Curly hair : a short cut; or let it loose with a little product and a severe side-part to create volume on top; or gather a small section at the top of your hairline and pull back, leaving the sides and back down; or grab small sections of your hair and pin them up in the back.
Part 3. Get a few key statement pieces. You want to get a few items that are individual and that you can build an outfit around. This is important for both men and women, because it helps draw out your individuality which in turn demonstrates your confidence in yourself. Jewelry, clothing, shoes can all be important pieces. For example, you might favor chunky, bulky jewelry so you tend to wear more neutral clothes to show it off, or you might favor waistcoats in fun colors and so you build your wardrobe around that.
Bags are also a great statement piece. You can easily switch them up, depending on the outfit you want to wear. They can be subtle, or exciting and they're also useful. Shop for clothes in unusual places. Part of attracting people to you is being noticeable. You want to stand out from the crowd. To do this you should look for clothing that is unique, that other people don't have.
Consignment shops are fantastic places to get fun and cool clothing for cheaper. You can get designer clothes for less if you go to consignment shops located in the high-class part of town. Antique stores and vintage shops are great places to locate vintage clothing which happens to be very in right now. A lot of older clothes are very durable, so they tend to have a longer life-span than current clothes.
Artist bazaars often have clothes and accessories that are one-of-a-kind. By supporting your local artists you're making the statement that you are involved in your community, and you have unusual and interesting accessories and clothes. You can also find interesting and unusual clothes online from websites like Etsy and eBay. Make sure you're clear on what your clothing size is so that you don't get the wrong size. Put together flattering outfits. You want to wear clothing that you feel comfortable, confident, and attractive in.
This means that you'll have to do some experimenting to figure out what works best for you. You can rotate through these, changing them up a little, and adding accessories and such to them. For example: you might favor jeans and a t-shirt as your "uniform. Using neutral bases to ground the more exciting and out-there pieces.
Neutral bases are clothes that come in black, or grey, or natural colors like brown or cream. These help balance and ground your brighter and more colorful clothes.
Wear red. For both genders, red attracts. It signifies power and confidence. So wear that red dress, or red lipstick, that red scarf, or shirt and see who it attracts to you. Make sure your clothes fit.
One of the keys to looking good is having clothing that fits you properly. Too tight and you'll look uncomfortable, too loose and you'll look sloppy. Even your jeans should fit you properly.
They should conform to your body without squeezing too tightly, or sagging below your waist. If they're too long, make sure to hem them so that they don't drag on the ground. If you're female, make sure that your bras are fitting you properly. You want support without feeling squeezed and without having the straps leave lines on your skin.
Wear the right shoes. People of both genders notice footwear, even if they don't realize they do. Wearing the right shoes can definitely attract people to you, especially if your footwear complements your outfit.
For women, flats are wonderfully versatile. They can dress up or dress down depending on what you need. They can be as attractive as high heels without the pain of walking in them. Boots can class up an outfit and they can be perfect for autumn or winter. High heels can also class up an outfit, but you need to practice walking in them.
There's nothing attractive about somebody tottering down the street. For guys you want to make sure that your shoes fit you properly and go with your outfit no brown with black, please. If you're going on a date, make sure that your shoes look good. Part 4. Use make-up to enhance your overall appearance.
Make-up can be a lot of fun and it can be an added benefit to your already lovely face. Using make-up correctly you can attract all kinds of people. Experiment to figure out what works for you. If you're having a bad skin day, you can use make-up to cover up the blemishes. Make sure that the cover-up matches your skin tone, otherwise it will simply draw attention to what you're trying to hide! Help contour your face how you want it. You can use bronzer to bring out your cheekbones and blush to contour your face and add length or width, depending on what you want.
Apply your blush in a horizontal line to widen or across temples and jaw to lengthen it. Enhance your eyes. Eyes are the "window to the soul," right? Enhancing your eyes is a great way to draw people in.
You can do a simple "natural" look, or try out the smokey eye which is always in fashion and great paired with red lipstick. For the smokey eye look, sweep nude eyeshadow over your entire eyelid. Apply a shimmering eyeshadow from base to brow of eyelid whatever color you'd like.
Like your top and bottom lash lines with dark eyeliner, in a brown or black shade. Use a Q-tip to smudge the liner. Sweep a darker eyeshadow over your eyelid and into the crease. Blend that color upward and outward. Place the highlighting tone a lighter color under your brow bone and in tear duct. Line your inner lash line with eyeliner to intensify the effect. Now use two or three coats of mascara on your lashes and curl them upward.
For the natural look add a little definition to your eyes with eyeliner, in a subtle and natural shade like brown. Brush on a little light colored eyeshadow, such as champagne or light brown. Open up your lashes with a little mascara a coat or two. Test out different mascaras until you find one that doesn't make your lashes all clumpy and goopy. Get creative with make-up.
