Pretty good shave, not quite as nice as my last two. Taking down 6 days of growth. First pass WTG second pass XTG. I think I didn’t have the lather dialed in quite as well today. I got a little bit of irritation in all the problem areas :( pretty close though…

Also maybe my technique sucked today. I’m distracted because I had a wisdom tooth pulled yesterday. Deton-8 helps me to feel better.

Edit: it seems my left side is much better than my right side…
