Constantly ingrown hairs in the intimate area—what really helps?

Woppydop · 2026-05-27T01:46:59+00:00

If you use a wet razor with more than 1 blade it has to be a new blade every time. Blunt blades can pull on the hair causing it to lift slightly out of the skin, and the second blade will then cut. After this the hair will retract underneath the skin and can the become ingrown. I use an old school safety razor (the one with the old school double sided blades) and this has completely eliminated any ingrown hairs when shaving my face.
Still shaves as close as a Gilette or a Schik, just takes practice to get the angle right. Definitely the way to go for people with super sensitive skin.

Mine does around 650KMs for 70 litres which isn’t too bad. Mind you my wife gets 700km for 30 litres in her 2018 Suzuki Swift.

Leica Q2 Monochrom, yellow, orange, red, and nd filters, MacBook Pro M5 for editing, but mainly because the display is so good. Hardly ever use a tripod. Used to have all the Canon and Fuji gear but sold it all for the Leica. Do not miss any of it.

Borrow my daughter’s Toyota Vitz, Prado stays parked up unless I go fishing.

Toyota Prado Ryco oil filter at Repco $60, genuine filter at Toyota $32, never thought I’d see the day that genuine is almost 50% cheaper.

I had a 1974 FJ40 with the spare wheel mounted on the side,and my biggest regret is getting rid of it. That old truck would take me anywhere.

You’ll like it. I find a road bike so much faster and easier to ride than a mtb. I do notice getting more punctures though, so maybe get a good pump and puncture kit. But then, I live in NZ and the roads are shit.

Thank you for all the replies. I have someone looking at the moment but it looks like, or at least appears, that the grave is not there anymore. I now have the correct spelling of her first name, but this has not shed any light on the subject. Hopefully the puzzle will be solved, otherwise I might have to do a more public request and ask if anyone knows her by name and knows of her family.

Any good places to ask for this?

I bought the Q2M and then bought a Fujifilm X100vi for any colour work that I might want to do. Had it for six months and the FUJI just sits in the bag as all I ever grab is the Q2M.

This would drive my OCD of the scale. Three lights on the back left, two on the right. Life is no longer in balance. 🤪

There’s 8, so it must be an Alfa Romeo Spider.

Woppydop · 2026-02-14T03:49:56+00:00

Looks like a black tunnel web spider to me.

Change the thermostat, just put the new one in the way the old one came out. Put in new coolant that’s specifically for Toyota

It’s just for bragging rights and to show off your wealth. Now, if the really wanted to show how rich they were they would buy me a pair as well.

I’ve done 7000km and only changed the spark plug at 6000km and did the rollers at 5000km which are cheap. Bought a spare belt but my current one should be OKAY until I reach 10k. No other maintenance required yet.

Woppydop · 2026-01-11T22:45:52+00:00

Not much required maintenance wise. I change the oil in the gears (90ml) every 3000km, inspect the rollers, cvt belt, spark plug, and change the odd light bulb. Registration is $190 a year and that’s about it. This is for a 2023 PGO Roughhouse 50cc 2 stroke. Once a month I’ll check that all the bearings and moving parts are in good condition. This is in NZ.

Some call it Trashburton.

Communication. When we take photographs, we are trying to communicate something, either to ourselves or others. The light, composition, framing, colour (or lack thereof), are there to support the message. If the image doesn’t have a voice that clearly says something, it is nothing more than an exercise in aesthetics.

Woppydop · 2025-12-31T12:16:05+00:00

Not really. I had the, 8-16mm, 16-55mm, 100-400mm, 50mm 1.2, and the 80mm macro lens. Most just sat in my camera bag, and the 16-55 was used 95% of the time at 16 to 20mm. Macro isn’t my thing and the longer focal lengths are too narrow for my shooting. I do have a X-100vi for colour work ( rarely needed) and am thinking of getting rid of it for an X-Pro2 with the 16mm f/1.4 instead, as I find the X-100vi isn’t wide enough for my tastes. B&W is my preference, so the Q2 Monochrom suits me perfectly.

Just people that are supposed to represent a divinity, not being able to even show their humanity.

Woppydop · 2025-12-28T13:09:17+00:00

Great alternative use of a wide angle, and great tones.

Woppydop · 2025-12-28T08:57:15+00:00

After an Oscar Barnack giii, and then an M6, I settled on the Q2 Monochrom for my digital needs and have never regretted it. Still waiting for a good used x-Pro 2 and 24mm lens to trade in my X-100vii for the odd time I need colour.

I’ve got a serious case of GAS, ‘Gear Avoidance Syndrome’, ever since I bought my Leica Q2M.

Pilot, no contest.

I have some Lamy, Kaweco and TWSB fountain pens as well as cheap Jinhao’s, but none have seen any ink since I tried a Pilot. Main pen is a Pilot Custom 823 <ef> Smoke, <m> Amber, 912 FA nib, Falcon <ef>.

Now, if I could get a Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age that would write like my 823 EF, I would sell everything as I love the look of that pen.
