As a child did your mother ever chide you to wash behind your ears when learning the basic rules of grooming? Mine did! Basic personal grooming and cleanliness is essential in every aspect of life, business or otherwise. Here's a basic grooming checklist to check yourself out before other people do:
BASIC GROOMING CHECKLIST
HEAD: Clean face, ears and neck. Hair clean, cut and combed. Men: Shaved or trimmed facial hair. Women: Make-up carefully applied. Earrings and/or necklace shined.
BODY: Clothing clean, pressed, checked for fraying and no tags showing. Deodorant applied. Underwear fresh. Clothing spot-free, buttoned and checked for lint and dandruff. Men: Shirt collar and cuffs clean and adjusted. Tie neatly tied. Women: No straps or slips showing. No make-up on blouse or collar. Fragrance applied sparingly.
HANDS: Washed with nails clean and in good shape. Watchband and rings free from soap film. Women: Nail polish well done and in neutral color. Hand lotion applied.
LEGS & FEET: Shoes in good condition, polished and free of scuff marks; laces or tassels not broken or frayed. Men: Clean socks pulled up high. Women: Hosiery run-free.
HANDBAG/BRIEFCASE: Polished and packed with all necessities for the day (not over-packed - take a separate grooming kit for emergencies or touch-ups).
A smile is the cornerstone of your appearance. Brush your teeth, floss and twinkle!
