Grooming and Hygiene

[Matt]

@Joberwocky go to the Toucan Trading home page and keep scrolling down.

Haha, thanks @Matt I scrolled though all the haircare and didn't see it, woulda never just scrolled down on the homepage

Edit: darn, I want it, but the $27 is a hard pill to swallow

[Matt]

No sweat.  If you get it let me know about the smell.  It sounds awesome.  If scents aren’t a big driver for you check out Nostalgic Grooming.  They have some pretty crazy scents like Fruit Loops and Orange Soda that are really cool.

Yeah, it was $18 on the SR site.  Canadian markup I guess.

[Joberwocky]

For me on the SR site, I woulda nabbed some oil or beard care at the same time and hit the free shipping threshold.

The regular Gray Ghost is still very good.  I also love the American Gardens clay.  Very strong hold with a nice matte finish and a clean wash out.

[Matt]

If anyone’s looking for a really good aftershave I highly recommend Madame Scodioli.  They have a bunch of scent profiles.  I’ve used Step Right Up and it’s dope af.  I got an email from them today that they have a new line of beard oils out.  Im currently unbearded but I’m sure it’s amazing.

I've been looking for a killer new beard oil @Matt as I'm working towards being my best bearded self again, may just have to check that out.  If I get some I'll be sure to post about it

The Ad Astra tonic has espresso in the scent, I'm immediately 50% sold 

[Matt]

Yeah, don’t hesitate.  If the beard oil is anything like the aftershave it should be killer.

So after reading through I decided to order some gray ghost and northern lights. Should come in the next day or two. I looked at the Canadian toucan limited run stuff but damn they wanted a ton to ship it.

I also grabbed some firsthand clay. That just came today seems really cool! Should get to use some tomorrow

I'm with you on the shipping @kkibbey23 
Tell me how ya like the gray ghost, it's money

[kkibbey23]

Those of you who wanted that limited run shear removal stuff but shipping was too much…..

I reached out to toucan supply, they added a free shipping option to USA if you spend over 55cad

I’ve got some coming my way[emoji41]

Damn solid deal

[Matt]

That was smart, nice work.

I’m using this today.  One of my favorites.  This is a special addition, I don’t know what the regular scent is but I love this one too much to try it.  It’s currently on sale so I strongly recommend it.

Using this Shear Revival comb.  Also a fave for me…

[Matt]

Also @kkibbey23 the FH clay is excellent.  I’ve used all their stuff and the clay is my favorite.  The Northern Lights is another of my staples.  You pulled an excellent haul.

Got my Madame Scodioli beard oil in the mail yesterday as well as one of their balms.  The balm is a bourbon scent and smells great, and I ended up getting the Ad Astra beard oil that has a coffee smell to it.  Will be using in the morning, I'll get back about how the products are, my original impressions are good.

[Matt]

Excellent!

[Joberwocky]

After listing I ended up getting the Toucan Trading x Shear Revival pomade, it's on the way, will keep ya's posted

Any recommendations for an earthy sort of cologne? Like sandalwood or patchouli but more of a manly smell instead of a hippe scent? Not sure if that makes sense but I figured I'd ask here.

[Joberwocky]

I had tried a couple scents from DS & Durga that I liked, since you can set up a sampler with them.  I wore "bowmakers" for a while since it was lighter, but something like "amber kiso" sounds like it would be in the realm of what you're looking for.
