    Almost forgot to post today. Still drudging through the Weck shaves. Gotta hunker down and get through the next few days of August.

    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.

    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.

    Today was probably my first auto pilot shave where I just did it and did not think about it.

    Shave was okay. Not great, but not horrible. Hardest part of this challenge so far is just writing up a proper SOTD with picture everyday.

    If I can maintain these satisfactory shaves for the rest of the month, I will be a happy camper. Everything is going well right now. $Rawhoggin $monthofmikes $headless

    Another dAAy, another decent shave. No blood loss, no complaints about the Weck as of right now. u/EldrormR said that after a few shaves the Fromm blades get buttery smooth and I think I finally hitting that sweet. My growth is sparse so it makes sense that it would take a few more days. The brush is eating lather like the hungry hog it is. Happy Friday.

    Repeat of yesterday. Weck is feeling good, brush is softening up, and vetiver smelling great. Glad things are looking up, but I don't wanna get too comfy and slip up.

    I hope today signifies a turning point for me. I am not sure what changed, but the Weck and Fromm blade felt so good. I had hardly any feedback from the splash and the brush is feeling absolutely fantastic now. All I can say for today is hell yeah.

    I would be lying if I said I was enjoying this Weck. It certainly works, but the novelty is already wearing off. I'm hoping a in a few more days the blade will start smoothing out. $Rawhoggin $monthofmikes $headless $discord
