Wednesday, March 26th, 2008In part one I gave you 6 quick tips for shaving your balls because I know you probably couldn’t wait to pick up a razor and to do your thing;).
As I’ve told you the earlier article, scrotum shaving is not a thing to take lightly; it takes some patience and extra care to achieve the perfect results, which is of course, having a soft, itch-free scrotum. When you start shaving your scrotum your skin down there is not as prepared compared to the skin on other parts of your body. In fact the scrotum is where the most sensitive skin is located.
If you’re considering shaving your scrotum, get to know your skin type first. It is strongly advised to stay away from this practice if you have a sensitive skin – unless you like itching and bad irritations after shave. Having said that, let’s start with a few don’ts for shave time:
· Don’t use an electric shaver
· Don’t use wax
· Don’t use chemicals to remove scrotum hair
The Latest Hair Trends for Men.
Thursday, March 20th, 2008I really can’t give any advice on new hair styles. I know what’s hot and what’s not but I’m (razor shaved) bold for more than 8 years now. Someone that is eligible for giving advice is Michael Barrows and he’s the author of this article. I hope you all enjoy it.
Today’s man hair style can be either long and textured or super short and tight and still be considered trendy and at the height of fashion. Some men’s hair styles require gel, mousse or pomade while others don’t even need to be combed. The truth is that now more than ever there are numerous ways to achieve a stylish and trendy man hair cut. That means that there are a lot of different styles for men who are looking for the perfect man hair style to choose from.
While the man’s hair style is less rigid than it was in the 80s and requires a lot less goo to accomplish, the modern man hair cut is still best served by a little styling. No, you do not need to spend hours in front of the mirror coaxing every strand into place, but a little gel never hurt any man’s hair style that I know of.
Inspiration for an Angel Tattoo, a Chinese Symbol Tattoo or Maybe a Koi Tattoo!
Saturday, February 16th, 2008
It is very natural to feel nervous when you decide to get your first tattoo. Most people say the initial first moment of the tattoo making is scary but then you quickly get relaxed and comfortable with the whole thing around it. Some people describe tattoo making somewhat resembles the sensation you feel at your first time shaving. You might undergo some discomfort or even pain for some days after you have left the tattoo shop, it demands a lot of care and time to show the final results.
Tattooing can be done in two different ways. One it is done with a stencil, you go to a tattoo shop, pick a design and they trace it on your skin and then do the permanent tattooing on it. Second popular way among the people is the customize way where no stencils are used and professionals make the designs freehand. Always assure you are in good hands. Ask friends for their feedback where they got their tattoo done. Look for some of the artist’s finished work.
Shaving your Balls Series Part 1: 6 Quick Tips.
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008Shaving your privates isn’t the easiest thing, you have to take your time for it and of course be gentle doing it. My guess is that you all agree on that. Pubic shaving is literally a sensitive matter.
The skin of your scrotum is very sensitive and is easily irritated and small wounds can occur pretty quick.
So that is why we are starting with the quick tips in this small miniseries. You probably can’t wait to start your big trim. In the next episodes I’ll explain the dos and don’ts more extensively.
1. Trim your hair before you start with your razor. The pubes are much harder and tougher, the razor blades tent to clog up easily which will result in skin irritation. First start with a simple scissor and if necessary a hair trimmer. The scissor will do just fine most of the time.
2. Take a warm shower or put a warm towel around your waist area. Warm temperatures open the pores and makes shaving a lot easier. You can also use a pre-shave oil which also feels good, be sure though to buy sensitive pre-shave oil.
Investing in Whisky is Hot!
Wednesday, December 12th, 2007No my friends, it wasn’t me (I wish it was though;)).
A while back I wrote two articles about investing in Whiskey or Wine and an article about investing in time by buying a quality watch. In the article about investing in time I wrote that you could find great and valuable deals at Sotheby’s and Christie’s. This weekend I ran into this press release with the following headlines.
RAISE YOUR SPIRITS THIS HOLIDAY SEASON AT CHRISTIE’S
First Auction of Spirits to be held in New York Since Prohibition
Looking at what they had to offer I was really surprised, they really had a great assortment. Unfortunately I had missed it because it was last weekend. Not that I had bought a bottle (maybe one of the cheaper ones) but it would have been nice if I could have followed it via the net (if that was possible).
Christie’s had in particular 3 auctions that where really amazing.
The first was a $54,000 bottle of Scottish Macallan. This whisky was distilled at Macallan in Scotland in 1926, bottled in 1986 and rebottled in 2002.
