Male Grooming Habits
While women usually take a lot of flack for the time they spend on their appearance, they don't have the market cornered when it comes to grooming. Lots of men spend several hours each week working hard to look attractive to the opposite sex. While they're free from the challenges of makeup application and selecting the right pantyhose, men still have plenty to do when it comes to personal care. Does this Spark an idea?

Skin Care

Some men consider their daily soap and water in the shower to be all the skin care they need, while others go all out when it comes to putting their best face forward. Dry or oily skin, acne, aging and sun damage often necessitate the use of skin care products. Men's versions of moisturizers, exfoliating scrubs, facial wash and acne treatments are available for the guy who wants to take skin care to a new level.
Hair Removal
-
What used to be a woman's world is sacred no longer. The modern man has taken an interest in hair removal, too. While guys don't have to deal with the drudgery of shaving their legs, they have hair removal issues of their own. The uni-brow really isn't attractive, no matter who you are. The same goes for stray nose hairs and burgeoning ear bristles. Other men prefer a smooth chest, achieved by waxing or depilatory use --- no longer activities for bodybuilders only. Laser hair removal is an option for guys who are tired of neck hair that grows out well before they need a haircut.

Women love to run their fingers through a man's hair, and guys always want to be ready for that special moment. Shampoos for oily and dry hair, as well as those to enhance shine and build body, are options. Many men color their hair to cover the gray, or highlight their locks to bring out natural highlights. Rather than hitting the barber shop, some guys choose to find a stylist to give them the best look possible. And let's not forget the regular regimen of products to grow hair, for those who notice thinning.
Fragrance
-
Men have long known the power of a tantalizing fragrance to attract the opposite sex. Matching deodorants, shower gels, aftershaves and colognes allow men to smell good from the early hours to late at night. Some guys choose one scent and stay loyal to it throughout their lives, and others prefer to have a collection of colognes to choose from. Men's fragrance companies promote image above all, implying that by using their product, men ensure their success in the boardroom, bedroom and on the ball field.
