Have you scrolled through a hundred pictures trying to figure out which one to use for your dating profile? Picking the right picture isn\u2019t easy. Should it be an action shot? What about the professional headshot that you had taken at work? Or maybe a picture of you and friends?<\/p>\n
Hinge, a relationship-focused dating app, released a report full of tips to help you pick the perfect picture.<\/p>\n
For men, pictures of a simple smile are the most attractive. Believe it or not, guys with a non-toothy smile are picked 43% more.<\/p>\n
People want to see the full profile of your face, so select a picture where you\u2019re looking right at the lens.<\/p>\n
People want to see what you look like, not your buddies. Your profile picture should be of you. Just you.<\/p>\n
A small handful of people turn their profile photo black and white, but those with this effect are 106 times more likely to get a \u2018like\u2019 on their photo.<\/p>\n
Your profile picture shouldn\u2019t be one that includes shades. It covers your eyes, which isn’t ideal.<\/p>\n
A black and white photo is about as crazy as you should get with a picture. Leave the Snapchat filters for texting or sharing with friends.<\/p>\n
For some reason, people think it\u2019s a good idea to snap a picture of themselves in the bathroom mirror. Take as many bathroom selfies as you want, but do not use them as your profile picture.<\/p>\n
A picture of yourself at the beach is also a no-no. Frankly, it\u2019s overdone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
