10 years ago, 5 men came into our lives and changed the way men look and live forever. They are…. The Fab Five! Long before the likes of Gok, it’s nearly impossible to believe that way back in 2003, we were just beginning to get to know Carson and the rest of the gang. Thankfully, with the likes of Netflix, we can relive all of our favourite Queer Eye moments forever! Here are a few things we’ve learned from Queer Eye For The Straight Guy over the last ten years.
Unbelievably Cool Fashion Tips
Did you know that if you wrap the waistband of a pair of pants around your neck, you’ll be able to tell if it fits you without trying it on? It’s totally true!
Just one insanely useful tip from Carson, the fashion god that can transform any smelly, crusty man into a metrosexual hunk.
Hair and Shaving
To this day, we don’t know judjing is (or how to spell it) but Kyan can give some amazing advice when it comes to grooming. Teaching us that it’s always better to shave with the hair, we have to say Kyan was like a dad to these guys.
Spray and Walk Away
Who can forget spray and walk away? Teaching us that misting a little aftershave and cologne is far better than drowning ourselves in some Lynx, The Fab Five started a cultural revelation when we realized the effect a light spray could have!
Spray on Tan
Alright, we’ll admit, this one may be a bit naff. A clean shaven man with a lovely suit topped off with a light orange glow? How many of this hopeless straight guys actually kept up this routine? Probably none, but it was still hilarious to see them getting sprayed in the face with the stuff.
The Romantic Stuff
The Fab Five taught these adorable (but hopeless) men how to appreciate their women. Whether it was being romantic or just tidying up a little more around the house, the guys always pulled through. Queer Eye showed men that you can still do all of these things and still be a manly man!
