First of all, big thanks to @djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social for posting the SOTD thread today. The bot is having trouble and as a non-coder I’m reliant on GPT-4 to actually make it go for me. Fortunately, I think I see the problem and hopefully it will work tonight. If not, DJ will post the thread again.
I was very pleased with this shave. As I mentioned in previous posts, since I have no thrill left I’ve decided to start using DEs again just make things interesting. I’ve tried the SuperSpeed (waaaaaaaaaay to mild) and the Tech (too mild but not in a bad way). Decided to do the Slim for the next several shaves and I got to say that with the slim on 9 it dealt with several days of growth like it wasn’t there. Ended up with a really nice feeling shave with no irritation.
This is my first SOTD on Lemmy, and I’m happy I remembered it was Mammoth Monday to use some Mammoth products for this first SOTD!
Anytime, buddy👍
