Friday

Gillette Sensor 3
Ever Ready 150 with NF220 knot
Arko Soap

Soap: Nannys Patchouli

Result: Very good
Last week, when I Shaved with this razor, I watched a lots of vids before doinging it, this time I didn´t ... it would have helped if I had done the same this week :lol: It´s a very different way of shaving, I think. Shaved the dome aswell, but with a DE (I wouldn´t go there with the japanese razor, just yet). I´m trying out a DE for a friend who wants to start using DE:s, I allready gave him a brush and a proper soap - he he :twisted:

The Prez called to me this morning, as it does sometimes. This blade is a nice match for the razor.
