Men’s Grooming Tips: 5 Weird and Essential Suggestions

Most people never forget how they first met you. The way you looked doesn’t escape them either.

This is why grooming matters. Whether it’s a first date, job interview, or business meeting, you should always look your best.

And as of recent, most men do. According to the latest statistics, the global male grooming market is a windfall.

More men are taking higher stock in themselves by investing quite a bit into looking good.

This billion-dollar industry is a pivotal shift from women’s grooming habits. Men desire to spend more time pampering themselves.

If you haven’t spent time putting together a good grooming regimen, now’s the time. Keep reading as we discuss some weird but essential men’s grooming tips.

1. Fall for a Good Barber

Cutting your own hair can be a pain. Plus, it’s messy and you could end up damaging your hair or have a really bad mullet.

Find a reliable barber. That’s one of the best personal and professional relationships you’ll ever form.

Barbers are like therapists and family members. Because you trust them with the way you look, you can trust them with your personal idiosyncrasies.

An added bonus is that barbers understand urban and professional grooming. They know how to tailor your look for any situation.

Barbers also know what products best suit your grade of hair. So depending on your profession, schedule a chair with your barber every other week.

2. Manage the Hair Below Your Chin

Manscaping is a must for any man who cares one ounce about the ways he smells. Body hair holds sweat and odor. It gets musty and downright funky at times.

Don’t be that guy who ends the night early because his nether hair smells like a room full of onions.

If you’re uncomfortable using a razor, try scissors. Top the job off with an essential oil — bergamot and sandalwood go well together.

3. Steep Longer in the Shower

Don’t run through the shower like you run your car through the car wash. Hang out a few more minutes in the heat.

Hot showers improve the glow in your skin by opening the pores and cleaning out trapped oil and dirt.

They also relax the muscles after a hard workout and improve breathing by clearing phlegm from the nasal passages.

So hang out a little longer and say goodbye to blemishes and achy muscles.

4. Count to 60 When You Brush

Bad breath is a personal and professional turn off. You can combat this by the way you brush your teeth.

On top of brushing twice a day, you should take your time brushing your teeth. Most dentists recommend two minutes on each side. But in the effort of respecting time, 60 seconds will do.

Brush long enough to sing the chorus of your favorite song two or three times. Then rinse with a peroxide antiseptic afterward. Doing so removes the offense from your mouth.

5. All Men’s Grooming Tips Must Include Routine Pedis

Don’t bother putting your best foot forward if it looks like you’ve been living in construction boots your whole life.

Your feet matter. If you can’t bring yourself to visit a spa for a man pedi, buy the right products to care for your feet at home.

Soak your feet once a week. Add a little tea tree oil to the water to help with athlete’s foot.

Finish up with a pumice stone and a nail file to smooth out the skin on your heels and shape up your toenails.
