Razor: PAA Meta-4

Aftershave: Westman Bastardo

Father/son shave. Today’s shave is dedicated to @Eric_75 . It was my first time using a GSB. This is one sharp blade! Delivered a full BBS even with the PAA Meta-4 which has lower efficiency, although it’s extremely comfortable, consistent and easy-to-use. My family thinks Bastardo makes me smell like a pumpkin spice muffin. Yummm! BBS

Wishing you a restful day.

Afternoon, today's shave:

Razor: Feather Kami
Blade: Feather Professional (2)
Pre: Hot Water
Soap: Proraso Canned Foam
Brush: n/a
Aftershave: Brut
Post: n/a

Nice 2 pass shave today, DFS, looking respectable once again. I'll never get the easy comfort and closeness of my fav DE's with this razor, but I enjoy the challenge and slowing down a bit. Double pull of Illy intense espresso and some tunes on the old Sony radio, all came together very nicely.

8/10

Cheers
