There are men who care about how they look, they will go the extent of getting spa treatments, there are those who care moderately they will just get their act together and do good hair, smell nice and be on point with fashion trends, There are those who are still wild animals, what they do is wake up dress and leave for their daily duty.
Whichever way they function there are places these men will never reach, or should we say the hard to reach places. They include;
The Feet
The only routine that involves the feet is clip your nails often, wash your feet as you take a shower and use a foot file and oil the feet. Men, having good shoes is just not enough you need well-maintained feet to go with that.
Moderate use of products
Whether it’s fragrance or oil on your hair, the art of grooming is to make an effort, but not to make it obvious through sight and smell, to those around you. Don’t just overdo it.
Manscaping
Shaving pubic hair is important, like any other hair on your body, it needs to be kept under control. This area needs to be handled with caution as the slightest misstep can send you into a world of hurt. There are tailor-made products that are effective and gentle, so find what works for you and handle your package with care.
Not making use of sunscreen
However tough or macho you are, you cannot be tougher than the sun. Sunscreen has been perceived to be a woman’s thing but the effects of sun exposure cut across the board. Photoageing and cancer are just some of the risks you are exposing yourself to. Therefore, don’t limit sunscreen use to holidays.
Being too much of a perfectionist
It is great that you pay attention to your appearance, and men who do so should be applauded. Even so, the idea is to care, but don’t make it look like you care too much. Focus on the basics and keep it simple.
Skimping on deodorant or using none
The fact that deodorant is important cannot be emphasised enough. The truth is, some people give off fewer odours than others but everybody has a trace. Like any other body product, deodorants may not work for everyone; nonetheless, find what works for you and keep your pits dry and odourless. In addition to this, do not settle for a deodorant that just does the basic job; find one that covers you in more ways than one, so to speak.
Long hot showers
Nothing is more relaxing than a hot shower after a long day. Unfortunately, they do more harm than good to your skin. Dermatologists caution that frequent hot showers and baths disrupt the skin’s natural balance of moisture, robbing you of the natural oils, fats and proteins that keep skin healthy. Instead, go for lukewarm or cold showers a few times a week to sooth your body and maintain the body’s natural pH.
Neglecting your hair
Being a man is no excuse for laxity in hair maintenance. The first step is to avoid over-washing your hair, as it will help keep the natural oils intact. The second and most important step is to keep it neat and well-kept. There’s nothing wrong with spending a few extra coins for a quality haircut. Remember, you’re only as good as your last haircut.
