2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave. $headless $FriodomRiders
Love this soap and splash. I feel that its freshness counters the oppressive heat we're having. Yesterday was the first time that I used a straight razor and did not strop it after the shave. (I only strop after a shave, not before.) I plan to continue without stropping for this entire month. I'm expecting that I will notice an edge difference somewhere around 12 shaves. That's where I notice a DE blade beginning to go off. I may need to add a third pass at that point.
