Men certainly aren't immune to taking an interest in their appearance, especially when it comes to grooming. Beard upkeep, eyebrow plucking, and messy man buns are just a few of today's grooming concerns. 

And just like ladies, guys deserve to have plenty of hacks at their disposal to help achieve -- and maintain -- their desired look.

To that end, The List TV tapped stylists at Keep It Cut salon in Phoenix to share a few unexpected grooming hacks to keep in mind. For example, did you know that a piece of denim can be used to revitalize a dull razor before shaping up your edges? Well, it can. And the key to an instant makeover is simply parting your hair to the opposite side.

Nick Jonas is the latest, and most unexpected, celebrity to join the candy-colored hair trend. Well, sort of. 

The 22-year-old covers the latest issue of Adon magazine sporting a cobalt blue 'do, which looks precisely painted on, and a silver jacket (we're getting major '90s boy band vibes). The singer/actor also shows off his best "blue steel," giving Zoolander a run for his money. The mag shared the image on Instragram Tuesday. 

The mag also shared an image from inside the issue, which shows Jonas looking all pensive in an all-red ensemble, complete with matching fiery hair, as he sits at a red piano.

Sheer gorgeousness. 

Jennifer Lopez wears a sheer Balmain jumpsuit in a new spread for Paper magazine. The suit was designed by Olivier Rousteing, with whom she appears on the cover of Paper's September 2015 issue as designer and muse.

She shared the photo along with a handful of others from the shoot on Instagram Wednesday along with the hashtag #LuxeinFlux. 

"All the muses that have inspired me are really strong and they sometimes fight against the world to show their own rules, which I think Jennifer did throughout her career and she's still doing it," Rousteing said in the accompanying interview. "You see many stars today try to look like her. She imposes her own rules. And when I think, 'What is the Balmain girl?,' it's this. It's a woman who knows what she wants and is going to express it."

"The concept of a fearless, strong woman who radiates confidence inside and out is an inspiring idea," 46-year-old Lopez added. "It's a great thing for young girls and women to see Balmain's muses illustrated by these ideas of strength and beauty. For them it's about a woman who creates her own destiny and forges her own future."

Kanye West, a man who has tried to explain his habit of not smiling (publicly), saying, "Not smiling makes me smile … When you see paintings in an old castle, people are not smiling 'cause it just wouldn’t look as cool," looks near ebullient in this photo posted by his sister-in-law Kylie Jenner. 

It's not like we've never seen Kanye smile before. And it's not like we should really make such a big deal when the man does smile, but he has such a great smile -- and a lot to smile about.

Hello, Countess. 

Lady Gaga transforms into her "American Horror Story: Hotel" character, The Countess, for the latest cover of Entertainment Weekly. In the shot, the platinum star appears in a white ensemble with a bloody neck and black, taloned hand. 

Gaga will make her "AHS" debut in Season 5 as The Countess and owner of Hotel Cortez. She is a glamorous socialite with a hunger for love and sex, who maintains her looks by drinking human blood. 

“I’ve just been weeping while I’m here because I have returned to something I’ve believed in so much, which is the art of darkness,” she told EW. “It’s not something that everyone understands, but, for the people that do -- 'Horror Story' fans, my fans -- there is a true connection between us, and it’s a language within itself.”

The first photos of Gaga on set surfaced last week while the cast was filming outside of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Now this is the kind of body language we like to see. 

Tumblr user The Nameless Doll is responsible for creating some truly magical Disney princess artwork, reimagining beloved characters in a slew of different ways. Her most recent installment, an attempt to make the princesses look "plus-size," in her own words, is eye-opening to say the least.   

Belle:

In the series of altered photos, Belle, Rapunzel, Anastasia and Elsa are each manipulated to have fuller figures. Compared to their original shapes, they are certainly curvier, but at second glance, they just look like healthier versions of themselves.

Elsa:

The juxtaposed images serve as a reminder of how unrealistic the proportions of Disney princesses truly are. As Rapunzel's caption says, all we see here are "strong, confident, beautiful" young ladies.

Interior designer Nate Berkus has a few loose guidelines he follows when infusing a space with beauty and personality: focus on the details (like textures and shapes), add personal touches to the space and be willing to break age-old design rules. When it comes to dressing up windows, for example, Berkus believes that the best way to add some much-needed drama is to do something relatively untraditional.

