Spring has come early to Sydney this year! With consistent warm weather and blue sky, Australia is gearing up for festivities around the corner. Now, gents… no doubt you will attend something special this season where you need to look and feel like you are in excellent form, the Spring Races perhaps? Even though races are full of positive and fun energy, after several hours of boozing under intense Aussie sun in repeat can really take its toll, especially on our skin.

Lucky for us, these days there are more male grooming salons popping up and one in my own town is Style-Council, a boutique mens salon located in Sydney’s Paddington on Oxford Street. It is an absolute men’s haven for skincare treatment. You can receive anything from a facial, massage, hot stone therapy, waxing, manicures, pedicures and tinting. They even stock clothing, fragrance and accessories items from local and international designers ready for you to wear on your next social event.

Style-Council will help you recuperate from those hours of punishing your body with sunlight, grog and finger food. Let them help you select the ideal treatment for your skin to get you back to original condition. I suggest ‘The Morning After’ which is the ultimate hangover cure. It combines three treatments to soothe your aching head, refresh tired and puffy eyes to revitalise your senses… nice!

Relaxation treatments are becoming more and more common among us Aussie males as we are now realising our body can only be pushed so hard and well.. it is also a nice feeling to come out all refreshed with a sparkling glow. This trend is growing rapidly with various other salons popping up specialising in mens skincare and treatments. Another well-founded salon come boutique is Youthworks of South Australia with a similar concept to Sydney’s Style-Council but offering a hairdressing service.

So guys, now it’s time to crop that filthy beard, get yourself a nice skincare treatment, and you will be fresh and ready to roll for your summer festivities!
