Day 5: Coming off yesterday's rushed shave, I slowed today's down. I reopened a few of yesterday's weepers, but didn't do any new damage and certainly less irritation post-shave than yesterday. That's 5 straight days of 2-pass WTG / ATG shaves, which I've never been able to do comfortably before and, despite the last two shaves not being great, they were far better than any other attempt I've made at consecutive shaves iwth an ATG pass. Time to switch to WTG / XTG for the next few days to let the skin recover a bit.
Here is an album that I am going to continue uploading to throughout the month to show progress of the brush. I weighed the tub again post-shave today and it was 137.4, a difference from yesterdays's post-shave of 11.3g... I'm not sure this tub will make it to the end of the month...
