A Guide to Male Grooming for Gay Weddings

It’s finally time to celebrate the union of you and your partner and to share the incredible event with your friends and family. While you’ve probably arranged everything from décor to dessert, you may not have thought of who’s going to get the both of you ready. While you probably won’t want full hair and makeup, (and if you do that’s great! ) you will more than likely want complete male grooming. This article is here to lay out all the details of what male grooming encompasses, and more importantly how it will help you and your partner look absolutely fabulous!

What exactly is “Male Grooming”?
Male grooming is essentially the minimalist approach to hair and makeup for men. Some cosmetics are still used, but emphasis is placed on prepping the skin, using products that will control shine throughout the day, and airbrush applied foundation as it look much more natural than other types of foundation, and some bronzer to define the face and brushing eyebrows in placed for a very sleek and polished look. Hair is styled to your liking, and shine sprays are used to give a natural and healthy glow to the hair.

Will grooming really make that much of a difference for me and my partner?
The object of grooming is to appear like your “normal” self, just much more polished and put-together. All male actors that walk the red carpet have their hair and makeup artists groom them for big events so that they are camera ready when they face the paparazzi. Your wedding photographs will be what you have to remember your Big Day, and you don’t want dark circles or a cow lick to ruin what could have been perfection.

Once everything is applied, will it last and not get everywhere?
Yes to both. Once everything is applied and styled, a special setting spray will set your face and you will be sweat and tear proof for the evening. Hair will be sprayed with extra strong hairspray and will look fresh even after the last dance.

Hopefully this article answered any questions or concerns that you or your partner had about male grooming and maybe even piqued your curiosity.
