Grooming and Hygiene

[Matt]

It is the best. Enjoy.

I bet my question is covered somewhere in the preceding 46 pages of this thread but I was unable to find it. I blame it on a 61 year old’s technological shortcomings. So with that preamble offered as a lame justification…
I’d be happy to get recommendations on good options for electrical nose and ear hair trimmers. The manual ones I have, paired with weaker eyesight, aren’t getting the job done adequately.

[Matt]

I have never had any luck with the electrical trimmers. Now I tweeze my ear hairs and wax my nose hairs.

@Matt This just hurts reading it...

@ZackB @Matt
Curious about this AKT deodorant balm. Do you just squirt a dab into your hands then rub it under your arm pits?

[Matt]

@Mizmazzle Yes! You’ll love it. Just a pea sized amount on each pit and rub it in. It’s a light paste consistency. You will not believe how good it is.

[Matt]

@indigostiff it’s not so bad. After the first few times. Katie waxes my back sometimes. I’m into it.

[ZackB]

@Mizmazzle what Matt said. It leaves no mess and it smells great. Don’t think I’ll ever buy anything else. The little samples seem to be lasting a long time too.

@Matt whats your favorite scent out of the sample pack?

[SKT]

I’ve got some AKT coming my way this week whatever the gray flavor is. Looking forward to trying it out. @Matt how does AKT compensate you again?

[ZackB]

@SKT that might be favorite. I like that one and the lighter purple one they have.

[SKT]

@ZackB that’s good to hear. Can’t wait to try it out.

[Mizmazzle]

Yeah I’ve been looking for a better deodorant for awhile. Been using Tom’s for the last couple years. It does an ok job. I’d like something that smells good and has a subtle fragrance that lingers a good part of the day.

I’ve been using the orange one and love it. Subtle fragrance that works very well. Can’t thank @Matt enough.

AKT is All Kinds of Tremendous!

Purple/grey/orange - love all three I have. Switch ‘em up depending on how I feel on a particular day. Can’t imagine bothering to look for anything else. Ever.

Thanks @Matt

[Mizmazzle]

Are you guys noticing any difference or benefit (politics aside) from ordering directly from AKT or using Amazon?

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

I paid duty/customs/fees when ordering direct from AKT. But I’m Canadian, that won’t help you much….

[goosehd]

I ordered directly from them as it was easier for UK to Canada. Amazon might work better for you.

…adding to @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot post:

Our de minimis is $20CAD and we pay duty on just about everything outside of the country. We do get breaks from retailers once in a while and are very grateful when we do! Ironheart being one of them

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle i hate Amazon…but I ordered through them ugh

[Matt]

Last time I ordered directly from AKT I got the tube turn key as a free gift. I think Amazon might be easier though and if you have Prime the shipping is free. The Orange is probably my favorite but they’re all good.
