hey girls!
share your ideas: should men also visit a hair dresser and parlor before attending their wedding as we women do?

Absolutely! I think a little peacock-y preening is in order for the groom to impress his penhen...his mate. Too many men get away with being slobs while women are forced to doll it up with dieting and make-up.

Besides, a trip to a traditional barbershop can be a male bonding experience.

From a male perspective: absolutely! And not just to the hair dresser and parlor, also to a cosmetologist, to his perfumer, to his personal tailor- especially if he wears some high-end brand of custom-made suits, and in many more such grooming-related places, and not just before the wedding, but also before going out, major social, romantic or formal calls, parties, gala performances or, just for the pleasure of looking great on any occasion

Why not? At least it beats looking all hung over after a stag party...!

But if the guy is having some facials, do remind him to allow a few days for his skin to recover... I realize many guys, and even some girls, do not know this...

I say no at the risk of a bad haircut or red skin. Get a haircut about 2 weeks in advance. I wouldn't get my eyebrows waxed the day of either.
