A comb is not normally thought of as a utility that can change someone’s life, but for many the Steeltooth comb has.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The stainless steel material offers a lifetime of durability while offering the benefit of being anti-static. Barbers and hair enthusiasts alike have gravitated to Steeltooth combs because of their superior quality and ability to manage thick hair, long hair, and hair that is both (thick and long). As we see a rise in men using higher quality hair products like small batch pomades which make the hair thicker while styling, the need for a comb with teeth that do not bend is required. The steel teeth which are anti-static provide a smooth passing through hair which does not leave any hair sticking up as static electricity is not generated. This also greatly reduces snagging of hair on the teeth. Plastic combs have properties that generate static electricity in the hair as it moves through, so the longer your hair the more difficult it becomes to style. The benefit of anti-static in the steel teeth also will eliminate split ends in hair that are cause d by combing, something many people don’t realize occurs with plastic combs. This is especially helpful to those who are rushed in the morning as it will save time during your routine while also leading to long term hair health. You would not subject yourself to using a plastic fork or spoon while in the comfort of your home while you eat meals, so why would you subject yourself to using a plastic comb while in your very own home with a tool that interacts with your body on a daily basis. https:\/\/steeltoothcomb.com<\/p>\n

\u00dcllo is a revolutionary wine purifier that filters sulfites with Selective Sulfite Capture technology to restore wine to its natural taste -as if you opened the bottle right at the vineyard.

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sulfites are artificial preservatives that are added to all wines to prevent oxidation and bacterial spoilage, but once the bottle is opened they are no longer needed. Some people even claim that removing sulfites helps to prevent a headache the next day.<\/p>\n

In addition to removing sulfites, \u00dcllo includes an adjustable wine aerator and comes with 4 replacement filters, a travel bag, and a display base to capture stray drips.

Desperate dads feel guilty taking \u2018me-time\u2019<\/h3>\n

Ahead of Father\u2019s Day, BIC SHAVE CLUB uncovers how dads feel their lives have changed since having children<\/p>\n

Key findings:<\/p>\n

\u00b7 67% of Dads say that they consider themselves as someone that takes pride in their appearance and more than (54.5%) value taking time for it<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Yet, a quarter of dads feel guilty for spending \u2018me time’<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Time is the biggest constraint to taking care of appearance by more than half (56%) of British fathers<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Almost a third (28%) have changed their facial hair style since having children, with 40% doing so because it\u2019s easier upkeep<\/p>\n

\u00b7 British fathers say their kids prefer them to look more presentable (34%) and clean-shaven (29%)<\/p>\n

LONDON \u2013 Thursday 7th June 2018 \u2013Today, BIC SHAVE CLUB, the subscription service delivering refillable razors directly to your door, reveals how men have changed how they look after themselves since becoming a father with a quarter feeling guilty for having \u2018me time\u2019.<\/p>\n

Despite the joys fatherhood brings, the reality is that it means less time to spend on oneself, and that includes less time to take care of one\u2019s personal appearance. In a bid to support men in giving them a little bit more time to their day, BIC SHAVE CLUB asked 2,000 British men with children how having kids has influenced how they look and feel now as a Dad.<\/p>\n

The arrival of a new baby turns life upside down for many parents, and the majority (89%) of British men agree saying their life has changed significantly since having children. Over two thirds (67%) of British fathers say they take pride in their appearance, with a quarter (25%) even saying they take more pride in their appearance now than they did before they had children. Yet, 25% feel guilty doing so and more than half (56%) reference time as the biggest constraint when trying to look after their appearance. Of the men that said they take less pride in their appearance since having children (19%), 33% said that they do not care as much as they used to. In addition, more than half (56%) said they don’t have as much time now they are a parent; 30% of British fathers don\u2019t believe they could find any more time in their day for \u2018me\u2019 time.<\/p>\n

