There’s nothing wrong with dating a guy who is metrosexual. In fact, some women get all sorts of benefits from dating a guy who is metro because most of these men tend to have an eye for things that most guys don’t. However, not all men want to admit to being metrosexual because of the stereotypes that surround the culture. In any event, here are 14 signs that your man is metrosexual, even if he’s in denial.

He practices the wink and smirk

You sometimes catch your guy in the mirror practicing his wink and then the smirk that follows it. Most guys don’t spend time trying to perfect their wink, but you’ve noticed that your guy is overly focused on it. Metro guys sometimes like flirting, and knowing that they’re good at it.

He’s always in the mirror

Aside from practicing his winks and smiles, you also notice that your guy is in the mirror more than you are. He checks himself out whenever possible. In the car, in a store, when passing by a window, and so on. Your guy goes a bit nuts when he hasn’t been able to check up on his looks to make sure everything is still perfect.

He shaves..everything

You’re used to a guy shaving his face to keep himself looking clean, but this guy shaves everything. His chest, his arms, his legs, and everything else is completely hairless. In fact, he probably uses more shaving cream than you do. Most metro guys absolutely hate being hairy. For them, bald is where it’s at.

He has his own hair products

Gel, mousse, and a special comb or brush are in every bathroom in his house. He has his own personal stash of hair products that only he can use and each product has been specially tested and approved by him. If he ever catches you using a drop of his gel, he takes it hard and gets a bit upset.

He needs white teeth

His smile has to be pristine. In the past he’s had braces and recently he’s been whitening his teeth as much as possible. He gone to the dentist for professional teeth whitening and also has at-home whitening products such as toothpastes and mouth washes. He often comments that he needs his teeth to be as pearly white as possible, since people tend to notice them first.

He’s a meticulous dresser

Metrosexual guys really care about how they look and dress. You rarely find your guy wearing sweats and t-shirts. Instead, he’s one of those men who loves wearing polos, button ups, dress pants, khakis, and so on. He has tons of suits in his closet and is meticulous about his style.

He’s sometimes mistaken for a model

On social networking websites or in public, a lot of people mistake him for being a model. Since he’s always clean-shaven, dressed nicely, and takes care of his body, he’s easily mistaken for one of those guys you see on billboards and in magazines. He loves making note of the fact that so many people mistake him for a model too.

He judges your clothes

Sometimes he’ll help you pick out an outfit. You often find him in your closet picking you out things to wear. He even loves to go clothes shopping with you. In the same token, he’s also one to nitpick or readily express himself if he doesn’t exactly like what you’re wearing. This guy acts like your own personal clothing stylist. Think Kanye West.

You think he needs to hang out with his guy friends more

Usually women want their man to hang out less with their guy friends and more with them. However, if you’re dating a metrosexual guy, you may find that you’re wishing he would hang out more with his friends. Maybe some of their masculinity would rub off on him and make him a bit less in touch with his feminine side.

He’s swanky

He doesn’t drink beer, instead he’s a wine or expensive liquor type of guy. When he hosts parties, they’re always well planned and well put together. Every detail has clearly been thought out. There’s no beer pong or other crazy things going on. Instead everyone is sipping on good drinks, sitting around a fire pit, eating expensive foods, all while surrounded by a luxurious environment.

He doesn’t know a thing about cars

Okay so he knows how to drive them, but if you ask him about changing oil, how to change a flat tire, or what that funny noise is coming from your engine, he’s clueless. You know not to go to him for any car-related needs and when there’s an issue with his car, he has his mechanic’s number on speed dial.

..But he’ll tell you when your car is too dirty

So while he knows absolutely nothing about cars, he will definitely be the first one to mention the bit of dust forming on your dashboard or the stain on your passenger seat. Though he has eyes to spot dirt and other imperfections in your car and elsewhere, he isn’t always one to clean them. Dirty car? To the car wash he goes.

He only wears brands

Your guy is one of those men who will only shop at certain stores when buying his clothes. You’ll never catch him buying anything off the rack from Walmart or Target, even when it comes to socks and underwear. Your man loves wearing Alfani, Ralph Lauren, Michael Kors, and any other brand that looks and is expensive. This is  just another way for a metrosexual guy to ensure that he looks tip-top.
