Notes to this shave: |
General - nice relaxing face and head shave. Back of my head feels baby smooth with LOTH seal of approval. Blade deserves double digits so up for bat again tomorrow.
Razor and blade - I have tried the Fatip cap together with the Matador baseplate and that works like a charm with excellent equal blade alignment. Haven’t shaved with that combination yet, but bound to. Or I might give the Old Type cap a go. Blade gave a fabulous performance on both face and head.
Brush and lather - Hybrid lathering using my usual routine combined with Marco’s method. Luscious lather was my part. Face lathering was again fun today. Good lather with nice protection. I do have the sense that with face lathering I have less soaking in time than I do bowl lathering.
Technique - Same as yesterday. Excellent three passes to smoothness and desired results without issues. I would not say autopilot, but close to it.
Enjoy your shave!
