Here’s the inside scoop directly from Jimmy Nevis to you…
It’s no secret that you are a very busy man – Are there any tips you can give as to how you manage to find the time to stay well-groomed and healthy?
Waking up early and having two of each when it comes to essentials. I have a travel bag for short trips which has its own shaver, cologne and own set of moisturisers in it. I also keep cologne and moisturisers in my car – to make sure I always look and smell on point.
Does grooming play an important role in your day-to-day life?
Yes, I use an electronic hair shaver every week and trim my beard daily. I also make sure to moisturise as much as possible. Especially for when I’m attending business meetings or performances, I like to look the way I feel.
Do you have a strict grooming routine or do you change it up every once in a while?
I always change it up now and then. I like to try new products but I do keep the essentials at a close hand. For example, I have sensitive skin on my neck, so I trim and shave the night before so that the skin can heal and breath for the next day – it just looks smoother and better!
What’s your go-to brand when it comes to fragrances?
I enjoy any Chanel Cologne or Dolce & Gabbana’s Light Blue.
How did you discover your love for music?
The church was a big influence. I’ve always loved singing and performing- it set me free and allowed me to discover the best parts of me. I think most people feel that way about finding their passion and mine is music.
Describe a life without music.
It wouldn’t be any life at all – in fact, all life’s greatest moments would feel incomplete without it.
Describe your style in no more than 3 words?
Risky. Fashion Forward. Symbolic.
