Men’s Styling, the Easy Breezy Cruzer Way
The prominent facial hair on performers like Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters might have that effortless look, but were betting a lot of work goes into keeping it well-groomed. Same goes for the guys in other bands like Bon Iver and Mumford & Sons, recently in the world spotlight for the Grammy Awards. Those who are intimately familiar with electric guitars may be less so with battery-operated shavers, but that could...
