“ShaveWorld.com” delivers razor blades to your home on a schedule by mail, ensuring you always have a fresh blade. (You can also just order one-offs, but what’s the point?) [Shaveworld] (Thanks, John!)

Thanks to the charity of a Dethroner reader, we’ve been thinking about “Drops,” a liquid post-splashdown toilet odor eliminator. If you predict or routinely present above average post-defecatory bouquet you can simply press a button, passing olfactory judgement from your personal throne of kings. (Despite the name of this website, we do recommend keeping a […]

John Allan Shaving Roll Up

Although I’ve gone all electric with my shaving gear at the moment, both because I have a beard that only needs modest trimming and because it makes travel easier, this “Roll Up” from John Allan is god damn appealing. It’s basically a strip of leather with interlocking pockets inside that hold various cremes and tinctures, […]

The Democrat’s campaign committee picked up the tab for two haircuts at $400 each by celebrity stylist Joseph Torrenueva of Beverly Hills, Calif., according to a financial report filed with the Federal Election Commission.
FEC records show Edwards also availed himself of $250 in services from a trendy salon and spa in Dubuque, Iowa…

Shaving the Serial Killer Way

Although it’s impossible to argue with the effectiveness of a hot, pre-shave towel on a rough beard, it’s strange to think that men wouldn’t want to wake up each morning and strap a Hannibal Lector mask to their head before putting a gleaming razor next to their throat.

The Spore Report

For the last month I have been hitting the elliptical with surprisingly regularity—at least every other day, for upwards of thirty minutes at a stretch. It was part of a planned regimen to prepare myself to visit the local CrossFit gym, although I have yet to muster the gumption to visit. In fact, I probably […]

This one came in last week from a longtime reader, who asks the right guy the right question…
What is your take on men and nail polish? I love having painted toenails and the ladies seem to really dig it. I have even been taken by the arm by a total stranger to have […]

There’s no punchline in this commercial, which may be why I like it. It’s simply Big Bruce on the ivories, surrounded by beauties, doing a lounge cover of Duran Duran’s “Hungry Like a Wolf.” Of course he’s advertising Old Spice’s new “Ahoy” body spray, which will never soak my polo shirt or ragged baseball cap.
Bruce’s […]

Michael Patrick, writer for Beauty News NYC, has gone where few would dare. While it’s becoming increasingly commonplace for men to shave their boys and prune the upper hedges, to mix metaphors, only the rarified gent has the stones to get them (gulp) waxed. Patrick took this one for the team and reported back:
Diane started […]

And it’s back to Men’s Health once again, as they’ve posted a list of seven—count’em, seven!—grooming tips for men as suggested by women. Which is to say, if you pay attention to these areas and do just what they suggest, you’ll be that much less disgusting to them. Because, y’know, men are nasty. Would you […]
