I decided to do an above-the-shoulder shave today. I was going to do a headshave video this week, but I got lazy. I haven't done a straight/shavette headshave in awhile and I never used the Parker to do one. I needed the practice.

Anyway, I am continuing the hot water/ bowl lathering method because I am not in a hurry this morning.
I posted a picture of the lather on my face so there really isn't any need to describe it. Honestly, I reallly was done after one pass, but I am a 2 pass shaver so I finished my passes with a nice near BBS with very little touchup. There was not any mishaps whatsoever
Did my normal postshave routine and I was happy with the face shave.

As previously mentioned, I have never used the Parker shavette to do a headshave. I must say, I had a little difficulty because I am used to my Dovo shavette. I did 2 passes, but it was hard getting the right angle for the contours of my head for this razor. I attribute it to never using it for a headshave. I will have to practice headshaves to get a better feel for this razor. I will do the headshave video with my Dovo shavette soon. Anyway, I used my Schick E3 to finish the headshave. Slight irritation on the back, but I attribute it to never using the Parker for a headshave. Again, finished with the same postshave routine as the face. Have a great day guys!

 

Awesome score Danny!

 

Great shave Danny!

 

She was obviously flying first class. Those birds dont have that kind of leg room in economy

 

Classy shave and an awesome score on the brush Danny

 

Fantastic lineup and shave Joe

 

Excellent shave Barry. The Ever-Ready vintage razor is an excellent shaver. I have the 1912.

 

Excellent shave Dave. I give up, you win. I don’t like this game. Hopefully you get your septic issues resolved soon

 

Another beauty Pierpaolo.

Wonderful shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum.

Beautiful sunny morning. 46° and no wind. I made breakfast out on the griddle. Bacon, eggs and our version of hashbrowns. What a fun way to cook.

Rain and snow mix coming in this afternoon. The nice weather was fun while it lasted.

Have a great day!
