Hair flipping is one of the most powerful signals a woman can unconsciously send to show interest in a man.
The hair flip basically happens when a woman finds a person attractive. In such a case, the woman will put her hand through her hair then push it back as if she is trying to reveal the skin around her ears.
One of our readers asked me an interesting question. He told me that if this sign reflects physical attraction, he might be an unattractive person since it often doesn’t happen.
The client was actually counting the number of women he sees in the street, then calculating the percentage of the ones sending him that sign, and as you might have already guessed, the number was pretty low.
Does this mean that my client isn’t attractive to women, or does it mean that he was doing something wrong?
Women are different
First of all, one golden rule of body language states that the gesture’s presence indicates the presence of the emotion, but the absence of the gesture doesn’t mean that the emotion is absent.
A person can have a certain emotion without showing it up on his body language, which includes feelings of attraction as well.
But that’s not the only reason my client wasn’t getting signals. The brains of women work differently when it comes to physical attraction.
For a man, seeing a woman can instantly lead to intense emotions. Still, women usually need more time to reach that level of interest since they look for many more factors than physical looks.
In other words, sometimes a woman needs to get to know a person before she gets really attracted to them. My friend counted the number of women he sees in the street, which means that he was only counting a minimal number of the possible potential fans he could have had if he happened to know those women personally.
Of course, a woman can like a man instantly, but in such a case, this woman’s brain might have found many of the things she is looking for in that man based on some quick conclusions it made.
When body language becomes dangerous
Many people make the grave mistake of trying to give meaning to everything that happens in their lives during social interactions using body language alone.
While body language is powerful, it can also be very destructive if the bigger picture wasn’t considered. Yes, body language is accurate, but without a proper understanding of human psychology, you can end up getting wrong results and losing your self-esteem.
In short, a person can like you but send no signals. However, if you kept seeing that person, then the chance of finding signals will become very high.
