Still in. Due a shave today but can’t decide on which razor. Fatboy, Gillette SA, Mergress or EJDE89.
You are seriously one hell of a son. Living with a parent with dementia is tough. Good on you.Still in
I don’t mention my dad’s shaves but this morning is a little different. My dad has dementia and along with my mom has been living with us since the spring. Dad really hates electrics and multiblade carts. If he’s awake and coherent I shave him with an Astra SP and Feather AS-D2 and when he’s not I use a Sensor along with whatever software I use (except for the fart soap). By default he’s taking part in the GRUME along with me.
This morning he asked me to use that Italian green stuff. I honestly didn’t think he was with it enough to pick out stuff he likes. This is the first time he’s picked a preference other then no electric and no plastic. I ask him every time and he always says “You pick.” Proraso is the only Italian green stuff I have so today’s shave was:

Feather AS-D2
Astra SP (1 and done)

Bonus son of the year points for not using the farty soap on him. [emoji12]

My head is still sore from the fart soap and the Astra SP so I decided to play a game. King C Gillette's are the most expensive blades I own. I also have some Gillette Platinum Blues and Gillette Platinum Whites (???Swedes???). I'm going to alternate shaves with them while using PAA CK-6 base soaps and see if I can tell the difference.
