    -> 2 pass head shave, 1 pass neck cleanup. Great scents and good shave.

    So yeah, it’s me again! I actually shaved in the past week, just never bothered posting since most of my head shaves were quick and nonchalant shaves under the shower.

    Yesterday was my grandma’s funeral. Exactly four weeks after her passing. It was a quite exhausting day (mostly mentally, although strong heat and wearing a black suit isn’t very comfortable either) but now I start to feel a bit better. It may sound weird, but funerals provide a weird sense of closure for me. Of course it’s a very sad occasion, but actually it helps to think about the good days you had with that person.

    Today I chose something that just smells nice and even my grandma would’ve enjoyed: Creatures of the Night is a powdery masculine cologne scent with a slightly more sweet twist. Nothing I could use often, but today it’s quite fitting. This is in HAGS sheep tallow base (why do they have so many bases?!?) and it feels very good in terms of performance and skin care. 2 passes with the Thorn can be done very quickly, so my dome is nice and slick again. The ASB wasn’t the most fitting, but still a good pairing.

    Hope everyone had a good weekend.
