Facial Hair Skills Course
It was the Egyptians that began shaving, not just their facial Hair but heads too. This in turn was adopted by the Greeks and Romans. Soon these shaven societies began to look down on the unshaven barbarian, meaning un- barbered.
Throughout the years times and styles change, from having facial hair to not; from “mutton chops to the Spivs pencil moustache.” Occasionally, the student assumes he knows the period but follows films and not the actual period.
