  1. It's a weep Paul. Sometimes, I use the word crier instead.

  3. Thanks Joe....I ordered my second Gents Gin way too early, as there's still a little bit left of the current one.
    Oh ok....it "leaks" blood. Crier works too...Did you ever get a crier with CRYogen????

  4. awesome tech shave and pic Daniel.i use a sheet of colored card paper,a stool and the side of the fireplace for my pics,can't get much lower budget than that.looks good.;):eatdrink047:
  5. That certainly works well and it's less hassle than using a DSLR! I could always resize my pics without sending them to myself, but there is multiple ways to make the files small enough.

    Straight Shave #365
    13/8 ArtRazor 1000
    Catie's Bubbles Tuxedo Brush
    Angora Soaps Midnight Lavender SS and AS
    Maggard's Alum Block
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 36 hrs

    In my continuation of my Maximum May theme, my 13/8 ArtRazor (Artie) was up next.
    This is my largest straight in my den. Truth be told, it would be the largest in 99.9 % straight shaver's den. Lol!

    Anyway, my 2 pass shave without touchups gave me a very nice shave without any incidents. I just love this soap. It produces a nice, creamy and slick lather everytime. The scent is awesome. I had very little feedback from the alum. Mainly, a few zings and that was all. Witch hazel was applied. I splash it on whether I need it or not because it is part of my postshave ritual. Topped the shave with the matching juice for that ah! feeling. I am off today so I am headed for a full body workout and the gym. Have a good day!

  7. Thanks, Gary! The Tech is a good razor.

    Hey come on, you use a fireplace for your pics, those aren't cheap! :D Just kidding of course.
  8. With some shavers, Cryogen does cause the eyes to tear due to its high concentration of menthol. In my case, the menthol doesn't affect me that way.
  9. i send my pics from my phone to my laptop.i have the free version of photoshop express on the laptop, where i can edit photos in a snap.:)
  10. Happy Birthday Myles! 28 :rofl:
    Great looking shave.
  11. Great shave, Joe! That razor looks kind of like a cleaver, and I like it!
  12. Perfect combination Danny.

  15. Thank you Daniel.
  16. That works too! I have an android phone, so snapseed seems to be the best free way to edit photos on it. I'll try to resize the next shot without sending it to myself, to see if it makes a difference in quality.
  17. a 30 day focus should get things in order..or as Joe says,100 shaves with a straight/shavette will get you over the bridge.:)

  19. Excellent shave Daniel. I have used a cheap Dollar Tree DE, cost $1.99, for my travel shaves. It does get the job done rather nicely.
  20. mine is android also.i do the effects on the phone sometimes,but still email the results to my laptop.
