Preparing for Individual Success for Your Professional and Personal Lifestyle

4/09/2013 by Chiquita Cheek

Success is something that we all desire to achieve and looking the part is 90% of the difference between you landing that new job at the interview or closing that sale with a new or existing client. Your appearance speaks volume and your personal image exudes confidence when all three areas are taking into consideration: hair, clothing and for you ladies…makeup. All of these departments require just a minimal of your time daily.

Ladies with long hair, a conventional French-braid, up do or a smooth, side bun with a sweeping bang works great with a summer dress, comfortable sandals and fresh clean makeup that complements your skin tone, making sure to highlight the face with your favorite bronzer and lip gloss! Ladies with medium hair length the classic, chic, modern bobs are back in style with edgier, jaw-dropping angles and eye-popping hair colors. This easy and functional hairstyle always turn heads and command respect when paired with a crisp, white, collared shirt and a navy or black, business suit either pant or skirt.

Again neutral eye makeup and your favorite coral or red lipstick is the perfect makeup for this powerful personality. Last but not least, short cropped or highly textured hairstyles are fun, funky and express your bold, playful and diva-like attitudes while you’re out on the town with your beau. This crown of glory looks amazing with those cute, pair of abstract earrings complemented with a sultry, smoky eye and nude lip paired with those comfortably, form –fitting jeans and sexy high –heeled pumps as you strut down the catwalk on Peachtree Street or 5 Avenue! Well guys, even with your limited wardrobe and accessories, your appearance is definitely important for success as well.

Whether the boardroom, gym or that favorite sports bar, the number one thing on the confidence meter is haircut…haircut…haircut! As a professional barber/stylist, I cannot stress enough to you men that a well-groomed man which includes shaved faced, manicured nails, polished shoes and again….a haircut is the ultimate stamp of approval for success. Keeping in mind that both ladies and gents can kick up the success meter by adding that touch of perfume or splash cologne to seal the deal! It’s th a proven fact that when you look good…you feel good so the next time you prepare for success, don’t forget to make the necessary adjustments starting with yourself.