When thinking about shaving, 72% of British Dads said they have not changed their facial-hair style once since having children. Those that have (28%) said they wanted to do so for easier upkeep (39%) and 41% just because they fancied a change. According to the dads surveyed most (68%) of their kids like it when they change their facial hair style. When asked what their children like about their new appearance, Dads said their children liked them to be more presentable (34%), to be more clean-shaven (29%) and for their face to be less prickly (28%).<\/p>\n

Maybe it is time for Dads to think about making a change and refreshing their look, after all this could contribute to their overall wellbeing.<\/p>\n

Laurent Laforest, General Manager, BIC SHAVE CLUB said: \u201cIt is clear that fatherhood is a life-changing experience for most British men, but one that shouldn\u2019t mean neglecting the time they get to themselves to take care of their personal appearance. Time is the biggest hindrance for fathers, and at BIC SHAVE CLUB we want to support them by making life easier with non-disposable, refillable razors and fresh blades delivered straight to their door. No more wasting precious \u2018me time\u2019 popping to the shop when you need a new blade. We know how valuable both alone and family time is, so dads should make the most of it, whilst keeping their face prickle-free to keep their kids happy. The children have spoken and they want less prickly dads, so keep up that clean shave!.\u201d<\/p>\n

A Return to Retro for Modern Dads this Fathers Day<\/h3>\n

\u00b7 Cash Converters Report a 800 % Sales Spike in Classic \u2018Boys Toys\u2019 as Father\u2019s Day Goes Vintage<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Sorry Dads\u2026 Thrifty Shoppers Spend Half as Much on Fathers Day than Mothers\u2019 Day<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Forget socks, aftershave or boring golf clubs, modern dads want a taste of nostalgia this Fathers Day according to Cash Converters.<\/p>\n

The leading second-hand retailer and online auction site has revealed a 800 per cent sales spike of classic \u2018boys toys\u2019 in the six week run-up to Fathers Day on 17 June.<\/p>\n

Among the most popular items searched and sold are classic \u2018boys toys\u2019 such as 1980s\u2019 Scalextric car racing sets; retro Atari computer game consoles; Subbuteos soccer game sets; 1970s\u2019 style jukeboxes; good old-fashioned classic train sets and classic turn-tables for vinyl record loving dads.<\/p>\n

The trend for retro shopping is one that\u2019s been seen across retail in general but particularly in the specialist online auction and second-hand retail market as shoppers get savvier with their spending, according to Cash Converters.<\/p>\n

Latest consumer habits from GlobalData show that thrifty shoppers spend half as much on Fathers Day than Mothers\u2019 Day. Spending for Fathers\u2019 Day in 2017 was \u00a3700m as compared to \u00a31.4 billion for Mother\u2019s Day, with shoppers looking for thriftier and more niche gifts as compared to full-priced gifts on the high street.<\/p>\n

The assumption could be that dads are getting a rough deal but that need not be the case with some clever shopping online or in store at Cash Converters.<\/p>\n

Retro bargains galore are available and come in the shape of second-hand goods or classic nearly new original \u2018boys toys\u2019 predominantly from the 1970s and 1980s. For example, in Cash Converters it\u2019s possible to buy a classic boxed Scalextric for only \u00a399.00.<\/p>\n

Online a range of original turntables are available from only \u00a329.00 – ideal for the dad who has embraced his vinyl record collection again.<\/p>\n

For the anorak dad, it\u2019s possible to buy a classic Hornby train set and track for only \u00a379.00. The bonus is that many retro items will increase in value say Cash Converters as demand for vintage items increases.<\/p>\n

UK Head of Marketing at Cash Converters added: \u201cThere is a very clear trend for these items and especially in the run up to Father\u2019s Day as our figures show. Not only are the retro gifts often cheaper than full-priced contemporary versions, the element of remembering the fun these retro classics brought to dads in their youth brings a sentimental value that no bottle of designer aftershave can bring.\u201d<\/p>\n

LOCAL RUM-MAKERS IN SEARCH OF SOUTH AFRICA\u2019S MOST LEGENDARY DAD<\/h3>\n

Makers of Whistler African Style Rum hope to phone as many dads as possible to wish them a happy Father\u2019s Day.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Instead of spending this Father\u2019s Day with their kids and dads, a group of local rum makers will spend the day on the phone with strangers.<\/p>\n

