Clip our toenails? PFF, why?
Scrub in the shower? Whatever!

We are guys, we just splash some water on us, put on a shirt and we're done.

And three hours later the lady comes out of the bathroom, having handled 50 tools for 50 different things I can't even think of. (And I don't want to know either).

Should we do stuff as men? Seriously. I am asking you.

And I am not THAT BAD, but I am lazy too. I really don't pick my eyebrows, or whatever it's called. And I never do some foot skin treatment to get rid of dead skin or whatever.

Well, my opinion as a girl is firstly, shower daily or every other day. If you have a job that requires you to be outside and/or doing construction or some sorts that gives you a workout, then shower after work if possible or as soon as possible. So much nicer to be around people who do not smell. And no, axe body spray does not get rid of the smell, it just makes it more obvious that you didn't shower.


First: Showering
-Shampoo, conditioner, 2 in 1 shampoo+conditioner, bar soap, body liquid soap... does not matter what you use as long as you end up clean! Keeping it simple never hurts. You really only need shampoo, conditioner, and soap really but its whatever you prefer.

- http://www.wikihow.com/Deep-Clean-Your-Body
- http://www.wikihow.com/Shampoo-and-Condition-Your-Hair
-When showering, do make sure you clean those certain body parts but don't forget behind/around/inside the ears and earlobes(http://www.healthline.com/health/how-to-clean-your-ears#best-practices3).
-Also wash your feet; get between those toes! Clean under all your nails and keep them trimmed(http://www.wikihow.com/Cut-Your-Fingernails-and-Toenails), does not have to be super short as long as they are clean and kept well maintained.
-You can use a pumice stone (http://www.wikihow.com/Use-a-Pumice-Stone) to clean away dead, hard, dry skin on your feet/hands if needed; if you do, don't forget to use lotion afterwards. Pumice stones can be found almost any drug or pharmacy or even grocery store. Just look at the personal care/health/or bathroom supplies sections.

Second: The beard
-As for a beard, well IF you have a beard, shampoo and conditioner it also, its hair and it needs the same special treatment you give the hair on top of your head. As for the beard's length, keep it however long you prefer but just keep it nice and tidy. If you are not sure what looks good, you can always ask around to see what people prefer on you, ask a barber, or google some ways to trim and style a beard. If you are still unsure, you can never go wrong with just keeping it short and simple.

Third: Eyebrows
- http://www.wikihow.com/Pluck-Your-Eyebrows
- http://www.wikihow.com/Trim-Eyebrows-(for-Men)
-Yes the first one is for females but it will teach you the correct way to pull hair out with tweezers. Always pull with the hair, never against it or you will suffer from ingrown hairs. And if you are not sure how much to pluck off, then leave the eyebrows be and come back another time, you do not want to suffer from over plucking and end up hating how they turned out. Start small, get rid of any unibrow first and work your way up to styling them! As for the actual tweezers, simple slant tweezers will work just fine.

Fourth: Teeth
-Toothbrushes should be replaced every 3 months. Brush at least twice a day; morning and night time.
- http://www.wikihow.com/Brush-Your-Teeth
- http://www.wikihow.com/Get-Perfect-Teeth
- http://www.wikihow.com/Care-for-Your-Teeth
-Floss your teeth, this helps get rid of cavities and prevent decay

That is as much information I can think of right now. If something is still confusing or you want to know more, google is always a good place to start!

Woah, someone did their research. Rated your post Winner @Elizabeth
Great job, haha. Well, I seem to be a typical man and not doing about a third of what's in your post.
I better reconsider my shower habits :D

Wow... as a girl I think that's a bit hardcore... lol

I prefer a bath to a shower and I have a habit of reading in the bath so I can spend upwards of an hour in there for that reason alone.. but as a daily wash ritual.... honestly, I wash my hair every other day if I can be arsed :D It's usually up in a pony tail anyway so who cares.... Face washed, teeth brushed, brush hair, tie it up and I'm good to go. Ten minutes max.. .I have neither the time, patience or money to waste on a million bottles of this, that or the other.

I don't think guys need to go to any extremes beyond showering daily and taking care of some basic trimming and tidying. Many years ago I was with a guy who was so ridiculous about his hair that it actually caused us to miss dinner reservations and social engagements. He was so stupid about it! I'm the chick and I would be sitting there ready to go for an hour before he was ready. Whatever you do, don't be that guy!! :doublefacepalm:

Well, i won't spend an hour each time I go shower, that's for sure.
But I don't mind taking some of these suggestions under consideration and think "yeh, haven't really trimmed my beard this week, instead of letting it go for another two, lets just trim it now", .. just an example, like, try to be more aware I guess.
