The Henson is just too light for me

Maybe a heavy handle would help?
Heavy enough so that the weight of the head wouldn't matter, even.

Friday 5 May
Epic shave this morning. The Løthur is something else! Scent and performance really really nice. Nearly 12 hours on and my skin still feels soft and refreshed. The £50+ Boss scent faded and the Lonny still there!

Up until today this has been the only A&E soap that hasn’t irritated my skin but today I felt that unwelcome tingle…
However, it was super slick and I’ve had a great shave this morning.

I didn't get on with even a single soap from A&E, from the several I tried. Luckily they were samples I got from a friend.

Thankfully I didn’t get that feeling from the next two shaves so hopefully it was a one-off as it nice to have a different soap to my, otherwise, ubiquitous B&M.

Beautiful shaving bowl. What is it?

Sorry for the late response. I missed this first time around. I bought the bowl on eBay and it originally looked like this:

Unfortunately, it began to discolor my soap, so I ended up soaking it to get all the dye out and then polished the outside with Minwax.
