Greetings,
(Face & Head Shave)
A relaxing cooling early morning face & head shave.
Starting off the month off with 1960's Gillette Slim Twist.
The 1960's slim twist was my first vintage Gillette DE razor which was kindly passed on to me by a friend of the family. I've said this on many occasions, it still amazes me that a 60-year-old + vintage razor can still shave so smoothly.
The Lord shark super stainless are a good match for the mild, yet efficient with the 60's slim twist feeling comfortable smooth & efficient.
Another close comfortable acceptable face & head shave with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Blue Stratos Original Blue ASL.
My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.
Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.
