You have spoken: the community shave will take place on July 17th (the 3rd Wednesday of July)!
But we still have to pick to soap. Every soap will get their own comment, and if you want to vote for this soap, please comment below the soap nomination with something indicating your approbation. You can vote for several soaps; in case of a tie, we will figure something out.
We have a winner, and it’s a mentholated soap for July!

The soap was proposed by @[email protected]. We need to make sure he knows our addresses, so that he can send the smushes out. (If there is someone on the other side of the pond with some Don José, we could maybe share the burden).
~I translated ranks into numbers: 7 points for the highest rank, and down to 1 point for the last ranked element). Anyways, I don’t believe that the precise way of calculating have any importance here; the results seem rather clear~
Of course we picked the most expensive soap which is banana scented.
Obviously – we may be monkeys, but sophisticated ones 🙄
Hello, I have everyone’s address except for @[email protected] (unless the others moved since our last correspondence).
So if that concerns you or you are Walden, please pm me your details and i and off the smushes (ideally on the linked matrix account)
Shall we also send smushes to @[email protected] and @[email protected]?
I’ve already reached out to pudding about his address, and maybe @[email protected] can send dave a smush since they are in the same country and he has a tin and offered he could help
Absolutely, just PM addresses for anyone who still needs a smush.
I’m really sorry that I missed your comment!
PM is on the way, I’d gladly partake 👍🏻
No worries, I’m just glad you’re joining the shave next month!
It’s not my case, but FYI I don’t see a linked matrix account for you, contrary to @gcgallant.
Huh! Must have gotten deleted during our db shenanigans! Fixed now
I’m glad you said something, looks like mine isn’t linked anymore either.
Fixed now.
I don’t know if mine is visible; if not: how do you link a matrix account?
Edit: Found it!

Abbate Y La Mantia: Don José
1st ranked vote. I have not tried an AYLM soap and would like to try one even though this one has menthol.
3rd ranked
1st ranked vote.
I have a different AYLM soap and the scent is very interesting. I’m guessing his other scents are good, too.
Third-ranked vote
@[email protected] I’m unpinning this post now. Once everyone gets their smushes and the event draws near we’ll pin a new one.
Sure, thanks!
Barrister and Mann: Roam Two
2nd ranked vote. Ideally, I’d like to stay away from the well-known US artisans, and try artisans that may not be as well known on r/Wetshaving.

Heads-up, the Swiss Post somehow shit the bed with the samples. Usually it takes one week for a letter from here to the US and I’ve sent the samples to @[email protected], @[email protected], and @[email protected] on July 3rd, but they stayed in Zürich for a week and only reached US customs yesterday. I’m sorry about that.
I’m not sure whether they’ll make it to you in time. If not, I propose that we wait for everyone to have their sample and postpone the inaugural BVWSC. Thoughts?
I’ll send you your individual tracking info in PM.
Also tagging @[email protected], @[email protected], and @[email protected], so that we can all agree.
Hopefully, they will move quickly, but I’ve no issues with waiting for everyone to get the soap.
🙏
