Notes: A lovely vintage shave today to celebrate Fat February.
I always enjoy the 1912 razor 🪒, it has one of the best decorated handles I have seen on a razor, as well as being a perfectly designed razor that looks and works as well today as it did over a 100 years ago.
My little Milk Churn brush produced a cracking lather with the MWF Tallow and that's not necessarily an easy thing to do with this soap but the brush made it a walk in the park.
A fantastic face and a head shave with my Leaf razor and the wife can't keep her hands off me.
Enjoy the night everyone.

Sunday Night Shave...
Second outing for the Pal Injectomatic and another really easy shave. It feels close but in control and dare I say it a little safer than DE razor shaving. What do I know two shaves in!
I have the green Proraso already but it's a little brutal for winter shaving and so I opted to try the white. Reviews said it had no obvious scent but to my nose it smells of freshly grated lemon zest. A very pleasant scent indeed. At some point, I shall get the red and try that one too. It's a good value and reliable shaving soap and worked well with the Semogue tonight.
I tidied up the back of my neck with the KCG after I shaved my head the other day. I'm getting much more proficient at this too.
Really pleased with this shave. Apologies for the weird coat of arms style photo...
