Headshave at night. Still really in the honeymoon phase with this NO soap - the scent is like 80s music, a timeless classic with a nostalgic vibe.
One pass plus cleanups on the dome. My skin on the scalp seems to not respond too negatively to the scented soap, so I theorize that it really was the alcohol aftershave that was always the irritating factor. I'm glad that there's a plethora of alcohol free options like toners and balms nowadays. The milder razors seem to help too.
Tomorrow will be the last day of my internship at the place for disabled parents with children. It was only two weeks, the shortest internship we have. But nevertheless interesting. I found out that I can get along way better with children than I thought... Maybe one day I will finally have a family of my own.
It is different when they are your own :)
