Alas, I've got a couple of dens...

Nein. Ich finde das echt lustig. (Da ich nicht weiß, was GRF ist, kann ich Sie wahrscheinlich nicht dabei unterstützen. Würden Sie mir bitte zunächst erklären, was es bedeutet?)

How many shaves do you get from a ripe melon?

The melon is used to practice shaving.

You need to have 2 melons there. That way we can say, "nice melons."

**VfBStuttgart** · 03-31-2009, 04:21 PM

In an ideal world, yes, the more melons the better. Even though I am largely responsible for the side tracking of this conversation, and I have no "real" pics of a shave den, perhaps it would be good to shift focus away from large fruits (as entertaining as they are) onto something more razory, brushy, and lathery.

You may not be helping the situation there.

Would you agree that larger melons are better?

**mretzloff** · 03-31-2009, 04:49 PM

Eugen, wow, just wow. Nice den!

What are the brushes you have?

You've used a lot of C.O. Bigelow for just three weeks.

What is your roommate's reaction to this?

I got the C.O. Bigelow as a Christmas gift from one of my friends, so I've had that for a bit longer. I guess I meant to say I've been using a DE for 3 weeks, but wet shaving for probably a month and a half. Still, most of my acquisitions have been since I got my first ball-handle tech.

And as for my roommate...He dropped out a few weeks into the school year, so I've had a double since then. Two bookshelves, two beds, two desks, two closets, and a full dresser instead of half of one.

Whenever I'm in the bathroom mixing the lather and shaving though, I get a few guys asking me what I'm doing.

Lucky you.

Now, imagine if you get a new roommate and he's a wet shaver too.

Just a collection of mostly old Gillettes and some basic soap and cream, a simple brush, bowl and cup. I use a cold rinse, witch hazel and the organic hemp lotion to finish.
