SEXY SCARS

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

All of us at Kennedy’s All-American Barber Club® believe taking care of a guy’s face is just as important as his hair. That’s something we wrote about in our article, “Let a Barber Put Your Best Face Forward” – and it’s also why we offer our great straight razor shaves, as well as mini-facials and waxing, in our Barber Club membership packages.

Studies show that women actually do like a man with a well-groomed face, instead of someone who looks like he just used a hand sander to exfoliate!

But studies also show something else interesting about how women respond to men’s features. The fact is…chicks dig scars!

Seriously. English researchers at the Universities of Liverpool and Stirling showed women a series of pictures of men with and without facial scars. The women rated the scarred faces as being more attractive. And yes, they tried the experiment in reverse – men did not respond more favorably to scarred women (no word if Tina Fey was included in the test group!).

Believe it or not, the study gets more specific – and a little weirder. Men’s scars were only sexier when it seemed as though they were the result of violence or injury – not the result of acne or chickenpox. The researchers think that’s because a scar from violence of some sort indicates some kind of truly macho guy – whereas a scar from disease or pimples doesn’t quite carry the same cachet.

So what does this all mean? Well, we’re not saying taking a knife to your face is going to get you more dates or anything like that. But if you find yourself falling on a pile of rocks…maybe lead with your chin.

And when you’re ready to take care of the rest of your face, visit a Kennedy’s All-American Barber Club® near you. Women may like a sexy little scar, but they don’t like the rest of your features to be a mess! Plus, we’ll give you “The Best Haircut and Straight Razor Shave You’ve Ever Had or It’s Free”™.

So look for the nearest Kennedy’s location near you – and find out about our terrific franchise opportunities – at http://www.kennedysbarberclub.com. And sorry, we do not provide scarring services!
