Will You Shave?



This post is a part of #WillYouShave activity at BlogAdda in association with Gillette
I was tagged by my friend tennyson to blog about this contest that was happening at blogadda.
At first,I thought,"what say will I have in a contest that apparently seems to be designed for men only?"
To that question of mine,BlogAdda had an answer in the form of these lines:
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.
  • An instance when a well groomed look ensured that they struck gold on an opportunity given to them.
So,I racked my brains,trying to think of an incident or two,where a clean-shaved look benefitted a man better than any hot stubble would.Needless to say,yes,I am a stubble person.(It only suits some people,but oh!When it does!)
Not getting entrapped into any further distractions,let’s go back to the topic:Of clean-shaved men,and the golden opportunities they land because of their highly sophisticated looks and neat attire!
As you all probably know very well,I am quite the extrovert.Needless to say,I have friends in all the places one can think of!(Exaggeration;but not quite!woot woot).So it is an obvious fact that I am friends with seniors from college.Engineering colleges are reknowned for their placement seasons.I know a lot of seniors who are dear buds of mine,and who sport beards and moustaches as proudly as a grizzly bear would carry off his mane!But,come placement season,all the beards are gone,and you can witness these junglee’s come back to humankind!Gone is the bearded scrawny,shaggy look of rebellion that four years of hard work forces them to adopt1Instead,they now turn into well-groomed,sophisticated,civilized MEN who are ready to earn their bread and make a name for themselves in the big bad world!
It’s funny how a small thing like shaving can make such a huge difference in one’s perception of another human being,but nevertheless,it does.And,I should probably not forget to mention this:but all of them land jobs-good ones,at that!So,kudos to shaving.Cheers,Gillette!
I further tag yash shah and shreyank joshi to carry forward this challenge.Don’t forget to mention me as the kid who nominated you,guys.
To the rest of you lovely people,thanks for reading.Happy Holidays!
