5 Men's Grooming Mistakes That Are EASY to Fix | Men's Grooming Tips

About this video

McGoff identifies five common grooming mistakes men make and offers practical solutions: not brushing teeth at strategic times like after consuming staining foods and drinks, using shampoo too frequently or in excessive amounts, failing to moisturize immediately after showering or shaving, applying hair product to wet hair, and using heavily-fragranced deodorants that conflict with other scents.

Key takeaways

  • McGoff recommends brushing teeth after consuming staining foods and drinks like coffee or red wine, even for just 30 seconds, and brushing the tongue to eliminate coffee breath
  • McGoff argues that shampooing every other day with a dime-sized amount of product is preferable to daily shampooing with excessive amounts, as shampoo strips natural oils from hair
  • McGoff emphasizes applying face moisturizer and aftershave immediately after showering or shaving while skin is still damp and receptive, or using a combination product to save time
  • McGoff advises towel-drying or blow-drying hair before applying product, as most matte-finish products like putty, clay, and wax perform better on dry or damp hair
  • McGoff recommends using unscented deodorant or antiperspirant to allow other fragrances like aftershave or cologne to stand out without conflicting scents
