The Approach - Well, like anything, I believe that you have to be subtle in your approach. Just as a woman doesn’t want to be told that she’s a few pounds overweight, or something that she’s wearing might not be the most flattering, neither does a guy.

Seize the Moment - Make subtle additions to his wardrobe using those occasions like birthdays and Father’s Day. Never ever compare him to another man by saying, ‘Well it would be great if you looked like that,’ or ‘if you dressed like him,’ because that’s never going to be a winning battle.

End Sagging Forever? - Now, I’m going to have to say that “sagging” goes along with the selection of your boyfriend. I don’t think we can change, I think we can evolve. Truly changing the essence, the core of a person? Probably not. You have to know whether or not you’re dealing with a boy or a man that will put those things to the side.

Seal the Deal - Put something toward it. If you suggest for a woman to get her hair and nails done, she’s going to say, ‘Well, how much would you like to put toward that?’ Use that same thought process when dealing with your man because that’s going to show your willingness to not only critique, but to try and help.

Replace His Undergarments - Know what he feels comfortable with and just buy it. Nobody is going to be upset with your act of boldness. Just don't talk about it [and do nothing] because then you’ll come across as nagging.

Signature Scent - You have to pick a cologne that’s going to be complementary to his body chemistry. Someone might be better with a citrus or a lime, and someone else might need a sandalwood. You have to know your man’s body chemistry and you’re the best person to know that. Don't be afraid to go outside of typical mall fragrances. It may cost a little more, but the custom scents are truly memorable.
