Personal Grooming is probably the most important thing in every field.It maybe in the field of business, designing, an executive at a corporate office, teachers or even in restaurants!
MEANING:
Personal grooming not only means looking neat and good but includes everything that makes you more sophisticated.
Looks, the conversation skills, the attitude, the posture, the dress style even the hair-style is very important in grooming.
LOOKS:
Looks always have always played a very important role in everything a person does.If a person is good in talent, speech, etc but looks untidy and uncivilized, the person creates a bad impression immediately.
These points are very important for good looks:
1)You need not have the looks of a supermodel, but should be neat.
2)Your hair should not cover up your face but held back.Men should have a short haircut and ladies can tie their hair or put it in a bun.
3)There should not be much make-up.The make-up should be natural and light, not bold and bright.
CONVERSATION SKILLS:
Conversation skills too, make a huge impact.
The speech should be fluent without grammatical errors.
The voice should not be too loud nor too soft.It should be filled with confidence.
One should be good in atleast one language, preferably English.
ATTITUDE:
Attitude, here, does not mean pride or ego.
Attitude means confidence nad determination.
For example, a person might be wearing a dress for over 15000 rupees but does not know how to carry herself with a good attitude, the expensive dress too looks very cheap!
POSTURE:
Posture, is one of the most important things in any kind of job especially.
A person who droops and slouches during an interview, immediately carries a sign of boredom and laziness.
One should sit or stand upright and always have a smile on their faces.
DRESS STYLE:
The type of clothing worn by one also shows what kind of a person he/she is.
One may not wear very expensive clothes, but jsut make sure that the clothes are well-ironed and crisp, and not wrinkled.
During an interview or job, one should not wear bright colours so as to direct unnecessary attention.
They can just wear a sober shirt, maybe white, beige or cream along with blue, black or beige trousers.
Ladies can even wear a little bright indian wear like yellow or orange but not too eye-candy!
HAIR STYLE:
Hair-style is very important too.One should not colour their hair in bright colours like red or pinkish as it will divert attention.
Maybe burgendy or a light brown might do.
Boys should not try to create queer hair-styles, just keep it plain and simple.
OTHER POINTS:
It is said that the first impression is the last impression.
Therefore, one should not flaunt much and remain sober and calm.
Don't try to pride yourself more by talking on your cell phones all the time, unless an emergency, keep it in your hand-bag.
The shoes make a huge statement too, so wear the appropriate ones for the right occasion.
Always have a good social and friendly attitude with your colleagues.
Talk with manners and have good mannerisms like not fiddling with hair, nails, etc.
CONCLUSION:
Thus, personal grooming creates a great effect not only in our professional lives but is necessary even in our personal lives.The way we eat, talk, walk, dress, etc all pass some or the other remark about ourselves.
So, remember no matter what you do, be well-groomed!