With a nationwide Father\u2019s Day campaign inspired by their own dads, the Founders of Whistler African Style rum hope to phone as many local dads as possible to wish them a happy Father\u2019s Day. A case of Whistler African Style rum is also up for grabs.<\/p>\n

With the \u201cDad You\u2019re a Legend\u201d campaign, Whistler African Style rum is looking for South Africa\u2019s most legendary dad – the one dad in South Africa that most personifies the saying \u201cWhistle your own tune.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whistler, a small-batch rum, is as original as its drinkers \u2013 the \u201cWhistlers,\u201d people who do things differently. Leading the resurrection of rum, Trevor and Leon Bruns and Stephan De Vos started planning the production of unique African Style rum in 2015.<\/p>\n

By the end of 2015, they had purchased a small 50l still with the objective of testing rum recipes. Early in 2016, Trevor and Leon quit their respective jobs to focus all their time on designing and building a rum distillery. As part of the planning process, they attended a rum course presented by Luis Ayala at the Moonshine University in Kentucky, USA.<\/p>\n

Back in South Africa, the distillery designs were finalised and construction started. By January 2017 the distillery was completed, and the first barrels were filled. By July 2017, de Vos permanently joined his brothers on their quest and three months later the first Whistler African style rum was bottled in one-of-a-kind, specially made bottles, inspired by the early 1900\u2019s, railway steam-train whistles.<\/p>\n

With Father’s day on the horizon you may be thinking that consumers are going for the bog standard gifts that we are bombarded with each year, from keychains, socks, the good old mugs and photo frames that always seem to be the go to for such occasions. However, you’d be wrong!<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This year the trend has very much swung towards men’s grooming. From the latest grooming kits, aftershaves and personalised wash-bags, we’re stepping up our game this year. The most in demand gift of this year though, as reported from clinics across the country, is that of the ‘dad facial’.<\/p>\n

Dr Nyla, one of the UK’s top cosmetic doctors and owner of Medispa Wilmslow, said “In the last two months or so we have seen a big influx in bookings, for women and their children treating the men in their lives ahead of father’s day. A favourite seems to be the LED face mask, a treatment that is very popular with the footballers.’
\nWith the World Cup around the corner, and all our teams in prime condition ready to go score some goals, it’s no wonder women are looking to see what the footballers are doing in terms of grooming, to help keep their men in shape and game ready this Father’s day.
\nOne such footballer who came for such a treatment and who has no doubt been a source of inspiration is, Manchester United’s, Pogba, who regularly has the Opera LED face mask. The treatment is non-invasive and painless and is designed for skin rejuvenation. It counteracts the effects of ageing and scarring as well, so dad’s can look younger and feel refreshed on their big day.
\nIf you would like to find out more about the procedure or what you can get your dad for father’s day in terms of the very best grooming treatments please visit Dr Nyla’s website for more info: http:\/\/doctornyla.com<\/p>\n

Choose between the two, or get the set, either way you can potentially add many more vibrant years to Dad’s life with these two cookbooks that revolve around organic, unprocessed foods.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In The Ketogenic Edge Cookbook you will find a combination of slow-cooked, one pan, freezer friendly and 30 minute prep meals sprinkled with a few fancier recipes here and there. Most of the recipes are the \u201cquick and easy\u201d type that maximize nutrient density and minimize time. We offer a number of variations to recipes, illustrating how to expand and modify recipes in ways that extend longevity from a singe idea.<\/p>\n

Dad will be completely trained in the art of wholesome, everyday nourishment. This book specializes in healthy protein based entrees, fatty sauces, vegetable rich sides and sugar-free desserts. All recipes are simply designed and 100% family friendly.<\/p>\n

The Ultimate Guide to Low-Carb Baking is ideal for healthy minded Dads who enjoy preparing and sharing delicious food with the whole family. Learn how to transform soft, pliable dough into amazing golden brown, oven-fresh goodness \u2013 without gluten, grains, or sugar!<\/p>\n

