First impressions are important ...

Did you know that the people that you meet are creating observations and making judgments about you and your character from the first moment they lay eyes on you? They are checking out your dress, your jewelry, your facial expression, your hair, hands, body language, and your overall demeanor. Studies have shown that within the first 10 seconds a person has already formulated 11 or more judgments about you. This is something to consider as you analyze what type of image you wish to project each day.

Your 'image' is one of the most important assets you own. At the very onset of meeting someone, your image is being observed and evaluated. It is very easy to detect high or low self-esteem in a person. If you present yourself with confidence and poise, you will have a much better chance of achieving success in life. Being unsure of yourself or of your appearance can be very harmful to your image.

What should I think about? ...

Your personal appearance is made up of many things:  make-up, hair, hands, overall fitness, how you hold yourself while walking, how you shake someone’s hand, whether you have a tattoo, pierced ears, a consistent wardrobe style and what accessories you wear.  Your personal appearance is the finished product of how you look when you walk out the door - to a job interview, social function, business luncheon, a golf outing or a weekend get-away. 

Many ideas in the world dictate how one should look.  Some trends are good ones, here to stay. Others will be popular now but in a year or two may cause you to regret some of the choices you made. Think very carefully before you get a permanent tattoo, or five piercings in your left ear and three on your right, a pierced nose or eyebrow. These are all decisions that could harm you when people form their first impression of you. Some day when you are in the business field, you may regret having made these irreversible decisions.  

Going for an interview? ...

Express yourself, but ...

If you have a wild streak, and like to express yourself in dress, that is fine. However, there is a place and time for this type of expression.  Consider what image you wish to project as you take care of yourself.

Physical exercise, walking with confidence, feeling a sense of ‘looking good’ are all important components to one’s self esteem and acceptance.  You will have a more positive outlook knowing your outfit looks totally put together from shoes to the finishing touches of accessories.  Educate  yourself, develop your personal dress style and stay consistent throughout your appearance.  These are all things that Image Educators can help you with.
