Thank fuck these days it’s no longer cool or “manly” to stink like a dumpster, which was the vibe for way too long, at least around here. You still get hit with rank-ass pit and ball funk on the metro, bus, or from sweaty tourists in summer, but the trend’s finally shifting for the better.
That legit demand from women toward straight dudes—and in our case, from our bear buddies—that we actually give a shit about ourselves has spawned a whole arsenal of products to meet the brief. Creams, deodorants, fragrances keep our daily grind smelling fresh, and the bear scene’s riding that wave hard, pumping out more gear tailored for us fuzzier fucks.
Beards and stubble are back in a big way (here’s hoping they stay forever), so the razor-blade cartel’s desperate crusade to keep male faces baby-smooth is slowly getting drowned out by ads for beard trimmers—most of us already rock the 1.0 versions at home. The new kid on the block, the Goatee Saver, is trying to win hearts by letting you sculpt a geometrically perfect circle beard. And if you wanna get wild with facial-hair styles, the web’s packed with even more templates—though for now you’re stuck trusting your own shaky paws to pull them off.
