My trimmer?

I'm just teasing a bit. At least it's not an electric unmentionable.  Big Grin

It has that attachment actually.  I do not try to keep it up by hand. It would look very uneven LOL.

OK, today I celebrated Micromatic Monday by accident.
[Image: sos221017.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream
Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger
Gem MMOC
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Osage Rub

The C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem MMOC and the Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
