Men are funny about their facial hair. Some men like to have full beards and some like no facial hair at all. Some men like just having a moustache, and some a “goatee”. Facial hair comes in all shapes, sizes, and colors. How you wear, and care, for your facial hair will also tell a woman a lot about you.
Let’s focus on the care of your facial hair. Whether you decide to grow a beard, or go clean shaven, there are a few things to remember;
Cleaning Your Facial Hair:
Sure it’s economical, but storing pieces of dinner in your beard just doesn’t look right. To keep your facial hair clean, wash and condition it just like the hair on your head (Yeah, you heard right).
Keep your Facial Hair properly groomed:
Goatee: Face it; the ladies aren’t clamoring for guys with lopsided and unattractive goatees. To keep your goatee properly aligned, always use a shaving oil or clear gel. Unlike foam, these products will allow you to see exactly what you are, or are not shaving.
Beards: Unless you are planning to run off and join ZZ Top, keep the beard at a manageable length and well trimmed. To remove beard tangles, detangle using a wide-tooth comb.
Sideburns: OK, so you’re a renaissance man. If sideburns are your thing, keep them clean, trimmed, and neat.
Clean Shaven: If you like to go clean, make sure you follow our tips on proper shaving and skin care to ensure you get noticed.
Trimming Your Facial Hair:
When possible, have your beard, moustache or goatee trimmed professionally by a barber. Quality barbers are hard to find today, but most will do a great job.
If you need to trim it yourself, stay away from the scissors! Instead, get yourself a cordless beard trimmer, preferably one with a couple different length settings.
Conclusion: No matter how you wear your hair, take the time to properly care and groom yourself. This way, when you want to get noticed, you’ll get noticed for the right reasons!
