    Hi poppi, I just finished 6 shaves with Bunny. I`m 80. You are correct, the Mild is easier on this old skin, but think about an ATG 1st (carefully) and then everything is like having the wind at your back, just plain joyful. Just a suggestion on my part. Good luck the rest of the way, Bunny will grow on you, it just keeps getting better.

    I cut half DE razor blades with the width of 7-8mm as you can see from the picture. To unlock the mechanism I use the tip of scissors.

    Back at home after days of lousy shave stick lather and shaves. What a joy to pick up my Eddison Floating Head (an Israeli label for Personna) and lather up with some nice Castle Forbes. :)If you don't have a floating head razor you should get one. With a twin blade they are super smooth, super easy to maneuver, and provide a super close shave with zero drama. I absolutely loved today's shave. Long live the floating head. :happy036:

    Great shave last night. The Stirling soap is excellent and very refreshing. This is definitely one of my favorite scents. The aftershave is more sweet lime than tequila which I enjoy. Lather was great and extremely slick. Post shave was also very good. Great menthol Monday combo and I really enjoy it. Have a great day!

    One of my all-time favourite frigid setups which is guaranteed to put icicles in a man's face, and make his eyes cry "tears of joy" is he's a Krazy Menthol Monkey like I am. The Plissoft brush makes that Glacial Wintergreen soap produce bone-chillingly cold lather porn, the matching balm and witch hazel feel so wonderful afterwards. The Junjie is a pretty damned good razor - not a bad buy at all for three bux and some change! ;) :D

    Yes .. let me get a couple more shaves under my belt and i will post a review. If the first shave is any indication the ATT S2 is going to give my Blackbird a run for it's money .. i hate using the term BBS nor do i attempt to get one each time i shave but let me say after only 2-passes this morning with the ATT S2 i was very near BBS and it seemed so effortless and left me with ZERO irritation or even a tiny weeper .. even on my sensitive neck area.
    I really don't ever remember having this good of shave with any razor for the first time using
    I give it major :happy088: so far and will report back later .. definitely leaving it on the top shelf of my den next to the Blackbird
