Barber shop shave today in Coevorden, the Netherlands
More and more barber shops are opening their doors these days in the Netherlands so I decided to have a barber shave, first in my life, today. I asked him to use my 7/8 Friodur, one of my sharpest razors.

Shave cream applied to my face. He uses ready for use shave cream by Suavecito that he pastes onto the skin.

The shave. Friodur is pulling a bit. It never pulls when I shave with it, so that must be the difference in skin prep. IMHO it is the shave cream being pasted rather than rubbed onto the skin as I do. He finished the shave with a DE, he didn't want to run the risk of irrititating my skin with a shavette. Next time I'll let him use his own tools.
He finished with Suavecito vanishing cream. Nice cooling cream. Afterwards a little razor burn and skin irritation below the jawline that vanished within an hour. I don't want to blame him as he was using a razor he was not familiar with.
