Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend...I can't recall the last time that I used the Parker 92R, which provided me with a close efficient shave.

The Williams Mug Shaving Soap provided a good slick performing lather leaving an excellent post shave feel. It's always a pleasure to use Williams which is sadly no longer made.

The Indian Gillette guard continues to mow through my head stubble with effortless ease.

A close comfortable face and head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Boots Freshwood ASB.

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

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

If this brass Shield AC1 isn‘t my best purchase in 2024 then there has got to be some impressive sh*t coming. I also find €55 delivered to be incredible value.

These Aion soaps are great if you use enough product, but you really do need a massive amount when using natural hair brushes. I have enough soaps, but still I dislike using so much soap (approx 3,5g) at once. I have considered using them with just synths going forward, lets see…