Almost traditional recipe can be adapted to a keto style of eating!<\/p>\n

PERSONALISING YOUR PHYSICAL CONDITIONING AND TRAINING FROM YOUR DNA UP!<\/h3>\n

Are you an athlete wanting to take your performance to the next level? In a revolutionary approach to well-being, JOINCIRCLES gives you direct access to advanced DNA and\/or biochemistry tests that you can order and conduct at home.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A recent explosion in sports genomics research has revealed multiple connections between genetic variants and performance success. If you want to fulfil your athletic potential, it’s important to make appropriate choices that best match your unique genetic makeup. JOINCIRCLES helps you to have a deep, personalised understanding of who you are, and what your real-time DNA biomarkers and history tells you. By performing a DNA Sport test, you will be able to optimise your performance by making smart and personalised choices based on your unique DNA.<\/p>\n

Since rugby became a professional sport, we\u2019ve seen massive advancements in \u2018how\u2019 teams are managed: with sports doctors, physiotherapists and biokinetics, sports phycologists and nutritionists joining the locker room team in order to maximize players on field performance.<\/p>\n

DNA testing has now become part of the \u2018off the field\u2019 preparation of sportspeople. It really is no longer what is good for \u2018us\u2019 but what is good for \u2018you\u2019. DNA testing empowers individuals and coaches to develop a personalised nutrition, environment and lifestyle protocol for each player. Coaches, players, professional and amateur sportspeople are sitting up and taking notice of this type of testing in order to ensure that they can perform optimally and stay uninjured. Recently, the Egyptian National Soccer team had their entire team tested for these \u2018sports genes\u2019 in order to personalise and enhance their individual performance. At JOINCIRCLES we call this going from B to A!<\/p>\n

So how does it work?
\nThe DNA SPORT tests for an individual\u2019s unique genetic variations for key genes involved in 9 key areas, namely:
\n\u2022 Structural integrity of soft tissues \u2013 tendon pathology and injury risk. Based on your gene results, you will be able to see your predisposition towards sustaining a soft tissue injury.
\n\u2022 Inflammation & oxidative stress \u2013 If you have a medium to high impact genetic variations in these genes, you\u2019ll be empowered to make anti-inflammatory food choices and supplement with antioxidants
\n\u2022 Blood flow and respiration
\n\u2022 Energy during exercise
\n\u2022 Fuel during exercise
\n\u2022 Caffeine metabolism
\n\u2022 Muscle & bone composition
\n\u2022 Aerobic capacity
\n\u2022 Power\/strength potential \u2013 physiological factors based on the genes analysed.
\n\u2022 Recovery \u2013 training patterns and nutrition. The genes tested will show at what rate you are likely to recover from strenuous exercise and whether you can train daily or whether interval breaks are better suited to YOU.
\n\u2022 Endurance – depending on your gene results, you will find out about your potential for endurance sports
\n\u2022 Peak Training Time \u2013 your result will indicate whether you are better suited to morning or evening training.
\nOnce you have this information, you can begin to personalise your training (and prevention) programme. This means that you can take the \u2018guesswork\u2019 out of your daily nutrition, supplement and training programme!
\nThe test can be order online from JOINCIRCLES, combined with either the DNA HEALTH, DIET, ESTROGEN, SKIN tests. It is an easy-to-do buccal\/cheek swab that you can do at home. Once the sample is ready, we\u2019ll collect. Your report will be ready in between 14 -21 days and then you can hit \u2018start\u2019!<\/p>\n

Sony today announced another exciting model for their popular Cyber-shot RX100 series of compact cameras, the RX100 VI (model DSC-RX100M6).<\/p>\n

The innovative new RX100 VI camera is the first of all the RX100 models to include a high magnification zoom lens, as it packs in an impressive ZEISS\u00ae Vario-Sonnar T* 24-200mmi F2.8 \u2013 F4.5 lens yet doesn\u2019t sacrifice the pocket-size portability, fast responsiveness and high image quality that has become the hallmark of Sony\u2019s RX100 line-up. It\u2019s extensive zoom, impressive image quality and versatility for both still images and video make it an ideal choice for capturing daily life, cityscapes, portraiture, sports, wildlife and everything in between.<\/p>\n