Make-up should be a fun accessory, so get a little creative with it. Show your wild side. Cool, interesting make-up can attract people just as much as subtle, almost un-seeable make-up.
Go crazy with fun colors! Use bright colors to enhance your eye color and make it pop. While this should be done subtly—after all, no one likes actively being overtly mimicked—doing so "shows them that you're paying attention" as well as validating them, making you seem more attractive in return.
Don't be afraid, says Darlene Corbett, a licensed therapist and author of Stop Depriving The World Of You , to wear clothing that "accentuate[s] your bodily attributes.
If you've got it, after all, you might as well flaunt it. While stubble is proven to be the most widely attractive form of facial hair, there's a niche for other designs, as well.
Specifically, says Kenger, if you're looking for something "long-term," go with the short beard. As a result, he says, "you'll be perceived as more trustworthy. Similarly, while glasses were shown to decrease attractive in most wearers, they had their upsides too—specifically those of the rimless variety.
Particularly, says Kenger, they made wearers appear "more intelligent and trustworthy. While there are endless varieties of popular new haircuts being trotted out each day, more important than anything is getting a cut which fits your face. Just because everyone else has a pompadour doesn't mean you should, too, and many of those wearing that trendy style would probably be better with a different cut, as well.
You wouldn't wear the same shoes as your neighbor, after all, so why have the same haircut? You don't need to spend "tons of time and money," says Dr.
Christine Carpenter, a psychologist and dating coach at Evolve Dating Consultation , but it's important to pay at least some attention to your grooming and style of dress. At the very least, she says, "look like you put in some effort. Ever found yourself on camera or film and wondered: "What do I do with my hands? In order to appear "strong," says Dr. Carpenter, and attract the gaze of a possible mate, it's important to have you hands at the ready and "available for action.
Attractiveness, says Corbett, "start[s] with how you project yourself. As long as you don't take the opportunity to literally look down your nose at others, she says, the position "exudes a sense of confidence," and "not arrogance. Sometimes the best way to attract others is to simply let your guard down.
While violating too many of the rules of attraction will likely end up poorly, ignoring a few here and there in an effort to appear more real can help endear you to others who themselves are likely just as confused as you are. Clothes don't make the man, but they can help undo him. While it's not crucial, as Dr. Carpenter says, to remain "on the cutting edge of the latest trends," that doesn't mean it's okay to non-ironically dress like a character in an '80s movie just because you don't want to go shopping.
Carpenter says, to avoid "com[ing] across as lazy and sloppy," and a little effort goes a long way. While your strengths are what initially draw the gaze of others, it's your weaknesses that endear them for the long-term.
To really up your attractiveness, then, it can be helpful to take yourself a bit less seriously, and be able to enjoy a joke or two at your own expense—and maybe even by your own hand. In the same way that bright clothing draws attention to a prospective mate, so does color on the face. To increase attraction, then, try some bright blush or a colored lipstick—anything that really makes your face pop as compared to plain ole skin. While your own accomplishments and goals are sure to help gain the approval and respect of others, it can be even more appealing to appear interested in learning about the accomplishments and goals of your prospective partner.
Instead of trying to woo solely by your own merit, try asking questions and learning about what makes them tick. After all, there's nothing quite as endearing as someone being interested in you. In addition, he says, while it isn't a pageant, it can't hurt to "show off some of your talents.
While this isn't something that can be done overnight, performing some of the associated behaviors—making "solid eye contact," engaging in "more free body language," and generally being "less guarded"—is a good start.
Come with a few memorized jokes in hand and try working them into conversation—nobody has to know exactly where you got your sense of humor from. Contours, highlights, thicker-than-thick eyebrows: there's no shortage of makeup trends to go around. However, just like a haircut, there's usually a makeup regimen which makes sense for each individual, rather than just the blanket "look" that graces most social media feeds.
So, before deciding on what products to use, and how to use them, get to know your own face in all its pre-made-up glory. Though a stern countenance can appear mysterious, it can also ward off the very types of interactions its appeal hopes to lure. To instead appear more "approachable," says Dr. Carpenter—and the kind of person that someone can just walk up and talk to—try "relax[ing] your facial muscles.
Just because an outfit or a piece of clothing is fabulous doesn't mean it has to be fabulous on you. We all have affinities for certain parts of our bodies—and less so for others—and the garments we put on them should reflect that fact. To boost your attractiveness, then, you may just need to find a more like-minded pool of applicants. However when we put this theory to the test we had mixed results.
Swaying your hips or adopting a swagger when you walk can make women and men more attractive respectively, according to research. In fact, you could double your allure simply by walking in a different way. In fact, a study found that doing so makes someone seem more approachable and likeable, and thus more attractive.
Whether in a picture on your dating app profile or just the way you look across the bar, adopting an expansive posture can make someone seem more attractive, a study found. This means having your arms and legs facing outwards rather than crossing or folding them - the idea is that expansive postures signal openness and dominance, which are often seen as attractive.
