    This Schick Type H - aka The Hussy - provides one of the best shaves you can get. I did a write up years ago on the now tragically defunct Injector Party thread about a head to head with the PAL Injecto-Matic. The H came out on top - barely but it was better. :happy088:

    Today was no exception - no drama, quick, easy, and super super close and smooth :happy036:

    Sharp eyes will notice the design inspiration this razor lent to @twhite ’s Bunny Razor :)

    I still have tiki has one of my top artisan soaps. Ive got 3 that she custom made for me and 8 or 9 that were sold to everyone. I personally like tiki alot better than some of the bigger names in artisan soaps.

    They took off early on and then it seemed like everyone jumped on the soaps with a bigger social media presence.
