Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A relaxing early morning face & head shave.

A great cooling performance from the Ingram Shave Cream.

The Vie-Long horse hair brush performed superbly. I find that with horse hair brushes painting on the lather gives the best shaving results when using shaving creams or croaps.

Another close comfortable acceptable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Blue Stratos Original Blue ASL.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

TABAC Shaving Soap & After Shave

My first shave with this new razor.
It's based on the 1950's HD 34C design. I was unaware it had changed. This one is more efficient, so I don't know why it was ever changed. It's a really great razor that's a limited edition and silver plated. It didn't say how limited it would be.
