Top 10 Holiday Grooming Tips for Men to Look Their Best

Traveling during the holidays can be exhilarating, but it also comes with its unique grooming challenges. From maintaining freshness on long flights to ensuring you look sharp for family photos, preparation is key. Here’s a curated list of the top 10 grooming tips for men, featuring products from MANSCAPED©️ that can elevate your grooming game while on the go.

1. Start With a Clean Slate: Trim and Tidy Before Traveling

A well-maintained appearance starts with proper preparation before you even pack your bags. Give yourself a full grooming session—trim your hair, shape your beard, and take care of body hair. For your body, The Lawn Mower® 5.0 Ultra is the perfect tool for a pre-trip grooming routine, offering a skin-safe trimming experience all over. Its cordless design and waterproof capabilities make it convenient to use right before hopping into the shower (or while you’re in it). After taking care of your body, it’s time to move back upstairs to address your beard and facial hair. If you’re looking to get rid of your facial hair all-together, try The
Chairman™ Pro foil shaver. If you’re more into sculpting your beard, get your hands on The Beard Hedger® instead.

2. Pack Travel-Friendly Grooming Essentials

Holiday travel means keeping your packing light without sacrificing your grooming routine. For those on-the-go moments, we recommend keeping the following essentials close:

• Deodorant – At this point we feel that keeping deodorant close while traveling is self-explanatory. Stay smelling fresh and don’t risk the embarrassment of your own BO.
• Crop Preserver® (Ball Deodorant) – Keep yourself fresh down there all day and avoid feeling uncomfortable.
• Crop Mop® (Ball + Butt + Body Wipes) – One of our top travel essentials for men on the go, keep yourself looking and feeling fresh with an emergency wipe. You never know when these are going to come in handy.
• The Shed 2.0 (Travel Toiletry Bag) – Keep your travel grooming essentials tidy in our sophisticated toiletry bag.

3. Keep Your Skin Hydrated

Long flights or exposure to colder climates during holiday travel can dehydrate your skin. For an all-in-one hydration solution, the not only prevents irritation but also helps keep your skin feeling smooth and fresh throughout your journey, try our Hydrating Body Spray.

4. Manage Facial Hair Like a Pro On The Go

If you’re rocking a beard, maintaining its shape is essential for looking polished on the go. The Handyman™ travel foil shaver is perfect on-the-go, offering multiple trimming lengths and a sleek, portable design with a TSA travel lock. If you’re looking for a lightweight solution for keeping your facial hair in check while traveling, this is it.

5. Stay Fresh With Odor Control

Holidays can involve long days of travel or festive activities, making odor control a top priority. Try our body deodorant AND our ball deodorant to provide an instant refresh, ensuring you smell great and feel confident wherever you go.

6. Handle Unruly Hair Quickly

Bad hair days can happen, especially when traveling. Pack a small styling cream or wax to tame flyaways and keep your hairstyle in check. While we don't directly offer hair styling products, some of our grooming kits include combs and scissors to help you manage quick fixes.

7. Protect Yourself From the Sun

Even during winter holidays, sun protection is crucial. Apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to shield your skin from harmful UV rays. Although ours products focus on body and hair grooming, incorporating a good sunscreen into your travel kit is a smart move to prevent sun damage.

8. Nail Your Hand and Foot Care

Neglected nails can ruin an otherwise well-groomed appearance. The Shears 3.0 features stainless steel clippers, scissors, and tweezers to keep your hands and feet looking their best. It’s compact, making it perfect for holiday travel, but we recommend getting your nail grooming done before you leave!

9. Groom for Special Events

When it’s time to step out for a holiday dinner or festive party, general hygiene is the foundation of a polished look. Start with a refreshing shower using the 2-in-1 Shampoo + Conditioner to cleanse and nourish your hair in one step, saving time while ensuring it’s soft and manageable. Follow it up with our Body Wash, which is formulated to leave your skin feeling clean and hydrated with a subtle masculine scent. These essentials ensure you’re fresh from head to toe, giving you the confidence to walk into any event looking and feeling your best.

10. Organize Your Grooming Products for Easy Access

When you’re constantly on the move, easy access to your grooming products is a lifesaver. The Shed 2.0 Travel Toiletry Bag ensures all your essentials are in one place, avoiding spills and leaks. Stay organized to save time and effort during your trip.
