Result: 3.9/5.0
Repeat after me: Though shalt go light on a Slant/Feather combo. Though shalt go light on a Slant/Feather combo. Two weepers in the left neck hollow. Ninja shave. Should have stretched the neck a little in there better and lighten up the pressure and make the angle a little shallower. No harm. Just a little roughed up. On a good note, my ear is all healed. Should have stuck an earring in there for Pirate Day. I was half way there. Erasmus Soap is nice. Wish the bowl was a little bigger. That's why I went to a small brush today. Nice smelling and a little better than average performance.
