On a YouTube video I watched that was about shaving, I found out that some men have faces that work best with a rotary shaver and some have faces that work best with a foil shaver. The Norelco always did a number on my neck--and besides, it fell apart--so I bought a Panasonic foil shaver and I've never looked back.

I remember seeing it in black and white and there was singing to the tune of “Jingle Bells”. “Floating heads, floating heads floating all the way.” The rest was something that ended with “on Christmas Day”. Thanks for sharing!😊

Here's a massive playlist of holiday commercials, many from the 70's and early 80's.