"You don't have to have one treatment per window," he says. "That is not a rule."

Instead, Berkus opts for the more dramatic two-treatment look:

1. Add a flat woven shade on the inside of the window.


2. Add draperies to flank the window.

How you hang the draperies is key, he adds.

"Draperies on a rod... should always go from floor to ceiling," Berkus says. "It makes the ceilings feel taller."

And just like that, your windows transform from drab to dramatic.

A clothing company is pointing out the absurdity of Missouri lawmakers proposing an intern dress code shortly after two of their peers resigned due to alleged inappropriate conduct toward interns.

Even though the dress code idea was quickly struck down, Raygun, a clothing company, came up with a tongue-in-cheek solution to help the lawmakers -- a shirt that works in lieu of the code.

In May, Missouri House Speaker John Diehl (R) resigned after screenshots of texts between himself and a former intern were made public. Two months later, state Sen. Paul LeVota (D) also resigned after allegations arose that he made unwanted sexual advances toward an intern.

The accusations against LeVota also prompted past interns to come forward with stories of being harassed by the lawmaker. The culture in Jefferson City even led to a number of universities questioning their intern program.

State Rep. Kevin Engler (R) was asked to come up with a new policy for interns, and his colleague Bill Kidd (R) suggested a dress code.

“We need a good, modest, conservative dress code for both the males and females,” state Rep. Nick King (R) wrote in an email to colleagues in support of Kidd. He added, “removing one more distraction will help everyone keep their focus on legislative matters.”

Actual details of the proposed dress code were never revealed, as the idea was pulled from the list of possible changes to the intern program. Many panned the very idea of the dress code, including U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.), who called it a form of victim blaming.

In a blog post introducing the shirt, Raygun, which bills itself as the “greatest store in the universe,” said that the shirt is the perfect solution to help clear up any confusion about the decorum of women in government.  

“If ladies working in government don't want sexual attention from elected officials, they need to really spell it out,” the company wrote.

Mike Draper, 33, started the company -- whose first store location was in Des Moines, Iowa -- after selling “Jon Stewart for President” T-shirts on the streets of New York. Draper told The Huffington Post the company has released other political shirts:

After news of Diehl’s resignation, the company first responded in a cheeky blog post about the bipartisan misconduct in the state legislature. The shirt came to life after printer Dylan Boyle saw the news about the dress code and suggested something very similar to the language used in the final version of the shirt.

Suzanne Corum-Rich, one of the managers of Raygun's Kansas City store, says the company is also looking into doing a general “not wanting sexual attention” shirt for everyday use.

Although Raygun has yet to hear from the lawmakers who proposed the intern dress code, they did get a response from another member of the assembly:

Draper said a number of current and former congressional staffers have contacted them about the shirt.

“One person said she was a former staff for LeVota and said that [Jefferson] City ‘was creepy as hell,’” said Draper.

Corum-Rich said the shirt resonates "with a lot of people, but especially women."

“The fact that not only our schools but also our state legislature is forcing women to cover themselves up instead of penalizing the men for being walking boners is speaking volumes to how huge of an issue inequality still is," Corum-Rich said.

She also spoke about another possible product idea for Raygun.

“Perhaps instead of implementing a dress code for women, they should make it mandatory for the men to wear a chastity belt to work. Maybe that’s what product we should make next,” she joked.

Queen Elizabeth II, the soon-to-be longest reigning monarch in British history, is also one of the most fashionable. That is, of course, thanks in part to her vast hat collection.

Visual Meta, a company that runs online shopping portals in Europe, Asia and South America, has further fueled our infatuation with the queen's style with its new infographic, "63 Years In 63 Hats." The interactive tool serves as a timeline of important events in the queen's reign thus far, dating back to the Commonwealth Tour of 1953 through the birth of granddaughter Princess Charlotte in 2015. Click on any given hat and the graphic gives you a glimpse back in time at her majesty wearing it, making the super stylish history lesson just plain fun to play with.

Arthur Krux, who created the graphic, explained to The Huffington Post why he chose to focus on her hats: "It is the queen's biggest fashion statement. We wanted to choose one hat for each year, so we did our research focusing on what the queen did or important dates for her kingdom in every year," he said. 

