Tips To Get Taller

10 Easy Tips to Look Taller

November 19th, 2009

1) Practice Good Posture

Ideal posture can do wonders for your height. Excessive curvatures due to overuse and chronic stress compress the natural length of the spinal column, so straightening these curvatures out by stretching specific muscles and strengthening others is a great way to appear taller and more confident.

Here is a useful diagram of good posture as compared with bad posture too:

The Alexander Technique is helpful too in having better posture:

2) Try a hairstyle that is thin at the sides, and tall on the top.

If your hair is long enough, having it stand up can add inches to your height. Any issue of your local fashion magazine will probably have at least 5 different hairstyles you can find in photographs that honor the principle of being tall on the top and short on the sides. This ‘double strategy’ can be used to achieve the illusion of height. Here are examples of haircuts that do that:

This is what you should tend to for you to look taller.

3) Conceal your belt by blending it in with your clothes.

When using fashion and style to appear taller, you want vertical lines or stripes that create the illusion of added height, not horizontal ones as these achieve the opposite effect. Since belts are horizontal, you want to blend belts into your outfit by making it the same color as your shirt (or possibly pants).

4) Wear shirts with vertical lines or stripes.

Vertical lines and stripes create the illusion that you are taller. It’s a visual trick that both men and women use all the time (especially on television) and there is no reason why you shouldn’t use it to your advantage either.

5) Wear jackets with shoulder pads.

Jackets with shoulder pads make your shoulders appear broader and create that tapered ‘V’ upper body which helps you look taller and more athletic.

As men, we all have an ideal physique we’d love to achieve. This varies from guy to guy, but there are some general areas that we can all agree on and that is that we all want to be taller and we all want the ‘V’ (wider shoulders and narrower waist).

Wearing jackets and coats with shoulder pads can help you achieve this look, and as a result, people will make positive assumptions about you.

6) Wear a coat or jacket that is of the perfect length.

A coat of jacket should end where the buttocks meet the legs. A poorly fitted jacket is not only a fashion disaster; it has a negative effect on your height image.

Compliment a jacket with perfect length with shoulder pads (along with the other strategies you’ve being given) and you can instantly appear taller to everyone… wherever you are.

7) Match your pants’ color with your shoes to make the legs look longer.

Matching the color of your pants with your shoes is a great way to create the illusion that you have longer legs.

Making the belt the same colour as the pants simply looks like your pants so this doesn’t achieve the same effect as having the right shoes does (note that Altitude Shoes come in various colours and shades for this reason!).

8 ) Lengthen your upper body by wearing a belt that matches your top.

This adheres to the same principle in the strategy above - colour matching.

A belt doesn’t do much for your lower body, but the upper body is a different story.

Matching your belt with your shirt creates the same illusion that matching your pants with your shoes does, and it’s a great way to appear taller.

9) Use Dark Colors

Dark colours such as black, blue, and grey project power and competency. In today’s society, people respond to power, competency and confidence. People with power and confidence seem taller and more intimidating even if they are actually physically not. This is an interesting psychological effect and one that you can take advantage of.

Thus, to complement your height, dark colours can help you exude greater confidence and this will earn even more respect among your friends, co-workers and others in your world.

10) Wear Height Increasing Altitude Shoes.

Of course, finally, you should wear Height Increasing Altitude Shoes. You can become 2-4 inches taller instantly just by changing your footwear and wearing Altitude Shoes.

Height starts from the ground up, so why not start by adding height there :-) ?

Announcing the Launch of Height Increasing Altitude Shoes and the “How To Be Taller” Blog!

November 18th, 2009

Hi guys,

My name is James and I am the short (but determined!) guy who developed Height Increasing Altitude Shoes.

If you’re like me, you’ve definitely wondered what it would be like to be taller.

I got into this market by being short myself and dealing with the problems that came with it.

I’ve gone through jobs watching taller men (who weren’t necessarily smarter) get promoted. I’ve been to bars and clubs watching taller men (who weren’t necessarily better looking) take home beautiful women while I sat on the sidelines. I used to get bullied and teased about my height by taller guys.

This created a lot of anxiety and frustration for me. I used to blame my genetics. My parents. Even God. Eventually, I thought that I would have to settle for my height and that there was nothing that I could do about it.

It was during one of the most frustrating moments in my life that I came up with the idea of Height Increasing Altitude Shoes. I was on a date with a girl who I met who was NOT taller than me initially, but WAS taller than me in high heels. I took her to the bar for a drink and whilst I was waiting at the bar but not getting served amongst a sea of taller guys, the idea came to me for Height Increasing Altitude Shoes.

- No more standing on the tips of my toes (as I would often do, almost subconsciously, in situations).

- No more being passed over for promotion because I was too short.

- No more being looked down upon.

- No more losing a girl because I was short.

That is when Height Increasing Altitude Shoes was born and today, I am VERY excited to launch the brand and website!

The shoes are super high quality and we have planned whole new ranges of super stylish shoes in future. I chose for Altitude Shoes to be an online retailer so that we could service THE WORLD (yes, we can deliver anywhere).

Anyway, in closing, this is why I developed Altitude Shoes. For this vision:

You walk into a room and people look at you differently. Those who don’t know you wonder who you are. Those who do know you can’t figure out how you seem to have changed. It seems that overnight, you have more… presence. Women. Men. They all act differently to you.

If this is not in your reality at the moment, I understand. It wasn’t in mine either until I started wearing Height Increasing Altitude Shoes. The testimonials of our customers reflect this experience.

Personally, even with my high expectations, I was amazed at the difference being a few inches taller made to my life, so I hope the shoes (and this blog, which will have many other useful tips of how to get taller) improves your life and you experience the change I did.

Through this blog, I will provide you with information on how to get taller. I know that this is of interest to MANY of our loyal customers so I promise to bring you the best information that I can. Check the blog regularly!

As the Irish say, “You’ve got to do your own growing, no matter how tall your grandfather was!”

To greater heights,

James
