For me, manscaping goes beyond the southern regions or \u2018he-vage\u2019 and is I believe a general routine that all men should adhere to. Firstly, let\u2019s talk about facial hair. Nothing at all wrong with a moustache goatee or indeed a full beard, as long as it it\u2019s well maintained. \u00a0Keep it trimmed neat and keep your rice krispies out of it!<\/p>\n<p>Nasal hair is quite unacceptable, it moves in and out every time you breathe so there really is no polite way to keep it. Invest in a male trimmer which you can also use to do your ear hair should you have any.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Beware of the man whose eyebrows meet for in his heart there is deceit\u2019 is as popular a rhyme for the modern gal as Humpty Dumpty is for kids. Guys, lose the mono-brow, it just screams lazy! As well as that, it is a well-known fact that the brows shape the face and this is equally important for the male visage as the female one. However it is most important that you don\u2019t overdo it\u2026 No woman wants a man with a brow that is more perfect than hers, and let\u2019s face it perfect brows on a man can be a little creepy.<\/p>\n<p>Underarms; it is a good idea to keep these trimmed but to maintain it rather than remove it completely.<\/p>\n<p>Next up the \u2018he-vage\u2019 which is the area around the collar down to your pecs, are you Justin Bieber or the Hoff? The only method of hair removal that is acceptable here is trimming or waxing. Trimming is for keeping everything in the area tidy whilst maintaining your chest rug. Waxing is complete removal for a smooth peck area. This is a completely personal choice as to your preference. Shaving or using a hair removal cream on this area will lead to prickly stubble and no bride wants to marry a cactus\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, we address the areas south of the border: Legs are best kept with hair unless you are a keen cyclist. And it&#8217;s no harm to keep the area near the crown jewels trimmed too in case of the need for speedos on honeymoon.<\/p>\n<p>{Image from <a title=\"Etsy\" href=\"http:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/83685639\/i-mustache-you-a-question-ink-art?ref=sr_gallery_11&amp;ga_search_query=i+mustache+you+a+question&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_ship_to=IE&amp;ga_search_type=all&amp;ga_facet=i+mustache+you+a+question\">Etsy<\/a>}<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a title=\"Glamity Jane\" href=\"http:\/\/glamityjane.wordpress.com\/\">Glamity Jane<\/a>\u00a0is a product addict, real girl, glamour guru and is so focused on the inside as well as the outside!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Manscaping, according to the urban dictionary is the \u2018removal of superfluous fur\u2019.
