- Brush: AP Shave Co. black & clear handle w/ 30 mm Tuxedo Fan knot
- Razor: RazoRock Hawk V2 w/ Cyber handle
- Blade: KAI Captain Protouch MG
- Lather: Barrister and Mann - The Full Measure of Man
- Post-Shave: OAM sensitive skin toner
- Passes & Info: 1 pass on the head, 2 around the goatee; slightly rough feeling in some areas but very close shave.
I feel like I need to downgrade yesterday’s shave from “good” to “okay” - a few spots were simply not shaved very well. So for a minus in comfort but a plus in efficiency I chose the Hawk V2 today. A solid trade-off.
FMOM was as great as always. I’m really glad to own a few awesome tobacco soaps, one of my favourite scent notes.
Had my first shift on a new station: This one will also be my main one once the retraining is over on September 1st. The colleagues are very friendly and the residents seem to be more relaxed. Currently I feel a bit dumb since it’s a totally different work environment yet again, but let’s hope it continues to be nice.

First official position since gaining certification?

Unfortunately not yet - I still have one oral exam at the 26th of August and will receive my certificate by the 1st of September, but since I am “three quarters done” according to management, I already transferred to that station. It might also sound much more complex than it is: the nursing home where I work is small, each floor is its own station or in german “Wohnbereich” (literal translation = living space). Back in Jan. '24 when I started, I worked from the top floor (then) to the bottom floor (now). Apologies if all of this is hard to understand, my brain is kinda mushy from all the exhaustion atm
