Excellent news for these of us with lingerie drawers filled with push-up bras! It’s not your chest he is taking a look at as an alternative of your face, it is your hair!
A 2011 Pantene survey discovered what guys discover first a couple of lady’s look. And what males need is silky, wholesome hair. Listed below are a few of these arduous numbers.
What males discover first about you — earlier than the rest:
- 74 % of males indicated that they discover ladies due to their hair.
- 44 % of males surveyed stated that hair is the very first thing they discover a couple of lady, greater than her garments (26 %), legs (25 %), or make-up (4 %), and most males surveyed could be extra prone to strategy a girl at a bar with nice hair than a girl sporting a low-cut shirt.
- 82 % of males indicated that nice hair is a key component to a girl’s general enchantment.
- 60 % of males surveyed say they’d reasonably date a girl with nice hair than a girl with large breasts.
- 78 % of males surveyed contemplate wholesome hair to be a turn-on.
However wait… I assumed we had been taught that we will have all of it!
Led by Pantene, the survey is hardly neutral, however do males care about hair this a lot? In accordance with Steve Ward (of VH1 Robust Love fame) sure! “Anybody can put on a low-cut shirt, however not everybody can have nice hair,” he says. Anybody! Steve can put on a low-cut shirt, I wager.
Your hair additionally talks to Steve and all males.
“Hair that’s wholesome and well-kept instantly alerts to a person that you’re accountable, stylish, attentive, and take satisfaction in your look and these are all traits that males search for in ladies,” Steve says.
Accountable! Perhaps your hair ought to have a resume. Moreover, if good hair tells males that you’re accountable and fashionable, what does unhealthy hair inform them? (Generally mine says, “I used to be consuming Doritos earlier and bought some crumbs in my hair.”)
Whereas I do take satisfaction in my lengthy and splendid locks, it isn’t one thing I take nice care of to ensure it appears shiny and frizz-free anyplace I am going. The lads are simply going to have to search out one thing else to note about me.
Girls, what do you suppose? Does your man choose your locks to every little thing else about you — possibly together with your persona? — or does this examine simplify their whims and preferences?
