hullo..
just wanted to chime in (finally) and say THANKS for sharing this UBER LATHER method. i first discovered this thread which led me to Dan-O's so i suppose the mucho thanks goes to him. but dawgfan's enthusiasm is what first hooked me.
a'ight, let me back the truck up: been lurkin for some time now - been shavin my headskies for well over a year (chose to beat mother N), found the site toward the beginning of the year and really, i should be offering thanks to many more of you. to put it simply for now, ill offer my gratitude to
Tyler & friends. ive tried many, many techniques shared on this forum - LSS (long story short) HEADBLADE/TRIPLE SENSORS/HEADSLICK is what i settled on. i grew tired of trying new things, spending 2much$ in search of a closer shave (loathe my dark head shadow) - for some time i thought Fusion would end up as my blade choice 4life, but blades became too expensive and quickly i learned that the Headblade IS my tool. a bald man who was a headshaver many years before me crafted this tool and offered this gift and the bottom line is - HOW could i not support that product?! and then it turns out that said product is a brilliant one for one like myself who chose this (lack of) hairstyle. after 2 attempts with it, i became a master of my dome-mane. a'ight, L
underL on that one.. i introduced the HB to my dad (stocking stuffer to him last Christmas), friends and a co-worker and have never been happier sharing a product. so i should offer thx here to
Todd & friends as well!
N-E HOO... my main point to post this HERE was i thought i was G to G - good to go with my shaving ways until this damn Uber Lather thread creeps up on me several weeks back and initially (like dfan) i think to myself: naw, that's too much trouble. i dont got time for that noise, im always in a rush in the morning as it is. but OF COURSE it stuck in my mind for a few days and i came back to it, watched the youtube vid and soon found myself at B&B Works/Rite Aide/Walmart in the following days and then i whipped this stuff up one day and painted this thick white coat onto my fat head and snatched the ol' HB and readied my hand. i couldnt believe the first swipe! it was like day 2 of using the Headblade. and like dfan said 5pm rolls around and i'm still smooth as i was in the morning. WTF??? im usually rough around the edges at this hour (and not just mood-wise). several days go by and the same results occurred.
so i fell in love after only four days of meeting her
my Headblade loves me even more for he's never had a better mating session. IF i could offer any extra advice on the UL (although you guys already gave all one would need) it would be simply to pull the skin tight on the upper sides of the dome (
at least these areas for myself). ive learned my fore/middle fingers pressing/pulling up the skin there and swiping up AtheG gets it that much closer. so..yeah...im hooked on this stuff
THanks again and again (and again) for this site. long overdue expression of gratitude. you fellas are so helpful and encouraging to a young dude like myself. dealing with MPB for too many years was miserable - low self esteem, lack of conf, not wanting to go out etc. those days are (SO) happily gone and you guys have such a positive, inviting attitude for those stuggling in those miserable days.
great job, fellers
hope you dont mind me saying so here, killing a few birds with one skipping stone.
