I guess the aftershave is appropriate for this shave. I didn't use the razor in the picture and I didn't use the brush in the picture either. One of the key saying in the Marine Corps is to improvise, overcome, and adapt. So that's what I did. Things changed and so I went with it.
Long story short, an amazing close comfortable shave. The iKon Shavecraft is a razor you have to respect, but if you do it is a great performer. There is not I can say about this brush other than fantastic. In every way!!!
