How does a guy become a pretty boy?

[Anonymous]

Say he's tall and lanky with a slightly muscular build. He has soft facial features and wavy hair. Where should he start to becoming a pretty boy? He barely grows facial hair and body hair so he thinks he can do it. He has soft facial features and nice cheekbones. He wants to look cute instead of handsome. Any styles he should start with? What do you suggest for that metrosexual look?

Grow out your hair to the skaterboy look. Pay half attention to your clothes, and smile a lot..

Why should he pay half attention to his clothes?

If he coordinates toooo much and pays too much attention to how he looks, girls will suspect that he might have gay tendencies and/or feel uncomfortable like she has to dress up and look perfect all the time for him to respect her

Hmm I wish that gay stereotype wasn't so ingrained with wanting to look nice. Honestly? I'm not into the kind of girls who are really into dressing up all the time with makeup and everything. I guess opposites attract? haha

Haha me too. Actually my "type" is guys that know how to dress really well, but every time I find one, (I guess it's a societal reaction), I subconsciously try to find hints that might indicate he's gay or bi or something... Guys that dress well often have better social skills, act friendlier, flirtier, and more casually physical in general (many things associated with gay). I'm sorry you get the bad end of societal assumptions :/

[Asker]

Eh everybody has stereotypes associated with them in one way or another. It's not a big deal.

Lol. Wear makeup and get your nails done in Sparkly glitter

[Asker]

Why should he get his nails done?

[notsoserious]

Haha because nails are pretty

[Asker]

Yeah that's true.. I've occasionally worn black nail polish but I'm not goth or anything.

[notsoserious]

Not glittery enough haha

[Asker]

I don't know if I'd be down with glitter... hahaha

[notsoserious]

Bright colors anything beside black

Dress like a prep and start wearing tons of make up

[Asker]

What kind of makeup?

[Opinion Owner]

Olay. But also use lots of blush

[Asker]

Like what kind of style of makeup? I'm kind of new to makeup. The most I've ever done is eyeliner.

[Opinion Owner]

Stick to the eyeliner but just go for the typical bridal make up style. It's generic but pretty.

Okay thank you for all of your help :)
