📝 Shave Summary
I started with level 2 on the Osprey and the result was velvety – almost cottony! Second attempt with level 3: “wild beauty” with redness and small cuts on the cheek and chin. The remaining passes were done on level 1 for safety. Switching settings with wet hands was difficult. Also, the head collects soap and requires attention when cleaning.
💡 Observations
- The machine has character! Level 3 for strong players.
- Changing stairs with wet hands is awkward.
- First impression: Osprey is efficient but requires technique.
