Male Grooming

[Sid James]

As we live in an ever increasingly metro-sexual age, I wondered what your opinions are to "man maintenance". Do you care too much about your appearance?

Do you spend more time looking good than your missus?
Do you

• Pluck?
• Gentleman's trim ?
• Wax?
• Scrub?
• Moisturise?
• Full on facial mud thing ?

Or is a clean shirt and a liberal spray of Lynx Africa all that's required ?

What for you, is a step too far

For me, occasionally moisturise , when I remember and I've got to the age where the missus insists she does my eyebrows as some of them have started growing independently of the others and have the consistency of a bog brush. Oh and nasal trimming is a must, the guys who have great big hairs hanging out of their hooter look wrong

Oh and sorry @Bungle this isn't the thread you thought it was going to be

Blokes today are a bloody joke. Some of them spend more time preening than their female counterparts.

Anything beyond showering regularly and moisturising occasionally if your skin needs it is a step too far, really. Oh, and dealing with yer pyabs now and then when they get a bit 1970's.

Ha ha, like your not a card carrying member of a Beauty Spa

Not for me. Water/soap/shaving foam/Lynx Africa.
Clean shirt on Sunday.

I couldn't go in the waterpark at Legoland a couple of weeks back because as I was getting changed I remembered I had let my daughter paint my toenails.

And I have the cheek to post that gif.

When you get to a certain age you gave a choice, either engage in the male grooming tasks listed, or walk round with rope ladders hanging from your nose, pampas grass sticking out your lugs, eyebrows like Dennis Healy and skin like an auld casey

Exactly, if you're selling your house, no matter how impressive your, erm , front hallway is, no one's going to look at it if the front garden has a sofa in it

It's less grooming and more essential maintenance as you get older I think, some blokes at work have fairly lengthy nasal hairs, so much so you cant stop looking at it when you're talking to them

Shower every day. Sometimes twice, if I'm going out in the evening.

Anything above this is deeply suspicious.

I used to be a little Nancy boy. I still am but less so. I mean I like my hair done, I shower regularly and I moisturise but I care less about it now.

You tend to do less when you've conned some poor girl to hang around I find

Lads... Get with the times.

The bare minimum, MINIMUM is to trim your nasal hair and eyebrows.

and who the f wants back hair ? Jesus christ.

It is minging when you see hair protruding from the nose, fair to say.
