So, let us help you figure out what you should avoid!

Poofy, Big Hairdo

Back in the ’70s and ’80s, it seemed like everyone wanted big hair. It was all the rage to back-comb the hair or tease it. These days, however, it’s common knowledge that doing so will seriously damage your hair. Not to mention, this style is so outdated. Soft and silky locks are the way to go.

While the outfit might look great on its own, it might turn out to be useless if your bra is peeking through the shirt or if your underwear is too tight. Get seamless undergarments to avoid any embarrassing moments.

Jersey Fabric

Despite the fact that jersey is a comfortable material, this fabric can be rather unflattering by accenting the wrong areas. After all, it tends to cling to the body.

Wool, cotton, silk, and the like are better alternatives that will do well with hiding problematic areas. If you need jersey, opt for sheets or get looser pieces of clothing.

Overdoing It With Powder

Avoid using powder makeup. The reason for this is that it causes your skin to dry out.
