Personalizing Your Look and Style

We all want our look and style to reflect us as people and to help us stand out from the crowd. Of course, there are countless approaches that you can take to achieve this, and many different areas to focus on. Here are just a few that you might want to take into consideration and work on.

Hair
Your hair style can be a great way to express your interests and personality. Think about it – if a guy has a bright mohawk, chances are, he’s into some pretty alternative stuff. If you see someone with a 60s style bob, they might be into sixties music, fashion and culture. You don’t necessarily have to have something wild done with your hair, but you can choose cuts and colors that you feel complement you and express yourself as an individual. Look for inspiration in hair magazines, Pinterest boards, Instagram posts and more. When you’ve chosen the look you want, head to a quality hairdresser with an impressive portfolio and plenty of experience. It’s often good to take sample images along so they can get a good visual idea of what you want.

Jewelry
When’s the last time you really accessorized one of your outfits? Jewelry is a great way to add a subtle touch to your ensemble, or can even serve as a great statement piece. There are, as you can imagine, endless types and styles of jewelry that might appeal to you. From watches to an Initial Chain, earrings, bracelets, charm bracelets, anklets, necklaces, rings and so much more. Silver, gold, jewels, plain… only you can know what will best suit your overall look. One thing worth noting is that it’s good to save and buy quality when it comes to jewelry. Low quality products can stain your skin or cause reactions.

Piercings
Piercings aren’t for everyone. But they are a simple way to stand out from the crowd and to add your own distinct look to your overall appearance. There are countless different piercings to choose from, ranging from more common piercings such as your ear lobes to less common piercings, such as septum piercings, lip piercings or even piercings on your lower neck, close to your back. If you do decide to get a piercing, it’s absolutely essential that you do your research, are sure of your decision and visit a piercing specialist who is fully qualified and has plenty of good reviews. You should also make sure to care for your piercing properly following having it done. This will prevent issues such as rejection or infection.

Clothes
Nowadays, many of us are into fast fashion and companies are pumping out countless versions of clothes. If you buy an item from a fast fashion store, chances are, someone you know also has the exact same outfit. Instead, help yourself and the environment by choosing options from boutiques, vintage store, charity stores and more. This will help to give you a more stand out look.

Hopefully, some of these top tips will make a huge difference when it comes to creating a personal look that suits you and your personality!
