Wavy hair


Women love to run their hands through wavy hair. Curling bangs at the temples makes knees weak and gives off a seductive air. It has unmatched sex appeal. It is bad boy and runway model all wrapped into one hairstyle. Needless to say it's the hairstyle most lusted after by women. The Hollywood gold standard is Tom Cruise, followed by actor/musician Gavin Rossdale.

Long hair
The most dangerous of all men's hairstyles. If not done properly, it can reduce masculinity and repel women. To make matters worse, the popularity of long hair changes dramatically from year to year. The Hollywood gold standard is Johnny Depp, along with Orlando Bloom, but both look better with short hair. It's usually best to leave long hair to professional wrestlers and rock stars.

Shaved head
Unless nature is naturally receding your hairline - let it grow. Women love running their hands through your hair. It is a sign of health and power. For those of you convinced you want to go bald, try the buzz cut first. If you have any strange or awkward indentations in your skull it will give you time to find them and reconsider. The Hollywood gold standard is Bruce Willis, followed by Samuel L. Jackson.

Grey Hair
Dye it away. Grey fades your intensity, strength, and health. Reclaim what nature originally gave you. Dying your hair isn't feminine or misleading, it's the fastest way to look younger. There are lots of hair color kits you can get off store shelves or you can get a stylist to dye it for you. If your beard and moustache also turns grey, brush in a no-drip coloring gel that's made especially for facial hair.

There are hardly any Hollywood superstars flaunting grey or white hair for a reason. It makes you look old. And no man - CEO or Ordinary-Joe - wants to look old. So stay away from the grey.

Balding
Balding is a common problem among men. Even young men. Some as early as their mid-20s. Unless you're going to fight nature with Rogaine or hair replacement treatments, get comfortable with your changing look and opt for a modern short haircut. Resist the urge to hide under a comb-over. Show no shame in your receding hairline, but don't do anything to draw attention to it either.

Ears
While there's nothing you can do about the size and shape of your ears, cleaning them is a breeze. It only takes seconds to remove the wax from your ears. Lightly run a Q-Tip around the inside of your ear. Don't push it deep inside or you'll risk damaging the eardrum.

While you're cleaning the ears, make sure you don't have hair growing from the rims of your ears or the inner canal. Remove any hair or fuzz immediately, with the use of clippers or waxing. Ears are erogenous zones to be whispered in or nibbled on. Keep them hair-free.

Earrings
Men wearing earrings went out in the 1980's. Unless you're a rock star or an extra from the Pirates of the Caribbean, let your ears go naked. While the rare exception can be made, it's best to pull the metal out of your ears and let them heal.

Eyebrows
Beware the unibrow. Don't be reluctant to trim or tweeze any stray eyebrow hairs. If you have any concerns that your eyebrows are too bushy or uneven, find a tweezing expert to help you out.

Eyes
Few people look better with glasses than without. If you're not one of the rare people with 'specks appeal' look at wearing contacts or getting laser surgery. The price of both continue to fall. And don't join the fad of colored contacts. If someone falls in love with your beautiful blue eyes, they're going to feel betrayed when they discover your eyes are actually brown.

Lips
As simple to take care of as a single application of lip balm. Lip balm isn't girly. It keeps your lips from cracking, peeling and looking unappealing. Use lip balm to ensure your lips always look kissable.

Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, but there is still a basic level of personal hygiene and grooming one must meet to succeed in the dating world. Meeting and exceeding these expectations can dramatically improve your physical appearance.

So don't be afraid to shave, trim or tweeze. Find time to brush, wash, lotion and gel. Well-groomed men take at least a couple minutes out of each day to ensure they look their best because women notice the effort they have put in and view them as more attractive.

While a beautiful white smile, smooth skin and clipped nails are musts for every man, there are two major grooming decisions men must make on their own: facial hair and hairstyle. Each should be taken seriously because they can have a dramatic impact on how well you do in the dating world.

Spend time choosing a hairstyle. Flip through the pages of men's fashion magazines to see what's hot. What's not. Get the opinions of fashionable women you trust. Have a stylist explain what cuts best fit your bone structure, hair texture and personal style. Find the cut that suits you best.

There are many parts to a successful grooming routine. And the Attraction All-Stars guide below is going to examine each from head to toe.

Hair
Women love a man with attractive, touchable hair. They also make some judgements on his character from whatever cut he chooses. Spiky means fun and energetic. Wavy means cool and seductive. Buzz cut means rough and tumble. So make sure your hairstyle matches your personality and style.

The hottest men's hairstyles can be found in the pages of GQ, Details, Men's Health and Maxim. Tear out pages of your favorite cuts and show them to a stylist. Ask them which cuts fit your bone structure and hair texture best. Also consider getting a woman's opinion before facing the scissors.

When it comes to haircuts, you get what you pay for. A high-end stylist will get you a high-end cut. A discount stylist could land you a hairstyle headache. If you want to look your best, pick a stylist who has great references, make a reservation and get ready to look even more attractive.

Short hair
The most common and popular of all men's hairstyles. It's simple, elegant and relatively risk free. Mess it up or put a lift in the front to spice it up. The Hollywood gold standard is Matt Damon, followed closely by Jude Law. If two of Hollywood biggest leading men can pull it off, so can you. And it's one of the easiest cuts to maintain.

Cropped curls
A clean and classy look. The cropped curls or mini 'fro works because it doesn't steal attention away from any of your other features. The Hollywood gold standard is Denzel Washington, followed by Justin Timberlake. The oversized 'fro is a novelty act. It may get attention, but doesn't spark attraction. So keep it cropped.

Buzz cut
The favorite cut of basketball, football and baseball players everywhere. The buzz cut offers a rugged beauty. An intensity and aggressiveness. It's a cut that's growing in popularity - especially as a summer cut. The Hollywood gold standard is Usher, followed by Matthew Fox. The buzz cut is the easiest men's hairstyle to maintain.

Spiked hair
Perhaps the most noticeable of all men's hairstyles. Spiked hair, when done properly, is twisted into spikes - not simply stood on end. It takes time, practice and a lot of palmate/gel to master, but offers a completely unique look. Nothing looks more energetic and fun, giving off a rock star vibe. The Hollywood gold standard is rocker Mark McGrath.

Braids
One of the more daring hairstyles. Braids are eye-catching, bold and ooze confidence. It's a great hairstyle to ensure you get noticed. Once braided, the hairstyle is easy to maintain and won't fall out of place. Braids offer a unique look, but can be time-consuming and expensive to get done. Their visual impact also diminishes as more people try them. The Hollywood gold standard is Xzibit, followed closely by Busta Rhymes.

Slicked
Pulled back and professional. The slicked back hairstyle is associated with confidence, class and power. It's eye-catching and daring, but not usually a young man's hairstyle. The Hollywood gold standard is Andy Garcia, followed by Alec Baldwin.
