The Grooming Guys Blog

In our ongoing efforts to report the latest innovations and techniques in the world of men’s grooming , we bring you this recent “stroke of genius” from a previously jolly British bloke. For years, we’ve been promoting the use of nail clippers at home for men.  Only caveat is that we’ve strictly confined our clipping recommendations to [...]

For the last five years, right after Memorial Day, the Grooming Guys have offered up our tips and tricks for staying well groomed (and not looking like a total toolbag) over the fast-approaching summer season.  So, with the long weekend behind us and disturbing visions men in jean shorts and Crocs running through our heads, [...]

Lots of men’s magazines, at least the ones that remain (rest in peace Men’s Vogue, FHM, Stuff, etc.) dole out superlatives for their favorite men’s grooming items. But, there is one magazine that rules the roost when it comes to official “Grooming Awards,” and that’s Men’s Health Magazine.  For the past 1/2 dozen year’s or [...]

The Grooming Guys get a slew of standard grooming questions from guests in the store and online — you know — why am I breaking out? How can I eliminate wrinkles? Can you recommend a cologne for nighttime events?  Grooming 101 stuff.

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 [...]

We’re not grinches by any stretch of the imagination, but if truth is being told, neither of the Grooming Guys makes a big toodoo about Christmas in our personal lives.  Sure the holiday is a big deal for our business, as like with all businesses it makes up a major portion of our sales, but we’ve never been [...]

Every Presidential Election since we’ve been open (that makes three), The Grooming Guys have offered up our suggestions for how the candidates can best groom themselves to be the chosen one(s).  Our suggestions have always been a bit tongue-in-cheek, but humor aside, these suggestions are based on experience in this arena.  After all, we are [...]

Rewind about 18 months.  One of the Grooming Guys thinks we should carry candles as they are an extension of personal grooming and a great lifestyle product.  The other Grooming Guy thinks they are a bit wussie-like and vows “never to carry candles in Grooming Lounge stores or on groominglounge.com.” Grooming Guy #1 orders some high-end, [...]

The Grooming Guys aren’t young bucks, but certainly wouldn’t be categorized as “older” gents either.  Mid 30’s-ish is where we reside, as do probably a good number of our co-workers and personal friends.  Reason we bring up this age demographic is because there are many men in this age segment who think they are too [...]
