6 months in: The Shave Den

[haagiboy]

Hi there!

Just wanted to post some pics of my shave den! Thanks to me being a 22 year old student, I had to live on frozen pizza for a whole month because of my AD's. But it was so worth it!

What am I missing? Silvertip Brush... Yeah, I have posted a B/S/T for one.

Also missing, some items borrowed to a firend of mine: Gillette Slim, Fat handled tech and a couple of other things I don't remember :/
AND, I forgot to take picture of my hanging Ambrose horse leather strop.

So yeah, check it out, tell me what you think!

And sorry for the crappy pics. Took them with my mobile camera!

Wow! If only I had known I could have that burly a den at 6 months in from eating frozen pizza, I would have been all over it! Congrats, looks you are off to an exceptional start!

 

[AmishFury]

frozen pizza? what luxury you get with a shaving related AD

i had to live on ramen when my milsurpitis kicked in hard but it was worth it

 

[haagiboy]

Haha! All those troubles we have to endure for our AD's...

Nice collection you got AmishFury!!

Very nice den !! I have to say you put your money to much better use than I did when I was in college. I lived on cereal , tuna fish , pop tarts , and ding dongs so I was able to purchase as much beer as I possibly could.

Wow! You're off to a great start! I have been doing it for years and you have me beat! Then again, I would probably be divorced by now if mine looked like this. Ha!

Hahahah!

The only thing I feel I am lacking is a Silvertip brush. But I just love the prickling feeling of my mühle pure badger on my face!
But I HAVE to get my hands on a silvertip! And a fatboy! (Zephyr might have one for me)

When I was a student virtually all of money went on beer!

 

[jakespoppy]

Very nice! It's fun to see how you branched out in multiple directions, too, with razors, brushes, soaps, creams, after shaves, even a bowl.

Amish, gotta love the CZ model 52!Course, I'm a sucker for anything with the CZ stamp on it! I used to have a CZ 70, but sold it in one of my less wise moments. My wife has a CZ75 Semi-Compact 9mm, and I've got a CZ2075 RAMI-P 9mm.

I'm thinking you might possibly like Russian bolt action rifles, as well!

Impressive, most impressive!

Nice collection.

Need a Silvertip? Make one. find ya a vintage handle and order a knot. Ones that I've done now I've spent easily under 50 bucks and theyre worth it.

Nice collection! I've got the clinique moisturizer which I like because its not greasy. Haven't tried the scrub yet.

Are your studies going OK? As a concerned parent I noticed videos games in the background but not much in the way of notes and books. I guess those must be in your " study den"

Nice den! Welcome to B&B and well done, young man. Keep up the great work and don't even worry about terms you may hear around here such as "AD."

Haha ^^ I actually have a bookshelf to the left of the TV which is stuffed to the maximum with books

I am studying industrial chemistry and bioengineering for those who wondered!
And it's going alright

Thanks! I have been on B&B for 6 months, and everything I've bought is from the B/S/T forum and online vendors

And yeah, had some AD's. First razors, then after shave balms, and then soap. And now I am looking for a Silvertip to try out

I believe I am satisfied for now! Even got 2 straights which I am learning now. Have had 7 shaves in total with them and have a journal on the straight forum.

It works like a charm for me atleast!
And you see that round yellowish tub from the body shop there? It's my gf's facial mask. I know I know...

But it works WONDERS! Wouldn't believe it before I tried it! And yes, I use it with the curtains closed -.-
