Sunday Shave No 2
Bengall 5/8Grant
Thayer's Witch Hazel
Nivea Balm
Pinaud Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum
My Brother in Law came over this afternoon.
He saw some of my razors and asked me if I could give him a shave, right then & there.
I've never shaved anybody before. To be honest it was kind of tricky, and very nerve wracking, but I was pretty happy with the result.
More importantly, so was he. He really seemed to enjoy the whole experience
