Most of us guys care dearly about the delicate kielbasa between our legs, but apparently, many of us seldom perform the comprehensive cleaning it deserves (which might explain why five percent of men are still hosing down their junk with cologne). This, of course, is how we...
Most men like to keep the back of their hairline looking neat, whether it’s straight as an arrow, tapered, or gently rounded. Unfortunately, your neck does not respect these boundaries, and is constantly cluttering them up with random hair. But you can keep the ramparts of your...
We all have a few rogue body hairs that don’t abide by the rules: The random loner on top of the ear; the billowing straggler on your otherwise bare upper arm. They’re longer, coarser, curlier and usually darker than their neighboring fuzz, but what’s going on underneath...
For many of us, “snow” isn’t just this weird thing that happens in the winter, or a predictable thing that goes on in the men’s room at a Miami nightclub — it’s more of an evergreen phenomenon, and it’s happening on our heads. I’m talking about the...
As common sense would suggest, if your face already produces enough oil to glimmer in the moonlight, slathering on moisturizer could be considered excessive. But before chucking your bottle of facial lubrication into a nearby incinerator, come along as we examine the causes of oily skin, how...

If you have a prominent woman in your life or have ever stopped into a hair salon, you might at some point have heard a bit of grumbling about split ends. They seem to be a frustrating thing, and they happen on heads; you can tell that...
That scar you got when you split your lip playing kickball in elementary school? Or the long line down your face that samurai gave you during a duel back in 2008? Chances are those scars have long since settled down and healed, and you can shave them...
Each hair sprouting from your body is unique — like a snowflake, only not really a snowflake but more like a sort of hair… where were we? Oh yes. Some hairs require different forms of removal, lest you look like a stray tumbleweed. With that in mind,...
