Well first shave off the road and though it was supposed to be a Sunday shave I figured one more day of fuzz would be fine. Today’s beauty is a 1966 Gillette Aristocrat Adjustable and a particular favourite. It now lives in its correct case which was sourced down in Texas and sent on up by a friend.

Lots to mow through so eh A’crat dialled up to 5 and Gillette Nacet blade is a match made in heaven. I haven’t loaded a Nacet in a while and I found it both Sharp and smooth. Lovely. RazoRock American Barber was the soap of choice along with the matching AS.

Lovely two pass DFS achieved. Lovely way to start what will no doubt be a busy week.
