RE: Your Unibrow & Setting A Poor Example For 40 Years
Dear Bert:
This has gone on long enough. For awhile we brushed it off as being quirky and cute, letting it slide because of your status as an iconic character on a classic children’s series. We bit our collective tongues as [...]
It’s much easier to complain about a problem than to fix it. Every body knows this. And while we almost never take the simple way out, here are some real problems men put on their bodies every day. We don’t really know how to fix to these problems… other than to tell guys “you should [...]
We get a lot of questions here querying how men should prepare (from a grooming perspective) for important events such as job interviews and big dates. More so than one would think, these two seemingly different occasions are quite similar in that their success depends quite a bit on first impressions (a lot has to [...]
It happens to every guy. Admit it. Even those with the most unwavering adherence to strict exercise plans and healthy diets have been in a public situation where they just gotta let one fly. Us Grooming Guys aren’t above broaching the topic it if it helps a gent maintain his status… so here are our [...]
If there’s anything we’ve learned in the men’s business over the past 10 years, it’s that the “little things make all the difference.” Time and time again we’ve been told that the details are often what our guests remember most after visiting with us.

This is going to be a short one — four trite paragraphs we’re thinking. Us Grooming Guys (you know, the two fellas with the snazzy new picture at the top of this blog), just wanted to trumpet the greatness of a brand new lifestyle product we recently launched — Wurkin Stiffs magnetic collar stays.
We heard [...]
While we probably won’t be edging out Lil Wayne or Justin Timberlake for an MTV Video Music Award anytime soon, the Grooming Guys have developed our own little telecast that we’re quite proud of. Devoid of any great dancing, scantily clad ladies or display of bling, this two-minute vignette is solely focused on showing a [...]
As you might have guessed, the Grooming Guys are a bit obsessed with cleanliness, appearance and sanitation. Hence, it’s been more than a few times that we’ve sat in our D.C. offices to review proper public bathroom protocol, complain about bathroom etiquette infringers and detail how a true gentlemen can exit such a locale gracefully without actually [...]
This January we were in the office when Grooming Guy Pirooz strolled in with a messenger-type bag I just had to ask him about. “It’s a Jack Spade” he said. Recalling that I indeed carried a Jack Spade wallet (albeit not nearly as hip as the ones we are carrying now), we had a kismet [...]
