Notes: A much much better shave tonight with the type F.
It's probably down to having much better prep before shaving as well as being better acquainted with the razor.
The Tatara MURAMASA did a great job on my perfectly formed head.
Enjoy the night everyone.

Friday 3rd July...

Quite nervous today after last time's first proper slice under the lip. Switched down to the Derby Extra #1 which definitely felt less sharp but came at the cost of spending quite some time picking up all the left over spots. Had to leave the right lower lip as I couldn't even get to it with a razor because of how close/far it sat from the lip so had to use the electric razor to pick up that one spot. All clear and done.

The Muhle soap is very competent just not slick enough for my current place with the shavette. All done but cracking this lower lip now needs some thought.

Have a lovely Friday and weekend.
