Whisker Wars : American Mens Beards vs The World

beefpiebear.com — 2011-05-16T15:09:31-07:00

It was only a matter of time before them furry boys of Beard Team USA would get a wild hair up their ass and decide to take on the World. The latest reality TV series - Whisker Wars.

The 2011 World Beard and Mustache Championship happened this year in Norway. Beard Team USA produced a slick and intimidating video that captures both the sport of 'Bearding', the comraderie and downright (ahem) cut-throat competitiveness that must be going on behind the scenes. "You mess with my whiskers - You messin' with me!" kinda take no prisoners attitude is pervasive. Especially from them Texas Good Ol' Bear Boys who threaten to succeed from the union like they were still at the Alamo.

Primping and Pettiness. Bushy Beards and Brovado. It all cumulates as cheesy Reality TV slices and dices the reality of what a hairy man's alpha-male beard really means to him -- and what can be packaged and sold to Pop Culture viewers as a tune-in-and watch series. Frankly, I'd have preferred alot less backstabbing and whisker-dissing, and more whisker-rubs and kissing scenes between these men.

Bear Hairy Mens Grooming Needs

beefpiebear.com — 2011-01-17T05:47:18-08:00

An ever growing range of specialized men's body and beard grooming tools are on the market for precision facial hair and body fur management from head to toe. Long gone are the clean cut, clean shaven days of the post WW II war era. Men are free - both professionally and casually - to explore different facial hair styles.

In particular, long sideburns and full goatees are trending right now. Precision goatee, mustache and beard styles are now possible with complete cordless beard trimmer sets which include a wide variety of trimming attachments. Many of these include specialized attachment heads for nose and ear hair trimming as well.

Many men will find that a traditional hair clipper barber set may be all they need. They're especially useful with fuller and longer beards and precise, full goatee shapes. This just-the-basics approach should be done with a high-quality clipper set, and ideally, once that includes a FULL set of attachment combs ranging from a #1 to #8 that allows trimming from 1/8" to a full inch. Hair clippers with an adjustable side lever will give you even more precise hair length options in-between. A set which includes a fine-toothed T-Finisher will help with detailing.

Even the category of mens grooming accessories has expanded as Manscaping and Body Grooming tools are available to trim back and body hair below the neckline for a neat appearance of body hair anywhere. Often combining both a trimmer and a razor, the best body groomer accessories trim the hair down to a short stubble first, then allow the razor portion of the body grooming tool to shave down close. Men now have all the tools necessary for full body grooming, head, and facial hair management.

Our notion of 'hair clippers' has changed dramatically as manufacturers of mens grooming kits - and a guys grooming needs - evolve. The 'Miami-Vice' style of a short, stubbly three-day beard is popular again, so a whole new genre of stubble-trimmers are designed for just that. A stubble trimmer is also great as the first stage of full-body shaving. With 99% of the hair bulk removed by a stubble trimmer, wet body shaving of the rest with the best body groomer - razor combo is far easier.

Bald heads are just a genetic fact of life for many men. So for guys who have a predisposition for baldness, some very unique grooming accessories have appeared on the market. There are Balding Clippers with ultra-close clipper blade designs that you won't find in a traditional hair clipper. And balding razors specifically designed to avoid nicks and cuts to the scalp while providing an ultra-close, completely smooth noodle shave - safely.

Remington Precision Hair Clipper Set - At A Bargain Price

beefpiebear.com — 2009-09-29T10:50:37-07:00

Lucky day for me at the little old Lutheran church-ladies second-hand store. Cuz I found a great $2 deal on a used:
Remington HC-8017B Precision 22 Piece Corded Haircut Kit.

Ok, well considering it was second-hand, there was only about 10 pieces of the 22-piece clipper set. But it had a half-dozen clipper guides from #1(1/8") to #6 (3/4") which I needed for Manscaping, Scalp and Beard trimming, was in 'like new' shape with clean, sharp, only-used-a-coupla-times blades. And when I hopped on Amazon to find what the complete set cost - I was surprised to find the Remington set sells new for under $15!

A better surprise: This Remington clipper is GOOD. 1. The adjustment lever STAYS PUT - which unfortunately other hair clippers don't and change length at the worst moments. 2. The hair-cutting guides are VERY well designed, they slide onto the entire blade head and hold VERY securely. 3. The clipper operates at a deep, vibrating rumble, not the clacky whine of some clippers. What it lacks at this price range is an Adjustment Screw - which some clippers desperately need to run quitely and for the blades to be set to oscillate optimally. Still, the Remington purrs perfectly without one.

