clean shave

i shaved a man's facial hair for the first time today.

it was like creating negative 3-D art on a white fluffy palatte. slightly nerve-wracking, since the last thing i wanted to do was to have brett walking around with little bits of toilet paper on his face. there's some strategy to it, razing hair with as few strokes as possible. the pressure of the blade on skin needs to be just right.

it was great fun, deciding how much to shave and where. chops? goatee? moustache...um, nO. it took a while since we were playing around with the look. in the end, all of the curly beard came off.

brett said i did a good job, and his skin wasn't even irritated. huzzah!

next time i might make designs.
