Personal Hygiene For Men

Just a little while ago I started a series on Personal Hygiene For Men – to date, we’ve had hundreds of hits and visits to the series, so it is obviously a topic of interest to men (whether you are big or not).
I also did a quick side trip to talk about how large men should dress – by no means am I an expert, but with the help of my wife and the few places I purchase my clothing I do know what looks good and what does not.
If you’ve missed any in the series, here are the posts so far.� As each new post is made, the part/post number will increment and I’ll continue to add the new items to the list.� I will also be adding a widget to track important posts so that it is easier to find them and read or look for the tag PERSONAL HYGIENE.
Here are the posts so far (as of June 20, 2009):

It’s about time for the next post in this series, which will be all about personal grooming which goes to things that men don’t spend a lot of time on:
- manicures
- pedicures
- proper haircuts
- trimming bears
- dental care (like flossing, and regular brushing)
- body hair and dealing with it (arm pits, back, chest, abs, arms, legs, and the ‘nether’ regions)
And now something for your reading pleasure, atleast until I complete writing the next post and post it, here is an article from 2004 (yah, ancient history) from MSNBC�- http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4751816�- here is a small (excuse the pun) snippet from the post “The style, Mitchell says, depends on what their wives and girlfriends want. Men go along, she explains, because removing the hair makes the whole package look bigger. She charges $85 and up for the service.” – and I leave the rest to you.
Enjoy!

Personal Hygiene For Men

Over the next few days/weeks I’ll be presenting a set of posts on personal hygiene for men – really, it’s meant for overweight men – but the topics covered will be of interest to others as well.
Being a big guy – big men are often judged on how they are dressed (and if you are in a long line up) how good (or bad) you smell and your general appearance.
Guys – appearance counts to everyone: your family, friends, the public, your employer, your co-workers – no matter what, people judge everyone by the way they look (whether they are the right weight, overweight or underweight).
Hygiene is not just about smell – it’s about personal grooming as well, things like getting regular haircuts, if you wear a beard ensure it’s trimmed nicely, making sure your fingernails are clean and cut (and yes, if so required going for a manicure), using an anti-perspirant (most have deoderants included), wearing colognes (evening) or using aftershave (during the day), taking care of your teeth (regular dental appointments, brushing, flossing).
It’s also about washing your clothes regularly, changing under clothes often (a couple of times per day if so required) or even changing a shirt twice per day. It can even include removing excessive hair on your body (under your arms and groin — don’t make faces! If you’re an excessive sweater, and have seen a doctor they will ALSO give you that advice).
Guys – it’s the COMPLETE package! This is not only to make you look good regardless of your size, but so that you look attractive to the opposite (or same sex, depending on how you swing), and when you’re at work you’re not looked at as the “big guy” – but as part of the crowd because you do take care of yourself.
You may be thinking that this is “girly” – after all most women can easily spend hours on personal grooming (women reading this – no I’m not stereotyping you, and actually admire women who do take the time to ensure that they look good).
So stick with me over the next few days, and weeks and you’ll be treated with some practical advice on staying fresh, and looking good!
