Justin Timberlake’s Grooming Tricks
Justin Timberlake has won Grammys, killed it on Saturday Night Live, and revived the fedora. Now he’s the face of Givenchy’s new men’s scent, Play.
What cologne would your character from “Dick in a Box” wear?
“That guy’s trying way too hard. That guy wears way too much cologne.”
What was your first scent?
“Polo. It was a big deal for ’80s kids.”
Were you involved with the creation of Play?
“I didn’t go in and, like, mix things. But I told them I wanted something citrusy and fresh. I like that out-of-the-shower smell.”
How long does it take you to get ready?
“Not too long. A half-hour, tops.”
What about your hair?
“My secret for my hair is that I don’t wash it. I shampoo it once every ten days or so. It’s more manageable with the natural oil.”
Curly hair is hard, right?
“It’s very hard. They don’t make shampoo for curly hair. They say they do, but they don’t.”
How do you get that perfect stubble?
“I just use a trimmer. If I keep it at a certain length, I get fewer complaints about how it feels against the cheek.”
What scents do you like on women?
“I’m the quintessential male. They did a study on what men really like to smell on women, and they responded to things like pumpkin pie and vanilla way more than a bouquet of flowers.”
So you want a woman to smell like pumpkin pie?
“Well, when you smell something like freshbaked cookies, you’re like, ‘Mmm, I want a cookie.’ It’s the same thing with men. We’re such primates.”

There are some people that don’t wash their hair daily or weekly… it’s called the ‘No ‘Poo Method’. I got this from a site called http://www.instructables.com since I have heard of this before, I will share with you.
“To go No Poo is to stop using shampoo. Why would you want to do this?
1. Shampoo is expensive.
2. Chemicals in shampoo can irritate and dry out your scalp and hair.
3. Chemicals in shampoo can be hazardous to your health.
4. Your body produces oil to naturally condition your hair and keep it healthy. Using shampoo daily upsets the natural balance and causes you to produce more oil than necessary to compensate.
When you stop using shampoo, you will probably experience a transitional period while your body gradually adjusts to produce just enough oil to keep your hair healthy. During this time, which can range from a few days to a few months, you’ll probably have some extra oil and grease that you may want to take care of to look presentable. The cheapest and most effective way to handle this is to use baking soda. The method I use involves a plastic cup, some baking soda, and a shower. You may also want to condition your hair after using the baking soda mixture, as sometimes it can leave your hair a bit dry. There are lots of different ways to do this; I use apple cider vinegar.”
LOL this whole thing cracked me up. i especially love the last q&a.
he’s right about the oils you know.
I can relate to Justin as I have naturally curly thick hair and it is hard to control, none of the serums for frizzy hair works and I only wash my hair once a week because of the frizz.
