The more symmetrical a face is, the more appealing it appears to others. But there&#8217;s not much we can do, short of surgery, to change the symmetry of our faces.

While dude&#8217;s haircuts don&#8217;t come in enough varieties to have the same effect, there is another way guys can balance out their faces: hats. All hats make a man look more dapper. But picking a hat that is right for your face shape will increase your attractiveness and give you a sharper appearance.
