📝 Shave Summary
Another enjoyable shave with the Voskhod Stainless Blade and Ares (Lambda Ares V2).
There were two small cuts — one on my upper lip and one on my nostril — which were entirely my fault for relaxing and not respecting the power of the machine. While the Ares V2 is excellent and gives an amazingly close shave, it always requires respect and care.
💡 Observations
- Voskhod Stainless Blade continues to thrive in its second use.
- The Ares V2 is a razor that combines depth and requires technique.
- The setup (pre-shave, soap, after shave) works great.
