Very nice MMMMFF shave tonight. I’m really enjoying this Simpson brush now that it’s not losing so many hairs anymore (5 today, 7 yesterday, 11 the day before).

I’ve started casually hunting for a Flying Wing. The aesthetic is very pleasing to me.
I did just get a MMOC though, and I’m waiting on a replacement head for my MM24. Trying to remind myself just one thing at a time, but they’re just so damn affordable on the bay. :)

Flying Wing is a must-have.

I prefer the Clog-pruf, you might just have to get all three Micromatics to make sure… @snooting@sub.wetshaving.social does your MMOC have the raised dots that turn it down a bit?
snooting@sub.wetshaving.social 3 weeks ago
It does not. So far I have a first gen MMOC (the one without bumps), a first gen Clog Pruf, and a MM24 that I’m waiting to return after a head repair.
I think the Flying Wing makes all 3, no? Unless I want to collect every iteration of each as well…

Agreed. Best to cover all of your bases to ensure the best shave possible.

The flying wing is not only super pretty, it’s also a great razor. You’re unlikely to be disappointed
