Oh, Richard - unfortunately, Lady's Human got the sensitive skin (believe it or not) from our mom, as did I, so coating any skin with Dawn would make things far worse, not better!

Just some band-aids for afterwards, and a sympathetic mug of coffee for da brudder.

At one point, you could have lined up three generations of male hands - my Dad, Lady's Human, and my nephew James (our sister's oldest) and have sworn they were the same hands, they just vary in the amount of wear, tear, hair and scars! Pretty odd, as they don't really look alike, but they all also share the same cowlick in back - which is also the reason I will NEVER let the hair on the back of my head be less than 5 inches long - as I know mine would do the same thing!
