Back to the WILD comb & no razor burn. Very nice shave (both sides of my face!)
 
My fourth attempt with the straight, no cuts and no irritation this time. Still not very close, especially around the chin but getting there and I found using my left hand easier than the first time.

With each use you will improve and one day you will do it without thinking about it, keep it up.

Felt the need to keep my hand in with some of my rather neglected DE razors. On looks chose to go from the PAL Adjustable to the Futur.
Was wary of the change , as I find DE razors less forgiving than either SE or Injectors. Using a low setting as usual , I had what seemed a very quick Shave. The shave was smooth and comfortable,
and I have to say that the finished Shave,was up there in terms of quality.

Good morning to you all at the shaving room.

Prep..shower
Pre shave..bloom water
Razor..Feather AC SS
Blade..Feather pro guard
Brush..Kenk BK12
Soap..MWF
Post shave..thayers AF WH
EDT..CK obsession

A lovely two pass shave with the kamisori, one small Nick on my ear lobe but apart from that all went smoothly.
As smooth as silk and feeling great, finnished off with a splash of WH, followed by a spray of CK obsession.

It's wet and windy here, I hope your weather is better and you have a wonderful day. Over and out.

Brush: custom finest 2-band.
Shaving bowl: Epsilon.
Shaving cream: Arko Men Ice Mint.
Razor: iKon 102 ("Schraegschnitt") with custom handle.
Blade: 7 O'Clock Super Platinum (1).
After shave: Arko Men Ice Mint.

First shave with a "Schraegschnitt" - must get used to it ...
Smooth shave, but maybe too much pressure on the throat - several small nicks ... :p

Result: very smooth, but must practice on the technique for this kind of razor.

Have a nice day, gentlemen ! ;)
