New York Times Article on Slowing Beard Growth
The New York Times ran this article recently entitled Pushing Five O’Clock Shadow Back a Few Hours about the various hair retardant products on the market. That's right. I said "hair retardant." Not PC enough for you? Would you prefer hair-growth-challenged?
So why the need for a product which slows the growth of your beard?
Steven Horn, a director of international merchandising for Converse, said Lab Series for Men Triple Benefit Post-Shave Remedy was a face-saver on long overseas flights. “When I land 20 hours later, I don’t look like I need a shave,” Mr. Horn, 36, said. “I used to have to shave again once I reached my hotel and that was irritating to my skin, but now I can just go.”
Actually, if this stuff really works I'd totally use it. Don't get me wrong - I've come to love my morning ritual. But if I only had to shave every other day, I'd pay for that luxury. That said, seems the jury is still out on their efficacy.
Some of the products mentioned in the piece include Lab Series for Men Triple Benefit Post-Shave Remedy ($25), Clarins Men Skin Difference ($41), and Clinique Skin Supplies for Men Post-Shave Soother Beard Control Formula ($35).
