Brisbane based hair educator and former men’s hairdresser of the year, Jules Tognini, has predicted the top trends in grooming and shaving for 2022, along with tips for how guys can best achieve them at home.
TREND ONE:
The taming of the lockdown beard
A lot of guys let their facial hair go wild during lockdown. And while iso-scruff is likely to stick around into 2022, we’ll see the novelty of really long and unruly facial hair wear off. Guys will begin paying more attention to their beards, keeping them shorter, cleaner and more tidy.
Pro tip
Tough and dry beard hair can look unruly and even give your partner pash rash – ouch! Keep your beard smelling fresh and clean with Bulldog Skincare for Men’s nourishing Original Beard Shampoo & Conditioner. Use a beard oil, such as Bulldog’s Original Beard Oil, which contains aloe vera, camelina oil and green tea to keep your beard feeling soft and moisturised. Finally, style your beard with hydrating balm such as Bulldog’s Original Beard Balm to bring a healthy shine and keep the hairs in place.
TREND TWO:
The mo is having its mo-ment
2020 and 2021 were tough years– to lighten the mood, 2022 will be about fun and experimentation when it comes to grooming and shaving. We’re already seeing guys begin to embrace the moustache in all its glory, a trend which will continue into 2022.
Pro tip
Hipster mos are back, but if you want this look, it’s important to keep it in check. Keep the mo sharp and contained with the right razor, like Bulldog Skincare’s Original Bamboo Razor. With five steel blades and a pivoting head, it’s easy to achieve the perfect mo! And for the ultimate close shave, a shaving gel is the way to go. Try Bulldog’s Original Shave Gel to ensure the perfectly styled mo every day of the week.
TREND THREE
Putting your best face forward
As social distancing rules ease and the weather heats up, we’re all spending more time outside the house socialising. As we move into 2022, there will be a renewed focus on looking and feeling good. Moisturiser really is a man’s best friend – already loads of guys are using their partners’ products, but next year we’ll continue to see guys embrace their own face products.
Pro tip
Go all out with a three-step wash, scrub and moisturise routine to keep your skin feeling fresh. End the routine with Bulldog Skincare’s Original Moisturiser to hydrate the skin without leaving a sticky or greasy residue. Bulldog also has a Sensitive and Oil Control moisturiser if you want a more tailored product for your skin type.
