By: George Takei, Steven Scott, Justin Eisinger | Illustrator:  Harmony Becker   
Following the award-winning bestseller They Called Us Enemy, George Takei’s new full-color graphic memoir reveals his most personal story of all—told in full for the first time anywhere!

George Takei has shown the world many faces: actor, author, outspoken activist, helmsman of the starship Enterprise, living witness to the internment of Japanese Americans, and king of social media. But until October 27, 2005, there was always one piece missing—one face he did not show the world. There was one very intimate fact about George that he never shared…and it rhymes with Takei.

Now, for the first time ever, George shares the full story of his life in the closet, his decision to come out as gay at the age of 68, and the way that moment transformed everything. Following the phenomenal success of his first graphic memoir, They Called Us Enemy, George Takei reunites with the team of Harmony Becker, Steven Scott, and Justin Eisinger for a jaw-dropping new testament. From his earliest childhood crushes and youthful experiments in the rigidly conformist 1950s, to global fame as an actor and the terrible fear of exposure, to the watershed moment of speaking his truth and becoming one of the most high-profile gay men on the planet, It Rhymes with Takei offers a sweeping portrait of one iconic American navigating the tides of LGBTQ+ history.

Combining historical context with intimate subjectivity, It Rhymes with Takei shows how the personal and the political have always been intertwined. Its richly emotional words and images depict the terror of entrapment even in gay community spaces, the anguish of speaking up for so many issues while remaining silent on his most personal issue, the grief of losing friends to AIDS, the joy of finding true love with Brad Altman, and the determination to declare that love openly—and legally—before the whole world. 

Looking back on his astonishing life on both sides of the closet door, George Takei presents a charismatic and candid account of how far America has come…and how precious that progress is.

Very effective dermaplaning
I was really very impressed with these dermaplane razors. At first, I thought they were a little pricier than what I am used to, but after using them, I feel like they way more effective than others I have used. I thought they did a perfect job of removing all the post-menopause peach fuzzy I deal with. They left my skin smooth and did not leave any type of irritation on my skin. They come in two lengths, but I thought they were both equally easy to use. The handles are a nice, ergonomic shape that is easy to grasp. The blades stayed sharper longer than others. I will be ordering more of these and recommend them.

I like the design of these dermaplane razors
I have been using a different brand that folds in half for easy travel but the drawback was a small and unreliable handle. Not so for these razors – the straight handle allows for a more controlled and steady shave, I don’t have to worry about my razor folding up mid stroke. The blades themselves are a decent length and come in two different sizes. I have been using the larger ones for dermaplaning and touch ups whereas the smaller blades work great for shaping up eyebrows. These are not the highest quality razors, I mean not terrible but I did have one of the razor parts pop off of the handle unintentionally. I feel like $13.99 is on the higher end for 12 razors, I have seen similar blades for cheaper and larger quantity (although they didn’t have the two different sizes).

12 pack derma planing razors
I am a huge fan of derma planing and was quite intrigued by this set of razors. I was curious how they'd stack up to my tried and true disposable razors hat I've been using for years. First, they look and feel pretty nice - definitely nicer than my current ones. I do wish the handles were a lil more grippy because they get slippery very easily if they get wet or if you accidentally get oil/lotion on them. There isn't any indication of how many times you can use each razor or if they're only single use. There are two different sized razors included, but I'm not sure what the smaller ones are for - I wish they'd include some instructions! Currently priced at $13.89 for 12 razors, I find the price to be too high for what you receive. They are nice razors, yes, but they are not premium quality.

Effective dermaplaning wands
These razors work really well for removing my peach fuzz. I have a fuzzy chin and hair on my knuckles that’s hard to get off with a larger razor. These come in two sizes for precision dermaplaning. I apply some jojoba oil to my skin before dermaplaning and there is no irritation. I love the frosty translucent handles, they look clean and professional. There are twelve to a pack and they come in a little box to keep them all together. These are a great value for the quality.

Fast & Easy
These work really good. I have been waxing for over 20 years and I just wanted to try something new. This set comes with two different sizes. I used the large blade for my chin and lip. And the smaller blade for my eyebrows. The handle is sturdy and not flimsy. Comes with a case. I already stuck one of each in my travel bag!
