Shave

Just got back from my very first professional shave. Fantastic. Excellent trim of the beard. Hot towel and soap for the face. Straight Razor. Uh, trimmed my eyebrows... I smell nice now, too. I'll go back. Fanara's Tonsorial Parlor... Fabulous.

Sounds awesome. Very jealous. Jackie got me a badger's hair brush (please refrain from animal rights spiels) and a mug / lather soap for my birthday. Must admit Im not brave enough to go the whole nine yards and get a safety / straight razor, although everyone tells me this is the best shave, period. As I think I posted on RSN some time ago, Jackie's uncle in Ohio is a barber and the name of his shop is 'Leroy the Tonsor': anyone have any 'tonsorial autodidact' sightings recently?

A shave and a haircut (two bits) is still on my "life list". Sounds great. Maturity is when you get your nostril/ear hair trimmed. Currently using the tube of shaving cream in the shower, with a safety razor. Not bad, except for missed spots due to foggy mirror. Bearded shaving is the best.

Shit, by the sound of it I've secretly been mature since I was like ten.
