We’ve officially entered into flip-flop season, and if you’re planning on baring your feet for the world to see, take heed: If those babies aren’t in good shape, people will be very, very upset. Look, I get it. Your feet have been confined to thick socks and...
We recently debunked the idea that washing your hair every day is bad for it. Our in-house expert stylist, in fact, claimed that this idea is at least 25 years out of date, and based on older types of shampoo that would leave the hair dry and...
There’s a reason why the nearly $300 billion industry promoting eternal youth is referred to as “anti-aging” and not “how to age well.” Because for every one article written about embracing your wrinkles or appreciating your salt and pepper hair, there’s at least 10 written about some...
There are two types of people in the world: Those who smile with their mouth open, and those who smile with their mouth closed. The former presumably have better teeth than the latter, and are likely more confident as a result (which explains why they happily show...
The timeline of a guy growing out his hair normally goes like this: Perfectly fine short haircut → several equally terrible stages of embarrassing bad hair days → perfectly fine long haircut. Those dreaded stages in between are ultimately the reason most men chop their locks off...
There was a time when the only wax applied to a man’s hair was to keep his pompadour stiff and his mustache curly. But while both pomade and facial fuzz are enjoying a resurgence (especially among plaid-shirted gentlemen who make their own pickles), there’s also a more...
In the annals of personal branding, one of the shrewdest moves ever recorded has to be NBA star Anthony Davis coming up with the slogan “Fear the Brow.” In trademarking it (you may recall he literally did this in 2012), Davis not only monopolized the monobrow as His...
We recently learned that one secret to a happy relationship is having separate bathrooms, which makes sense when you consider all the less-than-attractive things we do in there. But what happens when there’s only one bathroom at your disposal? Does that mean you’re doomed to an unhappy...
We’ve conducted a lot of surveys with our DSC members over the years, asking you guys pretty much anything and everything. But the above results, showing what men use to “stay fresh downstairs,” made us want to investigate further—particularly on behalf of the five percent who are...
Bald guys have it rough. Men are taught that going bald should be avoided at all costs, and as a result, they experience hair loss as “an enormous emotional burden” that may trigger serious psychological breakdowns. At the more extreme end of the spectrum, in Mozambique, bald...
For some people, a trip to the beach ruins their hair for the rest of the day: Somehow, your hair both super dry and sticky; and your scalp is also caked in sand (and that sand doesn’t go away — it’s seemingly there forever now). On the other hand,...
Manscaping has lots of perks: It can make you appear more muscular than you actually are; it lessens how much you stink; and it even reduces your chances of contracting crabs. One thing removing your body hair won’t do, however, is keep you cool when it’s hot...
