Comments:
Two passes. I was very confident and I’ve received a little nick but not very important.
On the other hand, yesterday my son Oriol was for first time to the shooting club. His first experience was very positive. In 30 shots, only 2 were out of the target.




Have a nice day, gents

Very sweet, very smooth, shave. One might go farther........BBS on a level that transcends D.E. shaving! Eleven months of straight shaving and it finally all clicked into place.

I must stop now before I psych myself up to a level whereupon after tomorrows "normal" shave I shall be so utterly disappointed!

Monday

Razor: JM Scmhid & Son 6/8
Brush: Omega Boar
Soap: Institut Karite
A/S: Aqua Velva

Just another menthol Monday! Menthol is always a great way to start the work week, it perks me right up! I was actually going to use the Dovo this morning, but I was a little sleepy so I opted for the JM Schmid (which I'm pretty sure is a half-hollow) which is a little more forgiving than my other two razors. I did have to do a little touchup at the very bottom of the neck with a DE, but since I always shave a small bit (silver dollar sized spot of very thin hair on my balding head) on the front of my head with a DE, I didn't list it as part of the shave gear since it's role was minimal to the rest of the shave. Very good Monday morning shave with the Omega soap in the black tub topped off with Aqua Velva to wake me up for the work week.