Overall, a well desgined Manscaper tool - that cuts beautifully - at HALF THE COST of most other comparable clipper sets. AND it comes with a nice storage box with latching lid. One of the best men's grooming deals ever - you read it here first at www.bear-hairy-men.com

P.S. Wanna go UPSCALE in your grooming and Manscaper toolkit? At the high-end there's the Remington HKVAC-2000 Precision Vacuum Haircut Kit with a built-in vacuum to, well, at least minimize some or most of the stray hair clippings while you're doing your dirty work.

Think beyond the hair, Bear. Completely grooming a man proves the devil is in the details - from head to toenails to finger-tips. Make an investment in yourself - or as a gift for an unkempt friend with a leather-bound top quality mens grooming kit.

You may want to add select tools to the set such as a very useful Tweezer-Man No-Slip Grip Skin Care Tool

Mens Stainless Steel Pore Cleaner

Treat your Manscaper gear like the tools in any other toolbox a guy would own. Keep the manicure, pedicure and other stainless steel tools clean and dry , oil them occassionally, and put them back in ther place when finished - and they'll serve you well for years to come.

Anti-Manscaping BACKLASH! Bear=Hot : Bare=Not

beefpiebear.com — 2009-08-28T07:37:17-07:00

Well the top newspapers and online editions are all over it this month: ANTI-MANSCAPING. Why? Because after several years of yapping about the hip, neo-trendy, metrosexual-esqe pubic, er.. PUBLIC outing of Manscapers hiding in their (trimmed) bushes in the bathroom.. In order to generate a Point/Counter-Point -- and have fresh articles for their Health and Style sections -- the pendulum simply HAD to swing the other way.

So now NON-SCAPING, DE-SCAPING, UN-SCAPING is hitting the news and blogs in Knee-Jerk fashion. The Fur Fashonistas have now declared (imagine that!) Men's Body Hair is hot, it's In-Style, it's Hip, It's the NEW NOW for Winter 2009/2010.

Jesus what's next? Is the Fall fashion lineup 'DARE TO BEAR!' the next thing? Open shirts, plunging necklines, Neo-minimalist Stringer Athletic Tee's the trend to watch for? Uncurling, unfurling waves of chest-hair swaying like fields of wheat in the breeze is on tap for 2010. In the meantime, set that clipper guide back a notch. More is the New Less... well, if you read the internet pablum spewed out daily for public consumption.

Quality Hair Trimmer and Clipper Replacement Blades

beefpiebear.com — 2009-06-12T13:46:53-07:00

So many things are made these days to be disposable: And that's fine for disposable plastic razors and cartridges, or some of the cheaper rechargable and battery powered mens hair trimmers. They have their place in a mans hair-grooming arsenal. For those of us who've learned the value of buying quality in the first place - and caring for our tools - know the value of buying Pro grade clippers that barbers and salons do. In particular Oster and Wahl trimmers can last a decade or more with proper care - and replacement blades are readily available to get them cutting 'like new' again for a fraction of the cost.

In general these companies have stayed true to their blade designs and manufacturing - without needlessly changing them every year. So it's easy to find replacement hair clipper blades or as important - replacement hair trimmer guides - today - for that trimmer you bought years ago.

FYI: If you own or buy one of Wahls clippers - you may find their Wahl METAL CLIP attachment comb sets to be vastily superior to the standard plastic guides. The spring metal side clips are far more snug to eliminate the guide popping off from excessive pressure or normal wear and tear that cheap plastic combs are prone to.

Manscape Down There : Shaved Pubic Areas

beefpiebear.com — 2009-06-04T11:34:05-07:00

Trimming the pubic hair properly begins with a good brushing or combing. Brush up first - then out towards your shaft to extend the hair fully. Using the edge of a top-quality Oster T-Finisher, or a Wahl T-Trimmercan help to set an edge and curve above the shaft. It's up to you if you feel the need to 'add an inch' and set the hair edge close to the root - or merely want to trim and shape the bush overall. Then, brush up and back towards your navel, exposing the shaft and root to move in for the few stragglers.

But some men, especially as we age - are prone to ridiculously long chest hairs. The kind of hair that gets snagged in shirt collars - on when buttoning buttons. Some men like to groom thier chest hairs - well just slightly shorter - to preserve one of their best assets.
