Deepak Jaiin has five grooming tips for men
While women always keep up with the fashions and trends and take proper care of their looks, men tend to overlook these factors. It is okay if men do not take fashion or trends seriously, but, they do need to understand the importance of hygiene and the problems that come if they do not take care of hygiene. Especially in the pandemic's time, the world is more aware of the importance of hygiene and that is how we can work better towards keeping our health and hygiene in place.
Let us see some tips that can help you maintain better hygiene in your daily life:
Use moisturiser or sunscreen
It is important to keep the skin moisturised and protected from direct sun rays. A moisturiser helps in keeping the skin away from chilly dry winds and sunscreen helps in protecting your skin from harmful UV rays of the sun. Apply moisturiser as and when required so that your skin does not look dry and flaky. A moisturised skin always looks good and gives a good glow to your face. Also, make it a habit to apply sunscreen when you go outside in the sun so that you can avoid tanning and pigmentation.
Go easy on shampoo
It's completely fine to wash your hair daily but shampooing your hair every day is not ok. Shampoos have harsh chemicals in them which make them dry faster. Ideally, you should wash your hair just two-three times a week. Even if you are shampooing your hair daily, reduce the amount of shampoo that you apply. Take a pea-size amount of shampoo. If you have long hair then you can massage shampoo just on your scalp and apply hair conditioner on the ends.
Keep your beard soft
The phrase ‘you are what you eat’ can be held for your beard as well. If you do not provide proper nutrition to your beard, it will turn out to be a brittle skeleton and start scratching everything that it touches. Apart from a good protein diet to support hair growth and wellness, you can routinely apply beard oils, conditioning creams, and nourishing balms to your beard. Using these supplements for your beard will keep it hydrated and help you maintain the shine and health of your beard too. It would also keep them away from looking frizzy. Not just this, these products also hydrate the skin beneath the beard and prevent beard dandruff.
Keep your lips soft
With winters coming our way, lips are going to be dry and rough. Let us see what we can do to keep our lips soft. Always make sure that you remove the dead skin on your lips by using a toothbrush. This is a very quick exfoliator for those who lack time to exfoliate lips with a scrub. Also, make sure that you carry lip balm to apply it as and when your lips get dry. Dabbing some coconut oil or ghee on your lips is also a good remedy.
Smell good
The bad smell from men is a huge turn-off and leaves a bad impression. Make sure to apply some perfume before you step out of the house, to keep yourself fresh.
You can also keep the pocket perfume with you and use it as and when required so that you always smile good and feel fresh. This is a very important aspect of hygiene, so remember to smell good on important occasions.
These were some simple tips to groom yourself and make yourself look the best. These tips hold good for all types of occasions.
Whether you're going on a date or to attend an important office meeting, these tips will always make you leave a lasting impression.
So go ahead and start using these tips to 'feel' handsome on all occasions.
