Saunas are becoming increasingly popular —replacing the pub as the hottest post-work and weekend hang. David Beckham even has one in his garden.
This new trend provides a complete detox from the everyday, forcing you to be away from screens and giving you time to recalibrate in peace, or catch up with mates without modern distractions. Plus, not only does dry heat increase blood flow to your organs and relax your mind and body, but a proper sauna routine can also clear up your complexion when used regularly.
But if you want to get the most out of your sauna sessions, having the right grooming routine is key. Here’s how to do it right:
Harry’s Ultimate Sauna Grooming Routine for Men
-
Cleanse Before You Sweat
Wash your face thoroughly to remove dirt and excess oil. -
Shave Post Sauna
Heat opens pores and softens facial hair, making post-sauna shaving smoother and easier. -
Moisturise, Always
After sweating it out, rehydrate your skin with a good moisturiser to replenish lost moisture.
Why It Matters:
Sweating releases a lot of salt, which—if left on your skin—can mix with oil and bacteria, leading to breakouts. That’s why it’s crucial to cleanse properly before and after your sauna session.
Luckily, Harry’s has you covered with sauna-friendly grooming essentials that keep your skin looking fresh.
