When palming the changeable blade razor, the comb should be held by which fingers?

Index and middle fingers
Middle and ring fingers
Ring and little fingers
Thumb and index fingers

The correct answer is: Ring and little fingers

When palming the changeable blade razor, it is important to use your non-dominant hand to hold the comb steady. This allows for better control and precision when shaving. Using the thumb and index fingers of your non-dominant hand may feel natural, but it can cause the comb to shift or slip, leading to uneven cuts or nicks. Using the ring and little fingers may also not be the best choice, as they are smaller and may not have as strong of a grip on the comb. The best option is to use the index and middle fingers, as they are larger and allow for a better grip on the comb for steadiness and control.
