I can. I've never used shaving gel period since I use an electric razor. I use Nivea for men aftershave lotion though.



What's that? Psychology or philosophy?

I have no idea. I think it's under "ideals and values" but all we do is a seminar on random stuff.

You see I mainly use an electric shaver as well, however if I go too long without shaving (2-3 days) it starts coming in thick, and the electric doesn't really cut it.. and I still have spots, and clumps of fuzz.. especially on the neck under the chin areas.

So at that point I need the old fashion razor, to get a close shave. I grow facial hair obscenely fast, like I'll shave at 6 in the morning and by 5 pm I'll already have the shadow kicking in. Maybe I just haven't had a good electric shaver yet though.

Hmm, maybe that's my problem. I'm strictly electric, since I don't really have much to shave anyway, but it struggles on the throat/neck zone. I'm tempted to buy one of the more expensive brands, but don't know if they're worth it.

Die Hard



I was just thinking how my hair stuff sounds girly. "Garnier Fructis", I'm lazy so I always buy 2 in 1 shampoo conditioner. I also only wash it about once a week (if that) because my hair is so thick it just poofs out. Plus a friend told me you don't really need to wash it much because it just rinses away scalp oils that get trained to produce more oil... or something.



================================================== =====

also, on the hygiene topic, what toothpaste does everyone use? I've been switching it up, went from sensodyne to arm & hammer, to colgate optic white.

I use Pert Plus deep moisturizing shampoo. As for toothpaste, I use Aquafresh cavity protection and have been for years.

I'm like the polar opposite as far as growing facial hair. I shave about once a week.

Are you looking to buy an expensive electric? or just a plain razor?

If you're going to buy a plain razor I'd recommend the Gillette Fusion Pro-Glide, just rinse your face/neck area... apply some shaving gel and shave the neck area with the razor from going up-wards, and you should get a nice shave, cause yeah the neck area can be stubborn.

the Pro-Glide razors aren't too bad price wise like $14. (kind of pricey for an old fashion razor, but they give the best, and most comfortable shave IMO)

If you're looking for an electric... not too sure. I usually go for bargains like a Norelco, or Braun in the 60-80 dollar range. There are some really expensive electric shavers... like $150-200 but I never bothered.. are they really worth the price?

Electric never gives me a full clean shave it feels like. Never used Norelco, is that any better?

Re: Off Topic 2012

Yeah I was thinking electric. My concern is how long they'll last, plus whether they are really that much better than the $30-$40 ones. My upper lip region is difficult to shave because I have a couple moles that always catch a dent when I use a real razor (which I haven't done in at least 10 years)

I've had my Norelco for 9 1/2 years though, as I mentioned earlier, the fact that I only shave about once a week is probably a good part of the reason for its longevity.

Tell her you don't think Zooey is actually there in that scene where she by chance meets JGL in the park at the end, that JGL is just imagining her. That'll mess with her head.

For the record, every time I watch that movie, I think more and more that he's just working things out in his mind at that point. It feels like waaaaaay to big a coincidence for her to actually be there waiting for him.

Spoiler

What if it was just some crazy Fight Club or Momento **** and she never existed at all. It was all in his head.

What is this "shaving" you speak of?

But seriously, I haven't shaved in close to 7 months.

My initial reaction was that that was impossible, but damned if I can think of her saying a single line to someone that wasn't JGL right now.

I'm sure she did, I just can't think of one.

Damn, she did at the karaoke bar. But his friend was super wasted, so he could have just been going along with the charade. Other than that, I don't think she did. That's why the Chinese family was staring at him in IKEA. He was playing house by himself.

Pretty sure Zooey talks to people at work. In fact, I'm also 100% sure she gets hit on by some dude at work. Plus, didn't she have a party? Like...did he just go to a random party and he imagined her being there? That's...really weird.

OTOH, him making up Zooey at the end, that is 100% plausible. Anyone who sides with Zooey is nuts.

I mentioned work on twitter. But that was at first. She drives him crazy, and he begins to make things up. He hallucinated during the expectations vs. reality scene. And he danced with cartoon birds in the middle of the street. ALL THE CLUES ARE THERE.
