Are you bored with your old-fashioned look, and want to get a more exotic look? Try changing your hair, make-up, and dressing style. These changes can be an interesting way to get a new look that hasn't been your style for a long time. Open yourself up to possibilities and start experimenting with new looks!
Step
Part 1 of 3: Changing Hair Appearance
Step 1. Change the texture of your hair
If you have naturally straight hair, change the look of your hair by making it wavy or curly. On the other hand, if you have naturally curly or wavy hair, change your look by straightening your hair. As easy as it sounds, small changes like these can completely change your appearance. Below are some popular hairstyles that you can try:
- Long wavy beach hair.
- Straight long hair
- Bouncy curls (also known as hanging curls)
Step 2. Have a bold short haircut
If you've been known to have long, wavy hair that's slightly tousled, maybe it's time to try something different. Try to have a short but stylish haircut that can make you stand out and be more stunning than your friends' looks. Your courage to cut your hair short can give your personality a little bit of mystery. Below are some short hairstyles that you can try:
- Short pixie cut (article in English)
- Rocker faux hawk cut (article in English)
- Bob cut (article in English)
Step 3. Color your hair, either a lighter or darker color
If you have dark hair, try changing your hair color to blonde for an exotic look. On the other hand, if your hair color is blonde, try changing your hair color to dark brown or even black. Changing your hair color is one of the best ways to add an exotic touch to your look. Regardless of your original hair color, a different hair color can make changes to your appearance quickly.
- You can also dye your hair in bold colors. Colors like midnight black or light blonde always have a touch of exoticism, but what about red with purple accents or golden brown (strawberry blonde) with a touch of pink on the ends of the hair? Try to find out for yourself.
- As an alternative, you can try an ombre hair color look, with color gradations from dark to light, or vice versa.
Step 4. Try using hair extensions or hair extensions
Connecting hair can be a great option to change your look in an instant. With super long hair, you can have endless options for your new look. Plus, you can choose extensions in a color you don't normally use, or try extensions with an ombre look. You can also try experimenting with temporary extensions (hair extensions with removable clips), until you find a new style that you like.
- Hair extension treatment is quite difficult to do. Therefore, it's a good idea to consider first what kind of treatment you can do before you spend money to do a hair extension.
- Extensions can also damage your hair if they are not installed properly. Therefore, make sure you use the services of an experienced hairdresser to do the hair extension.
Step 5. Beautify your hair with accessories
Make your hair look different from anyone else's by using accessories such as hair wrap (a kind of colorful embroidery thread wrapped around the hair), feathers, beads, and other knick-knacks. For a simpler choice of accessories, attach pretty clips to your hair.
Part 2 of 3: Makeup Changes Makeup
Step 1. Try the winged eyelining technique
Regardless of the shape of your eyes, an eye line with a winged tip can quickly add charm and a touch of mystery to your face. Eye lines like that can make your eyes look bigger and more attractive, and of course your appearance can make you more stylish when having fun with friends. It can be difficult to line your eyes like this, especially if your hands can't stay still while you're applying the eyeliner. So, try the following ways to apply a blemish without ruining your makeup:
- Prepare a bottle or a tube of black eyeshadow. For better results, use a liquid eyeliner (not a pencil liner).
- Cut a small piece of adhesive tape and apply it just below your lower eye line so that it forms an angle that leads to your brow. The sharper the angle made, the sharper the "wings" that will be formed.
- Apply the shadow to your upper eye line, starting from the inner corner of your eye. Dab along the upper eye line, then make a tapered line at the outer corner of your eye (the making of this pointed line is assisted by the presence of adhesive tape). Remove the adhesive tape when you are done.
- Do the same on the other eye and remove any blemishes.
Step 2. Try using eye shadow with bright colors
Get rid of the eye shadow with a neutral color palette and try eye shadow with more exotic colors. Experiment with bright colors like turquoise, turquoise, magenta and other striking colors to add an eye-catching touch to your look.
- For a truly exotic look, apply color gradations. Use a light color on the inner corner of your eyelid, a darker color on the center, and a dark color on the outer corner of your eyelid. You can create color gradations like yellow-green-blue, or pink-purple-dark purple.
