Johnnie, Saturday afternoon, bad idea!!!! The crowd will kill you; it will be packed. I like the offerings from Lexus, Audi, Jaguar and Bugatti. Lexus seem to be focusing on their new IS (250 and 350) and hybrid (GS and RX) engines. They grew the largest crowd. Audi showcased their new Q7 SUV; impre...

Tony, We had gone to the L.A. Car Show yesterday. We came across the Cayman. People were confused about this product. Where does Porsche place this car? What market segment are they going after? We were told it could rival the flagship 911 in overall performance (less hp than the 911) and technology...

Yes, I have tried it. It was named after ME The regular will sting if you have sensitive skin. I don't have sensitive skin and it stings. I like that feeling and the sting soon goes away and it starts to really cool. The sensitive formula is also of the same quality, but without as much bite. You a...

Richard, I have that same age old neck area problem as well. I've used just about all the above techniques mentioned. However, when I pull my injector out, I find that I get a closer and smoother shave in that problem area. Perhaps it is the maneuverablity of the injector. My DE's. do not handle as ...

Welcome f308gt4.....glad to have ya! :D Question. What should we call you? Of course, giving your signture name is an option. Referring to you as your username (f308gt4)is a bit sterile. As you may have noticed, we are a pretty close group here. So, give us something a little more personable. Have f...

Check with someone whom you trust, that's around you . Perhaps, they can pick up the scent on you. Sometimes our nose like to play with us. :)

Count me in the camp that doesn't use a stand. Chris M's explanation is what convinced me. Basically, he said once you get the excess water out of a brush - that which can be shaken out or dried with a towel - gravity will have no effect on the moisture that remains in the head. This is due to capi...

Placement of your brush........

Greedings, I know this is an old and tiresome sudject; hopefully the inquiry has a new twist to it. Perhaps, some of the newer members might get some benefit from this rehashing. With the upper end brushes (true silvertips, finest, supers, extra, whites and etc.), do you tend to use a brush holder/s...

Welcome MJ.

Start out slowly and have a good time. Spread out your purchases and have them make sense. You do not want to get into "The Flavor Of The Month Buying". Work on your technique and continue to acquire knowledge. And then and only then; Go For Broke :P Enjoy!
