Personal Care Tips For Male Models

tips for male models
For any model, your personal care routine is the most important part of the day. In male modelling, a clean shave is often required, depending on the modeling job. Always shave in the direction that the hair grows on your face (which is known as shaving with the grain). Shaving against the grain can cause reddish skin irritation known as razor burn. Following your shave, apply a moisturizing aftershave balm that doesn’t contain oil or alcohol. Oil will clog the pores of the skin, and alcohol will dry the skin. You will be able to see when the skin is tight and elastic by inspecting your look in a mirror under bright–but not harsh–lighting. Always cleanse your skin with an exfoliating product to remove any dead cells. To prepare your face for shaving, rinse thoroughly with warm water, then use a shaving cream or gel containing vitamin A or Aloe Vera. Vitamin A and Aloe Vera will keep your skin moist and soft. Always use a new blade for shaving, as used blades can pull at the hair and cause cuts as the uneven surface drags over the skin.

Body Hair

Remove chest and back hair so that your muscle tone and tanned skin are displayed to their best advantage. Waxing is a good solution for removing chest and back hair because it leaves your skin smooth and only has to be repeated every two or three weeks, depending on the rate of hair regrowth. If you shave your body hair, do not shave right down to the skin, as this could leave an unsightly razor burn.

Fingernails

Neat, clean fingernails are essential. Never use nail clippers because they can split the nail beyond the point where the clippers bite, which will cause your nails to look ragged. Nails should always be kept trimmed and shaped with regular filing. Some models say that they prefer to use a metal nail file rather than an emery board, because filing is done closer to the skin. Metal files will not chafe the skin of the fingertips in the way that an emery board will.
