Guys: Take a shower, shave and put on clean clothes before you meet with someone.
Hygiene is very sexy.
No shave, have beard, will not capitulate to demands. If you can't accept my face at it's harriest you don't deserve the parts I do trim!
I have sensitive skin lol and razor bumps are laaaaaaame.
You're definitely missing the point. I also have a beard and refuse to shave but I tidy my beard up periodically. The point is to groom yourself.
I'm going for length, I clean it though. Currently however I must've got some aeroshell 64 in it though because the smell won't leave and I won't be able to shower for like another 8h, so I smell industrial.
I got a puppy when I was first starting an Airman Program (prior to becoming an aviator in my branch of the military), and one of my daily responsibilities was getting fuel samples and fueling aircraft, so every day when I came home I smelled like jet fuel (which smells like it's generating constant low level damage as long as you're smelling it... because it is...). Now my dog loves the smell of jet fuel and loves it when I smell like jet fuel.
So I guess what I'm trying to say is, if Stockholm Syndrome is an option, that aeroshell 64 smell could work for you.
(This is entirely a joke, I'm not advocating any situation outside of pets that would result in Stockholm Syndrome)
Lol not gonna lie, I kinda like the smell of this grease myself! Now I just need to find a woman who uses a lot of anti seize grease at work!
(Tbh, I fully welcome it, my last ex couldn't hold down a job and it really fucked with our budget, I'm looking for someone who can this time! Stockholm syndrome jokes aside lol.)
If you're cleaning it then you're good. Tbh I don't really know what long beard hair care entails. I think the advice is moreso targeted at folks that don't care for the scraggly bits.
Well "shave" and "wash" are two very different things, and you can also "brush!"
Lol I know it was for folks that don't like the scraggly bits, but there's people out there that do too, that one person's preferences are far from universal. Like, I'm not a fan of those straight bangs that were popular a while back but some people are, and that's ok too! That said I'd never tell a woman to trim her bangs though, if I like her it's for more than her hairstyle so I can put up with one I don't like.
