Gov. Paterson shaves beard then mustache

The New York Times has a nice 3 picture collage on their site that shows Gov. Paterson going from beard to mustache to completely clean shaven.

Unfortunately I would have rather preferred it going in reverse with the latest picture showing the Governor with a nice beard. Too bad -- we would have even happily offered some proper beard care products.

New Packaging for Beardsley

We've been retailing the Beardsley Shampoo and Conditioner ever since we started Beard Care Products. Its an excellent product - have used and can attest to that myself.

Recently they've changed the packaging a bit, so some of you who are regulars of the Beardsley Shampoo and Conditioner might get a bit different packaging. Don't worry -- its the same company.

Falltime = Beardtime

In the world of beard and facial hair growing - there's 2 types of folks. Those who keep their facial hair year-round (Tier 1) and those who grow their beards around fall or winter (Tier 2).

For the Tier 2 folks the beard growing season starts right about now, although some procrastinate to as late as "No-Shave November". Its great to have the Tier 2 folks join us for the fall and winter months. We wish you would stay and so here's an analogy I came up with to come to terms with this phenomenon:

Growing a beard is like having a vacation getaway, a retreat. "A beard is a man's castle" to twist the old adage. Some can getaway for only short periods of time (that is they grow their beard and shave it off), and that's our Tier 2 folks.

So to them I would like to present his example: Have a year round retreat and getaway by not shaving. You'll do a favor to your skin, save lots of time, save yourself from countless cuts and can get up for work 15 minutes later. See it really is a retreat -- not shaving.
