Is it time for a new look? Consider the goatee, but don't just stick to the basics:
"The Goatee can create a look of mystery or distinction. It can also do a great job of hiding the double chin (well, maybe just from the front)! Regardless, it's a beard style that carries a commanding tone because it brings attention to the mouth, especially when speaking. And for men that like to be heard and noticed, this is a great beard style choice."
The folks over at Beardly have a great selection of beard shirts for holiday giving (or to add to your own beard shirt collection). And while they have a big variety to choose from, here's our pick for a gift for that bearded guy in your life: The Beard Measuring Shirt.
What do you get for that moustachioed man who has everything? How about a limited edition wooden moustache comb?

For the safety razor crew, Feather brand double edge razor blades are nothing short of amazing. They are exceptionally sharp, hold their edge for plenty of shaves (a week of shaves), and are well worth the money. They make your daily shave a breeze, and they can also cut through a week's worth of stubble like a hot knife through butter.
So consider stuffing some shaver's stockings with Feather DE razor blades, or stock up for your self!
