5 BEST tips for men to STAND OUT MORE

It’s not hard to find yourself looking at a male model on the cover of Vogue or GQ, and thinking, “this guy is so fancy and gets all the ladies”. But in reality, he’s not much different from you. It’s just the way he chooses to look and come off to others is different from you. Everyone is different in personality and the way they look, but I believe everyone can look good. Some are better or easier than others, but it’s very simple to look good and appeal to others as a “model”. Boys, I got you. Today, I’m going to give you 5 simple tips to make you stand out from the crowd and make you a cleaner-looking person (in no particular order).

 

Accessories

A very subtle, yet clean and effective part of your game that not enough people consider enough. Little details can make or break the way you look. Wearing simple bracelets, necklaces, sunglasses, watches, and chains can compliment the way you look. They add a little amount of pop to what you already have and make you look fancy and classy. Without accessories in your arsenal, it almost makes it feel like something is missing from what you are wearing, and wearing subtle accessories completes your outfit. Accessories are something that I would highly recommend adding to your game. Here is a link to the necklace I have: Chain with number pendant.

 

Smell

People will always remember you based on what you smell like, and that will also decide if they like you or not. It’s time you throw away the crappy AXE body spray and go get some real cologne. Michael Jordan, Paris, Acqua Di Gio, even Versace if you are looking for a high-quality cologne. Imagine being a girl and going on a date with a guy you like, and he smells like he just got done dumpster diving at the pizza shop across the street. It would be awful, right? It’s very important to smell as good as possible to attract others to you and want to be next to you. When applying cologne, spray it on the back of both of your hands, your chest, and the back of your neck. By doing this, the cologne is getting on your skin as opposed to your clothes. It will stick and stay on your skin, and get messed up if it’s on your clothing. I use this Versace Eros cologne.

 

Fashion/Dress

People will judge you at first strictly based on what you dress like. If you look like crap, they most likely will not even consider getting to know you better or be interested in you. Wearing outfits that look clean and match will turn heads and interest others. There are all kinds of different types of clothes and ways to wear them, and that’s where it gets fun. Mixing and matching outfits based on what you like is fun and switching it up often will always give people a fresh look at you. A person who is more athleisure may want to invest in some PacSun shorts and T-Shirts, as well as hoodies. Someone who likes more baggy clothes will want to look into hoodies, skater pants from Dickies, shoes from Jordan and Nike, the options are limitless. 

The shoe game is also essential, a person who rocks dirty shoes will not get nearly as much interest and respect from others as they should. Make sure you keep it simple and clean and try not to overdo it. Jordan has always been a staple in the shoe game, and they have hundreds upon hundreds of pairs of shoes to pick from for roughly $125-$150. Vans is another big shoe brand, but they are much cheaper, roughly $30-$60 for some very good quality shoes. 

Lastly, the hat game. Hats are something I pride myself in, I tend to buy a lot of hats for around $45-$50 every month. I pick from all different colors and designs so I can mix and match them with different outfits. Wearing and buying multiple items of the same color will not add flair and variety to your outfits. From pink to black, I have many different fitted hats, they add a very unique part to an outfit I don’t think people think about enough. 

There are all kinds of ways to look good depending on aesthetic and body type that I won’t get into, but the fashion game is arguably the most important key to standing out.

 

Hygiene

Hygiene should be a basic essential in everyone’s look. Think of it as a foundation for a house, you should be building everything off of hygiene. I know that part of it is genetics, and not everyone will end up looking like Michael B Jordan, but keeping your skin and hair healthy can be done easily. Shampooing your hair every other day and applying conditioner to it will keep it in good shape. Also getting a haircut once a month is important, maintaining shape and shaping up your head will refresh everyone’s look at you and clean you up again. Making sure to shave and trim up your mustache and/or beard is necessary, and if you are looking to grow out a beard or mustache, keeping that in good shape is important as well. 

There are many different types of skin routines to pick from, some more effective and expensive than others, but they are all an option. Here is a 5-minute video from Alex Costa giving his basic skincare routine.

Showering every day at least once must not be skipped, especially if you tend to work out a lot. Showering will help with hair and skin, and refresh your whole body, and will make you feel a lot better as well. Also putting on deodorant to block out body odors from sweat is crucial. Girls smelling B.O. off of you will immediately give them the impression that you are unhygienic, and that is the last thing you want.

 

Body Build

A man who is bigger than everyone stands out in a crowd, and if you want to be that guy, you must be willing to work to get it. Going to the gym at least 3 times a week for an hour a day will help build muscle in your body and make you look better. Everyone is built differently, whether you are skinny or bigger built, but I believe everyone can get gains in the gym and build and develop muscle. Make sure to not work the same muscle back-to-back days, as you will need a full day for your muscles in a group to recover, so make sure you switch from the upper body to the lower body on back-to-back days at the gym. Also, girls take notice of veiny arms. They for whatever reason find it very attractive.

 

So there you have it, my 5 ways to clean up your appearance and look better. We live in a society where everyone judges eachother off of first looks and impressions, and in order to succeed that way, you must look clean and be presentable, and by following these tips, they will help you achieve that.

 

6 Easy Hairstyles

6 Easy Hairstyles

Doing your hair can always be a struggle at some point. But with these tips, you should be able to have flawless hair every day.

Hair style #1: Slick back pony tail

Let’s start with the hairstyles for when you’re in a rush to get out the door. The basic slick back ponytail is just a great option for in a rush. It’s so easy to do and it looks amazing. You’re going to need a comb (optional), a brush, hairspray, and if you have curtain bangs that you don’t want hanging out, you’l need bobby pins as well. The first step, take your comb and part your hair however you want, I prefer a middle part. The second step, take your hairspray and spray it all over. In the last step, take your brush and slick it back and tie it back.

