Soap and Deodorant: How do you stay Fresh?

Soap doesn’t work.
Just makes you stink like soap.
All you need is a long, sharp blade and the resolve to remove the stink.

If any of you want to follow my morning routine I put together a little video.

If you make jokes about not showering I can only assume you are one of the stank niggas funking up the tournaments.

I remember back in 2000-2001 I was competing at a Marvel 2 tournament in Chinatown. It was cold as fuck outside but anyone who has been to a tournament knows that heat inside is ridiculous. So I am going through the brackets and have to go up against Arturo Sanchez. As soon as I stand next to the guy, my eyelashes start curling up. The funk coming from him could’ve woken up the dead. I played the rest of the match at an angle so I could get some fresh air, but I couldn’t see the screen clearly nor could I play the same.

I lost and was never more thankful.

Maybe there should be a Hygiene Foul you can call at future tournaments, these niggas maybe a step ahead of everybody and just using stank as a strategy.

That Bateman hygiene swagger is real

  • Cheap ($5 at Target)
  • Has a robust natural scent but it’s not OP either
  • Feels good on the body, makes the face feels immaculate, balls so fresh so clean
  • I use it in my hair to help get the waves flowing like the Pacific
  • Gives that beard stubble the hook up

With the Old Spice deo assist, thinking of switching to an unscented deo though because the soap smells nice enough on it’s own.

In the shower, I use a scrubbing rag made out of plastic fibers. Imagine one of the rougher loofahs but not bunched up. I like it a lot more than a loofah though since I can wash it out more thoroughly and spread it to air dry.

Gillette deodorant is the only deodorant that actually last 24+ hours from my experience. Axe products that aren’t sprays are shit. Baby Powder is underrated.

axe deo BURNS yo skin… :wasted:

other than old spice zanzibar, I like every man jack mint deo but it doesn’t last all day.

Shit is five dollars a bar and you’re calling it cheap?!??! I can buy a whole box of like 25 bars for ten dollars, I’d only get a single bar for five dollars if it was made of pure unicorn fat and melted bristlecone pine extract. That being said that utility soap does smell incredible, I give it two big thumbs up.

Also this was already mentioned but Dr.Bronners soap is fucking serious, mintier than any soap, toothpaste, or candy on the face of the earth. You wash yourself with Bronners and it’ll feel like you’ve exposed your bare genitals to the most extreme himalayan winds. Also there’s a bunch of crazy shit written on the bottle so it keeps you entertained while you bathe! Also comes with a hefty pricetag though…

Personally I’m all about soap that smells like incense. That way I can be dank even when im not dank.

Usually i just go with cheap bar soap though and let my deodorant do all the work.

Why don’t you try it first and then report back to us?

Anyone who uses AXE is not a grown man. Leave that offending bullshit behind and pick up a grown-up deodorant.

What are you implying, my OP explained my daily ritual in depth. Try what first?

Dove bar soap, generic head & shoulders or pantene shampoo. Curve cologne. Old Spice deodorant.

I have a beard, and I’ve been using just a trimmer to keep it from growing crazy, and I just use water + a cheap razor to take care of the “outlines” (whatever they’re called).

Using Dr B soap sounds interesting, but I don’t want to use a loofa :frowning:

Axe was that locker room deodorant. Kids would bring cans to school and spray after gym.

I was out of high school when AXE came into the market. I still, however, run into men my age, and some older, who spray it on as if it’s an attractive scent. It’s pungent and invasive. I tell any man who wants his place or himself to smell better, go for woody scents or smells that are muted. Don’t shout your scent to those who are around you.

Says the junkie in soiled clothing sporting needle marks…

I am wearing a tie with fishnet so I must be cool guys!!!

I use TRESemmé‎ shampoo and conditioner for hair. As for body wash, I use Irish Spring and some type of scrubber. I also don’t use deodorant since I want to the girls to smell my pheromones.

I should go find some natural and organic soaps. That kind of stuff is way better.

if you want to go natural, wash your hair with baking soda. I’ve been on that tip for a few months. took some getting used to but I won’t go back now.
