A Note on Shaving

Back to basics

I’m writing this on a Sunday.

On Sundays, I sleep in just a bit — until 7 AM.

And, I attend a local church service — less than 2 minutes from where I live.

On Sundays, I shave using Barbasol — the shaving cream of my youth:

During these Sunday shaves, I typically ponder a full return to Barbasol — or, an embrace of the shaving brush and safety razor approach I loved in my late 30s.

Perhaps a combination of both.

In case you’re wondering: On weekdays and Saturday, I use Harry’s shaving cream and a Harry’s razor.
