First shave with this passaround brush from u/KerblimeySkal. It's a great boar brush, very similar to my Omega 10048 but lofted much lower.

I especially like how small the brush handle is. It makes it much easier to do a "barber pinch" at the base of the knot, which really helps with these knots in my experience.

Keeping it light on the fragrance this morning because of a dentist appointment (dentist --). I'll probably wear Lavender, Interrupted this afternoon.

Have a great day y'all.
