I know we all take showers but rich people, men and women, tend to look especially clean and neat.
They are obviously generally slender but how the clothes fit them, they don’t look frumpy but neat and clean. The men have neat short haircuts and the women have straight shiny hair. I want tips as I always look sloppy! |
I’m rich and I look like crap.
No idea |
They prioritize it and have the money to do it right. I have the money, but no way am I sitting in a salon more than 3 hours a year total. Now massages, I dedicate a lot of time. |
I think it has to do a lot with $$ for good haircuts, high quality clothing, shoes, bags, outer ware, tailoring.
Also time NOT spent cleaning, cooking, any grunt work, but time spent relaxing, resting, taking care of themselves. |
Looking at bios of McKinsey executives and this is what I mean:

Rich people fat camp. they call it resorts or something but, we all know it is fancy 500 calorie meals in a secluded natural setting and exercise disguised as outdoorsy activities. Lose up to 8-10 pounds in two weeks.
Also, there is no cosmetic procedure that could possibly improve their appearance that they have not pursued. |
I’m in a law firm setting where i have a similar pic and make as much or more than these folks. We don’t look like this in real life. Most people making this money in these jobs is a little rough around the edges in real life. In a good way! |
You definitely can’t judge based on headshots. “Rich people” in good jobs get hair, makeup and styled for photo shoots. That is not what they look like ordinarily. Also, a lot of people are now using AI headshots. You can’t assume a photo is an accurate reflection of a person. |
Tailoring is key. As is getting chauffeured everywhere, so you’re never sweaty or windblown. But I agree that you can’t judge by headshots, which are posed and doctored. |
Oh please, those pics look terrible. I have one friend who is wealthy. She does look particularly shiny and put together, I have to admit! She also comes from a culture where there is a lot of pressure on women to look as good as they can possibly look (skin whitening, sun protection, surgery, diet, exercise, lots of beauty products, attention to clothes, make-up, etc). She puts in the work, has the funds, and gets results. |
If you look at pictures from “society” functions (ie, charity events, opening nights, etc) you’ll see that rich people look a little more normal in candid shots. |
Professional photos look very different than everyday life.
I have some great pro pics. In everyday life I’m less polished. But i think hair is a huge part of it. Keeping hair groomed makes a big difference. |
Looking at pictures from the NY social diary. My observation still holds: ![]() ![]() |
Don't underestimate the effect of tailoring everything.
Care for clothes: airing them, hanging or folding them right, frequent appropriate cleaning. Boot inserts to keep the shape. Good hair and skin products and procedures. Sufficient sleep, my god. |
I have no idea why you would want to look like any of these aggressively plain people. |
