SOTD WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 29, 2021
Looking forward to three days of bachelorhood as SWMBO is going to a conference for the next three days. I plan on being a rather fragrant fellow, although not to the extent of some of my fraghead shave brothers.
The F. Herder 49 15/16 delivered its usual excellent mug shave, although after shaving with the nimble little 4/8 Swedish razors over the course of the last three days did feel a bit awkward and clumsy in hand at first. Nevertheless, three passes later all was right with the world.
The Eclipse Red Ring is such a deceptively efficient little dome shaver. One of the early twist handle adjustables, it delivers one of the closest noggin shaves of any of my safety razors. And today was no different. Two ATG passes left your happy narrator velveteen smooth from the shoulders up.
RAZOR: F. Herder 49 15/16 (Mug), Eclipse Red Ring (Dome)
BLADE: Kai DE (3)
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a scrub with Argan Oil
