Do you keep trying to find ways of making yourself look taller? Do you keep failing and are now beginning to lose hope? If you exercise regularly and maintain a good diet you can create an illusion of height and, wearing the right kinds of clothes, you can present your height to the best possible advantage.
A good diet, rich in calcium, protein [which are made up of amino acids], carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals plus other trace elements, will all make a difference to the health of a person - especially one who is still growing.
Complement that with regular exercise and you will be able to keep your bones strong and healthy well into old age.
In turn, this will prevent the development of osteoporosis and the eventual loss of height as we get older.
Apart from maintaining bone health, regular exercise will ensure muscles develop strong fibers and are able to anchor themselves more firmly to tendons and ligaments on one side and bones on the other.
If you really do want to make yourself look taller and you have already adjusted your diet and exercise program, then take a good hard look at the clothes in your wardrobe.
What kinds of clothes are folded in your wardrobe? Patterned tops or pants will reduce your appearance of height.
Dainty little shoes will also reduce the allusion of height.
Two tones, where you look as if you are cutting your body in half, will also give a shorter appearance.
You may not think that clothes are so important, affecting how you look, but they really are.
Contrast by two horizontally different colors give the effect of foreshortening you and make your legs look short and squat.
Clothes which have buttons or patterns have a similar effect.
To get the best allusion of height, wear a single color throughout - in fact, go for some power dressing and wear a smart black suit.
You could also go for pinstripes - either in pants, dress or suit.
Dark colors are far better than light ones and anything that blurs your waistline is much better to maximize height that something that emphasizes your waist.
You will look more gorgeous when your height will have been increased.
