The 6 Must-See Men's Grooming Moves You Missed This Week
The best men's grooming game—i.e. a good haircut, some tended-to scruff, and hydrated skin—can make a huge difference in how a man looks. If you ignore all three, well, you won't look like a DGAF rebel as much as a decade-older version of yourself. In order to motivate you to visit the barber regularly or just change up your routine once in a while, we're bringing you all the grooming moves you missed this week.

As proof that you can make long hair and a bushy beard work for you—even in the summer months—here's Milo Ventimiglia walking around in L.A. this weekend and pulling it off effortlessly. The actor proved that if you keep the hair styled and the facial hair trimmed and maintained, there's no such thing as overdoing it when it comes to grooming swerves.

While hosting Miami Fashion Week's "Influencer Brunch," honorary MFW president Antonio Banderas sported a grooming look that isn't for the faint of heart: the slicked-back hairdo partnered with the pencil ’stache and the controversial soul patch. Most people would have some serious trouble pulling this off and not looking like a total sleazeball, but somehow Banderas makes it work.
