Shaved today with my Max-imized C-Mon restore that you might have seen pics of in the Gallery at one point.
I gotta say, did nothing out of the ordinary, my shower, pre-lather, strop, then lather and shave. but had started out with my torrey. but I had three days of growth, and the torrey seemed to be having a bit of trouble. So I decided to grab a different razor.
I hadn't shaved with the c-mon since it cut me the first time. just had me scared. but it looked good sitting there. I took it in and started shaving. was already in it when I realized I hadn't stropped. didn't matter, smoothest, easiest shave ever!!! I didn't even need to go ATG on my cheeks, WTG got them smooth as butter. HAHAHAHA!!!! Set my tone for the whole day. I'm amped up, great mood.

PS
thanks max!!!
