Weekly Personal Maintenance 


I had this idea a while ago, but never put it into action. Well - here it is: A timelapse recording of my weekly head shave. Thanks to Boinx Software Ltd., who come up with such nice titles as iStopMotion, which I used to record this. Oh, b.t.w.: This will be a part of a bigger project I'm thinking of.
P.S.: The dark spots on my shoulders and forehead are little clusters of cut hair ;-)

Schon möglich ;-) Sagen wir so: Ich hab mich dran erinnert, dass es StopMotion-Animation gibt und dachte mir, alles was "vorher-nachher"-Ergebnisse liefert, eignet sich eigentlich ganz gut.

I noticed that, too in the beginning: There is supposed to be a little soundtrack to it, but sometimes that doesn't play. In my case, quitting my browser and restarting it, did the trick. Don't know, why that is... - but: There are no words, true ;-)

You know this vid reminds me of my older brother who will be turning 38 btw. He sports a bald head and does the exact same thing. What is it about the males in my life wearing bald heads, and I know others. Only thing my bro likes goat tee (did I spell that right?) and sometimes full beards. What's the little note by your mirror? ;) OK NOW I am gone for bed.

It's just very convenient to keep it that way, Keisha. No fuzz whatsoever, you never need to worry, what your hair looks like, whether you need to wash it or not. I like to allocate as much time as possible to doing things I really enjoy. Anything along the lines of household or personal maintenance doesn't exactly fall into that category. I'm not messy, though, I just prefer to get it over and done with as soon as possible (might be different for you ladies, with e.g. taking a bath and spending near hours on that, or getting a manicure or whatnot. I guess, in that area, I'm an almost stereotypical male, I'm afraid...)

I know that it is, but I like to see men with hair on their heads especially those who wear nice styles. Believe me it is hard trying to convince a guy who wears it this way for very long time to try growing his hair out! We all have our own style, don't we? Does your head get cold in the winters or do you wear a little beanie? haha. I am with you on the personal maintenance. I cannot afford to shave my head though. ;( I've been suggested to do so by a man who wears a bald head. Tired of hearing me complain about my hair. I hate cleaning up house. It takes all day it seems.

hahahhaha...I do like to soak in the tub but not as long as you think us LADIES do. It helps me to release tension from during the day. If it is a shower, I am out 30 minutes top! Baths about 45 mins to an hour! I've been told I take too long getting dressed. That's only due to being indecisive. Manicures I don't get done often. I keep the nails well kept on my own. You had some ladies in your life who were high maintenance? We like to look good for you guys. Don't slap us on our fannies for that. ;)

"Own style" - I wouldn't call it that. I've seen so many men "wear" it like that. In that regard, I've become pretty much mainstream for men my age.
Winter: A famous fashion celebrity, who wishes to remain unnamed - for the yellow press would talk up an affair between the two of us - designed a hot water bag for me to wear in winter. It's actually cleverly designed, as it is just invisible when daylight falls on it. As soon as I come in from outdoors, people start thinking I'm an alien from outer space with that thing on my head and escape in panic and terror.
Maintenance: Cleaning is the worst part! I'm doing it, though, teeth gritted while in the process, but the first "thing" I get, when being rich and famous and on TV, is a maid - preferrably one that is willing to do the cleaning in the nude (that might give me some much needed inspiration).
The tub: I've tried soaking once, and guess what happened: My contour blended with the environment and I had to call 911 to get me out of the bath tub. They took me to a cold storage afterwards and left me there until I had shrunk back to my regular size (With a little luck, I might be able to retrieve that article that appeared in local press from my "prior to being famous"-period). While staying in that gigantic freezer at the hospital, I also felt some tension, trust me on that, and I would have given a lot for it to be released. Ever since, I'm told, I'm not to spend any more time in the tub or shower then 10 min. tops - that's a high price to pay for being self-indulged ONE time, don't you think?
Dressing: None, during warm summer periods and that's where all my fame comes from. In winter, I often find myself standing in front of the closet for periods of time and wondering, who took all my clothes...
Manicure: Don't need any. I bite my nails, which works just fine for manicure. Plus, you don't risk being bullied into staying away, like Carrie Heffernan of the TV-sitcom "King of Queens".
High maintenance ladies: Can I ask you to help me out here?
The slapping: Are you suggesting anything ...? (O:-P

hahaha...you're funny as hell, Werner. Just what I needed to read before I hit the sheets!
In replies of course:

Right you are in regards to the bald heads, it is very very common unfortunately. Don't you men love hair anymore. Now a male who is losing his hair or growing a bigger residing hairline that I can be sensitive to those regards. Men who have nice curly hair or just have a great look with hair-why why why, no hair?! And I may add, not every man have the right shape of head for bald style. Who am I to judge? What do you mean men your age? There are men with hair your age...I just hope you men are not tossing in towels for the razors.
Your Winter: Get out of here! haha. I would like to see this thing. Hot water bags are for ladies aren't they? I never heard of a man having one. Did you use it? haha. An affair, Werner! Do tell. It must be a true delight. Are you uhmm, pulling my legs? Dare you to place the photo here on Ipernity.
MAINTENANCE GRRR: haha. Great descriptive way of describing your way of doing things. I must say that I sigh and sweat tears of frustration. I've never seen myself sweat as much as doing simple vacuuming. What the hell? Shouldn't it be the other way around? You naughty boy! What would be easier for you to see-her in the nude bent over or you sitting there leaning your head and watching her scrub your toilet? She might not end up getting any cleaning done! ;-O
Your tub: What a bizarre story if I've never heard of one? Are you really that sensitive to water? Too bad, the waarm water is so soothing. ;) I feel like having a long soak myself. I have nothing better to do tomorrow-I'M OFF! So you have to hop in and hop out of the shower and tub?! What bout swimming in the lake???
What YOU DON'T WEAR: You go nude in the warm period? Is that what you're famous for? haha. Ccareful there Werner. haha. Long as you're indoors, right?! No shockers for us people. Say it is not so, you don't have tons of clothes. I thought men worship clothing as much as us women, and deny it. Do you own any suits? You're a simple guy I see.
PEDICURE: What about your toenails? Do you bite those too? I used to bite my nails when I was younger, but now I am too over conscious about the germs and crap hidden underneath them. Last thing I need is somebody's bacteria in my mouth than my own. Stop biting your nails, Werner, for I will come manicure them myself!
High Maintenance Ladies: Are you saying that you have not dated any? Or there is too many to count? Which do you prefer low or high maintenance? I don't take you to have patience with a high maintenance girl.
The slapping: ;)
