30.01.2025 - Ghosts and Barbers

  • Brush: RazoRock Beehive 28 mm
  • Razor: Leaf Thorn
  • Blade: Perma-Sharp half DE
  • Lather: Chiseled Face - Ghost Town Barber
  • Post-Shave: HAGS - Barberwood AS toner

-> single pass head shave. Need to give the face some well-deserved rest. Good shave overall.

Today was a really slow but nevertheless exhausting day for me. I feel like I am more fatigued by slow, dragging days than high energy ones. This shave was a nice comfortable affair to improve my mood and the two barbershop scents fit together splendidly.

Tomorrow is the last day of nursing school, thankfully. Everything is pretty annoying atm and all that sitting on my ass is getting to me. Neck pain, back pain, headaches from the constant listening and cramming huge topics into my head one day before a test. On Sunday I will start my first run of night shifts - even though the "graveyard shift" usually has a negative connotation, I look forward to it. I'm a night owl so I should feel right at home, but I'm still curious how it'll feel!
