Not so long ago, men put on powdered wigs, ample amounts of jewelry, carefully crafted clothing, and even makeup. If you need to see what I mean by this, just look at pictures of the founding fathers. Fortunately for us, we don't have to worry about manipulating our look so fiercely these days. However, men should continue to try and make themselves look their best. All things equal, good looking people get better mates, make more money, and have more friends. Why not try to make yourself look the best you can?

In this article I'll go over some of the things you can do to make yourself look better. We'll go over some of the basics like dressing for your body type and doing basic manscaping. By the time you are finished reading this article, you will know everything you need to get started on looking your best.

For starters, you need to work on your personal grooming. You don't need to wax your eyebrows or wear lipstick, but you should be shaving or trimming your beard on a daily basis. Make sure your face always looks clean and well kept. This means that if you are not going to grow a mustache or beard, you need to shave your face clean. When you do decide to grow a beard, you need to have it neatly trimmed. Complete these basic manscaping tasks and your face will always look its best.

Next, you'll want to consider what you wear each day. Portly fellas should not wear horizontal stripes and lean folks shouldn't put on vertical stripes. When you have thin shoulders, you may want to wear shirts with collars to add a bit of bulk to them. You'll find that thickly shouldered men look less feminine than men with thin shoulders.

While thinking about the design of your shirt, you may want to also think about the shade of it. Men with very light complexions should not wear brightly colored shirts. They may also want to stay away from grays that make them look washed out. In addition to this, thin men want to stay away from black and other slimming colors. Huskier men might want to embrace darker colors.
