    Great shave. Have a wonderful Fourth of July.

    I’m going to have a pancake brunch, with all the trimmings, on my deck. Reading Seattle Times on the net, and feeling a little homesick.

    Default Sunday 4 July - Congrats US!

    Pre: Hot/cold shower
    Razor: Joh. Engström
    Brush: New Forest, Superior badger 22 mm
    Soap: Omega
    Post: Proraso
    AS: Alcolado Glacial
    Result: My head´s on fire - what a nice shave!
    This new brush/brand is really nice, good for 2 1/2 passes on face + 2 passes on the head and I only loaded the brush for approx. 30 sec - I thought I would have to do it again when moving to the head. Alcolado is not for the faint harted, don´t get to close to the eyes when using this. Seriously, it will hurt . Really good blade on this razor, very smooth and sharp!
