Save the updos for the workplace and let your hair down on date night. Likewise, you can skip that blowout because, as it turns out, many men prefer casually undone strands. Opt for loose beachy waves or romantic curls that'll make him want to run his fingers through your lovely locks.

If you can do with an extra boost of confidence on your first date, you may want to reach for your fave fragrance. A study found that women who wear fragrances feel more confident -- a fact that in turn makes 'em appear more attractive to those around them. So, don't run out the door without spraying your signature fragrance. Bonus: Dabbing your perfume in a strategic spot like behind your ears is sure to get your date to lean in for a closer whiff.
