Getting a facial isn’t any more emasculating than getting your beard trimmed. You don’t have to be named Blaine. Jeffs can get facials, too. Every man should know why men should get facials.
Across the U.S., we’re in a golden age of men’s grooming. The jury returned a while ago and found that mocking those who take particular care with their grooming is ignorant. Taking care of yourself is very much why men should get facials. It’s sensible and backed by grooming and healthcare professionals. Here are seven great reasons you should get a facial:
1. Chillaxin’.
Guys need “me time”, too. Truly they do. Stresses of work, kids, rush hour traffic, dating, money, and just the rushing around we all do daily not only affects our health and outlook, but it also shows up on our face. Yep – stress makes us look older. And can give us some pretty killer headaches. Most people do not realize how much tension they hold in their facial muscles. How can we combat that? Relax. Having your face heated, massaged and coated with serums is a perfect vehicle for that relaxation.
2. You’ll Get A Closer Shave.
Every day or every two weeks, the continuous dragging of a razor across sensitive facial skin can irritate. And that irritation leads to all kinds of problems: Razor burn, inflammation, pimples and ingrown hairs. Shaving irritates, and irritation causes a lousy shave. How do you break this cycle? Take care of your skin. Get a facial. Seriously. A facial will deep clean bumps and soothe irritated skin. The combination of exfoliation, essential oils, mask, and moisturizers that an esthetician typically applies will address shaving’s side effects and make your skin smoother than ever. The smoother your skin, the better and less painful your shave. Even if you aren’t worried about wrinkles, this is one of the best reasons to slap on some moisturizer once or twice a day.
3. Clean, Clear Skin.
Men’s skin produces more oil because, in general, men have higher testosterone levels than women. When not cleaned properly, the oil will clog your pores and lead to blackheads, leading to pimples. Most Estheticians will perform extractions during a facial, which is the exact removal of oil and dirt clogging pores. Do this yourself at home and risk severe damage, but the result is clean, clear skin in the right hands.
Just because men produce more oil doesn’t mean all men have oily skin. Part of the reason facials is so effective is that estheticians understand your skin type and its needs for dry skin types. You’ll need a facial that leaves your skin hydrated and moisturized.
4. Look Younger With Fewer Wrinkles.
Men are more likely to work/play/exercise outside and less likely to wear sunscreen. Facials offer a way to undo the damage. A facial will remove the outer, damaged skin cells through exfoliation. The fresh skin beneath moisturized deeply, refreshing all skin layers. A Facial also removes impurities, unclogs pores, and stimulates new skin, making everything seem brighter, smoother and less wrinkly. It also has the optical effect of hiding minimal irregularities in colour from sun damage and age. What does this all mean? Your skin looks healthier, younger, and is better prepared for whatever you do.
5. Learn From The Best.
The real motivation to get your skin handled by a professional is the same reason you have a mechanic work on your car: They can do it better than you can. Estheticians use better, more effective products that didn’t make a sale over the counter. They can show you new techniques on applying effects, the order in which to use them and explain why. At Fresh Beauty, we don’t mind if you ask us hundreds of questions. We are delighted to share our knowledge with you. We will tell you everything we are doing and why and what you can do to maintain the results at home. Of course, if it is not your first facial or not in the mood to talk, you are welcome to lay back, check out, and relax.
6. You Won’t Smell Like A Bouquet.
It is not your wife’s facial. Facials for men are precisely that: for men. All of the products we use are fragrance-neutral and specifically targeted at a man’s skin’s unique challenges and demands.
7. Service.
At Fresh beauty, we respect our clients’ time and needs. We never ask you to sit, biding your time with other clients, until called your name. Send us a quick text when you arrive in the parking lot, and by the time you get to the lobby, we will be there, too. We’ll take you straight into the treatment room. How is that easy and stress-free?
