The Styles

Wavy and short textured crop for men-This cut is ideal for men who aren’t afraid to rock a bold look. The look is easily maintained by using just a few products, and doing an occasional blow dry.

Fellas! Does Having A Beard Make You Feel Attractive?

Rick Ross, David Bishop, Omarion, Boris Kodjoe, Idris Elba – Yep, they’ve got something in common. All of them have rocked (or still rocking) a beard.

Well, according to a new study done by Braun, turns out a group of men in New York felt more facially attractive with a beard to the opposite sex as opposed to those who care to keep things bare and baby-faced styled.

According to COMPLEX, a total of 1,000 men residing in New York took the survey. 53 percent of men thought that keeping a beard brought out a more positive outlook on their looks while 41 percent felt more confident with facial hair.

Other study numbers included 67 percent admitting that they are able to grow some facial hair while 76.7 responded that hitting puberty resulted in patches instead of a full grown beard. Hey, if your mustache is partial – don’t feel too bad.
