His & Hers Shave Den...

[Speedwell68]

Recently got SWMBO into DE shaving. TBH it was her that pushed me into it as she was the one that started complaining about the prices of cartridge blades in the first place. Women's carts are even more expensive than men's. Her Wilkinson Sword Quattro blades were £1 a pack more expensive than my Quattro blades, just because they are pink.

Anyway here you go, our bathroom windowsill now looks like this...

His...

Hers...

She doesn't seem to have any ADs yet, but something tells me that we are going to need a better storage/display solution.

I'm going to guess that her AD will begin by reaching over to the other side of the window sill. Only after she's tried everything you have will the true AD kick in.

She's got quite some catching up to do.

Well we already share blades, she is helping me work through 100 Derbys. I think the aftershaves are safe and she has tried all my creams. So fingers crossed she will stay with the stuff she likes.

She has a nice razor.

I like the way you (and her) think and have synchronized your shaving lives . If you start seeing signs that one is trying to out-RAD the other, talk to a professional ...this is where trouble starts, and you two won't even know what hit you...by then, it may be too late.

Cheers,
Robert

Yes it is. I kind of wish that I got that instead of my Muhle R89. It seems to have the same head as the R89, but although it has a synthetic grip on the handle it seems slightly heavier and better balanced. I am itching to have a go.

We are both beginning to see personal grooming as a hobby we do together, seriously. We are both seeing past the hype surrounding most modern personal grooming products. There is a shop local to us that sells organic soaps, solid shampoo, solid conditioners and much more. It is our plan to rid our bathroom of mass market products and all that crap that comes in disposable plastic bottles. We are both of the opinion that the bathroom should be a room of total pleasure.

As we have taken this attitude we are going to keep our buying habits to needs rather than wants. I seem to have my ADs under control now, well almost.

My hat's off to you...that is great . Doing things together and thinking and operating as one (well as far as grooming is concerned). My wife and I do the same...as much as we can.

While it is nice to have separate hobbies it is better to share them. IMHO.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Very impressive.

 

[Gustav]

Very impressive indeed but WHAT IS that old spice thing in the back? Do not tell me it is a can of goo of some sort or else we shall have to have words with your wife (she seems like a nice reasonable woman). If it is canned goo, I expect you to:

1. Get rid of it or at least hide it.
2. Post a picture where it is not featured,

Apart from that, you are a lucky man to have married such a gem of a wife. Now all you need is a secret stash to keep all the really good stuff.

 

[mdunn]

Very cool. It's a good excuse to buy more kit, too..

"but honey, I bought this new soap for you! Oh, you don't like the scent. What a shame, I may as well give it a go"

 

[pauls51]

There is only one thing worse/better than one household member with AD and that's two!!!!

Love both your work!

 

[Cheesehead Transplant]

You are a lucky man! So, who is going to keep whom in check regarding AD?

 

[a_bit_crafty]

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I see something seriously wrong with this picture. She has quite a bit of work to do on her shelf.

Very cool. It's a good excuse to buy more kit, too..

You do know that we women know you guys do that, right?

It is deodorant spray.

I use it for my hair, leaves it soft and feeling groovy.

Yeah that Boots Bay Rum is a pretty nice Hair Tonic. I just wish I had more hair!
