Always Be PreparedPERSONAL HYGIENE It's embarrassing how many people I know do not follow these basic rules: Oral Hygiene Home to a city of disgusting bacteria living in their own filth, your mouth is the dirtiest place on your body. Ever meet someone whose breath smelled like shyt? It's because there really is feces in your mouth if you don't clean it properly. Hell, microorganisms may be small, but they got to take a dump like the rest of us. Does this gross you out? Good! Maybe it will force you to remember to: 1. Floss 2. Brush 3. Use a tongue scraper. 4. Mouthwash. Hair Don't wash with shampoo everyday, it dries your scalp and eliminates your natural smell. Use a hot water rinse instead and shampoo every few days. Remember when your mom told you to wash behind your ears? Few people know this but it's because you secrete most of your pheremones around this area. Ever smell a girl right where her neck meets the back of her ear? Ever notice her do the same to you? Looks like Mom was trying to sabotage your game with her advice! Body Shower every day. No exceptions! Give your body a once over and give your stink zones (armpits, crotch, ass & feet) a couple of extra washes for good measure. I personally use natural bath products and am a big fan of Dr. Bronner's soaps. Peppermint soap is the bomb! Gives your nuts a nice tingly-clean feeling. FLY GEAR My style used to be straight up gangsta. Oversized clothes, with the bling bling and the whole 9. How did it work out for me? Women ignored me on the street. Having mellowed out quite a bit in the last few years, my style has become more classic and refined. My clothes fit me well, tailored to my form, not too baggy or tight but just right. Now I notice women noticing me and it makes it so much easier to meet them when they are already attracted. Looks may not be everything, but good presentation really does make a difference! Footwear If you are going to spend good money on anything, make sure you get a nice pair of shoes. Women are ALWAYS checking out your kicks and are impressed by the rare man who has distinguishing taste in footwear. It's cool to wear your sneakers too if they are crispy clean and you match their color with your outfit. I have a pair of Nike boots that are the best. They are AirMax for comfort but with a nice pair of pants, they look like dress shoes. Shirts • Have at least 2 long sleeve dress shirts • Short Sleeve dress shirts where the sleeve is cut around mid-bicep level. • A few polo shirts • Some T-shirts with nice logo/design work on them Pants • I LOVE cargo pants! So many places to stash things. • At least 1 pair of dress slacks • Some classic blue jeans • A pair of black jeans • Some nice linen pants/shorts for the summer Accessories I don't really like to wear too much jewelry. I have two Kangol hats and a leather bracelet with tiny seashells on it that my niece made for my birthday (Just imagine the HB's go Awwww!) Favorite Places to Shop • H&M • Structure • Zara • J Crew • Gap I could go on, but I am not much of a fashionista. My style is very casual and I am a cheapass when it comes to gear. I could care less about a brand name as long as it looks good on me. If you are lookin for a more contemporary/upscale look, our friend Vassago has a detailed thread on this and he does a much better job explaining How to Make Yourself Good Looking |
