    How did you find that pic from my university days? When I say face and jaw, they are merely euphemisms for legs and armpits...

    Duly noted and recorded. It looks like she is about to bring an odd, terrible avatar into this big,bad world.

    The razor was indeed NOS when I got it. The KMF is the lavender-shea. It's the only one I've tried but quite pleased with it.

    Don't skimp. When you're techniques are solid, blades will last 2x-3x as long as now. And FWIW... Friends don't let friends learn on Wilkie.
