Proper grooming

I've noticed lately that I'm really into grooming myself. I don't know if it's because I'm getting older or what, but I've purchased a lot of facial products in the past few months. Or maybe I'm just becoming :ghey: Anyone here spend money on grooming products to make you look to women?

Just let your inner metro out!

I think I've gotten into the set way of things as far as grooming goes. If she's really hot and I want to impress her, I throw in clipping nails, flossing, and nose hair trimming. If it's the regular, everyone gets the shower, teeth brushing, hair combing, shave, cologne and lotion on face.

Don't worry. The itching will go away in about a week or two.

Don't forget to moisterize.

I just want to know if LameTL was hot enough to get the full treatment, or did you just shit, shower and shave before PMing her/him?

A guy who takes care of himself does not make him gay. Ashy skin is not exactly a turn-on so guys should not be too stubborn not to put on some moisturizer.

Not to be facetious, but I thought you were ALREADY gay? That would've explained it, no?

Maybe some posts from R&P? Who knows...I do think nothing's wrong with being a metrosexual. I used to be one...too time-consuming now that I'm married.

Thought so. No, I just believe in equality for all, but I don't want to get into that in here.

I do agree that being a metrosexual is time-consuming.

Fast-TL and I have had some heated debates on same-sex marriage, so I think he confused my vehement support for it, thinking I'm gay.

i keep the boys trimmed up, but never considered shaving

isn't that quite a chore, itchy, and bothersome?

i mean, i don't know

i'm also afraid that if i shave my ass hair, it'll grow back thicker and fuller - like on the seinfeld episode

Kiehl's also makes a line of men's stuff, including a very decent shaving cream. Their stuff is also expensive.

And yep, I use a moisturizer on my face after shaving. I use a conditioner on my hair, and use a limited amount of "product" to keep it knocked in place.

And no, I don't trim my personal hair growth except for ears, nose and a light trimming of my arm hair when it gets so long I can't see the dial on my watch.

Shaving them is no big deal. I've been doing it for years. Now for the ass hair I have no idea; don't have that "problem"

How exactly do you shave your sac? Arent you afraid your gonna cut yourself? I trim around but too afraid to slice open the boulder holders. But then again they arent very hairy in the first place so no biggy. nobody has said anything about it yet anyway.

I have to groom myself.. having long hair and working in a professional setting, it must be presentable.

I shave my balls for longevity too

I have gotten one cut in the 5-6 years I've been doing it. All healed by the time it was time to shave again the following week.
