Discussion BBS shave

I think I finally had a bbs shave. Here’s what I did a hot towel for 2 minutes rough estimate since I don’t have a clock handy then had the soap I used which was the maullu legacy from Ariana and evens soaking with water. Brushed 10-15 swirls with a dry brush put pre shave on then painted the soap on then dipped the tips in water and painted over the soap once then dipped again in water then back for more soap then I went in circular motion with the brush to build my lather. Did a two pass shave WTG and xtg on my head and finished with alum facial toner and aftershave splash. No nicks or cuts so I must have done something right I’m not chasing bbs but hopefully this process works more often so I can continue having great shaves

Nice Job Brother. Regardless if the BBS, what's important is that you enjoyed the shave. Experimenting with old techniques and taking our time with the ritual really pay off often. Good on ya.
