Bearded No More

Published on March 31, 2007 By MasonM In Blogging

i finally gave in to the call of the badger bristle shaving brush, imported shaving soap, and double edge Merkur Slant. I shaved off my beard.

I did keep my Fu style moustache though. Don't want to get too carried away. I look more like my old self now, and several years younger.

But my face is cold.

As my beard had grown quite long and thick it was a real bear to remove even after trimming it down with scissors first. I didn't get the closest shave I've ever had but after not shaving for several months I didn't want to abuse my skin too much. It's a reasonable shave and looks decent if I can feel that it isn't perfectly smooth. I made sure to use an ample amount of balm afterwards so that the skin doesn't get irritated from the unfamiliar shave.

Ah well, it's only hair and I can grow it back whenever I want. there's always next Winter.

You look good, and yes, younger too.

BTW, I really like your eyes. Very handsome features there. The cap's cool too.

Testing to see if the upload of a pic worked. I've tried for months with no luck. Hope you don't mind Mason. You can delete this if it doesn't work - or even if it does.
