Today shave was pretty mid. No one’s fault but my own. I was dragging ass this morning and had to get out the door and so my lather was a little off and I got some irritation.

One thing I should try to get better at is quick shaves. Luxurious ones are easy enough. Makes me wonder about tips to shave fast and get out the door.
