Some women would prefer to downplay their beauty. It may be for work or to put off a suitor, but for whatever reason, you can do so in many ways. Try the following strategies to help you accomplish this.
Wear your hair in braids, buns and more subdued styles
A lot of beauty has to do with how women style their hair. A fancy voluminous hairstyle can make a woman look much more glamorous. On the other hand, a plain hairstyle such as a braid or a bun may make a woman look plainer. You can try these. Also, women who dye their hair blond or another color that stands out might accentuate their beauty more. A plain brown might not stand out as much. If you have gray hair then leave it instead of coloring it. You can also get a simpler hair cut such as one without layers. Do not use hair products meant to give volume to or enhance hair.
Wear glasses instead of contacts
Some women find that they look less glamorous with glasses instead of contact lenses. If you need something for your eyes, then you can choose the glasses instead. There are some frames that are not as flattering that might help to downplay your beauty.
Wear loose fitting clothing
Clothing can also make a woman look much more – or less – beautiful. Do not wear clothing that is tight and makes your shape stand out. Instead you can wear looser clothing that skims over instead of accentuates your curves. Also, you can wear a plainer color like gray or brown instead of something like red. There are certain colors that are more or less flattering for certain people so you can look for the ones that are less attractive with your particular skin tone. Wear plain serviceable flat shoes instead of fancy heels or boots. Do not wear something that accentuates your positive features such as something with a lot of cleavage. Make sure that it is very modest.
Do not wear makeup
You can also downplay your beauty with the absence of something that many women use – makeup. Even small amounts of makeup can add to a woman’s beauty so if you are looking to downplay it, then avoid this.
You may want to downplay your beauty for various reasons. Try the above methods to help you get the look that you want.
