How's Your Day? Archives

Alright. I'll check the mail area later tonight and let you know. Sometimes, USPS delivers around 5 PM. I won't be home for another couple of hours.

 

Hey, you're supposed to be reading this everyday anyways. Required reading. Remember??? Yes he sent me the whole TSD bottle. He took one whif and panzied out on me. We were actually gonna go halvzies on that order, but he didn't even want paid after smelling it. I'll just use my finger or find another bottle to put it in. I'm not giving up on the Vetiver so easily!!

Enjoy your chow.

Thanks Sparky. You're a good egg. What ever happened with that tongue blow smiley dude? Go or no go?

 

Shep, for goodness sakes. Let the lady eat. Now you have gone and spoiled her dinner by mentioning Vetiver and scent in one sentence. :sick007

JoAnna I must give you credit. You obviously have to cook that stuff up in your house. The person who created the vetiver scent is laughing at us all.

 

We're a strange bunch here on the East Coast.

 

maybe that is why ray didn't get his yet


oooh dark knight is on downstairs *runs away*

edit: I tried the tabac, I give it 3 out of 5 pancakes

 

btw have I mentioned that the Merkur slant is one wicked looking razor? I can't wait to give that baby a go.

 

Indeed.

Why only 3. Scent related or performance.

 

Whatever you do, don't do the Gillette Slide with that thing. Always use straight strokes. They are wicked looking.

 

Oh no she di'int!!! Heresey!!! Off with her head!

Dom, Tracy, sharpen the axe. I'll find my black hood.

 

No axes. This calls for pain. Break her kneecaps.

 

XTG and ATG passes are ok right?

 

I was bored do I decided to post a pic of my labs. The one on the left is obviously a lot bigger now and he is the one I hunt with now

 

Yes, everything else is just like a gillette or non slant. Just don't go at angles.

 

I was never any good at that whole slide the razor sideways while you pull it down your face anyway. When you say no angles what about this: Starting at the outside neck area (below the ear) and shaving upwards towards the center of the chin. Basically shaving at a 45 deg. angle but with the razor head remaining straight. Put another way, a diagonal ATG pass. Does that work?

 

Actually now that I think about it I guess the purpose of the slant is to do away with all those funky passes and techniques huh?

 

I wouldn't recommend the 45 with a straight head, that is basically a slide. Here is what I do.

N-S pass 1-2 times
Against the grain S-N
Go over problem areas with against the grain.
Touch up with some blade buffing and occasionally a J-Hook

 

I like the scent! I just couldn't get a good lather. It will definitely not go ignored but if I had to choose only one soap for the rest of my life it would certainly not be this one.

 

you haven't used it enough...keep at it and you will be able to get awesome lather from it.
