Shaving is hard and I am bad at it.

[prog]

So I've been shaving about as often as I used to trim my beard; once every few days. Usually when I catch myself in the mirror and think, "Ugh, that looks terrible." And then I let it go two more days.

Today was a shaving day and I didn't slice up my thumb like last time, but I did give myself a hundred invisible cuts, the kind that you don't notice until you splash water on your face. I can't see my face right now but I'm guessing by the lack of people staring at me in horror that I look OK, at least. Unless they're actually averting their eyes in shame OH GOD

Maybe I should actually dispose of the disposable razors after I use them. I hate throwing things away, though. Surely they've invented some sort of non-disposable razor by now.

There is a difference!

DON'T use disposable razors! They are bad. As a girl, I don't shave my face. However, I can tell you that I have extremely sensitive skin. For years I thought disposable razors were just as good as any other kind. How wrong I was.

So anyway, now I use a triple-blade Venus razor (the "girl" version of the Mach 3) and Aveeno shaving cream. J uses the Mach 3 and the same cream on his face and he never nicks himself. In conclusion, go spend yourself 10 bucks on a real razor and some nice shaving cream! The Aveeno smells really good, not like fakey chemicals, and it's much less harsh.
