I have hair that is hard to style.
After an hour of styling it, it will become dry and unruly.
Not to mention unbrushable.
Anyone ideas on what to do about that?

I enjoy reading your preferrences for scents, I'm impressed.
No one could mistake you to be anything but Gentlemen.
I especially admire uppercase's organization in selection.
Right now, I'm trying out Ralph Lauren's Black to see how I like it.
Has anyone else tried it?

Too bad he made that comment, that was in poor taste. Personally I prefer Saville row over what Mr. Armani is introducing. He promised expensive materials but I don't remember the promise of a sartorial masterpiece. (I don't mean to aim a rebuff at him but, his statements do not strike me as one who...

charvet

I believe that charvet purchases cloth, although I've yet to hear an admission
about where it's purchased.
I'll see if I can find out more.

I like using a double brush also and I recommend it's use.
It may have some connection with a full head of hair,
being brushing your hair stimulates your scalp.
I like to double brush hair serum into my hair to keep it healthy and strong.

I myself have a similiar problem with shaving. My skin is very soft and knicks easily while shaving. I found that shaving oils and creams containing similiar oils make more problems. If it sounds like we have something in common try using gels that have no oil. Something lighter on your skin may pre...

The best way to keep your nails clean is to buy a manicure/pedicure brush. When you wash your hands employ the manicure brush. There are some very nice Gentleman's grooming essentials kits that have nail and hand care items. Here's what I do: I keep my nails trimmed and I employ the manicure brush. ...

Suit Balance/ Golden Ratio

Personally I like to look at the rules of balancing as an outline (rather than a rule)
I find that the perfect balance is what is becoming on the Gentleman in question.
I'm of the opinion that it takes skill to take the rules of elegance and use them but
adjusting them to fit the Gentleman.
