Said to myself “wow” when I saw your response in the brush category. Moving away from badgers in 2019?

Razor: I rotate through about 40 straights.
Brush: Rotate between a dozen Shavemac 2-Band Silvertip and D01 2-Bands
Soap: Grooming Dept, Wholly Kaw, or CRSW
After Shave: unscented splash and balm, allowing me to use the EdT of my choice.

I've never even thought of keeping track of any of this honestly. Maybe I should to see what I actually don't use.

When I first started tracking, it was mainly because I enjoyed setting up the excel sheet and various formulas. Plus, I wanted to see how many uses of a soap or AS it took before it was gone. But when I started tracking in 2018, seeing what wasn't being used as a big factor. Based on the results, I have about 20 soaps i'd like to get on the BST or ebay sometime in the near future. Some of the soaps that didn't get used are going to remain though...either because of their scent or they were a gift to me.

I've only used a badger maybe 1 or 2 times in all of 2018. For most of my shaves, it's been the razorock $10 synthetic....it just works well for me!

Our synthetic has seen way more FaceTime since we got them in.
