Well my first time using the infamous Gillette fat boy and already I know what all the fuss is about.
After 3 days growth I decided to dial it in at #6 WTG #6 XTG and my final pass was#4 ATG.
The razor mowed down my growth without any problem on my first pass. I am extremely impressed by the vintage capabilities.
The result was a BBS shave that was so smooth and without cuts, weepers or any irritation.
So much so and although this is my first go with this razor, it is a must buy razor.
Really impressed with her performance.
The soap produced a good lather with a lovely sandalwood scent but if I had any criticism I would say that it lacks in a little slickness and cushion. YMMV.
The brush as usual performed its face lathering magic and finishing off with the Hazel and Balm I could not fault the shave.
Joop is an old skool scent that I still adore to this day.
Enjoy your shaves folks and take care,
Wayne.
