Shopping for your dad can either be really easy... or really hard. If you ask what he wants for Father's Day, he'll probably tell you he doesn't want anything or that he already has everything he needs. We say take a note out of your Mother's Day gift-giving book and trade the default dad present (a Home Depot gift card) for a little self-care.
Since you probably can't convince your dad to spend an entire Sunday in a spa, the next-best present would be to upgrade his grooming routine. Considering how many foolproof options exist, this is going to be easier than you think. Whether your dad maintains his beard better than Jon Snow or doesn't know the difference between shampoo and body wash, there's a grooming gift for him.
Ahead, 9 grooming gift sets to get your dad for Father's Day.
