i’ve got bad razor burn. what’s a modern girl to do?

Like your not-so-recent hair troubles, I would be surprised if your razor burn worries have not cleared up without help from myself.

Should you require removal of hair in the future, a painless but time-consuming method is to reason with each follicle: they are creatures prone to depression, and if made even more miserable by talks about the destruction of the environment or reality television, they will spontaneously die, leaving you with a spot that will never grow hair again.

While this technique is recommended for armpit and let hair, it should not be attempted on eyebrows without extreme care. Who knows what the fashion of brow-shape will be in the days and weeks to come, and who wants to sport a finely crafted pair when every hap cat in the street proudly proclaims their messy, unkempt forehead-underliners.
