General Personal Grooming Tips

Personal grooming is a form of personal hygiene. Personal grooming is very important for a positive self image. The very first look of an individual gives an idea how well maintained and well-dignified that person is and what kind of personality he possess.

Few of the personal grooming ideas that can be followed are:

• Wear right clothes for the right occasion. Wearing appropriate clothes goes in handy with good personal grooming.

• Apply deodorant or body spray every morning and keep a container with yourself in case you need it.

• Don’t drench yourself with perfume or aftershaves. A subtle fragrance is more pleasing to the senses than the overwhelming ones.

• Shampoo your hair often and keep it healthy and shiny.

• Cut and trim your hair regularly. Your hair cut and style should complement directly to your facial features and shapes. The cut should also be according to the profession you are pursuing. For example, the hair cut that is suitable for a profession may not go with the financial sector.

• Keep your finger nails neat and clean. Avoid painting them with dark or bright colors unless it is a special occasion.

• Clean and moisturize your skin daily, on a regular basis, especially if it is a dry and flaky skin.

• Avoid wearing extra accessories like nose rings and tattoos in the corporate world.
