Not open for further replies.
Welcome to a new week Gents.

This week will be a "FREE" week so post anything you like. Your imagination
(and what you have in your shave den)
is the only limit.


That being said for those that wish to participate...

Friday September 11th, 2015 will be an optional Memorial theme day for all those that paid the highest price for the attacks on the Word Trade Center Twin Towers in New York.
So if you would like to participate please do so.

As always the posted themes are just suggestions to keep things fun, however please post your shave of the day either in text, or photo regardless of what you choose.

For those celebrating we hope you and your families have a wonderful Labor Day Holiday on Monday, and enjoy your week!

** Next week September 14-20 will be artisan week**
As always if you have suggestions for a theme week please do not hesitate to PM us.
