I got tickets to see Die Antwoord. I will be getting tickets to at least 2 DMB shows. I bought some beard oil since I got bad skin. And a comb for beard.

I'm clueless as to maintaining it, I get annoyed when it gets all grizzly, so I always end up shaving it. I don't know what to do with it, it's like taking care of a face bonsai. colas has a new favorite as of 04:38 on Feb 6, 2015 |

A big thing to avoid, assuming you don't already, is constantly washing your beard hair. Get it wet, sure but avoid shampooing it every day. Drys everything out too much. Especially in winter which is when you really need those oils.

Moisturizes skin and (somewhat) softens beard hair. It really made it far less itchy when you're growing it out, at least for me. Plus, some of these oils have a fantastic smell. I'm partial to this one myself. I want to make baked goods with it. Yes, you'll feel like a massive Williamsburg lumbersexual hipster. No way to avoid that part of it, I'm afraid.

That was another I was looking at but the one I got is unscented (except for the natural scent of the oils) because I got a sensitive nose I have some of the Honest Amish Beard Balm and that smells good too.

All the flea combs I've seen have been metal. Then again, I've not seen that many flea combs.

Steam had a sale so I bought this game for $2.50. It's a pretty great game and I played it before, very worth the small price of admission. Kind of Portal-esque.

The teeth are not close enough together to be an effective flea comb. Now let the beard/flea comb derail begin.

I keep my beard trimmed short, around a 3 guard on my beard trimmer, so it's too soft to need oils. I bought a refill of blades for my razor to keep my neck from turning into coarse-grit sandpaper, though. I was a little skeptical since they're always getting shilled on podcasts, but they're really drat good blades. Much cheaper than the Mach 3 razor i used to use, and they last a whole lot longer. I'm only shaving my neck and a bit of my above my beard every morning so they're not getting super heavy use, but each cartridge easily lasts me a month. Harry's shave cream and aftershave moisturizer were lackluster and overpriced. Ordered this from Amazon instead, mostly because I love that cool tingly feeling from the eucalyptus & menthol:

I bought a DIY toy SLR camera because I like taking pictures and building things. The thing is, the mirror came with a finger print on it, and after wiping it off, the mirror looked WORSE not better, so I have no idea what the photos will look like. Also, I had to remove a gear to get the photo counter to stop jamming the film. So I have to manually keep track of how many lovely photos are left in my roll of film...But I had a ton of fun bulding it and can't wait to send off my roll to get developed!

I was definately exaggerating, but there are places on the mirror that are smugged so when I look through the viewfinder I cannot tell if my subject is in focus or not. The photos will be lovely no matter what because it is a toy camera.

Enjoy this excellent piece of high theater. I especially enjoyed the pivotal role that General Butt-loving Naked had as the Antagonist in developing Elder Arnold Cunningham throughout the second act. Excellent show.

My literal seconds of looking at the tokyo milk website have not provided me with an answer so I'll ask here, do they do men's scents? I'm looking for a new cologne.

Most fragrances can be pretty unisex, as everyone's body chemistry brings out different notes, and everyone's scent of smell brings recognizes different notes. My best suggestion is to just go to a Sephora, grab a few of them and look at what scents it has. Spray it on a test strip and give it a few seconds, then waft it to see if you enjoy the smell. If you enjoy it, ask them for a sample and they'll fill a small plastic sampler up for you.

They have a ton of different Tokyo Milk men's colognes on Amazon. They're pretty cheap for cologne too.

Like others said, not necessarily, but there is some [to me] that smell really unisex. Sandalwood is unisex, no? Anyways, Margot Elena who does Tokyo Milk also does Library of Flowers: https://www.libraryofflowers.com/c/eau-de-parfum Imo Willow and Water, The Forest and other green scents smell unisex to me but you'll have to decide that for yourself.

Thanks for the advice folks. I'll have to try and track them down in person, i suppose. I find the major manufacturers of men's colognes smell pretty same-y, so a unique scent is what I'm after, provided it smells good of course. I really like Diesel's Only The Brave, but I'm out of it and dumb as it sounds I still associate Diesel with douchebaggery.
