Within three seconds of meeting you, people form a first impression about the type of person you are, and it's not your face that gives you away -- it's your hairstyle! A recent study validates that your hairstyle dictates the first impression you make, significantly overpowering the impact of facial features.
We all know how important it is to make a good first impression, whether you're looking for a new job, getting ready for a first date, or meeting the potential in-laws. Your choice of hairstyle might project an image of intelligence and self-assurance, or one of insecurity and conceit, so make your style work for you. If celebrities can change their hairstyles to play a part or make a statement, why can't you?
Dr. Marianne LaFrance, director of the study First Impressions and Hair Impressions and Professor of Psychology and Professor of Women's and Gender Studies at Yale University, asserts that until now there has been no investigation of the unique effect hairstyle has on first impressions. "We wanted to learn whether the frame around the face -- the hairstyle -- can significantly alter how a person is seen," says Dr. LaFrance. "We found that different hairstyles quickly lead others to 'see' different kinds of people." First Impressions and Hair Impressions was commissioned by the team for Physique(R), a styling-based haircare line.
