A Close Shave (Male Beauty Ideals)
Description
The idea that all a man has to do is throw on shirt and he's ready to head out the door is long gone. Nowadays, men primp and groom. But they have their own set of problems: trimming that goatee, buffing up the biceps, hiding that bald spot… In this episode, we take a look back on a century in which men became customers of the beauty industry.
