At school, have you ever felt completely transparent and neglected? What was your reaction? Maybe you think you're not popular enough. Find out how to get other people's attention for the right reasons by reading this guide.
Steps
Step 1. Pay attention to your look and style
Style examples: create lots of small tight braids on the side of the head for a faux half-shaved look; tease your hair to add volume; high ponytail or messy braids. If you have no idea how to make these hairstyles, look for tutorials on youtube. Don't let your hair get greasy or smelly (dry shampoo is a good solution for lazy people!). If necessary, also use a deodorant that is effective against sweat! Being among the first things people will notice are pretty important. Through look and style you will be able to get noticed by people, encouraging them to talk to you.
- Express yourself through your clothes, wear clothes that fit your figure and in which you can feel attractive.
- Don't forget to moisturize your hair and style it to look good.
-
Don't forget: concealer, powder, eyeliner, mascara, some blush and some lip gloss (as already mentioned, look for tutorials on youtube). Apply small amounts for a feminine, natural and graceful look.
Step 2. Be outgoing:
in the long run, shyness will harm you. You have to take the initiative to go talk to people. Get to know lots of people and chat with them often.
Step 3. Join a club or sports association as long as you really like it
Otherwise, others will notice your exaggerated pursuit of popularity and will not be attracted to it.
Step 4. Treat every person you meet as a friend, in return you will receive their attention
Step 5. Show yourself open
Act cheerfully and show people your desire to make new friends that will allow you to become even more popular.
Step 6. Talk and be sociable
It may seem complicated, but just let yourself go and do what you want. If you want to meet someone you like, go talk to them. If you want to try something new, do it!
Step 7. Choose sympathy
If you want to make new friends or just want to get people's attention, you need to be polite and courteous.
Step 8. Always make people feel welcome
This is a general rule that you cannot put aside. Show your joy in seeing others (even when it's not real).
Advice
- Be yourself and trust yourself!
- Don't get obsessed with looks or you will look fake, although this is an inherent aspect of the definition of popularity. Don't inspire others to be cool, be yourself, that's cool.
- Listen to the teachers, study hard and do your homework. Participate in class, ask questions and clarify your doubts. You will get peer attention as well as good grades.
- Flirt: be sociable, smile and wink, show all your charm to the person you like.
- It's not necessary, but if it sounds like a good idea, apply for a class rep.
- At parties, dance a lot and try to be the sexiest dancer. Create new steps or moves so you can dance at parties and get the attention of those present.
- If you feel confident, try to approach the person you like and talk to them, and also chat with their group of friends in case they are not alone.
Warnings
- Don't exasperate your pursuit of attention so as not to appear desperate or annoying.
- Avoid the dramas. If someone tells you a rumor, close the discussion and leave.
- Wear clothes that are easy to manage, but very sexy, like a pair of skinny jeans. However, try never to overdo it so as not to appear ridiculous.
- Don't wear the same outfit over and over again.
- Don't embarrass yourself, that's not the kind of attention you want!
- Try not to attract the wrong kind of (sexual) attention.
