New rock stars: Professions that girls fall for
Bad news for guys with guitars: by 2013, all sensible girls realized that rock stars had big problems with their free time, self-conceit and healthy lifestyle. They were replaced by representatives of completely different professions: to be an art director, a cook, a sysadmin or a street artist is now equally beneficial (in all senses). Even if you do not take into account the fashion on mitboly and heritage, it must be admitted - we appreciate the men who create something material, and preferably with their own hands.
Cooks and restaurant owners
Not all girls like to cook, but many like the food and everything connected with it. If you look closely at the stars of the main festival of young cooks Omnivore, those who give high hopes are now divided into two bright types: brutal, with visible appearance and tattoos (like Carlo Mirarki, Roberta's owner in Bushwick) and refined, similar to intelligent professors of biology (for example, experimenters from Scandinavia Ola Rudin and Sebastian Persona). Of the minuses of these guys - at home they prefer not to cook, and yes, even the coolest of them wear crocs not only at work. But the fact that most young cooks beard - rather, a stereotype. In the kitchen often - under 50 degrees, and with a beard is not very convenient.
Perfumers
Perfumery - not the most common professional activity, but causing genuine interest. The new generation of "noses" no longer resembles frail laboratory technicians in white coats and does not have an ambiguous reputation in terms of orientation. When you look at the tattooed pet of beauty editors Ben Gorham (founder of the brand Byredo) and a descendant of the famous Ricci dynasty, and part-time racer, Romano Ricci (founder of the brand Juliette has a Gun), the question "How did perfumers become new rock stars?" disappears by itself.
Programmers
With the popularization of the TV series The IT Crowd, everyone began to treat programmers and system administrators in a slightly different way. About five years ago, mainstream women's magazines were spawned by articles in the style “Why do we like nerves?”, And even those who are all right with sight suddenly began to wear big glasses with diopters. The hype has passed, and we have to admit: not all programmers look like Johnny Lee Miller in the movie "Hackers", but in pleasant young companies (like Look at Media), programmers look nothing like designers or Furfur.
Designers and art directors
There are no good art directors with bad taste: it (the taste) may be strange or unusual, but bad - never. Being a visionary and not thinking like the rest is extremely important for this profession. Great taste and personal opinion is good, but keep in mind: if you cannot explain what you like or dislike about the new 032c or the updated DIS Magazine, it’s not particularly interesting to you. And maybe you with him.
Designers who can sew and make their own hands
Another profession, whose representatives because of the great delusion about the orientation, until recently, were not taken seriously by the girls. Now young designers themselves are working with tools and doing things inside and out: examples of young shoemakers from the “Workshop 55” brand or the creators of the Circle of Unity men's brand Oleg Akbarov and two of his friends inspire even people far from fashion. Doing something with your own hands is like a man. In addition, who will refuse a guy who can sew or make a beautiful gift by himself?
Architects and urbanists
People who solve the problems of the urban environment, who are not indifferent to the fate of bicycle lanes, separate garbage and ugly banner advertisements, have become new heroes unnoticed by everyone. The guys doing the right thing always attract attention. As for architects, recent graduates of the Moscow Institute of Architecture and Architecture do not limit their interests to Soviet constructivism and the lectures of Rem Koolhaas, they organize loud parties at Strelka and travel a lot. In addition, an intelligent architectural style in clothing can always be recognized in a crowd - and most girls like this style.
Proskater athletes and snowboarders
Perhaps the most important thing in this title is the “about” prefix: it’s not about idlers who have made their way around skateparks a lifestyle, but about real professional activity. Abroad is also well paid. Often, later, such activities are stuck in the creation of their own street brands or - for those who loved to shoot their friends during tricks - retraining in cameramen and directors. One of the obvious advantages - like all athletes, they are always in shape. Have you seen how Dylan Ryder or Tolik Titaev looks like, concurrently the only male model in the last show of Walk of Shame? Are there any other questions?
Hairdressers
Each profession has its own nuances, but in fact, hairdressers are the most pleasant and sociable people of all creative professions. At least the young people who work at Chop-Chop, Annie Hall, Mr. Right and Ptichka, produce just such an impression. Good hairdressers often have good taste in everything - music, movies, clothes. In general, there is something to talk about. And a big plus - the question of cutting will disappear by itself.
Music Producers and Promoters
The music has changed, and the attitude towards it too. But the guys involved in music are still interesting to girls. The illusion of belonging to something great is one of the reasons why everyone wants to be friends with music producers and people who bring good artists. Especially the girls like to think: “My boyfriend is arranging this party, and he knows everyone here,” however, hardly anyone will ever admit it.
Tattoo artists
Tattoo artists have never been so easily equated with artists, as now. Interest in tattoos is only growing, as are the queues who want to draw from Fuzi or Scott Campbell, who recently arrived in Russia and collaborated with Louis Vuitton. In Russia and Ukraine, the new generation of tattooists is also worthy of attention, and it seems that all the cool guys are already doing home tattoos. True, if your guy turns out to be a beginner tattoo artist, we would not advise you to experiment on yourself.
Street artists
Young people involved in street art, often not devoid of snobbery, but it is not as pronounced as that of gallery artists. Street art is still associated with something not entirely legal, and this, of course, attracts. In addition, they give the impression of people involved in something progressive, but at the same time very understandable.
