    Sunday so I did the pre-shower scalp/hair soak. Mixed up some tea tree oil and olive oil mix. Soaked for ten minutes I'd guess. Shower with speick bar soap, body and hair, just cause.

    Shave:

    New to me English Gillette Tech, second shave with Astra blade
    TSD London Type
    Semogue boar brush
    Finish with house blend aftershave (tto,wh,blood orange eo, etc..)

    Not a bad shave. Tech is very mild ok with first shave yesterday. Noticed quite a difference today second time around. Let the blade go after the shave. Apparently this razor needs a ver sharp blade. Going back to the Parker tomorrow, me thinks....


    Decent, relaxed Sunday shave.
