I definitely have a modern, holistic approach to grooming: Working out, hydrating, and eating healthy to support healthy skin and hair along with a daily skin and hair care regimen. Embracing a lot of men’s beauty as well. I’m not afraid of foundation and concealer to even my complexion, experimenting with hair color and style, and having fun with manicures and nail polish. I try to be as conscious as possible of using products that are good for the environment and my body as well as only stocking brands with a good mission statement behind them.
