Men’s Corner
E
ver wondered how Drake’s beard is
well shaped-up and neat along the
sides or how men these days come
out from a barber with a well-shav-
en, good-looking beard? Beard fades go well
with a faded haircut and they especially look
neat and well shaven with a shape up. Shape
ups are ideal for men who want to enhance
their face shape, or sort of contour and give
their face shape a sharper look. For exam-
ple, men with a round face shape can go for a
straight or angled style. If you can’t picture out
the concept of shape ups, think Seneca Crane
of Hunger Games–his beard may be a bit more
exaggerated then what we mean, but you get
the point. It’s a clean-edge shave that adds a
little oomph to your man’s bearded look. Goa-
tees and moustaches can have fun in this trend
as well, Seneca Crane again is a good example.
So how does one simply achieve such an
attractive look? Shavers, of course. Ideally the
electric and single line ones–trimmers to be
exact. Let’s take a look at some electric trim-
mers available in the market. Buying online
is okay, but we recommend locating a nearby
store to test the product first before making a
purchase.
