Wow! First time I can say I'm totally content with the result. Can get better on the neck (that seems to be my problem with the str8) but overall it was really good! Nothing is ever perfect though.. got my first nick too Had to break out the "Rasierstift" to stop the bleeding, first time I've ever used it, gave me a nice sting.

Sorry to hear that Johan , for me its the chin area that is troublesome , the neck is dead easy so are the Cheeks, if the chin wasnt so hard id probably do str8 shaving fulltime its just so much more fun and the shaves are closer.

 

Sunday:

Omega Silvertip
Parker 91R/new Sharp

wow, this MP soap is something every soap lover should have--really nice scent, great lather, and very gentle to a sensitive skin. The Max Disinfecting a/shave has a classy scent, and leaves the skin feeling great.

 

I still consider myself lucky, this far and just a nick :happy108 Since I've heard stories about people bleeding and cutting their ears etc I can't really complain . I think the problem partly lies in that the beard on my neck grows in all directions, no constant line to follow.

*I sent JoAnna an empty wooden Kent soap bowl and asked her to fill it with half Bay Rum and half Patchouli. Today was my first shave with it...OUTSTANDING!!! Sooo much better than what came in the bowl in the first place!! And at 1/4 the price! Great scent, great lather, great shave! Thanks, Luv!!