The new model is equipped with a 20.1 MP 1.0-type stacked Exmor RS™ CMOS image sensor with DRAM chip and an upgraded BIONZ X™ image processing system with a front-end LSI that maximises processing speed and optimises image quality in all shooting environments. Additionally, the RX100 VI features an incredibly efficient Fast Hybrid AF system with 315-point phase-detection AF points on the sensor that can acquire focus in as little as 0.03 secondsiii, the world\u2019s fastestii AF acquisition time for 1.0-type sensor cameras. It can also shoot at up to 24 fpsv at full resolution with continuous AF\/AE tracking and produces beautiful 4Kvii video with full pixel readout and no pixel binning.<\/p>\n

New High-Magnification 24-200mm Zoom Lens Plus Outstanding Image Quality<\/p>\n

A first for Sony\u2019s RX100 series of cameras, the new ZEISS\u00ae Vario-Sonnar T* 24-200mmi F2.8 \u2013 F4.5 lens packs the power of both 24-70mm and 70-200mmi focal lengths into a singular compact design. This is achieved thanks to its unique design featuring two ED (extra-low dispersion) aspherical glass elements and eight aspherical lens elements including four AA (advanced aspherical) lenses. All pieces work together seamlessly to deliver outstanding sharpness from corner-to-corner at all focal lengths, maintaining the acclaimed image quality of the RX100 series.<\/p>\n

The impressive new lens on the RX100 VI maintains a large aperture throughout the entire zoom range, ensuring portraits can be created with beautiful bokeh, fast moving subjects can be captured with crisp focus and no blurring, and much more. Additionally, the lens has built-in Optical SteadyShotTM image stabilisation that is equivalent to a 4.0-stopvi faster shutter speed, helping to prevent blur at slower shutter speed while shooting in low light conditions or at telephoto zoom range.<\/p>\n

Lightning-Fast AF Performance and Shooting Speeds<\/p>\n

The new RX100 VI model features a Fast Hybrid AF system that ultimately allows the camera to acquire focus in as little as 0.03 seconds.iii This innovative AF system combines the respective advantages of 315-pointfocal-plane phase-detection AF points that cover approximately 65% of the sensor and contrast-detection AF.

Additionally, a first for the RX100 series of cameras, the RX100 VI includes Sony\u2019s advanced High-density Tracking AF technology, which concentrates AF points around a subject to improve tracking and focus accuracy. The popular Eye AF technology is also available with approximately 2x the tracking performance of the current RX100 series model.[ix] Furthermore, the camera has LCD touch focusing and touchpad focus point control for users that would like to drag their fingers to ideal focus points of their choice.<\/p>\n

An ideal complement to the AF system, the RX100 VI offers continuous high-speed shooting at up to 24 fpsv with full AF\/AE tracking, with an impressive buffer limit of up to 233 images[x]. The display lag of the EVF has been substantially reduced compared to prior models, allowing shooters to capture the decisive moment with ultimate confidence. Also, continuously shot images can now be played back in group on display instead of individually making it more convenient to review.<\/p>\n

The RX100 VI also has a high speed Anti-Distortion Shutter (maximum shutter speed of up to 1\/32000 second) that reduces the \u201crolling shutter\u201d effect commonly experienced with fast moving subjects, and can shoot completely silently in all modes, including continuous high speed shooting, when electronic shutter is engaged. A mechanical shutter mode is also available as well if required by the user.<\/p>\n

Advanced Movie Capabilities Including 4K HDR<\/p>\n

The pocket-friendly RX100 VI is packed with a variety of video capabilities that will satisfy even the most demanding video enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

With Fast Hybrid AF, the focal-plane phase-detection AF points ensures accurate focusing and tracking performance, even for the severe focusing requirements of 4Kvii movie shooting.
