Men can get away with being pretty low-maintenance—they’re lucky like that. They don’t shave their legs, they can wear their actual bed head out into the world and it looks hot (women have a product called Bed Head, but to be clear, that look is manicured and calculated), and they walk around every day sans makeup without people asking them if they’re okay (women, you’ve likely had people worry about you because you skipped mascara one day). What I’m saying, fellas, is that we don’t ask for much from you in the upkeep and maintenance departments. However, that doesn’t mean you get to go totally au-naturel and still attract women. You do need to tend to some matters. And really, a lot of these have little to do with how you look and a lot to do with making your partner feel comfortable. Men: here are hygiene habits that make her more comfortable. It’s only fair–men have things they look for in women, too.

Easy on the cologne
We don’t want a blast of chemicals every time we nuzzle our faces into your necks for a cuddle—or to kiss your neck. Just wear some good deodorant to handle body odor, and lay off the cologne that makes you smell like a male stripper. That department store salesperson led you astray—sorry.
