There is something about unkempt hair, bad odor, and stained teeth that can really turn away the fans and instantly make you feel much less like a man. I just can’t put my finger on it. Well actually, I simply won’t because who wants to touch the guy who smells like he dumpster dives in the back of a hole-in-the-wall strip club? On the other end of that, being well groomed and having good hygiene is what set us MEN apart from those other guys. So let’s look into what I think are essential in being well groomed and hygienic.
Powder Your Jewels
Nothing is more of a mood killer than lowering your manly undergear just for you and your partner to be uppercut by the nausea inducing smell of Swamp Ball. That’s why, after you shower, you should coat your gems with baby powder.
Take care of your face
That doesn’t just mean washing your face twice a day. That means grooming your eyebrows and hydrating your lips as well. Even if you’re ready to lay one on her, doesn’t mean you’re adequately prepared to, so get your tweezers and Vaseline.
Your barber should be your bestfriend
You have an incredibly handsome face. It’s a shame nobody can get a good look at it with your unkempt hair and scruffy beard. Be sure to visit your barber about twice a month to keep your hair and beard looking nice and well groomed.
Stop drying out your hair
Something a lot of people don’t realize is that the soap in shampoo dries out your hair, so washing it every day is doing more damage to it than anything. If you’re prone to collecting mass dirt and sweat than try shampooing every other day. It may not sound like a long time to wait but it is well worth it.
Find your own smell
With so many options for colognes it can be hard to find which best suits you, but it is something I feel every man should do. Don’t buy 20 different cheap body sprays. Buy two or three for different environments or vibes and lead with that.
Oral Hygiene
No jokes or puns, this is big. There are so many ways to be able to keep up with those pearly whites so there should be NO EXCUSE as to why people don’t want to talk face-to-face with you.
Manscaping
Hair grows everywhere and for some men, it can be as long as their beard hair so you should know how to properly manscape. You don’t have to go for the bald look or even the 70’s porn star look but it should be kept neat. Bonus Tip: NEVER shave your face with the same razor you use to shave your pubes.
Piggies need a nice home too
Keeping up with your feet is something a lot of guys forget to do. “I mean, who’s really going to be looking at my feet?” You are, anybody who comes over while you’re relaxing on the couch, anybody at the beach or pool, anybody you decide to become intimate with, need I say more? Even if you’re not in the business of showing off you pretty piggies, it’s nice to know that if you did, you would get a foot modeling contract.
There shouldn’t be overly noticeable webs in the mine
It’s embarrassing to look in the mirror to find out that none of your “friends” told you that you have some green gold hanging outside the mines. Something not as embarrassing but detrimental to your manliness is unkempt nose and ear hair. We’ve been there, looking up at an older gent and staring at the wild vines that are just out like they needed some fresh air and sun light.
