Please tell us whether stropping is better ona live cow or a live horse

I didn't strop on any of the animals, so I can't speak to their respective stropability, but they tasted great!

29.07.2025
- Brush: AP Shave Co. black clear handle w 30 mm Tuxedo Fan knot
- Razor: Ever-Ready 1912 SE
- Blade: Personna GEM PTFE
- Lather: E&S Rasage - Shaman
- Post-Shave: Lavera Men sensitive ASB
- Passes & Info: 1 pass head & face around goatee; not very close nor comfortable
Trimmed my goatee really short so I also had to shave around it; unfortunately I paid with some redness/razor burn on the face for it. I guess the blade is at the end of its life cycle.
Shaman was really cool though, yet another nice tobacco scent with some fruity and woody notes. I really enjoy the new E&S base.
Day 2 at my new station (or more accurately, as I found out by finally researching in my fav german - english dictionary: residential area) was a bit harder, but manageable. Tomorrow will be more stressful - we're only 4 staff members in the day shift due to a injured/sick colleague. Well - this too shall pass...

Primidi 11 Thermidor an 233 de la Révolution, jour de Panic – Also: Zingari Zischtig
Day of Panic! In the shave-den on this lovely thermidor day. Morning shave, which is inhabitual. My head is doing better, and I'm always happy when I use Mousse Illuminée.
Have a good day!
