The Ambassador struggled with >24hrs growth, particularly with the grey hairs in the Van Dyke area of my stubble.
I also experienced the drag others have mentioned.
I'll turn it up to four tomorrow and hopefully this'll rectify both issues.
Have a great Sunday.

Yesterday’s shave. After a rather ‘moist’ last night, I doubt there will be one today :yuck:

Terrific shave ‘twas, with Eufros Dama de Noche soap and balm, Paradigm 17-4, APShave SilkSmoke and a spray of Clive Christian 1872 (with a refresh later). From this one use, longevity wasn’t an issue @flashashton27, and it’s a great fragrance :okay:

Shave Soap: MWF

Catching up after a hectic day yesterday. Shopping followed by indoor go-karting as part of our future son-in-law's stag do (light), toned down for Dads and uncles. Great fun but a bruising experience, then on to the evening meal and drinks. I left the young lads to it later in the evening.

Fine shaves, today's even better than yesterday's. Everything simply came together for a cracking shave. I'm dolphin smooth and ready for a more relaxing day.

Happy Father's Day.

Regards,
Chris

Well, after a surprise (birthday) pyjama party yesterday from my kids, I woke up with breakfast in bed for the father's day.
This was an exclusive daddy's weekend, so a shave to be extra fresh was ideal. :cool:

Pre: A nice warm bath
Soap: Hasslinger Calendula (tallow, I don't know if this one changed).
Brush: A really good broken Omega 10065
I tortured this brush so much that feels like best badger tips on a boar backbone.
Futur @2.5 - 1.5 with a polsilver super iridium on it
Asl: Avon Black Suede

A nice BBS, a strong ASL and steaks at the BBQ with Tsipouro as "pre"! :notworthy:
