There was a time when men who spent too much time grooming were frowned upon. Luckily, society has moved on and times have changed. In fact, today we see quite the opposite: thousands of websites and blogs that promote grooming and thousands more than promote expensive creams and lotions.
However, you shouldn’t need to spend hours at a time in the bathroom or spend a small fortune on grooming products. All you need is a well-established routine that allows you to take care of yourself and your looks on a daily basis. We live in an agitated and stressful world which takes its toll on everyone on a daily basis. Picking up these grooming habits will help you fight stressful situations easier, while looking your best.
Visit Your Barber Regularly
Always be proactive when it comes to cutting your hair. Yes, it’s going to take a while for you to find the right barber shop, but once you do, book an appointment on a regular basis. A general rule of thumb would be to book an appointment every 4 weeks. However, it’s only natural that you would like to get a fast cut if you’re preparing for an interview, a meeting with important clients, or you have an event that you must attend. Too many men postpone their meeting with a barber until other people start to notice that their hair isn’t on point.
Use A Facial Scrub
This may not sound like an attractive option at first but it’s great for your skin. You don’t need to scrub on a daily basis. A weekly facial scrub will do wonders for your skin, especially along the nose lines. You’ve probably already noticed that your nose is the first to suffer when exposed to various weather conditions. That’s because it’s one of the most exposed parts of your face. You may cover your eyes with sunglasses but the nose still remains uncovered. To increase the effectiveness of the weekly scrub, wash your face every morning between two scrubs.
Take Care Of Your Nails
A weekly cut is a must when it comes to nails. For the best nail cutting experience, do it after you take a shower. This will ensure that the nails are soft and it will make your job easier and faster. If you have rough skin around the nail bed, there’s a solution for it. Use a generic moisturiser on a regular basis. A couple of times a week should suffice but don’t be afraid to use it as often as you need.
Find Your Scent
Every man has a scent that defines his personality. Find that scent and use it to your advantage. There’s no need for a man to have more than a few bottles of perfume. Don’t follow guides that tell you what your scent should be based on different reasons. Go in a perfume shop and search for it yourself. Yes, there are certain perfume scents that are better during winter and others that are better during the summer, but you should be the one who chooses them.
Manscape Properly
Pubic hair trimming used to be a taboo subject. It still is in certain parts of the world, but it shouldn’t be. You don’t have to go all out from your first go, but try to be reasonable and trim your pubic hair to the extent you’d want to see it in your partner. The point is to be healthy and tidy. As a rule, don’t trim your pubic hair with the same machine that you use for your facial hair.
