Guys Thread

I just started using Schick Quattro Titanium- a bit pricey, but they work real well- I have a heavy beard, and with these babies I can even skip a day (well, not a workday, but still). They also last longer than any blade I've ever used.
Now onto the deodorant/antiperspirant discussion...What keeps you dry and smelling like a clean mountain spring come August in Ibiza? (we can all bring extra to hand out to a certain element at DC10):twisted:

We don't have a huge choice out here as antiperspirant is not quite as widely used as it really really needs to be in Russia :evil: :lol: Lots of guys will either go without or pile on the cologne. Gross.

I use Rexona Clear. I'm convinced it's the same formula as Sure in the West.
 
As far as razors go it's a Mach3 for me and I use King of Shaves shaving gel for sensitive skin (the stuff in a can, not the tube).
As for facial hair, I used to grow a goatee every winter to help protect my face from the elements when on my motorbike, but I haven't for the past couple of years as I'm going grey but my beard only seems to want to go grey on one side of my chin:?
I usually only shave once a week unless I'm going out or there's a specific reason for it, so I usually look a bit scruffy (not rugged!).

As for deoderants, I usually use Lynx- I'm not keen on the smell, but I can't stand deoderants that leave me with powdery stuff in my pits!!! That new Lynx Dry stuff makes my armpits itch like hell though:?
 
mach 3 razor! Sure roll on original de-oad the best even for the longest of sesh's!.... my further question is hair stuff? What do you use?... I use this stuff called chill that's really good! Good stuff and doesn't make you look like a cow's licked your head :-)

we're giving the girls a run for their money now!
 
I never had a beard till last October when I decided that I was just going to experiment with it. Hence, after one month of not shaving, I ended up growing a "Colorado Mountain Man Beard":lol: .

I was going to shave it off after my monthly hair cut, but my hair stylist convinced me that instead of keeping the "Colorado Mountain Man Beard" I should just go to a traditional barber and just ask him to shave the beard in a way that would make me look my age (31).

So, after visiting a bunch of barbers and asking them if they use a straight razor, I finally found one who not only uses a straight razor but is also amazing with it. I was extremely delighted by the results, but what I found later was the ladeeeez luurve it:lol: .

Now I use a Mach 3 along with a Dovo Shavette razor. Yes, I shave "old skool style" with the shaving brush, etc.. I would highly recommend that if y'all have never had a real old school style shave that it is worth a try. The whole experience is really worth. Ladeeez, treat your man. I am quite positive they will love it.
 
For deodorant I use Old Spice high endurance (not sure I ever saw old spice in the UK when I lived there). It doesn't smell much but keeps me fresh and dry all day. For my hair gunk I use american crew, when my hair is short during the summer that is...
 
Ah, cool, a guy thread!

Shaving - Used a mach 3 for years, but, just switched to a Philips triple head rotary rechargeable (designed to rinse clean). First time I've used a rotary head and liking it, used to use a foil type about 20 years ago but never really got on with it. Had a trimmed beard right up til the grey started to appear :evil: , then...........



Hair Gel - Haven't been using it lately, but, to spike up can't beat Tuftrix by Matrix. Only available from the hairdressers AFAIK. Expensive, but, a 150ml tube, with daily use, lasted over a year!! 8O Only use the size of a pea, hair never felt stiff unlike other products.

Smellies - Call me a cheapscate, but, good old Marks & Spencer's Woodspice is my daily weapon of choice. aftershave, body spray, anti-perspirant and shower gel for a tenner???



Occassionally I'll use Cerruti 1881 aftershave..........mmmmmmmmm niiiiiccccceeee! :p

I hate the powdery stuff too, which is why I use Rexona Clear... no white mess. There must be a similar version of Sure as it's the same manufacturer... check it out next time you're in Boots.
 
Wow excited about this thread. Been wondering this for a while since I still use the old faithfull Gillette Sensor Excel 2 blade. Does the best for my face. I actually think the other 3 blade razors are S**T. I tried them all (three blades that is) and felt extremely ripped off.

I am hoping they have a free trial day where I can go to the local drug store and swipe a couple stripes of hair with each differnt blade8O
 
Can anyone recommend a good post shaving after shave lotion that doesn't cost a fortune like Clinique or Clarins and is really good after you've shaved.
