Sunday 27 August
I managed two shaves this morning,
, but one was my normal shave and the other to my Ilex standard bushes. The latter was more of a buzz cut to be honest.
First the Ilex
Razor, Bosch electric Lithium
Blade, Bosch wide span fingers
Pre shave, on blade WD 40 professional silicone spray
post, wire brush and WD 40
The secret with this “razor” is not to get it anywhere near the parts of the body not involved in the shave. I made the mistake once but never again as nearly lost the top of my thumb
Result was never bbs but perfectly acceptable, the bush not my thumb, keep up at the back there

Earlier I had my shave of the day,
Razor, Gillette slim, 1966 L1 set on 6.
Blade, Gillette 7o’clock second use
Soap, Summer Fig
Result pretty much bbs in one pass. A very light atg pass and minor pick ups for a definitive bbs result.
Any of you fellas not tried the slim razor you really must it’s pretty amazing.
Enjoy your Sunday fellas.
