Guys, we forget that we need to look good too. This is especially true if your single and trying to lure a girl back to your place for some body rockin, so all this week will be working together to clean you up from the ground up.

Man Grooming Part 1: Your Nasty Feet

Crusty toenails.

Get yourself a good pair of toenails clippers ( Tweezerman His Stainless Nail Clipper Set) or even better go all out and purchase a complete grooming kit ( 8pc Manicure Set). Don’t worry not all grooming kits come in silver, if you want a studlier version you may be please to know that ACE has a Nail Grooming Kit that comes in a sleek looking black metal that not only gets the job done but does it with style.

Foot Fungus

“Symptoms of toenail fungus, which can be caused by several types of fungi, include swelling, yellowing, thickening or crumbling of the nail, streaks or spots down the side of the nail, and even complete loss of the nail. Toenail color can vary from brown or yellow to white with this condition.”

If you have any sort of toenail fungus you may want to go to a specialist as soon as possible. If you clip your toenails you could spread the fungus to your other toes or worse…you can even spread that fungus to the nails on your hands. Not a pretty site. If you wish to tackle the problem on your own there are several over the counter options but just make sure you wash your feet on the regular and dry them thoroughly. Damp feet in a pair of shoes is paradise to your fungi. Worst comes to worst your toenail fungus can get so severe that surgical removal of your nail would be recommended, that just doesn’t sounds good so suck it up and see a doctor before you end up having to miss work in order to get your toenails pulled.

Misc. Issues: Foot Odor, Athletes Foot, Hairy Toes etc.

Smelly feet happen, even to Jesus, and that’s why God invented Dr. Scholl’s Foot Powder and Odor-Eaters Foot Powder. It’s also said that you should wear a good quality pair of cotton socks because the better the quality the better job it will do of absorbing foot sweat. If that makes sense someone should invent a 400 count of Egyptian cotton socks! Oh wait a minute…Google says I’m a genius because apparently Egyptian cotton socks do exists. Google Search: Egyptian Cotton Socks

Athlete’s foot, if you didn’t know, is a type of fungus. If your feet have scaling, flaking, itchy feeling, a burning skin feeling, blisters and/or your skin is red and inflamed…you probably have athlete’s foot. Luckily we have access to products such as Lamisil and Lotrimin Ultra Antifungal Cream. You don’t want your feet to sweat so make sure to wear shoe and socks that can breathe and if you are using public showers at the gym, dorm or pool it might be wise to rock the sandals. Woman love it when I’m in the nude only wearing a pair of sandals, shows off my strong manly body yet displays a slight delicate side because…well…I’m nude wearing a pair of sandals.

Toe hair, foot hair come in all shapes and fuzziness. Some guys might have a hair or two on their toes while others may have hairy feet that right out of the Lord of the Rings. Once you start shaving your feet you probably will have to continue for the rest of your life so use discretion. Trim or shave just keep the foot hair under control.
