    I used a DE for several years on the dome and finally got tired of catching moles and so use the Trac II/Atra for my scalp in the shower.

    One of the tougher days at work that I can remember. Lots of conflict I have to get in the middle of. Tomorrow will be the B side of the same record. On the bright side, if I ever want to teach kindergarten, I’m pretty sure I’m prepared for bad behavior and two year old tantrums.

    I'm sorry you had a rough day, Randy. This is one of the reasons I don't miss work.

    Terry, you are right. The new thing that I am learning is that I can't shave the same way when I use a sharper blade with my shavette. I have to use a little lighter touch then when I use a Dovo long or a regular DE half blade. There is hope because I used the Personna hairshaper for my headshave without any nicks. However, if I really want to play daredevil, then I would want to use a Feather blade in my Dovo shavette. Lol! I guess as I have gotten older, I have become more daring. Don't worry! I will never skydive! Lol!

    Here's your song, Paul. It's one of my favorite tunes from the '80s.

    Ah good chioce! I had some moles removed on the head and neck per the wifes request. They were quite large so combing the hair was hard. I did have hair once upon a time. So I understand the problems.
    Very good chioce.

    Congrats on your progress, Rob. Your focus, your rules. Have fun with different soaps! As your technique develops, I bet you'll soon be shaving daily (if that's your goal) with no neck irritation. When I got started, I never thought I'd be able to pull off daily shaves. I had neck irritation for years from misusing a crummy electric razor. (Yes, I'm from Kentucky, and I had a red neck.) It's all gone now. I bet yours will be too!

    Randy, are you 100% sure your wife hadn't already arrived at that conclusion?
