Men People Beauty Services Places Hands Make Spas

The word "metrosexual" has been used a lot in the past ten years to describe men who spend a lot of time and money on the way they look and on their "lifestyle" or the way they live. Metrosexuals are usually men who live in "urban" areas or cities. When people hear this word, they usually think of men who pay as much attention to their appearance and the way they dress as many women do. In fact, metrosexuals use some of the same beauty services traditionally used by women.

Some metrosexual men are now going to "nail salons," places that have beauty services for hands and feet. Men are now getting "manicures," where their fingernails are cut, filed, and sometimes painted; and some may also get "pedicures," where the same is done to their toenails. Men may also have their hands and feet treated to make them softer and smoother.

Men are also going to "spas," or places that offer health and beauty treatments. At a spa, people can get "facials" or skin treatments for the face to make the skin look better. "Massages" at spas are very popular, where someone uses his or her hands to rub the muscles in your body to make you feel good. People who go to spas may also have "waxing" done, where hot wax is put on parts of the body to remove hair.

While nail salons and spas used to be places mainly for women, some men - metrosexual men - are using these services and it is now becoming more socially acceptable.
