What shaving products are you planning to buy?

O.k. This is totally different to the German forums I know, were it is not normal just to avoid an advertising battle between the vendors in every thread.

I can absolutely see where that has its merits. Though I'm unfamiliar with German forums, I believe that TSR is particularly well managed. I think if there were to be advertising battles, there would be grounds for removal of comments and/or removal of vendors from the site, so entirely undoing their advertising. I think it's fair to say that the vendors here approach advertising with some decorum, as I've never seen any major vying for attention.

Is it normal at TSR that vendors make advertising in every normal user thread for their shops? Thought they have their own section to do that? I thought here communicate regular members naming products they like without getting tips of vendors for their shops...

I am sorry, too. I am German and not familar with some different rules. I just behaved like we do when vendors doing adverts in the German forums. Next time I will ask some members before being a wiseass.

Ha ha not a wiseass, understandable if its what you are used to! As vendors on here we are not pushy (or at least I hope we are not seen to be!) - we all love shaving & only want to help

Hi Barry, I saw that brush first on images @nolisco and @Wayne Pritchard posted some weeks ago on the SOTD thread and it was love from first sight. Although some say it is a small brush in size with only a 20mm knot, I have seen some youtube shaving videos and it seems big enough for me.

Vie Long offering that brush with brown or white horse hair and also with two different handles, same in design but with different woods. There are also different opinions about which horse hair is softer, the brown or the white one.
The Shavemac Americana is also a very beautiful shaving brush.

Thanks for the video Alexander. It's the SOTD's that have been the ruin of me.

I to have Six Palmolive sticks coming my way after shunning them for ages but I must say after @Floid_Maniac sent me one I have discovered the joy that this inexpensive stick brings and it contains tallow which is nearly always a plus so thank you A. You have also opened my eyes to The Speick soap stick also well done that man!

If you can find the Wilkinson Sword sticks go for them. COMPLETELY different from the bowl offering and they are tallow and lanolin. Really good!

Will do, I've been going mad for tallow based shave sticks this week! Top tip! Thanks.

I think I'll swing by Wilko or Superdrug and pick up some of the Palmo shave sticks, I'm really liking the shave cream so I'll give the stick a go.

Superdrug have also got Ingram Menthol shave cream for less than 2 quid so I'll pick that up as well.

Don't be alarmed if the Ingram cream is on the runny side. It's still good to use !

I have a hankering for a really nice brush, something extravagant after saving a few quid on the Maseto brushes recently something along the lines of a Simpsons special or an M&F.

Wren I'm in town tomorrow I'll look out for Blue Stratos and Denim aftershaves.

Any suggestions what shops to look in?

Blue Stratos is in Savers at the moment. I had to get my Denim online

 

[Rohleder]

Nothing much...

On the look out for more vintage Sheffield straights.

Another small Simpsons brush, something like a Duke 1 in Best.

Also feeling the pull of Penhaligons, I need some Endymion in my life.

Endymion is the dog's gnads. Ive about 70mL of the stuff at my disposal but don't want to use it up too quickly, ha.

If you have a Watt brothers where you are they have a selection of old school aftershaves,I got my Blue Stratos there
As mentioned Savers also have Blue Stratos.

I have sold more than I purchased recently. I even finished 1 cream before I ordered 2 soaps.

I have always wanted a Brad Sears / M&F L7 handle in Purple Haze. So yesterday, I ordered a Brad Sears / M&F L7 handle in Blue & Orange stripes. Seems logical to me.
