Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend..

It's been some time since I last done a combined face & head shave with the FaTip Grande and forgot how smooth & efficient this razor is. After the second pass on my head shave I was BBS/dolphin smooth, one of the closest head shave's I've had for a long time. WOW!. The Personna blades are a great match for the Fatip Grande.

The Haslinger soap is a magnificent performer, it reminds me of MWF, Kent, + HWF which all contain lanolin what I instantly liked about it is it lathers up in no time without the addition of blooming creating a wonderful luxurious slick protective lather leaving a superb post shave feel.

An acceptable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off a with a few small dollops of Cien Aloe Vera Body Lotion.

My face & precious swede are both feeling super smooth and smelling divine.😉

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.😎

That shave was spot on 👍

With the great lather from the Le Père Lucien soap and AP G5C knot.
And the cap now rubbed down with 800 grit wet'n'dry. The razor just glides around my face.
