    I posted late. Anyway, 2 passes on my dome and face gave me an error-free BBS result.
    I like this soap a lot. Great residual slickness allowed me to buff so that I only needed 2 instead of 3 passes. Alum feedback was on the neck and parts of my dome. Did my usual post shave ritual. Take care

    Thanks, Joe.

    Interesting. I am starting to think that maybe I should switch from hot to cool/cold water pre-wash and shaving too. It may work better for me.

    You just might find that cold water shaves minimizes irritation and creates better results.

    1 day growth, carbon copy shave from yesterday. Nice and easy. Blunting blade being binned: needing 8 strokes per area just ‘aint cuttin’ it for me

    Only 20 swirls on the puck and 5 cc of water still resulted in ample amount of lather

    Woke up to a misty morning here in Perth, clearing by lunch time

    Quick 9AM haircut, followed by a visit to the Westfield Carousel mall and a coffee break with my wife

    Doesn’t get much better than that

    Have a lovely day guys and gals
