    Good shave, PierPaolo! I never shaved my face with a cart. The one time I used one on my dome (Omnishaver) I developed ingrown hairs on th back of my head. Glad it works for you!

    Great shaves, Matt! Stay safe and healthy! Sounds like an interesting soap. Refined Shave testing put thr Bic third in sharpness after the Feather and Nacet, but did give it a #1 rating for longevity on maintaining sharpness.

    I really needed this long weekend to recharge my batteries. I went with the the MR EE #4 today. This handle is just fantastic with great ergonomics and grip. Such a brush demands face lathering and the # 4 did a wonderful job whipping up a rich slick lather. I admit I am beginning to like the cream more with continued use. The scent is still light but the performance is very good. Three passes and touch ups ended up with a BBS shave but I caused a couple of weepers. A splash of Santal Absolut and I am off to a client site for the day. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

    Thanks, Gents.

    Some decades ago, I had lots of troubles.
    After I learned the right technique with classic wetshaving.
    Today there is no problem.
    I can shave with all kind of razors.

    Maybe if You try again, You'll see things are changed.
    They normally do ...

    Well good.....keep up the success and you'll be free to roam around your house which is almost IN the woods. I've been doing OK thanks. PT has resumed(balance&gait). It's time to step up the pace at the gym, even if I do breathe into a mask.

    Well, a much better shave today. I did begin with the Mach 3, but once again the manager called the bullpen to get the Sensor Deuce warmed and ready to come in. That Sensor has become ONE with me-can't explain it any other way. 0:30 to load the Maggard. A weird thing happened-the brush sort of "straightened itself out" which, to me, called for some more loading(that is, in addition to the 30). I spent a little more time spreading the Stoylin soap than I have in the past. I began with the Mach, but it just wouldn't do much penetrating(not to my liking anyway). The Sensor Deuce saved me again(as earlier indicated). No cuts, no Knicks. I was especially careful going over yesterday's cut, and thought for a second it was going to get worse, but it ended up OK. I killed off the section of Cactus Nation that I missed yesterday. The Clubman Gent's Gin was a nice finisher. A good partner for the Stoylin Glacial Electric Sheep soap. Super Duper Excellent.
