Thread: First full straight shave, and first three star michlin restaurant today!

Today we are celebrating my 26th birthday, I'm a sushi chef and love food, so we are going to The Restaurant at Meadowood. For my first time eating at a restaurant of this caliber I thought it would only be apropriate to give myself a full shave with my new Boker King Cutter.

Showered and prepped with conditioner
Pre shave: cremo shave cream
Cream: the art of shaving inscribed cream whipped till buttery smooth
Razor: King Cutter honed by Lynn 40 passes on my strop
Alum
Astringent: thayers with aloe
ASB: the art of shaving ASB

Did a full with the grain pass, and across the grain on my cheeks, I've never had such a comfortable shave in my life, I love this already and can't wait to get more razors, hones, strops, soaps...uh oh...

Can't wait for dinner, hope everyone had a shave as good as I did today

Congrats and Happy Birthday!!

Looks like your having a hell of a birthday, enjoy yourself... and better put aside some birthday money for your new obsession

Thank you guys, and I must say if anyone lives anywhere near northern california must go to the restaurant at meadowood, every bite I ate (4 courses and ~10 mini courses) was better than anything else I've ever eaten. Simply sublime.

I don't think saving birthday money is enough for this shaving obsession, I need to start working even more than the 65 hours a week I already do!

Cheers,
