New Shaving Hardware

Many misinformed folks think that growing a moustache is all about growing.  But in reality, it is equally, if not moreso, about shaving.  Without the shaving aspect, you just end up with a beard.  And let's face it, that can simply happen out of sheer laziness.  Growing a mean moustache is not a lazy man's game.
I believe that if you are going to take the time to shave, you may as well do it right.  This means having the right soft-goods and hardware.  Specifically, I'm going to address the shaving bowl today.   Sure, you can lather on a puck of hard soap, or apply a nice shaving cream directly to the brush and your face.  However, you can absolutely never go wrong with a great bowl. Foolproof lathering!
I acquired an awesome bowl recently, and it was from a Movember supporter, no less.  For the month of Movember, Leslie at The Mud Place is offering discounts on her awesome pottery when you use the code MOVEMBER.  http://www.themudplace.com/
Here's the bowl I just received.  You can see how substantial it is relative to the Mekur 34C razor, and the largest shaving brush in my collection, the Morris & Forndran Blonde Badger.  This is a substantial mug with excellent attention to detail.




I've got my eye on one of those great looking scuttles next. The Big Daddy is a thing of beauty! http://www.themudplace.com/index.php/component/mijoshop/product/207-big-daddy-shaving-scuttle-bowl-in-green-iron-red-brown-made-to-order

Show some love for this Mo Sista!
