Was it similar to having the flu or a chest cold?View attachment 88870
I’m getting over Covid and although testing negative, I’m still coughing and easily tired. So what better than arranging or a chest cold? an enjoyable shave to improve one’s mood.
To that end, I went for a known combination that would give me a pampering, effortless shave. The Fatboy on 6, a used Wilkinsons’ Sword, the Wool Fat mixed up with the Semogue. Actually this was the first time I’ve used the Owners Club with the Wool Fat and of course in combination, they were superb. I spent a little more time than usual hydrating the lather, which meant that the post shave feel is smooth and clean, with no need for any balms or aftershaves.
On 6 for the WTG and ATG passes meant that I really only needed one neck pass ATG at 5 to finish. Lovely!
Stay safe and enjoy your shaves!

So, as far as I'm concerned, the Astra green are definitely for the Mrs to shave her legal with. Today I used Nacet blades and unlike the last 2 days my face isn't sore at all.
Signature Leodis once again a great shave component
Have a nice day all, turned out lovely today

Assume you don't mind the missus having sore legs then?
