Hygiene checklist for dating

To make sure you covered all the bases, check out this D-day hygiene checklist:

• Shower.
• Wash your hair.
• Wash your ears (inside, out, and behind).
• Brush and floss.
• Clip or file your nails (don’t forget your toenails — hey, you never know).
• Shave (face, legs, armpits). Note: “Hairless” is not a synonym for “clean.”

Personal preference rules.

• Pluck. (Guys: pay special attention to the bridge of your nose and earlobes; women: don’t skip the chinny chin chin.)
• Apply deodorant (go for the gold; use an antiperspirant).
• Wear clean underwear (Mom was right again).
• Wear freshly laundered clothes.
