We can all admit that grooming for men is very important and shows off the difference between men who care about looking good and those who don’t. Well, to make things simpler, here are 10 basic rules and guidelines for men.
1. Trim The Nose Hairs.
This is something very basic that makes a world of difference. Many companies make nose hair clippers for a moderate price. Believe me when I tell you this is something that people do notice.
2. Trim The Eyebrows.
It is actually even recommended to get them professionally cleaned (not shaped) to open up the eyes. Remember to brush them up before you leave for the day as this opens up the eye, keeping the face more alert.
3. Clean The Hair Off Your Ears And Neck
This is something your barber can do for you monthly that gives the appearance of good grooming. The sight of long ear hairs, or neck hair going into the collar of your shirt, is never appealing.
4. Keep Your Nails Short And Clean
Dirty, long fingernails require no explanation as to why they don’t work. If your budget or schedule permits, try a monthly manicure/pedicure to have someone take care of this for you. Also try buffing your nails as a way to keep the healthy shine without looking artificial.
5. Brush And Floss Your Teeth Daily
It is believed that it doesn’t matter if your teeth are not perfectly straight and white, but please keep them clean. It is rather unappealing to talk to someone and see built up plaque or food stuck between their teeth.
6. Have Your Clothes Tailored To Fit Your Body
This is a big one, as no matter what your shape is, the right fit makes everything look so much better.
7. Stand Up Straight.
Mom always told us that posture was important, and she was right. You create a sense of confidence and pride when standing tall, showing everyone you are secure in the man you are.
8. Cleanse Your Face On A Regular Basis With A Facial Soap.
Most body soaps are too strong for the face. You must invest in a cleanser that is just for the face, as the facial skin is much more sensitive than the skin on the body.
9. Remember Less Is More When It Comes To Fragrance.
It’s all right to smell good, but everyone doesn’t have to smell it. Fragrance is such a personal preference, and you really must find the one that works best for you. Just remember not to bathe in it.
10. Match Your Belt To Your Shoes.
This one is really simple and makes a world of difference. If you are wearing black shoes, you don’t wear a brown belt. This basic tip makes everything you wear look that much better.
