There's a few obvious ones but my best life hack, as a dude, is regarding shaving razors and cream. Those Gillette things in the UK are damn expensive. They got like 4 razors, super fancy. And the cream too. You don't need it. I bought a massive bag of the classic razors off of Ebay and moved to the classic shaving soap. Lasts me months.
I've been using the same set of cheap hair clippers on head and beard for almost 10 years.
No razors, no paying for haircuts, no shaving cream, no cuts, no razor burn.
I moved to using a safety razor and it works great. You can get blades for super cheap.
Also, I don't need shaving cream, just hot water in my shower. That doesn't always apply to everyone though. Some people's skin/hair are different, and they need different things to shave.
