The month of December is one day away! That means, in a few weeks we will all bear witness to someone in a nervous race, searching for the perfect gift for family, friends, or both. So I made it easy! Click the highlighted titles below for details on the itemized list, or the BIG GREEN BOX, right up there in the corner! —> 12 Post’s [...]

I think that there is nothing more fitting at this point (being that we covered shaving, cleansing and hairstyling), then to finish off with an item that brings this all together…cologne! Since we all know how to apply it now, and make it last (See Post: How to Apply Cologne), I searched my bathroom counter for one that [...]

With hairstyling trends gravitating back to the 60’s & 70’s – think Mad Men and Neo-Soul, I thought it would be fitting to suggest a lightweight pomade for the Eleventh day post.  Besides, you can’t possibly pull off any of these styles without the right styling product…right? So this is what I like… John Allan’s – BLU Pomade [...]

Do you have oily hair?  Well, within the past few weeks, I have received emails asking me how to solve this very problem (See Men’s Health Magazine questions).  Unfortunately, there can be many reasons for this symptom. One of the main culprits is overly active sebum/oil glands due to too frequent shampooing or aggressively scrubbing hair and scalp instead of washing gently.  Hey, [...]

I’m going to get right to it on this post.  Schick Quattro Titanium Trimmer.  Have you seen them in the shaving aisle?  They’ve been on the market for sometime now; however, I have always written them off as something that couldn’t possibly work (I know, I know…).  So the other day while on a cruise, there just [...]

I don’t have to tell you that moisturizing your skin is important. You already know that…right? After all, with so many elements out there (sun rays, cold temps., winds…) ready to damage your skin, you practically have to carry a tube of moisturizer in your gym bag. So here is one that you can try.  Believe [...]

Remember my post (Exfoliate?…Should I?) where I discussed in great detail the importance of exfoliating?  Ok, maybe not great detail, but you got the point!  Well, on this 7th post ’til Christmas, I decided to blow you away with a brand new men’s grooming line by Molton Brown, more specifically their…. Skin Clear Jade Face Exfoliator I’m at a [...]

We all wash our faces right?  Some of us do it with soap and water…bad idea, and others use a face wash…good job! OK, enough with the compli-bashing (made up word!), let me get right to the point.  Since we ALL should be washing our faces with a face wash, and not a bar soap (why?…detergent dries [...]

I get emails from many of you stating that you love wet shaves.  Believe me, I love them too!  So here is a shaving cream that has only been on the block for a short time, but is getting a great deal of attention! The Almond Collection by eShave Lather -rich, thick AND very few bubbles (for you wet shaving aficionados)! [...]

By now, you’ve probably read my posts on products that help to eliminate irritating ingrown hairs and razor bumps (See Product of the Month link).  And, since one of my responsibilities as a barber is to make sure that you, my reader, not only gets a close and comfortable shave, but an irritation free one as well, I’ve found yet another new prescription! The [...]
