According to Merriam-webster.com, appearance can be defined as the way someone looks. More than just soft skill, personal appearance is also needed as part of an individual’s communication skills and presentation point of view. Outer appearance is important as that will be the first thing that people will see, and bring upon the first impression about the individual and the company the individual is representing. Looks will reflect the profession a person is in, and sometimes determines the credibility of the person itself.

Friedrich Schiller, a German Poet, philosopher, historian and playwright had once quoted, “Appearance rules the world.” What you look and how you present yourself will bring about an impression on your credibility and respect towards self. People will narrate their impression through the way an individual welcomes them; shake their hands, voice volume, way of walking and more. Each and everything plays a very important role in this case. In general, there are 3 main aspects that are showed through appearance. Firstly is good impression from behavior, secondly is harmony of body and attire and lastly the colour combination used. All these will determine on how professional the individual is and whether he or she suits the role to be played. Cleanliness and tidiness of the body and attire also needs to be seen about as that too indirectly become a part of the process of impression making.

Grooming does not occur by itself, but proper understanding of the body self is needed as to suggest on the best grooming process to be used. Nowadays, there are many accessories and attires that are fashionable and suitable for both men and women, showing upon professionalism yet stylish at the same time.

Susan M. Heathfield had written a research on communication and appearance in working, determining “Image is You” in her writing. The study showed that the first 30 seconds up to 2 minutes of the meeting is the most crucial one for determining if the conversation and meeting can go on, as that is the span of limited time an individual will be seen for their impression. Non-verbal also plays more role rather than verbal conversation.

Nowadays, there are many consultants and experts that can help in supporting the need of professional grooming, as grooming is an art and proper understanding needs to be attained to get it right!

Cleanliness and tidiness reflects everything!

www.thesavvygal.com

Appearance is never complete without focusing on the cleanliness and tidiness of the whole body and attire. Though an individual is using the right attire and having a friendly character, without proper cleanliness and tidiness, it will all be useless.

Cleanliness and tidiness reflects how clean and responsible an individual is. Cleanliness and tidiness of the body basically includes body and mouth odor, nails and heels. More than that, the attire that is worn, including stockings, socks, office bag and accessories used too needs to be seen about.

Each and every element of the body, odor and attire are important in the creation of the first impression. No good results will be seen if the looks are confident, but the nails are not neat and so on.

Cleanliness and tidiness needs to be checked every time before leaving the house, especially when meeting new people. People will see us from top to bottom, and that is why all aspects need to be checked about.

Quality, service, cleanliness and value… Cavett Robert, one of a successful speaker once said this quote where it suggest all these 4 aspects are vital, and cleanliness is one of them. No quality service and value will be complete without cleanliness.
