Who said that good hair days are superficial?!

It’s been proven time and again that how we feel impacts how we look, and vise versa.

When we look great, we are more likely to feel great! Everyone has felt that magical confidence boost of getting your hair or makeup EXACTLY how you wanted it to look, and walking out your front door feeling like you can do anything.

I have wondered, however, if there is some psychology to that “good hair day” feeling. According to several psychologists around the world, yes, there is! Dr. Vivian Diller, author of ‘Face It’, calls this phenomena beauty self-esteem. By taking care of our outward appearance, we can provide ourselves with a confidence boost before we walk out into the world and start our day.

Most people tend to associate confidence with a sense of control, or a feeling of assurance. Doing your hair allows you to feel some of that control, and style a large part of your appearance precisely the way you’d like others to see it!

You can be absolutely, definitively in charge of your hair by altering it through curling irons, flat irons, color, and a new cut! Make your hair a direct reflection of the you you’d like to be! Whether you like to stand out with fantasy color, or radiate sophistication with a stylish new haircut; your hair is yours to own.

Because our appearance tends to have a direct correlation with our self-confidence, it is important to take the time to ensure that we feel good about how we look. Any stylist would tell you that is extremely important to have a hairstyle that reflects your personality, because your hair does affect the way others perceive you on a first impression.
