Yep, we are on Instagram and are having a blast. In fact, because of the amazing support for REELS (videos) and stories, Instagram has become an integral part to our daily/weekly publication. See below to get an idea of what we covered in the last little while.

LATHER TEST

Here is how the @veteransoap Moulin Rouge soap does with a touch of water.

It's a nice thick lather and perfect lubrication.

I am in the habit of using less soap as I am only shaving the neck and top cheeks.

COMMENT: Another beautiful soap by Veteran with a refined and manly fragrance. It lathered a bit differently than Moulin Rouge. I probably had too much water in my brush, but impressive none the less.

I am put to the challenge to pair it correctly with an aftershave and turned to the Ivory bergamot by Suavecito for this shave.

COMMENTS: The Moulin Rouge soap was on the test bench and what a soap it turned out to be. The thickest lather I have experienced to date. Excellent coverage and lubrification and that sexy sweet aroma. A joy to shave with.
•
Since Veteran Soaps couldn't ship the companion aftershave to Canada I turned to a comparable level of sweetness with the Black Cherry by Lathr.
•
It felt like it had been a while since I used my Merkur 23C so I pulled it out. This is the safety razor that got me to convert to the double edge way.
•
All'n all, an amazing shave that I will repeat tomorrow morning.

HITTING THE BINS "Le Cédé troqué" in Gatineau

HITTING THE BINS

"Le Cédé troqué" in Gatineau (Hull).

This shop has been in business since the late 90's if memory serves me right.

As of late I have been going over at least once a month looking for records and always manage to find something that was on my list.

The shop carries new vinyls as well as used (recent arrivals and un-organized ones).

There is also a huge inventory of CDs.

Pricing is very reasonnable.

As mentioned, if you don't mind digging there is also an enormous amount of un-organized records at bargain prices.

Spin those records

• Black Knight
• Moulin Rouge

The aromas are appropriately gauged where Black Knight has a darker mysterious vibe and Moulin Rouge is sweet and sensual.

Can't wait to do a lather test and shave with these beauties.

Which one should be first?

After a week of showing a delivery time of "tomorr

After a week of showing a delivery time of "tomorrow", the Canada Post tracking site is now showing a more accurrate state of affaires.

Considering that my item is not associated to a "do or die" situation, it's just annoying. I feel for folks waiting for serious life stuff.

While the Canada Post strike continues, other players are picking up the business.

This is not an opinion on the strike or the rights of postal workers, just an observation on how the market is reacting.

WHAT!?!?

Did anyone else notice this little nugget of information that Instagram just slide in?

Personaly, I find this to be disappointing since the whole tagging solution is a great way of cataloging things.

What are your thaughts on this?

THINGS ARE STUCK With the Canadian Postal Workers

THINGS ARE STUCK

With the Canadian Postal Workers having gone on strike last Friday, mail that had entered the postal workflow is now stuck.

The tracking system has been saying "tomorrow" since last Friday. 😫

This is not an opinion on the strike, just an end customer waiting for his parcel.

Mrs. Style4men and I had a great time catching up with JB and meeting new friends.

Seeing a small shop be born, grow and adapt is what we all want to see.

Congradulations on your amazing last 5 years. The next 5 are clearly gonna be just as exciting.

5 YEARS ANNIVERSARY

@dillingers_mtl is celebrating its 5th anniversary. In this day and age, this is a big deal and we couldn't happier for them.

I met JB about 4 years ago and and we forged a friendshop from a shared passion for all things "Barbershop".

Over the years, the shop has grown and changed, but remained a unique and authentic spot.

Here's to another 5!!!

The proper walkthrough video will be published tomorrow.

MY NEW VINYL DESTINATION

I was looking for a vinyl edition of @depechemode Music for the masses and came across @popmusicto

They had the best price and very reasonnable shipping in Canada. In fact, even cheaper and faster than amazon.

I had been looking for a Canadian record store destination and it looks like I have found it.

Happy spinning!

Today and every day, we remember you, our fallen

Today and every day, we remember you, our fallen

May the horrors you had to endure never come to be again

But at every turn, the demons of humanity call on us

Greed, lust, envy, fear, corruption

If only you, the fallen of the last wars could speak to those planning the next

If only we could learn from our disastrous ways

and put our ingenious minds to work for the betterment of our species

With every new conflict we inch closer to our end

When will we learn?

BEARD BALM OF THE DAY @proraso Wood & Spice Love

BEARD BALM OF THE DAY

@proraso Wood & Spice

Lovely texture/Easy to work it and blend in.

The fragrance has a classic construction and strong projection. More than one would expect for a beard balm.

Great beard soothing properties.

I got my bottle at @botteganicastro in Ottawa.