Take a look at the iconic hats below.

June 17, 8:16 AM: I woke up and was a literal bronze goddess. I put so much lotion on because that's what they told me to do at the store, but I still feel like I could do more.

9:48 AM: I am sitting at work right now and pretending to do research, but in reality I'm actually researching spray tan horror stories. Oye.

10:27 AM: I have taken so many selfies this morning because my collarbones look so nice with the spray tan in them.

11: 49 AM: Okay, so my legs do look great, but they also are starting to look a touch orange. Maybe it's just how all tan legs look, or maybe I think they look orange because I look like a pair of khaki pants all summer and I'm not used to looking like this. They're super lubed up right now with both lotion and the condoms that I had to unwrap for work (don't ask).

11:52 AM: Do other people think my legs look orange? I asked another girl working with me and we all admired my bronze appendages. I both feel like I have to keep it a secret that I got a spray tan, but also I want to tell everybody just in case it looks ridiculous that I did it to write about it.

11:56 AM: I'm considering why I feel weird guilt about getting a spray tan. It seems ridiculous because it makes me feel good in my own skin, so why is that something to resent? I could see myself getting another one, and I don't think that requires validation.

11:58 AM: Holy shit, there's an orange splotch on my knuckles. What do I do?

11:59 AM: I just googled it, and it said to just scrub it off with a rag or exfoliate with a Q-tip. Stand-by for results.

12:02 PM: We're good! My tan goes back to looking banging. There's tan getting in the wrinkles on the back of my ankles, but I decide to leave them to avoid further scrubbing. My tan technician told me to avoid exfoliation unless I want my tan to fully come off.

12:10 PM: The palms of my hand are so tan, oh no. Whatever. Nobody looks at your palms, right?

12:11 PM: I take that shit back. Somebody just asked if I got mud on my hands.

"Beauty Glossary" is a HuffPost series that breaks down beauty product techniques, treatments and ingredients so you know exactly what you're putting onto and into your body.  

When we think of marshmallows, we think of all the yummy ways to eat and drink the sugary, spongy candy. S'mores. Root Beer Floats. Cupcakes. You get the picture. But it did not occur to us until we read the ingredients label on a few beauty products that there's a different kind of marshmallow in the world.

In fact, marshmallow, otherwise known as Althaea, is a plant. "It has a flower, leaves and a root, and is found in stores usually as a tincture, extract, capsules or tea leaves. It is sometimes added to skin and haircare products," said board-certified dermatologist Rebecca Baxt. 

Althaea has a long and documented tradition of use as both food and medicine dating back to ancient Egypt, according to Richard Mandelbaum, an herbalist registered with the American Herbalists Guild. It was turned into a candy confection and a sore throat remedy, among other uses.

"It has vulnerary (healing), demulcent (moisturizing) and soothing properties that make it highly effective for revitalizing both skin and hair," he told HuffPost.

There's a significant difference between extract from the plant and its root. Carl Thornfeldt, a clinical dermatologist and the creator of Epionce skincare, said the root is high in mucilages, which are used to coat and prevent irritation (think pectin from apples). The extract comes from the flowers of the plant, and while it has some mild anti-inflammatory effect, it doesn't have the skin protectant properties that the root does.

Marshmallow root also has low concentrations of ceramide precursors, a natural hydrator Thornfeldt said helps with repairing the skin barrier. For hair, mucilage binds to the proteins to make strands look thicker. Baxt added that the slippery substance can also be used as hair detangler and conditioner. 

Because of marshmallow root's cooling and moisturizing properties, Mandelbaum said herbalists like himself believe it's most appropriate for use by people who have dry, brittle or damaged hair. People with skin conditions that are irritated, red and/or inflamed might find it useful, too. 

Since marshmallow root is similar to a plant-derived form of glycerin, an emollient that softens skin and moisturizes hair, Thornfeldt believes it's safe to incorporate into beauty routines. However, Baxt recommends seeking the advice of your doctor before making any drastic changes to regularly prescribed treatments.

Soon you could be watching the hijinks of Amber Rose and Blac Chyna on an MTV reality show, if TMZ's sources are to be believed. 

