Good grooming goes beyond a great shave, solid skin, coiffed hair, etc. Good grooming is a lifestyle, one that can be enhanced in many ways, including the following random, but proven tips:

1. CHECK THE CHOMPERS:Seems like a no-brainer, but you’d be surprised how many men chow down a meal and then step into a business meeting with parts of that meal still stuck in their grill. Discreetly utilize a tooth pick (it’s a tool, not a show piece ) or keep a brush and paste handy at your desk.
2. MINIMIZE THE WALLET: Some guys think a bulge in their pants is cool, and while we think not, we think all can agree that said bulge in the back of your pants is never a cool thing. Empty anything not needed in that wallet and your pants will fit better and you’ll save some time at checkout.
3. REMOVE BLUETOOTH HEADSET: It’s never cool, impressive looking, etc.  If you need it, use it when needed.  If you’re not chatting, stow it away.
4. LET THEM OUT:  Whether it’s the subway or an elevator, you always have to let people out before you charge in.
5. IF YOU ASK, LISTEN: If you’re going to ask someone how they are doing, makes sense that you would actually listen to the answer.  Real gents do this.  If you’re not going to listen to the answer, you’re better off not asking.
