Greetings,


A wonderfully relaxing Williams Superlather sunday face & head shave.


A welcoming return of the Gillette ball-end tech which has been out on loan to work mate of mine who returned it to me last week along with my aluminum handle gillette after loaning them for a long time. This is what happens when you have far too many shaving items, you forget what you have and unintentionally neglect them without noticing.

Maiden head shave with the Gillette ball-end tech which i found very comfortable for head shaving really good for reaching the "awkward back of my head blindspot areas",as with every razor i use when i head shave i rub my fingers with a alum block which gives the handle of the razor a firm grip without the fear of it slipping from my hand and slicing my precious swede to pieces.

A comfortable 3 pass + pick ups near bbs face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Creightons ~ Sensitive Post Shave Balm.

My face & head are feeling comfortably smooth, cool & smelling 'old school' devine.;)

Enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen.:cool:
