A natural habit
On the international scene, 10-day beards are commonplace: actors such as Christoph Waltz, George Clooney, and Brad Pitt can be seen sporting them, and clean-shaven men seem to be in the minority on the football field and in the creative departments of magazines or advertising agencies. Following the metrosexual trend (David Beckham was the first), the desire for roots and authenticity is on the rise. The new generation of bearded men cultivates a stylish, well-groomed look. This is where the new beard culture meets the new bathroom culture; innumerable creams, lotions, and oils developed exclusively for masculine tastes come to match increasingly diverse bathroom design. The blogs in which men discuss shaving rituals and facial-care must-haves are proof that these products do have takers.

Not something for men who aren't prepared to invest time
The look requires more care than wet shaving because the contours and length of the beard have to be trimmed regularly. The right finish is needed so that it doesn’t just look groomed but also feels soft and smooth. So one word of advice: beards are not recommended for men who prefer a minimalist’s morning ritual!
