    You can get these things on ebay but I have not actually used one of them myself. They do seem to be quite cheap though

    I saw one of the fuzz away things you are talking about in Woolworths last week, it was in the household section near the ironing boards and sewing products, I think they were around the £5 mark.
    Bring on the Bling!

    Got one from superdrugs on Friday for £1.99 ...... works well without causing any damage or risk of damage, but it takes a lot more work than I expected ... thought it would work like an electric shaver thing quick & easy ... not that I have ever seen one in use but anyway ... the results are worth it .... I had muchos fun with it:D until the little one started with it :rolleyes:
    I can say whatever I like here ... 'cos no one can see me .. ner ner ner ner ner !!!....

    How do you know I ain't sitting here butt naked?!?!

    I thunk I've made you think for a minute!

  • I always use a brand new razor, works a treat!
