Since day one, I've heard that skipping a shave will lead to a better shave. I'm still not convinced. Is it a better shave, or does you face just feel better because you are now clean shaven?

I tell you, anyone who tells you that their tattoo didn't hurt has never had the needle pass over their collar bone or solar plexus (is that it? the middle part that paramedics press on in the movies?). Ouch. Sternum. The very tip is the Ziphoid Process(sp?) xiphoid. and howard, a fairly painless w...

Actually, I have this problem too - dark black hair, though my complexion is a bit more on the olive side. Get yourself a good George Hamilton tan and this should lessen the effect somewhat.