According to the website, a deal is close to being done, though MTV told The Huffington Post they had "no comment" when asked if the reports were true. But if the fact Rose was hanging around the MTV/Viacom building in Los Angeles on Tuesday is any indication, we'd say odds that a reality show is the works are pretty good. 

Sources close to the show's production told TMZ the series would focus on both women's lives as single mothers balancing work and taking care of their kids. 

Still, this isn't the first time we've heard reports that that Rose could be getting her own reality show. Back in March, a source told OK! Magazine that the model had been "inundated with offers from TV networks and publishers around the world, desperate to hear the dirt she has on Kanye [West] and why she’s on such a mission to destroy Kim [Kardashian].”

While Rose and Chyna both have ongoing feuds with Kardashian-Jenner members, whatever dirt they have on the reality TV family would pale in comparison to the real reason we'd tune in to their show, a chance to see more of Rose's adorable son, Sebastian.

Kate Moss, we hardly recognized you!

A childhood photo of the supermodel graces the cover of L'Officiel Spain's debut issue, and we are loving every bit of the young one's full fringe, soft waves and earnest grin. The issue featuring the delightfully retro photo, which is apparently from a yearbook, will hit newsstands on Tuesday, September 1.

It's an interesting look for the fashion mag, to say the least! 

Though Kate has scored many a magazine cover, the supermodel recently told The Mirror there's one thing she just won't do anymore -- pose nude. 

“I don’t think my daughter wants to see me on the toilet. Lila has seen me nude," Moss said in an interview with The Mirror. One thing's for sure -- whatever she does (or doesn't wear), Moss always looks gorgeous.

An Oklahoma teacher hopes her new Harry Potter-themed classroom will inspire her students to immerse themselves in reading.

Stephanie Stephens teaches elective math and reading classes for sixth through eighth graders at James L. Capps Middle School in Oklahoma City. "One of the toughest things as a reading teacher is instilling a love of reading in students that do not like reading," she told The Huffington Post.

While working at a camp over the summer, Stephens came up with the idea to decorate her school classroom with Harry Potter-themed details after her enthusiasm for the series prompted a few other adults to read the books. "It got me thinking that if I can get adults to be excited about reading using Harry Potter, I can get my students excited about reading as well!" she recalled.

The teacher spent a week planning and ordering decorations related to the series' first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. "I thought of all the magical things Harry saw and experienced and put myself in his shoes and picked the things that I could pull off in a classroom," she said. Stephens ordered signs from Etsy, stuffed animals and fabrics from a variety of websites and used a free font download to put together more quotes and classroom labels.

She also persuaded her artist sister to paint her "Mrs. Stephens' Room" board. Once she had all the items and fabrics, it took the teacher "four days or so" to pull it all together, she said. Eventually, she plans to add a broom and Mirror of Erised to the classroom.

In total, Stephens paid between $400 and $500 dollars of her own money for all the classroom decor. "I chose to go with the Harry Potter theme because if I am excited and enthusiastic, students tend to follow suit," she told HuffPost. "My goal is to help students find at least one book or genre that they can find exciting and be as enthusiastic about as I am regarding Harry Potter."

When the first day of school arrived on August 20th, some students were confused because they were unfamiliar with Harry Potter. But, Stephens added, "Most were excited and were immediately drawn into the class and the fun activities that are planned for the year!"

"Their favorite part of the entire classroom are the potions," she continued. "They love playing with them while waiting for class to start."

Stephens husband shared photos of his wife's Potterific classroom on Reddit, where they've been viewed over 22,000 times. The teacher wants people who see the photos of her classroom to feel inspired to read or do something creative.

"My hope is to bring magic back into people's hearts," she said. "The Harry Potter generation is growing up, and sometimes, returning to our younger selves can inspire us to pick up a book or share a piece of our past with others around us."

Taylor Swift has brought some unexpected guests on stage during the course of her "1989" tour, but bringing former "Friends" star Lisa Kudrow up to sing "Smelly Cat," well, that's just genius.

For her fifth show at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Swift and Kudrow sang a simple, but beloved song of a smelly cat, and it was glorious:

Here's the original: 

For her final LA show, Swift didn't skimp on the special guests. In addition to Kudrow, the pop star also brought out her BFF Selena Gomez to sing "Good For You," and Justin Timberlake to sing "Mirrors."
