The truth is, some do!

Shobha, NYC’s hair removal expert, reveals the top three
reasons men go bare down there:

1. To forgo the extra ‘five o’clock shadow’ and opt for a
longer-lasting, smoother solution.
2. To minimize hair and maximize the appearance of other ‘parts.’
3. To enjoy hairless happiness – men can hate body hair as much as
women.

So, I must ask: Do any of you ladies have a man in your life who “manscapes”? How do you feel about that???

]]> manbrow.jpgSo, if you live in a major metropolitan city – or not – you may or may not be dating a metrosexual.

My best friend’s guy has been known to get his brows threaded before every special occasion so that they are perfectly shaped, and my baby-faced little brother will never go to bed before well-moisturizing from his toes to the tips of his fingers.

When is it too much? And when is it just…good manners?

The truth is, male grooming is sometimes just good manners: Neanderthal man is long gone, the time when male body odor was the only fragrance required is only valid in the wild (and among my puppies).

Men have evolved, and as brows are known to frame the face, keeping them in order is more important than just about anything they may wear on their body.

The interesting thing is that brows are ONLY noticeable when they are a mess, and if your guy has a monobrow or just a few stray hairs, it may be a good time to summon his inner metro.

Check out the above video, where Aisha Alves of with Picture Perfect Makeup gives a step-by-step how-to on how to groom your man’s brows. Keep it in mind for your holiday parties!
