This was unexpected. After discovering the Iridiums and finding Med Preps were even better, I decided to load the Feather blade that came with the Feather Popular I had in the back of my drawer.
The lucky razor that I chose: the excellent Yaqi Mellon. This hidden gem is a SLOC, a mild shaver that actually delivers an intens BBB while head shaving. The BIC Platinum, the Iridium and the Med Prep all perform superb with the Mellon.
Every time I change something in my gear, I use my trusted soap, the best by far for me: the Fine Accoutrements Snake Bite.
First pass: WTG. Very nice. Second pass: XTG: hands down for the Feather. BBB just as good as the Med Prep. And then it happened. While doing the touch up behind my ears I heard that scratchy sound of hair being shaved. I thought I had missed a patch while inspecting my head for spots to give a touch up. It surprised me, because my scalp looked and felt smooth while inspecting it with my fingers. Then I tried another part of my seemingly bald scalp. Suddenly I realised the Feather and the Mellon could go another mile. And they did. That lovely scratchy sound all over again. Leaving my scalp soft as silk.
Needless to say I was flabbergasted at what the Feather can do. No other blade could rival this performance.
I didn't think much of this blade. Thought it might be another overhyped thing. The Feather has made me stand corrected and I bow for this extraordinary masterpiece.
Nothing more to say. I'll just spend the rest of the evening enjoying going over my balded dome. Again and again.
