Notes to this shave: |
Summary - Amazing head shave with the Schick Injector. Wow! Followed up by an equally wonderful face shave with the Greencult 1.0.
Razor and blade - Both giants in their own right these two razors. The G1 was super effective on my head with just two passes to an almost allround BBS while the GC1 delivered a very effective shave on the face. The Schick may just have dethroned the Razorine as most effective head shaver (which is already a close call with the Karve). The GC1 doesn’t get to dethrone any razor as it doesn’t have to - it’s in a league of its own. Blade continues to deliver.
Brush and lather - The Roma is supposedly knotted with Evo hairs which I would know because I don’t have one, but if it is than this brush punches above its weight. Which it also does without this additional non-knowledge.
Technique - Neck first and everything the same from there on. I have done a jaw line touch up pass the last couple of shaves and I must say it helps me to put less effort into the three passes and therefore a milder shave because I am not trying too hard. I will revisit my WTG pass to check if I can up the ante.
Enjoy your shave!
