According to stylists, facial hair in men will not go out of fashion in the coming years. The boom in mustache and beard combinations began a few years ago. The main commandment for those who decide to decorate the physiognomy with any style of hair is accuracy. It doesn’t matter whether you decide to let go of a large “shovel” or an extravagant goatee: the vegetation requires careful maintenance and trimming. Healthy Food Near Me asked Berbers and hairdressers how to care for mustaches at home. We publish expert advice.
How to take care of your mustache at home
A mustache requires much less maintenance than a full beard. But sometimes the procedure is more delicate. From the owner requires no less accuracy in care. We publish step by step instructions.
the washing up
The mustache can be washed with the same shampoo as the head. There will be no harm from this. If you want to make your hair softer and more well-groomed, then it is recommended to buy a special beard shampoo. True, the tool is not cheap. A bottle costs about 1000 rubles. Sold in barbershops or beauty salons.
Balm application
This is an item from the section with an asterisk. It is not mandatory for execution, but we set out to prepare the most detailed instructions on how to care for a mustache at home. The balm softens the hair. Some have a problem with the fact that the mustache naughty sticks out in different directions. The tool minimizes this outcome. The balm is cheap. Sold in cosmetic. After application, you need to withstand at least half a minute and then rinse.
Drying
You can walk with a hairdryer and begin to set the necessary outlines of the shape of the comb. Or just wait a couple of minutes after a shower until the mustache dries itself.
Shaving
If the mustache has lost its shape, climbs onto the lips, or you want to remove excess stubble around, you will have to use a razor. We offer a choice:
- an ordinary machine with a trimmer blade – sometimes it will be enough (200 – 400 rubles);
- a shaver is a mini-machine that shaves the stubble, leaving a length of less than 1 millimeter (1000 – 2000 rubles);
- a mechanical trimmer is a professional tool that allows you to draw clear shapes, and thanks to the attachments, also remove the length (1500 – 6000 rubles).
use oil
To care for your mustache at home, you will need oil. It nourishes and moisturizes the hair and skin underneath.
– Try to apply the oil carefully, as it can leave marks on clothes. I recommend Lock Stock & Barrel Argan blend shave oil, Bluebeards Classic Blend Beard Oil, Solomon’s Beard Vanilla and Wood, V76, Truefitt & Hill Beard Oil, says owner of the chain of barbershops “Gingerbread Man”Anastasia Shmakova.
Note that, like any other men’s cosmetics for a beard and mustache, oil is expensive. The price of a bubble in 30 ml is 1000-2000 rubles. Most brands are American or European. Although now more mass brands familiar to everyone have begun to appear on the shelves of large cosmetics. Their prices are below. They lose in terms of smell and raw materials are cheaper, but it’s better than nothing.
Give shape
To keep your mustache from frizz and sticking out just right (maybe you want to curl it!), use wax or modeling paste. Some use hair styling products. Others prefer to buy a specialized tool. Again, there is the question of price. When caring for your mustache at home, do not forget to carefully rub the product over your fingertips, otherwise greasy wax lumps will remain on the mustache.