Hair style #2: Half up messy bun

For the second hairstyle, this is so simple but it’s so pretty. It’s the boho half up messy bun. First, pull out your front pieces to frame your face. Second, right next to your front pieces do a braid on each side of your hair. Third, pull the braids back adding a little bit of your hair with the braids in the little amount of hair that you pull out. Lastly, tie it back in a loop bun with a hair tie.

Hair style #3: Bubble braid

For the third hairstyle let’s talk about the classic but adorable bubble braid. This hairstyle seems so complicated at times but it’s way easier than you might think and it takes no longer than 3-5 minutes. First, you pull out those front pieces to frame your face. Sometimes you might think it’s weird to pull out your front pieces but just try it. I promise that it looks so much better. Here’s an optional step. You can curl your hair before this if you want more volume in your bubble braids. Second, take a normal hair type and put your hair in a ponytail. Once it is in the ponytail pull the ponytail a little bit to loosen it up. Third, take as many little elastics as you need and tie your hair in bubbles down your hair. Last, puff out each of your bubbles.

Hair style #4: Curling techniques

Let’s move on to different ways to curl your hair. You can curl your hair with a beach waver, a wand curling iron, a basic clamp curling iron, and many more.

Curling technique #1: Wand

I’m going to talk about the wand first because that’s the easiest way to curl your hair. Here’s how you do it. First, brush your hair out and apply a heat protectant to your hair. Heat protectant is necessary because you could risk frying your hair. Second, section off your hair into two to three sections. Third, take about one inch of your hair and start curling. Hold your barrel parallel to your face and wrap your hair starting from the bottom of the wand moving to the top of the wand. Hold that for as long as necessary. Make sure that the heat on your curling iron is turned up as high as you need it, depending on your hair type. Once you’re ready to take your curl out, tip your wand upside down and release the curl. If you’re looking for a tighter curl let the curl cool down in your palm before dropping it all the way. For more of a loose curl drop the curl right away. Last, apply hairspray and brush your hair with a wide-toothed comb.

Curling technique #2: Beach Waver

Lastly, the curling iron that I’m going to talk about is the beach waver. Now, this isn’t a curling iron because of how it looks but it makes beautiful beach waves. Which sometimes looks better in your hair than a curling iron. The first step on how to do it is to apply a heat protector to your hair. This is a very important step if you don’t want to risk having fried hair. Second step, section off your hair. This step just makes it easier to do so your other hair isn’t in the way while you’re waving your hair. If you have thick hair do it in a little more than four sections. The third step, power up your waver and begin. In the last step, open your clamp to your waver and wave it from top to bottom. After you have finished one section do the rest and boom you’re done! Avoid brushing your hair when you’re done waiving it.

Why is it Important to Shower?

Why is Showering important?

It is always important to have good hygiene. Taking a shower is a huge part of hygiene and taking care of yourself. You should choose to shower because your skin cells start to function when doing so. You should also shower so you don’t receive bacteria that can cause you to grow a scent that isn’t very pleasant. If you don’t do these things people might not want to be around you. You should shower because it helps your blood circulation enhance as well. When you shower it helps you feel better as well as fresh.

What happens when you don’t shower?

When you don’t shower many things can occur from it. For example, you will contain skin problems. If you don’t shower you can also receive infections such as a common cold. You could also receive hepatitis A, which is also an infection. Another thing you can get from not showering is funguses. Funguses can be found on your skin and even in your mouth. When you don’t shower you can take possession of excess dead skin. When you shower you wash away the excess dead skin, but when you don’t shower that dead skin continues to grow without a different layer of fresh skin. Some things can happen if you choose not to take a shower. When is it a Good Time to Shower?

When is it a Good Time to Shower?

Taking a shower is always a good thing, but some people might not know how many showers in a week are necessary. Many doctors suggest that you should take a shower at least 2-3 times a week. This is because you need to stay clean after you go out and do your various things. It is especially important to shower if you do things like sports, yoga, and working out in general. You can use different products such as Medline Ready Bath Skin wipes and Baby wipes as well. If you are not comfortable with a shower or are in different situations, another option is to bathe. A bath can help you relax if needed. A bath is similar to a shower. That is when you should shower and what you can do instead to still stay clean.

Where can you Find the Supplies to take a Good Shower?

You should always use shampoo and conditioner for your hair. You should also have a body wash and scrub to wash your body. You can find these things at your local convenience stores such as Walmart or Smiths and many more. There are also many things you can use to clean yourself as well. For example, you can use sugar scrubs and soap bars to wash your body. You can also find these at our local convenience store. These things will help you have better hygiene and have a nice scent. Those are where you can find the supplies to take a good shower.

How will taking Showers affect you and the way you Feel?

You always want your body to be clean, healthy, and fresh. When you shower your body receives those same things, being clean, healthy, and fresh. When I take showers it helps me feel more motivated to be active throughout the day and not so lazy. When you aren’t feeling so joyful, taking a shower can help you gather yourself and encourage you to focus on important things. Taking a shower can also help you feel better if you are sick or have a cold. The cool thing about showering is that you can shower at different temperatures. Showers will positively help you. This is how showers can affect you and the way you feel.

Conclusion

Showers are important and always necessary. Always consider taking 2-3 showers a week. If you do so it will have a great effect on you. If you are struggling with remembering to take a shower, set reminders on electric devices or ask someone to remind you. It is okay to forget, but it is not okay to not want to take a shower. You need to consider showering as a normal thing just like it is. That is why you should shower and why it is important.
