Men are just as keen on grooming and appearances as women are, and they should always have the right accessories in their bathroom to keep themselves looking sharp. If your bathroom shelves look empty, consider adding these great necessities so you are always groomed and in style.  

Straight razor kit

A straight razor allows you to have a close, clean shave. You should keep a straight razor kit in your bathroom at all times for grooming your neck, sideburns, and facial hair. A straight razor kit typically includes a leather strap for sharpening and shaving cream and oils to protect your skin in addition to containing a razor.  

Magnified mirror

You need a magnified mirror in your bathroom for many reasons. These mirrors give you a close up of your teeth when flossing and brushing so you can catch hard-to-see plaque. They also allow you to pinpoint ingrown hairs in your beard so you can treat them effectively. For shaving, a magnified mirror allows you to catch every hair and reach all angles so you have a smooth, even shave every time.

Set of bamboo towels

Bamboo towels are not only super soft and luxurious, they are very absorbent as well. When you hop out of the shower you can quickly towel off your hair and body without leaving a drip of water behind. You can find bamboo towels and washcloths at your local home decor store.

Nail file kit

A nail file kit comes in handy for hangnails and cleaning underneath your fingernails when they are dirty. With your fingernails groomed you can always appear put-together from head to toe. Make sure your nail file kit includes: 

• file
• buffer
• tweezers
• nail clippers
• clear coat polish

If you only want a fingernail file, go with a glass version. Glass files tend to maintain their abrasive appeal longer than traditional sandpaper or metal varieties do, and come in a variety of stylish colors.

Charcoal face wash

Charcoal penetrates deep in your pores and then dries rapidly, sucking out debris, oils, and infection with every use. Keep a charcoal cleanser in your bathroom and you can experience cleaner, less oily skin.

Just because you're a guy doesn't mean you can't have excellent bathroom essentials in your home. From razors to face wash, make sure you are always prepared to look your very best by having a shelf or cabinet full of the basic male necessities.
