New year, new you? It’s a cliche for sure, but sometimes a little makeover can really help you get through the January blues!
There are many different reasons why you might want to freshen up your look this new year want to. Some people want to do it to make others think that they are attractive and beautiful, whereas others do it to feel confident and it’s about them, not about others. If you want to transition your current looks, then you’re in the right place.
We’re going to say, however, that there really is nothing wrong with what you look like right now. Yes, even with your hair in a messy bun and food on your t shirt (the one that’s faded from the wash). You are a glorious person, and you deserve to feel confident in your own skin. That doesn’t mean that you won’t want to make a change from time to time! You are allowed to love who you are but want to become the HDTV version of yourself. From composite bonding on your teeth to wearing lenses over glasses, you can make the smallest upgrades to feel good about yourself. It doesn’t matter your reasons, you deserve to feel good and upgrading your appearance can ensure that you do. You will be a happier individual if you are feeling comfortable in how you look and we’ve got five great ways that you can upgrade your appearance for the better.
1. Change your hair.
You might have heard that you should never make drastic changes to your hair on a whim. The thing is, one of the simplest ways to freshen up your look is to change your hairstyle. You can go shorter, you can add more extensions and go longer. You can add colour or you can strip it out. Either way, a good hairstyle will give you the confidence that you need to succeed!
2. Work on your smile.
We mentioned composite bonding from the dentist, but there are so many ways that you can work on your smile. You can sit in front of a mirror and practice smiling, and you can get your dentist to talk you through fixing chipped, cracked or damaged teeth and what it will take. More and more people are going through cosmetic procedures to feel better about their smiles and you can, too!
3. Upgrade your style.
Get yourself to a style consultant and learn what colours and shapes of clothing that you’re missing out on through sheer fear. If you’ve spent a long time living your life in a way that means that you have been stuck in the same fashion cycle, it’s time to break out of it.
4. Experiment with makeup.
When was the last time you bought a new lipstick in a new colour? There are so many people out there that use makeup to transform their appearance. You don’t have to morph into someone else, but makeup can enhance your favorite features.
5. Surgery.
It might seem extreme but honestly, if there’s something that really makes you unhappy about your body and you’ve done the good mental work to make sure there’s no other option, sometimes a bigger change is the only way to do it. If you want a drastic change to your body, your face or your teeth, cosmetic surgery may be the answer to help you feel good about yourself. Always be certain before you make permanent changes to your appearance!