- For a more stylish look, dab some glitter powder or stick rhinestone beads on your lids.
Step 3. Try smokey eyes makeup
The use of eye shadow and mascara alone does not change the shape of your eyes, although it can change the appearance of your eyes. One powerful way to make your eyes look exotic is to apply smokey colors like gray, silver, or black. With eye makeup like this, you are ready to look stunning when you go for a walk at night.
You can create smokey eyes by using just a few colors. Use dark colors on the outer corner of your eye to the crease of the eyelid, and emphasize the inner corner of your eyelid with a few strokes of white. Dab a tan and mascara in a black that stands out and you're now ready to look stunning
Step 4. Make your cheekbones look high and emphasize the natural shape of your lips
If you don't want to change your eye makeup too much, you can still change your appearance by highlighting the beauty of your cheekbones and lips. Learn how to apply contouring makeup and your look will change.
- To make the cheekbones appear taller, use the right shade of blush and bronzer and contour over the top of the cheeks.
- To emphasize the shape of the lips, use a lip liner with a neutral color and make a slightly longer lip line just below your lips. Sleep with neutral colored lipstick and lip gloss.
Step 5. Get a manicure or nail treatment
Paint your fingernails in unique colors to add extra charm to your look. Colors like gold, copper, or other soft metallic colors can add an exotic touch. Coral colors can make your skin look tan or olive, while dark silver or black can make your skin appear whiter and brighter.
Part 3 of 3: Changing Your Dress and Behavior
Step 1. Wear clothes in flashy, bright, and festive colors
Adjustments to your clothing can have a dramatic effect on your appearance, encouraging you to like how you look and changing your perception of yourself. Often to create an exotic look, all you need to do is change your dress style. Get rid of your jeans and t-shirts, then fill your wardrobe with clothes that are unique and have lively patterns and bright colors.
In general, skirts and dresses provide more options for your appearance than pants and shirts. As people say, anything that isn't trending can actually be something exotic. For example, vintage 30s flapper dresses and fighter pilot leather jackets have their own exotic side. As long as the clothes you wear are unique, you can achieve an exotic look
Step 2. Mix and match your outfit with festive and flashy accessories
Breaking out of your old habits of choosing your jewelry, hair accessories, and even handbags can change your appearance significantly. Think about really eye-catching accessories like big hoop earrings, feathers, bracelets, and other accessories, but make sure you don't wear too many accessories. You certainly don't want to look like a walking accessory drawer, do you?
Step 3. Try wearing trendy clothes
Sometimes, all you have to have to feel exotic is the courage to try on clothes that other people aren't wearing. Choose one type of clothing that is different and striking, then look for ways that you can have an exotic appearance with that outfit. Be the first in your neighborhood to dare to have a different style.
- For example, wear a fedora and mix and match with a tight white t-shirt, suspenders, and tight black trousers. This new look can make the pretty spring dresses your friends are wearing suddenly seem boring.
- Alternatively, you can go shopping for vintage clothes and opt for a large beaded necklace that, you can guarantee, no one else you know has, or a pair of bright red cowboy boots that no one but you wears. Dare yourself to be the exotic!
Step 4. Match your body language with your new exotic side
If you want to have a charming yet mysterious demeanor and a steady self-confidence, try to be someone that other people don't read easily. Keep your head and shoulders straight, and puff out your chest to show pride in yourself. When trying to be mysterious, don't just show how you feel. That way, you will be too predictable.
Keep your body language sexy. If you are a woman, show this sexy side through your waist. Sit cross-legged and make sure your calves are crossed. Your movements should be smooth, but firm so as not to reveal a weak side. If you are a man, have a keen eye (if the situation is right) and learn the art of a charming 'dead' smile
Step 5. Let people continue to be curious about you
Don't open yourself up too easily to other people. As in the previous step, the biggest aspect of being exotic is being new and engaging. When you interact with other people, don't just tell every detail of your life story. When you leave the conversation, keep people curious and want to ask you more.
