For the most part, growing taller is out of our hands, coming down to many factors which we have little to no control over. While some steps to make small height gains can be undertaken, these may not be possible for everyone, and even then, you still may be looking to appear a little taller than you are. Or perhaps you simply want to appear taller for certain occasions only, without actually getting taller.
Whatever the case may be, we'll detail three proven and easily utilized methods for making yourself look taller, without actually gaining a single inch.
1) The most obvious would seem to be to change your footwear, without going overboard and making it obvious that you're heightening through your shoes. This can be accomplished through either the footwear itself, or through special insoles.
Many shoes on the market today are designed with height gain in mind, raising you one or more inches higher than a normal shoe, while still looking like a regular old shoe. Insoles can also achieve this same effect, those these are limited somewhat by what footwear is being used.
2) Keeping with the theme of outerwear, clothes too can be used to achieve the appearance of increased height, though unlike footwear or insoles, you're not actually gaining any height with these methods, just the appearance of being taller.
Wearing tighter fitter clothing should be your first priority, as loose or baggy clothes give you a more squat appearance. Vertical lines on shirts are another great way to give off the illusion of being taller. Women should wear compact dresses or skirts, and no-waste pants. Men should also stick to wearing their pants as low as possible (within reason), and wearing cuff-less pants is also advised.
3) Finally we come to hair, without a doubt one of our most recognizable features, and one that can fairly easily be changed to give ourselves a whole new look, be it through a new style, cut, or coloring. Hair can just as easily be used to our advantage in our attempts to look taller as well.
Now we're not talking about raising your hair to the sky like you just got caught in an electrical storm, but even slightly spiked hair can do wonders for men, while women should wear their hair up as much as possible.
These are three useful techniques for gaining height that can easily be made use of, and combines, could add plenty of actual and perceived height to your appearance. - 16004
