Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend..

It's been some time since I last done a combined face & head shave with the FaTip Grande and forgot how smooth & efficient this razor is. After the second pass on my head shave I was BBS/dolphin smooth, one of the closest head shave's I've had for a long time. WOW!. The Personna blades are a great match for the Fatip Grande.

The Haslinger soap is a magnificent performer, it reminds me of MWF, Kent, + HWF which all contain lanolin what I instantly liked about it is it lathers up in no time without the addition of blooming creating a wonderful luxurious slick protective lather leaving a superb post shave feel.

An acceptable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off a with a few small dollops of Cien Aloe Vera Body Lotion.

My face & precious swede are both feeling super smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Top drawer soap & splash! Smells wonderful, cooling, and a creamy slick lather!
Decided to use this long-ignored shavette, my 1st foray into SR shaving back in 2019...cut myself badly back then using it, hahaha. Today...it was too easy...so smooth and very efficient and overconfidence caused a serious nick & a lined weeper...dang!

No shave for the last couple of days as I really wanted to keep to the Fat-February theme and MWF only got delivered yesterday. First time using MWF and this soap delivers. Super easy to lather and the result is a very dense, cushioning and slick lather. It has a subtle clean 'soapy' scent and a great post-shave feel. I didn't know what to expect but now I'm definitely looking forward for the rest of February.

Saturday 3rd February

The Leaf Thorn has been a revelation, delivering a perfect shave with ease. I previously had the basic Twig version but it was too mild for me so it has been moved on.
I pressed half of the London Bridge into use and it didn’t disappoint even on its 4th use. Bbs in one main sweep plus atg pick ups. Love the distinctive smelling and smooth soap, its scent still lingers in the bathroom after several hours.
Have a very enjoyable weekend fellas!
