I normally don't bother dressing up much. Home at 6pm and I normally stay in work clothes till bedtime. Shave once a week--Or rather trim the beard once a week- hair is done with the Shaver on a no4 cut. I am nothing special to look at.
Except a few weeks ago I had to socialise with my relations. When effort goes in-I scrub up well and a change to some designer clothes does disguise some of the body features that need disguising.
So the cure is to trim your beard regularly- Keep the hair groomed and fork out for some of those designer clothes that the kids keep trying to get you to buy.
And stay away from mirrors.
