Who’s got time for grooming these days?
Your hairline, eyebrows and facial hair are sometimes easy to take for granted. So we prioritize. We might not pull out the moisturizing cream (even if winter’s coming along and the air is going to be dry) as much as the shaving cream. And that haircut appointment will have to wait another two weeks. It’s important, though, to remember that in this world of hustle and bustle, it’s nice to take some time for ourselves once in a while. And, yes, taking care of your appearance means taking care of yourself. It’s not necessarily about others: If ya look good, your ‘do is in check and you smell nice, people will be drawn to you, and that pays.
Men (30%) are above all concerned about their skin. 26% say they care most about their hair — that appointment might not wait, finally. Body odor isn’t as much of a concern but is still the No. 1 worry for 15% of men. 14% worry about their oral hygiene, 10% want their body hair in check and only 5% are most concerned about their facial hair.
