Gone are the days when your buddies would poke fun at you for having a skin care regimen. Men don’t laugh at other men going to the tanning salon anymore. Although still dominated by women, the beauty industry is no longer just for them. Men want in on the secret to youthful and supple skin, too. Finally, they understood that taking care of one’s looks isn’t reserved for Hollywood actors.
That’s why the men’s grooming industry will reach astronomic proportions by 2025. How astronomic? Experts believe it will grow to $78.5 billion.
So, unless you have been living under the rock, you should know by now that there is nothing wrong with taking care of your looks. From the top of your head down to the pinkie in your toes, you have to put in a little bit more effort to look good for yourself, your bosses, and your partners. Studies showed that well-groomed and attractive men are more likely to succeed in their jobs. That’s a study you should not ignore.
Teeth
One of the very first things that people will notice when they see you is your teeth. When was the last time you’ve been to the dentist? Sure, you clean your chompers regularly, but you should also visit the dentist regularly. There are a lot of things that changed in the dental health industry. And it’s not just about keeping your teeth cleaned. You should also address any teeth problems you’ve had since you were a kid.
If you have a problem with teeth alignment, you can get braces. Don’t worry because you will not be stuck with those metal brackets anymore. You can get gold braces to look extra cool to your peers.
Stubble
Are you in the habit of cleanly shaving your beard? A study said that women find stubble as the most attractive level of beardedness in men. Clean-shaven men rank the lowest. Stop shaving yourself clean. Get a beard trimmer instead.
Eyebrows
Most men don’t think of their eyebrows. Okay, ignore that sentence. Very few men think of plucking their eyebrows because they think it’s only for women and Hollywood actors. That’s a very sexist thing to think.
Apparently, women see your brows after they notice that bright smile of yours. And yes, they do mind that you don’t pluck your brows. It makes them think of how ungroomed the rest of your body is. So, get a tweezer and tiny scissors to remove stray hairs from your eyebrows.
Hairstyle
If you have been rocking the same hairstyle for a decade, it’s time to rethink your options. Consider changing your hairstyle. You can check out some tutorials on YouTube on how to find the perfect hairstyle for you. Also, get a regular haircut. You may not want to change your hairstyle for now but at the very least, trim your hair every time it grows past the top of your ears.
Taking care of one’s looks isn’t reserved for women only. Men should also focus on how well-put they look every time they step out of the door. It builds confidence and self-esteem.
