Back on the horse
This is my first shave since the big cut on Saturday, and it went very well. I used Charlie Hisman's technique of grabbing my ear to stretch my skin for the XTG pass with the opposite hand. I also made one WTG pass and finished up with the Futur. I am dialing back to just these two passes until I get muscle memory for the correct angle. I got a couple weepers on my neck from the Futur, so I may switch to my Aristocrat for a while there, too. Lavanille was amazing in every way, as usual.
