Rooney Alibaba Twins !

[German]

Thanks to a friendly shaving member (on another forum) I was able to acquire the 2 Band twin of my Heritage 3 Band Alibaba Size 3.
First palm lather shows very soft - clumping and curly gel like - tips...
Exactly what I was looking for...

Different to the Heritage 3 Band there is also no glue bump. Seems like the perfect 2 Band knot... Below some pics:

That is lovely.

I have a Heritage 2-band Emillion that looks to have a similar knot profile. Palpably different in feel and performance from the Heritage XL series, even though they're using the same hair.

The XL series is much denser. Flow through on the Emillion/Alibaba is much better while providing a similar face feel at the tips. Also the early badges seemed to have been much softer. I have a Stubby 1 (and had a 1XL) of the early batch that are much softer than later batches. I sold an Emillion 2 for that reason.

That is lovely.

That two band knot is a thing of beauty. Congrats on the score.

They are Happy Together. No BS, I can hear the song playing in my head now.

Beautiful, German. Well done!
