Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted February 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 Eddie, why the hell didn't I think to just ask you?! (Scratching my jaw and clavicle as I try to type!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 12,450 Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 I've a beard and shaved head.... the Mrs gave me an ultimatum this morning. Trim it or else! Or else, usually means I get whatever came before it done sharpish... so it's getting shaved down to a George Michael tonight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted February 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 I've got hair ties on my shopping list, Mush'. I'll try tying it up, for bed time, before hacking it off. It's sort of 'Me', now, see? People'd hardly recognise me without it. This morning though I particularly noted something: No nightmares. Very little sweat. Very little itching! Like, I'm sitting here now. Have been for fukking Hours. Never give the beard a thought. Never scratch my neck. Walking like a duck, isn't it? Perhaps, if the ties don't work, I can strap a fukking towel to myself, or something? Keep the hairs away from my skin when the shit kicks off in my head. Eddie? You have nightmares?

My Mrs would actually divorce me, if I shaved it off. She insists that I hold onto it, and keep growing it. She shaved my head hast night, and trimmed the beard up a bit. Just evened up the longer bits. Mine seldom annoys me, even in summer. I recon tying it up will help mate. Even putting some oil through it would probably help, but doubt you'd be bothered with that. Either way, it'd be a shame if you had to get rid of it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Congratulations! What do you call yours? A fukking Singlet?! Clothes are clean, mate. It's genuinely just it rubbing on my chest. Then that little sheen of sweat before I wake up? I'm fine, all day. I go to sleep fine. It's ~ for some weird reason ~ that point when, hours later, I start Really waking up. And the skin raking begins. As for these skinny latte boys and their oils? Ask Archie! Fukked if I'd know! Ooohh!!! Do you oil and balm it too? Have you got a lishp? I was asking for fellow men. Not fukking hipsters!

Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted February 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 Ah. Different situation, mate My chin's fine. Never a bother from stubble to this thing. It seems to be this weird reaction between sweat, on my neck / chest and the beard hair contacting it. It's fukking terrible! Ten times worse that you might get from fibreglass loft insulation. I'd think about putting something on my skin. But, stopping a sheen of sweat isn't really practical. Especially when that shit's caused by nightmares in the first place. And there's no stopping those fukkers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
