Dandruff it one of those unsightly problems thats can effect anyone at any age, in fact, according to research over 50% of the population experiences dandruff at some point in their life.

So what is it & what causes it ? Well according to the NHS,

“The body continually sheds dead skin cells as new cells are formed. In most cases, this is a gradual process that goes unnoticed. However, this process can speed up, producing excessive amounts of dead skin cells, which causes dandruff. It’s not always clear why this happens, but possible causes include seborrhoeic dermatitis, a common skin condition that causes oily skin.

– overuse of hair products
– emotional stress
– washing your hair too much or too little.”

It’s Movember we’re over a week in and your stubble, hopefully, has started to take shape, but before you think about committing to a horseshoe, handlebar or even the chevron you need to take a moment to care for your whiskers. Courtesy of Stelios Nicoloau, Aveda Master Barber, Aveda brings you top tips for taming your tash, helping you to boast a top lip to be proud of this Movember !

Aveda’s Stelios Nicolaou’s Top Tips for Taming Your Tash this Movember

1. If you shave around your tash, soothe skin and hair post-shaving with a product like Aveda Men Pure-Formance Composition Oil that not only penetrates deep into the skin but also softens harsh stubble. Massaging into the skin in the direction of growth will maximise the moisture your pores take in.
2. Hydrate and moisturise your moustache with Aveda Dry Remedy Daily Moisturizing Oil – a lightweight, daily leave-in treatment formulated with hero ingredient Buriti Oil to instantly moisturise dry, course facial hair.
3.  High-texture, definition and a matte finish are yours. Manipulate this paste into your fingers before moulding into the tash. Wash facial hair no more than twice a week. Washing daily will strip out all the natural oils facial hair needs and will leave hair feeling dry and could lead to irritation For added moisture apply Aveda Dry Remedy Daily Moisturizing Oil to a damp tash to soften stubble and course hair.
4. Control your style and maintain a sharp silhouette with Aveda Control Paste – rub between fingers before twisting into the ends to help create a perfect handlebar.
5. Create effortless definition and texture by emulsifying a clay paste and stroking through the moustache from root to tips – this will also help to give the illusion of a thicker tash.
6. Always prep skin before shaving facial hair around the moustache to avoid irritation, you can do this by gently pressing and holding a hot flannel against the skin and allowing the follicle to rise so you can get a closer shave.

2016 is a big year in the Fish Soho calendar as it marks their 20th anniversary, Fish opened its doors in Soho, in what was formerly a 1940s fishmongers with original deco tiles and slate floor. In the early days of the salon the brand worked with, at the time a little known model, Ms Kate Moss on one of her very first photoshoots. It’s come on a long way since it created the first water-soluble hair wax with its unique coconut fragrance. The brand’s larger than life founder, Paul Burfoot, pictured above outside the Soho barber shop has many a great story or we caught up with himself and Fish Creative Director Jacqui Weaver to chew the fat on some of  2016 mens hair trends;

Unkempt quiff–
The quiff is a classic haircut that is here to stay , but with a more modern textured look to it , it’s all about hair that moves instead of the super tidy and firm hold look , also moving away from the disconnected versions we have been seeing to a more blended classic cut. This can be super tight at the sides or left with a little more length for a more natural look.
Apply some Aquafish Fishpaste to damp hair and dry hair pushing it backward with the fingers, lifting the root area to create some volume. Once dry use some Fish Stonefish Clay to give hold and texture to the hair with a matte finish.

Forward fringe –
It’s all about the fringe ,the hair is cut short around the back and sides and is blended into the top but is left with a heavy weight line , the top is textured and worn forward onto the face. This is a great versatile haircut as because plenty of length is left at the front it can be styled in many ways.
Dry hair forward into the face then use a little Fish Fishfingers wax to shape and define the hair.

Long texture–

Long hair is always effortlessly cool, Make sure the layers are kept long and textured to keep the shape looking masculine. Hair can be worn in a simple middle parting or worn on the side. Apply a small amount of Fish Fishpaste to damp hair before you dry to minimise frizz and finish with spray wax to add texture and define ends.

Molton Brown are a quintessential British company, the finest of ingredients are expertly blended in London, their collection of signature fragrances for her and him, bath and shower gels and home and hand care luxuries have claimed iconic status with their vibrant colours and bold scents.With ingredients carefully sourced from around the world, each creation is intricately composed by some of the world’s best perfumers for a truly indulgent and memorable experience.

Of course, their latest concoction reflects this this trait with the launch of their new men’s Tobacco Absolute Collection, is an exploration of masculinity. Borne from the cultivated world of botany through the tobacco plant, it includes an eau de toilette, bath and shower gel and deodorant.

The inspiration behind this blend is the distinguished, eighteenth century British botanist Dr.William Houstoun and his discovery of a tobacco plant specimen in South America. Houston, originally born in Renfrewshire, Scotland and who’s writings and plant specimens, now preserved in the botanical department of the British Museum was a leading botanist. Following in Houstoun’s footsteps Molton Brown when also sourced their hero ingredient for the same area. Redolent of Molton Brown’s own nature of uncovering the world’s rarest ingredients, Houstoun’s pioneering spirit is contemporised in this nuanced, earthy scent.The intriguing fragrance further enriches this season’s leading men’s collection by bringing to life the story of a modern botanist.

Creator of the scent, Elsa Chabert of Fragrances Essentielles, comments,“Tobacco Absolute is a complex, warm combination of woods, Paraguayan tobacco, balsam and musks lifted by a hint of citrus.The mature authenticity of tobacco absolute balances the sensual depth of Peru balsam as it intermingles with Argentinian grapefruit and bergamot for a subtle though decisive freshness.”
