Getting a shave is sort of just like cutting the grass. If you do not keep it in check, it will most certainly grow out of control; this means that you would have a beard and a mustache that could potentially grow long enough to make you look like those Kung Fu masters in old Chinese movies.

Getting a shave should be more than just something that you need to do before you go to a meeting for a job application. It should be something more than a few extra minutes spent every morning in the bathroom after you head on out of the shower. Getting a shave actually does mean a whole lot more to you than you think. Having a cleanly shaved face works wonders for guys.

1. No beard and no mustache means there are less germs on your face.

Getting a whole lot of germs on our skin seems to be a thing that we all seem unaware about. If you did not know yet, hairs on our skin harbor more germs than you actually think. This is why shaving your beard and mustache often helps you get cleaned up.

Aside from having a cleaner facial appearance, you will definitely have much less germs on your face than that of having your beard or mustache. These things can harbor germs that could cause colds and other things.

There is another way for you to get rid of these, and that is to constantly soap your beard and mustache frequently to kill off those germs. If you think about it, shaving is a whole lot faster than having to soap that portion of your face every now and then. So the next time you scorn the thought of having to shave, think about how many germs you're saving yourself from.

2. Your girlfriend might like you better without a whole lot of facial hair.

Some girls prefer their men looking sharp and clean. It does not really matter if you are in a coat and tie or a jump suit; what matters to some is the amount or lack thereof of facial hair in their men.

Whatever the reason may be, whether all that facial hair tickles them whenever you snuggle up to your woman or not, doing something as simple as this might actually help you out a lot with making your woman happy. Think about it, it is only going to take you a minute or two to cleanly shave your face. And with that, you would make your girlfriend happy for a day or two looking at a clean face.

3. You are going to look a whole lot more formal.

Whether you are attending a wedding, a dinner party or any other occasion, looking good and dressing right for the occasion should definitely be thought through thoroughly. If you are attending a wedding, you would not want to be remembered as that hairy guy standing next to the pretty girl now, do you?
