early today first shave with a red proraso and a personna med prep. definitely a different feeling compared to parker 55SS . Ifind the latter to remove more whiskers at every pass but at the same time i found the DOC more forgiving, i didn't even managed to nick myself at first shave.A few more passes but a good BBS in the end. So, for eficiency, parker wins. For comfort, DOC wins.
Another shave with the YAQI this time with Astra SP. I confirm my first impression , a tad less efficient than my Parker 55SS but more comfortable. The final shave is almost identical
today shave with the YAQI short heavy handle and the R89 head and a yellow feather: spectacular, the mild R89 head with the supersharp feather gave me a very good BBS with no nicks and cuts. I must admit, much better than the original YAQI head
