Clean shaved and tight

Description:History[ edit ] Alexander the Great's shaven image on the Alexander Mosaic , 2nd Century BC Before the advent of razors, hair was sometimes removed using two shells to pull the hair out or using water and a sharp tool. Around BC when copper tools were developed, copper razors were invented. The idea of an aesthetic approach to personal hygiene may have begun at this time, though Egyptian priests may have practiced something similar to this earlier. Alexander the Great strongly promoted shaving during his reign in the 4th century BC because he believed it looked tidier. The popularisation of self-shaving changed this. According to an estimate by New York City barber Charles de Zemler, barbers' shaving revenue dropped from about 50 percent around the time of the Spanish—American War to 10 percent in due to the invention of the safety razor and electric razor.
