Behind the Brand with Bryan Elliott Nobody Teaches THIS to Men—and they Should | Manscaped
Nobody warns you about the first time…
One morning you wake up, look in the mirror, and your face has started doing something on its own. You have hair! It starts by looking like peach fuzz or dirt above your lip. But it’s not a problem and you’re proud it’s there.
And usually without anyone showing you what to do or handing you a manual, you pick up a razor.
Just like that—and hopefully without nicks cut or other injuries— you're in the club. This is an exceptionally well designed electric razor without sharp cutting bits. Relax, you’re safe.
What they don't tell you about being in the club:
This four inches of real estate on each side of your face is sacred ground.
Okay, maybe you’re outgoing and more people touch this area of your face than you realize. But that doesn’t mean this area is any less important. And if things go well in your life, a special person gets clearance to go there whenever you want.
So the thing you press against that ground matters. The ritual matters. You're not just removing hair. You're deciding, every single morning, what kind of man shows up today.
Some of us grow it out. We do this because we can. Others like it smooth like butter. Whatever the case. This is the one moment of the day that belongs to you. Men are simple. We've been told this is an insult. It's not. Simple means we know what we want. We want the game to be on.
The face, chest, pits and below the belt are the places a man actually has to manage. You can cover everything else with a hoodie. Bad day? Nobody sees it. Bad decisions? Hoodie covers the mustard on your shirt. But the face? The face is always on camera. It’s the money maker, bro.
Let’s get it.

I talk to some of the sharpest founders and operators in the world on this show. And one thing I hear constantly is that the biggest challenge isn't having good ideas. It's having the mental stamina to execute them at a high level, day after day. That's exactly what Magic Mind is built for.
It's a 2-ounce daily shot with 12 clinically-backed ingredients, things like:
- Lion's Mane, and Cognizin® support memory, mental clarity, and neuroplasticity for sharper cognitive performance.
- Ceremonial-Grade Matcha, Rhodiola Rosea, Cordyceps, and Vitamin B Complex deliver sustained energy and mental stamina without jitters or crashes.
- L-Theanine, Ashwagandha, Turmeric, plus Vitamins C and D promote calm, balance your stress response, and support brain health.
All designed to give you sharper focus, sustained energy, and a calmer stress response throughout your day. No jitters. No crash. Just steady, clean mental performance. I drink it in the morning before I sit down to work and lately about an hour before a tennis match. Two ounces, one shot, and I'm locked in.
