Can you dramatically change your usual look in the space of a day? It’s dependent on what you really want from your new look, but it is possible! Indeed, all you really need to do is change one of the three things below and some people may even think you’re a whole different person. Sounds like fun? Then let’s do it! If you want to make a quick and easy change to your look that’ll have a lasting impact, check out these ideas.
Cut Your Hair
How long is your hair right now? If it’s been shoulder length and below for a long time, maybe it’s time for a chop? Even just getting rid of three to four inches can be enough to turn your look, but why not go all out here and really be dramatic? Cut your long hair into a short bob, pixie cut, or even shave an undercut into one side of your head!
Get a reliable hairdresser to do this for you, as you don’t want to make any rookie cut mistakes when chopping hair off at home. You might end up snipping your locks way too short and then be unable to style them at all.
Wear Contact Lenses Instead of Glasses
Do you have to wear glasses 24/7? Then it might be time to start wearing contact lenses and see how they work for you. You’ll have to get used to the lenses being in your eyes, and it may take a couple of days to get used to seeing your face without any frames sitting on your nose, but the difference will be striking!
If you’re worried about touching your eyes or having to spend ages popping your lenses in each morning, invest in a contact lens applicator. One of these will help you line up the lens properly, make sure it’s in the correct shape before you apply it, and you’ll be in far less danger of poking yourself in the eye!
If You Like Subtle Makeup, Try Bold Instead (and vice versa)
What’s your everyday makeup look? Whether it’s subtle or bold, try the opposite for a few weeks. After all, a different makeup style can completely change your own perception of your face, never mind someone else’s! And even if you decide you don’t like the new look, it’s fun to experiment.
If you usually have bright blue or green eyelids, swap them for a neutral tone or go for eyeliner only. If you never wear bold and bright red lipstick, buy a few shades and wear them out. You can also take inspiration from makeup looks of the past and line your face in different ways, highlighting different features and making your natural beauty stand out a little more.
If you want to quickly yet dramatically change your look, these are the kind of ideas you should try out. Spend some time trying out new styles and colors to find what feels right.
