Many people have their own styling way and some of them make themselves up like a movie star. Also, no matter how old or young, most people care about what they look like and so the popularity of TV channel and magazines related to beauty or fashion is very high these days.
I firmly belive that what one look like at the first meeting gives one's overall information to others. First, people who have different lifestyle and mind can express themselves by clothing, doing make-up, wearing accesories and so on. So, we could expect the person's personality and taste. Especially, young people who have strong desire to express themselves and tend to follow the fashion trend often consider their styling very important. For example, if I like to listen to rap music, I would wear hood T-shirt and baggie pants and maybe I could imitate the style of my favorite musician. Then people may get to know the taste of music and what I want to look like.
Secondly, first impression often shows invisible things. This is important part which business managers or all the salesperson have to care about. Suppose that I'm an interview of a company and I have to make a decison among simmilar people. Then, I would probably look closely their gestures, intonation and etiquette not only clothing and appearance. Likewise, people always care about the first impression of the people even when someone choose a grocery store.
To sum up, I believe that the first impression shows much information about the person including visible and invisible elements. |
