8 Grooming Tips for Men


As all of us can observe, many men these days become more and more concern with their looks. In the past, it was thought by many that only women should be too interested and give more importance to “vanity”. Well, time has changed and so are the rules and thoughts. Many men these days are spending much time and dough to look great and be well- groomed. Whether it is attending a formal event or a casual day at the mall, guys always want to look their best.

For some guys, they find grooming quite easy while for others, it’s a struggle, lots of misses than hits.

Here are eight grooming tips that guys must know in order for them to play their cards right and win!

  1. Smelling too strong is too much.
Most men go overboard when it comes to applying or spraying perfumes, colognes, or deodorants. Smelling too strong may cause people to run away from you. Choose products and fragrances that have subtle scent and not those that overpower people’s nostrils.

  1. Accessorize less.
Men are not supposed to wear a lot of accessories. A watch and a ring are enough. Don’t put on too many accessories if you don’t want to be thought as a jeweler or a fortune teller!

  1. Find the right watch.
When wearing a formal suit, it’s proper to put on a dress watch. Get your chronos ready on less formal and casual days.

  1. Clean shaven look can never go wrong.
It’s always nice to see a guy that is clean- shaven. If you think you can pull off that stubble look well, then have it but make sure that you can keep it down to the bare minimum. Remember, stubble look isn’t for everyone. So, never lock that razor away!

  1. Trim that unwanted hair!
Nose hair clippers and trimmers don’t cause an arm and a leg! So why grow your nose hair? It is never appealing to see a guy who smiles and has hair sticking out of his nose.

  1. Keep nails short and clean.
It’s a big turn off for girls to see a guy with dirty, long fingernails. Set a schedule to clip and clean those long nails. It won’t cost you an hour!

  1. Skin care isn’t a girl thing!
Most men have this false impression that skin care is only for girls. Men’s skin may be tougher than women’s but all is prone to wrinkles caused by aging and other skin ailments. It is recommended to use a separate soap for the face and the body. Some body soaps are too strong for the face. Better invest in a facial cleanser and a moisturizer to keep facial skin clean and healthy. To keep the skin hydrated, use a body lotion that has high moisturizing contents and always drink plenty of water.

  1. Take good care of your hair.
One of the best assets we can possess is our mane and we got to take good care of it. Have a regular visit to the salon for trimming and hair care if possible. Make sure that you use shampoo and conditioner depending on your hair type.

Looking good doesn’t always depend on the clothes that you wear. It doesn’t matter whether you are wearing expensive designer clothes or not. What counts is having the right grooming habits. It is the important factor to have self- confidence, charisma, and personality that many people want to have.
