Update: We have a judge for the #WillYouShave activity! Read on for more details!
On any important day in a man’s life, be it a big interview, a first date, or a family function, he has a check list to be ready & prepared.
– Well dressed? Check.
– All documents in place? Check.
– Cash and cards in wallet? Check.
– Clean shaven and well groomed? Check.
These are the big days that we know in advance. But do you know for sure, which day of your life might turn out to be the most important day of your life? On turning which corner, you’ll meet the love of your life? Where your future employer might spot you.
And on such a day, what would you like to look like? Sporting a lazy stubble, or looking sharp with a clean shaven well groomed face? You decide.
When opportunity knocks on your door, be well prepared and clean shaven to grab the opportunity with confidence.
Presenting #WillYouShave activity, where you have to open your hearts and write about the impact that a stubble or lack of it, has had on the life.
Here are the themes for your blog post-
- Opportunities – Stories or instances where you missed out on an opportunity because of a ungroomed look.
- Luck or Confidence? Will you leave your fate in the hands of destiny or will you step up and say yes to a well- groomed face to be at your best everyday? #WillYouShave?
Ladies, you have a say in this too! Write a blog post about the men in your life on the following themes.
- An instance when a stubble came in the way of a man’s chance to make a good impression.

I feel the value of the vouchers should be increased…rather than telling bloggers to convince other bloggers to write and giving them voucher for that…it will be better if the voucher values are increased. This will generate automatic interest and people will participate themselves only. 🙂
I wanted to give this constructive suggestion as I like this community. 🙂
My posts on why i dont like beard at all and how sometimes just to look manly guys grow beard..dont know if that defines manhood but it sure sometimes is messy and unclean if not taken care of..

http://deepikamuthusamy.blogspot.in/2014/12/clean-shave_18.html
No matter Darwin’s theory is right or wrong, our human thoughts and actions are more or less similar to monkeys. To be a proof for the civilization, men started to shave the unwanted hair that grows in his face just to make sure that he looks clean. Then after sometimes this changed into clean shave which makes a man look majestic. Among all other living beings, Men look good when he shaves unlike lion or peacock. The majestic look of a shaved man can me compared to that of the lion.
I have written post and tagged fellow bloggers too. But i forgot to post the acknowledgement link ! What do i do?
