I agree with you,I have to say most cutlasses fail to shave me as I have a tough curly beard, even in my case I can find some treasure, beside I now see swash-buckling as a pleasure. If this is the way your parrot functions naturally,why interfere with it?

haha seriously mate,my beard is very similar to african americans and that's why I'm still trying to combat those ingrown hairs :cry:

That reminds of the time I was talking to Peter (pbroddi) about black men and their different shaving needs (apparently "bumps" are more common, so men with african-type hair do a lot better with DE / straight shaving over cartridge / electric). Anyway, as I am about the whitest man I know (in colour and culture) I was out of my depth and suggested that Peter take a look at the B&B group called "dark skin".

He did and reported back to me that instead of being for African-American wet shavers ("brothers" was his word) it was, in fact, for site users who set their website "skin" (user interface screen preferences) to a darker palette. I was heartily embarassed. I think I shall stick to things that I know about in future.
 
Gosh, and here's me trying to cut down on the chemicals in what I apply to my skin. Gues this is one "appliance of science" I'll leave to you young, trendy metrosexuals. :oops:

Anyone remember the hoopla around this hair growth product (can't even remember the name now) that supposedly was scientifically independently proven to work -- only later to be retracted since the conclusions were based on a faulty interpretation of the results?

Rogaine? Minoxidil?

Never paid much attention to them myself - I prefer saving the cash I'd otherwise spend on hair care elsewhere :mrgreen: never mind paying extra to maybe grow it and have to care for it.

Just checked my old email and I too had that message. Looking forward to trying it again. Mrs PC said it smelled of teenager's shower gel but I quite liked it. :roll:

WTF. How did this message end up under my name? ;-) I'm pretty sure (actually damn sure, unless I am developing an acute case of Alzheimers) that I did not write this. An my original reply is gone.... Well I can guess what happened technically - I just hope it wasn't intentional :-(
 
oops - It seems I edited your message rather than quoting it :oops: the perils of having one's finger on the button :(

I blame the useless twunts (it's a portmanteau word) at fBfT did a "transparent upgrade" to the aggregation point that my DSL passes through last evening and as a result I was back on 43.2kbps GPRS this morning :x
 
Hi everyone, apologies for the delay in joining this forum!

The Bluebeards Revenge is aimed at those with tough stubble but at the core of it is a very competent luxury shaving cream. We're hoping to convert the people who find it a chore into wet shavers who start to enjoy the whole experience, as the majority of us here now do.

The chemical structures of Lauryl Isoquinolinium Bromide (LIB) and of the three oestrogens (oestriol, oestradiol and oestrone) are quite different so LIB is not acting as an oestrogen-mimic. The active which inhibits the hair growth does not irreversibly affect the hair growth cycle. Decelerine acts in a way so that there is hair growth but it gets progressively slower whilst application of a product containing Decelerine is on the skin. If the user of a product containing Decelerine stops using it, the normal hair growth speed, particular to each individual, will progressively take place again with time. Not only that it has moisturising and skin soothing properties.

I was very interested when I first saw this as I think it's a very interesting development. Reduced beard growth could be beneficial to a lot of men who have stubborn beards. Many folks struggle to go across/against the grain when shaving due to beard resistance and others use blades that are sharper but leave redness. I would be interested to hear from someone who has used this for long enough to see if it actually works. Of course the problem is that, if it does work well, then you would be stuck with one type of shaving cream to use for ever!
