So come on @Palmolive fox what's all this 'precious swede' thing? Are we talking some kind of gold plated turnip or Brit Ekland?

My 'precious swede' or turnip is a preference for my head.. A term used by my grandad, which I have carried on... I fell off my bike when I was young, which he fixed for me, after he said 'a bike can be fixed, your' 'precious swede' can't, so be careful and take care of it...Nothing to do with the wonderful animal loving Brit Ekland.

Blade Bluebird Platinum 1st
Post & Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Hyaluronic + MacaRoot Aloe Gel
Awesome quality from the cream. Pleasant scent, very easy to create a creamy and super slick lather...
Shave with razor paired with this favorite blade was awesome as well. So smooth and comfortable for 3passes without any issues for a mostly bbs glass feel finish. Cooling aftershaves were excellent on this oven-hot day as I will be working directly under the sun for most of the day...

Prep: Shower pears soap and PAA cube.

Pre: PAA cube and Baxter’s scrub

Soap: Stirling Ozark

Brush: Yaqi 26mm lucky dice

Razor: Rockwell Model T

Blade: Persona Viking Sword

Post: Alum, L’Oréal Barbershop aftershave balm.

I may have cracked it! Only one weeper, from a previous cut/spot! The Ozark sample was amazing not a scent I’d normally go for but I’ve yet to find a Stirling soap I don’t like and that has continued today. The shave was on 2 and my 3rd use of the Viking but I feel I’ve tamed the beast. I love the Rockwell so far but I’m pretty sure it would be a once a week razor rather than daily driver as even on this level it’s still more aggressive than any of my other razors.

You know what Barry? I had never heard precious swede being used as a term for head. You live and learn.

You were lucky my granddad would have fixed my bike first.
