Thanks K,

But my wife is like _addicted_ to these Korean beauty stuff so I do know 'em well!!!

Me, more of an old-school L’Oréal slash Kérastase type guy 😃

But Doug, Karin is like Tinkerbell …

![Tinker-Bell-Gif-2](https://forum.thehighwaystar.com/uploads/default/original/1X/57c35e46ac839f5bb5e96197bbe3b892e777c5b8.gif)  
… she sprinkles her fairy dust over anything in wild abandon - and that is exactly why she is irreplaceable! Sticking to the point is overrated and in any case: wimmin never do, everything is of equal importance to them and demands their undivided attention.

Don‘t be such a Captain Hook about it!

Interesting.

Does the hubby use “Karin Fris” products then?

I wash my hair with whatever shower gel we have and my face with tab water. On hot days I sometimes use the one from the fish pond.

Are there really alternatives?

I actually think this is a very sensible solution.

A bit of off-topic banter is part of any forum, of course, but lately some threads have had one post about Deep Purple, Rainbow, Whitesnake, Gillan, Blackmore or whatever the subject was… followed by half a page about politics, breakfast, the state of the world and probably somebody’s neighbour’s cat. 😄

After a while it does get a little difficult to remember what the thread was supposed to be about in the first place.

So yes, I quite like the idea of having one designated corner where anything goes and nobody has to pretend it is somehow still connected to the original topic.

Basically: organised chaos. Very civilised. Very British. 😉

It is good, and not that expensive! They use a lot of snail gel. Yeah, from real snails: really die-hards have living snails crawling all over their faces.  
I’m not that enthusiastic 😊

Now you give me all kinds of good ideas! 😁  
Sadly it’s not René who is making them, because then I would get them for free, no it is the famous Danish hairdresser René Fris who is the great inventor. Do you know him?

Some guys can get by with very little products and still be amazing, others have to have the whole regime organised just to get out of the door 😃  
I think it’s the individual taste that rules here 😊

But I guess you don’t use Edith’s products then ☺

And this reminds me Uwe, on the photo here, what is the reddish thing in your hair?

A garter 😁 you seem to amaze me over and over 😃

The stick twirling thing is going ok, but sadly so many ill people have found their way to me, Ich habe nur wenig Zeit zum Üben.  
But I am not a quitter ☺

Ahh cannot open the link…

That’s teach me to read posts out of order. First I had visions of you with a pair of knickers on your head, then I thought you meant you go full Frank N Furter is client meetings… THEN I read the post above.

Well, a reference to the great Tim Curry is rather apt at the time, don’t you think?

But being more the conservative type, I generally prefer lingerie on wimmen as opposed to myself.

You’re Joe King, right, Julio? Or had the military juntas of yore _verboten_ Frank-N-Furter?
