somehow.

I’m looking forward to using I rich Moose again once AA is done

Two takeaways from using a Weck for two weeks now. I really disliked how heavy the scales are on this Med Prep, but I have learned to use it to my advantage by making very slight adjustments based on the area I am shaving and the angle of the razor. Another thing I learned if I need to make very small angle adjustments, I can tilt my head ever so slightly to adjust.

It felt good. The straight/Weck form factor is feeling a lot more natural
