How to Maximize Your Man Grooming in Just 10 Minutes a Day

Men don’t normally pay much attention to their hygiene. Some simply use cheap deodorant, or have a quick shower before work or a hot date. Shampoo, conditioner, face wash, no thanks. Hand me a bar of soap and call it a day. Are you jealous of my girlfriend yet? I thought so.

 

It’s not that we are lazy – it’s just that we look at grooming as a hindrance. I want to start work or go out and be productive. I don’t want to spend an hour beforehand stuck in the bathroom fixing my hair and making sure I smell like a tulip. However, hygiene can make a huge difference in your appearance and the way people respond to you.

 

If you are busy and just want to get ready as quickly as possible, here are the best ways to maximize your man-grooming in just 10 minuets a day.

 

Slap on the Lotion

 

After taking your morning shower, you can finish all your grooming right away. First you should moisturize with a body lotion to keep your skin smooth for the rest of the day. The thicker the lotion, the better it works.

 

Shave and Tweeze

 

The warm water from the shower opens your pores and softens your facial hair, so right after a shower is the best time to shave. If you are really in a rush, you can purchase a waterproof electrical shaver and shave during the shower.

 

If you really want to look presentable for the day you can do some man-scaping in your shower mirror by tweezing stray hairs from your eyebrows and/ or nose.

 

Prevent Acne

 

For a healthy looking face you should invest in a good face wash. You can get some with salicylic acid added to it to fight acne if you are prone to it.


Get a hairstyle – Any Hairstyle…

 

Learning to style your hair appropriately can make a huge difference in your appearance. Go to a professional stylist at a hair salon and ask for some tips. They will tell you the best products to use, and even teach you how to make your hair look a certain way. Use the advice and style your hair every morning. Waxes, gels, mousse and hairspray can do some pretty amazing things, even for guys.

 

Clothes and Cologne

 

On the clothing front, choose clothes that match. Look in magazines for ideas on style if you want to update your wardrobe. At the very least, make sure all of your clothes are ironed and lint-free. To maximize your time, you should choose your clothes and iron them the night before. This way all you have to do is get dressed and head out. Pick up some nice shoes and a matching belt. These items will get you noticed and project a professional style.

 

When you’re done, make sure you put on some nice deodorant and some subtle cologne or fragrance.

 

Using these tips, you could be Man Groomed and out the door in about 10 minutes. Grooming can be efficient and really does make a difference in the way people react to you. By taking care of yourself, you project confidence and the sense that you’ve ‘got it together’ (unlike many men out there).

 

The trick is to always try to be conscious of your cleanliness and style. Once you get into a routine, you will be able to man-groom much faster. Preparing everything the night before can also save you a lot of time. Now you can avoid digging through the hamper and using your work bathroom to brush your teeth. (Not that you’d ever do such a thing, of course…)
