A Guy Thing (and Holiday Shopping)

Does the guy on your gift list love to be pampered? Before you schedule an appointment for him at Elizabeth Arden, or book your local masseuse, consider an Art of Shaving gift set. For $100, it may be too pricey for the budget conscious person, but does come with some wonderful products: a natural badger hair shave brush, pre-shave oil, shaving cream, after shave balm, and a delightful book Bringing Art and Passion to a Daily Routine. He’ll definitely feel spoiled by you.
If $100 is too steep, you can still get him an Ingrown Hair Kit (seriously!) with a CD that will teach him how to get rid of unsightly ingrown hair on the face. Some men because they use poor quality shaving accessories and products containing alcohol, have a problem with ingrown hair on the face, but don’t know how to get rid of it. Definitely a guy thing. For $50, you can help him out and feel like his fairy godmother at the same time (even if you’re his girlfriend, wife, or sister) Incidentally, don’t forget to let him know that the Ingrown hair night cream was voted Best Men’s skin care product in 2006.
So maybe he only shaves with an electric razor. Electronics such as electric razors make popular gifts and are certainly more affordable and practical. You can also consider watches, wallets, scarf and gloves set—all which can be purchased at your local outlet. Once you have made your selection at the store, purchase a $25 gift card to make your gift even bigger and better.
Just for fun, you can head down to your nearest car dealer with your favorite man in tow, and test drive a Honda, or better yet, a Hummer. You can both dream and he’ll appreciate the quality time you’ll be spending with him. If you go to the local Harley-Davidson retailer, you can also find everything from Harley t-shirts to mugs.
When in doubt, simplify your gift choice by tucking a wad of cash into his boot, or just get him a Cashmere sweater in a bright color—very popular this season. Most guys may not feel confident about their sense of color to choose one themselves and he’ll be appreciative of your thoughtfulness and good taste.
