Male grooming has evolved so much over the years, with a huge range of men’s styles and products now available. It’s easy to get lost in the world of male grooming advice.
I believe that being happy and comfortable in your own skin is the ultimate goal for any male. Every gentleman wants to be able to feel confident in how he looks, and we aim for every man to leave Eagle & Bear feeling better about themselves.
Here are some of my top gents grooming tips:
- Eyebrow maintenance Well-kept eyebrows can really make a difference to looking sharp. Though some of you may not want to have your eyebrows professionally waxed, its surprising the subtle difference just removing some of the unruly hairs between your eyebrows makes. You can do this simply at home using a set of tweezers and a mirror and taking your time. Complimentary eyebrow waxing is also offered as part of all haircut services at Eagle & Bear. We can give you advice and help with your eyebrow maintenance by showing you how we take the unwanted hair from in-between the eyebrows and trimming the longer hairs away to gain shape without looking too defined.
- Shaving at home At Eagle & Bear we offer hot towel face shaves and beard shaping, but if you wanted to tidy up any unwanted hair in-between visits, then follow these simple shaving tips. Always wrap your face in a hot towel before shaving or shave after a hot shower. This is to soften the hair and help with a smoother shave. Use a pre shave oil, shaving cream and an after balm to protect the skin and keep well moisturised.
- Use a good quality shampoo and conditioner 2 in 1 shampoo’s and conditioners don’t usually give the hair enough condition so we would always recommend to use a separate shampoo to conditioner to look after your hair and scalp. We can advise you on your scalp condition and which products you should be using when you are in our chair.
- Use the correct amount of product Its the way we use the product that matters, not the amount. Use a pea size of styling clay and rub into your hands first to evenly distribute the product, then pull it through the hair to style. One – two drops of beard oil will be enough, massage the oil in and then comb through. This way you will get an even moisturised beard.
Every appointment includes a thorough consultation and we always offer grooming tips and product advice for you to maintain the style at home. To book an appointment click here.
