[ronweston]

A new week has begun at SOTD, Gentlemen!!!

And this week it is the "WEEK BEFORE CHRISTMAS" Theme Week!

It's time to be creative, Gents. Spice up your photos with seasonal joy. Special effects or associational additions to your shave gear will be most welcome. Enjoy yourselves.

Remember, all of our theme weeks are just suggestions so please feel free to post any photo, with any gear and any style you chose, or contribute by telling us what you used in your shave, with comments on the shave, if you desire.

Color, B&W, sepia or a photograph with any type of artistic touch you wish is always desired.

Be Adventuresome!​
