10 issues women pay attention to during your first date at home

10 kwesties waar vrouwen op letten tijdens je eerste date bij jouw thuis - Manandshaving

As you know, ladies are very picky and have an eye for detail. If you invite your new girlfriend to your home soon, you will of course give her a tour of your man cave. In this blog article we tell you what women find important with regard to your personal care. If you comply with this as much as possible, you can't really go wrong on your first date.

1. Clean bathroom and towels

Make sure that your home looks tip-top from kitchen to bathroom. You don't want to experience your new girlfriend seeing dirty underwear and socks lying around. Make sure that your toilet and bathroom are completely fresh and clean. Prevent 'brown skid marks' in the toilet bowl. Don't forget to hang clean towels neatly folded. If your new date uses your bathroom for the first time, point out to her not to use your shaving towel. Show and tell that classic wet shaving is your morning ritual.

2. Delicious artisanal Italian bath soap

Because most men have an ordinary standard bath soap, you can distinguish yourself with a beautiful Italian bath soap from the artisanal soap brand Saponificio Varesino . Women love these wonderfully smelling soaps.

What also always scores well is a bath soap on a string from the Portuguese Antiga Barbearia de Bairro . These bath soaps smell like a soap should smell.

3. Safety razor or straight razor

Your metal safety razor from Edwin Jagger or Muhle or straight razor from Böker or DOVO on the shelf is of course a real eye-catcher. Most women use the regular plastic disposable razor from Gillette, for example. The classic shaving kit is of course the ultimate men's tool. As soon as the woman in question sees these shaving tools, she knows she is dealing with a real gentleman. The big advantage is that you immediately have a nice topic of conversation in the bathroom. You can introduce her to classic wet shaving.

4. Synthetic hair shaving brush

Naturally, you have a shaving brush next to your razor. It is wise to choose a shaving brush with synthetic bristles . Many women have difficulty with the fact that Badgers are sacrificed for the bristles of your shaving brush. People just feel sorry for the animal. To avoid awkward silences in the bathroom, show your favorite synthetic.

The luxurious shaving brushes from the German Muhle with a wooden handle are appreciated:

5. Complete shaving or beard care line

A complete product/fragrance line from a shaving and beard brand on the shelf shows that you have class and know what you want. Your pre shave oil, shaving soap, after shave balm and beard oil from the same fragrance line ensure recognisability and it stands out. Women are sensitive to that. Make sure that you coordinate the different products as much as possible, such as:

Proraso Single Blade Wood & Spice

Geo F Trumper Sandalwood

DR Harris Arlington

Taylor of Old Bond Street Jermyn Street Collection

6. Classic masculine men's fragrances

Forget those standard sweet scents from the well-known major perfume houses. Choose a truly classic and timeless men's fragrance, such as Acca Kappa, Castle Forbes and Truefitt and Hill. Avoid smelling just like the gray matter. You can distinguish yourself with a beautiful traditional English scent or a sultry and elegant Italian perfume. Women have a much better nose than men. So they immediately recognize a real male cologne or perfume, such as:

Truefitt & Hill Apsley Cologne 100ml

Acca Kappa Eau de Parfum 1869 100ml

Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica eau de perfume 100ml

7. Classic shaving soap in a wooden jar

A classic English shaving soap from DR Harris, Geo F Trumper, Taylor of Old Bond Street and Truefitt and Hill in a luxurious wooden jar is appreciated by women. You show that you find care important, love traditions and have an eye for quality. Women find shaving and men shaving exciting and sexy. It is one of the last primeval male activities in these modern times. It also evokes strong associations with their own childhood: standing next to your shaving father as a young girl. It gives them a feeling of safety and security.

8. Artisan shaving products with distinctive scents

Unfortunately, many men shave with a cheap supermarket shaving soap in a dingy plastic container. Not you! You shave every day with top quality and superior shaving products. On your shelf there is a beautiful traditional shaving soap or shaving cream in a large, eye-catching jar. As soon as your girlfriend enters your bathroom, she immediately smells the striking scents of your favorite shaving soap and aftershave.

Locally and sustainably produced or artisanal shaving and beard brands are increasingly popular. Women are also using more and more care products with pure and natural ingredients. It concerns productions that are healthy for people and take the environment into account.

Below are some traditional shaving brands:

Organic body

Razor monk

Le Pere Lucien

9. Fresh and clean shaven or a neatly groomed mustache and beard

Of course, everything starts with a smoothly shaved skin or a well-groomed mustache and beard. Women are extremely critical and immediately look at how the mustache and beard look. People have a huge aversion to unkempt beard tufts and a greasy mustache. Your beard should look neatly groomed. Prevent dandruff and dander in the beard. If necessary, treat it with a beard oil and brush it daily with a beard brush. In case of a longer beard, you should use a beard balm to keep it in check. Clean your beard regularly with a beard shampoo to keep it smelling nice and fresh.

Ladies are charmed by a perfectly groomed mustache with a nice flowing curl at the end. Use a small amount of mustache wax for a nice curl. Avoid a hobo look at all times. Shave the beard contours regularly with a safety razor or shavette. Make sure that the lady feels your wonderfully soft skin and the fresh scent of the shaving soap or after shave during the first kiss on the cheek.

10. Nose and ear care

We sometimes overlook the hair from our nose and ears. Women immediately see these hairs and are not charmed by them. Use a DOVO clipette to get rid of these nose and ear hairs.
