How to Be a Gentleman | Speaking Etiquette 101
Maybe you’re a teen that wants to be taken more seriously, a 20-something looking barely past puberty, or in your 30s fighting to climb the corporate ladder only to be pushed down because you have a ‘baby face’. In this video men’s style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro says any way you shake it, you look young for your age.
You may not be considered for a relationship or job position because of this. However, it doesn’t matter how you appear: it boils down to confidence (your presence). Find your presence!
How to Appear Older
- Facial hair – only try if you have the proper hair follicle formation! If you do have decent density in areas, grow it strategically.
- Get a professional and mature hair cut – get rid of the spiky, swooping, and long hair. Current popular hair styles are inspired by 50s and 60s which will help you look older.
- The way you dress – what is your brand? Refined & responsible or youthful & young? Look at your friends then ‘up’ it a notch.
- Act older – eye contact and posture (body language) can make you appear more mature, thus older.
- Speak more maturely – the level of confidence is different between young vs. older.
