Can Colors Affect The Choices You Make In Life ??(find Out Here) by naijaspice: 5:52pm On Dec 17, 2016
Color can affect us in great measures. Starting from our mood, emotions, to actions and words – color can significantly affect them, psychologists say. It is well known that certain colors have certain type of effects and meaning, such as white representing innocence, or that blue makes us calm, or that red makes us aggressive, passionate and alert.
However, not everyone believes this. Or not everyone consciously notices this. The whole topic of psychology of color has been a great trick used by marketing agencies, supermarkets, designers and the rest. It certainly paid off for them. And when you think about it, we have been under the influence of color all along. Just think about the clothes you are wearing, your hair color, your house, car and everything else. Aren’t those things in that specific color because you wanted them like that?
Clearly, color has power, both subconsciously and consciously. And, with that in mind, here are 6 unusual ways in which color can affect us.

1. It can make us more confident and sexually attractive


Little black dress? Red lipstick? It’s no wonder these two are the staples of beauty and fashion. Black and red have been voted the most confidence-inspiring colors, according to this survey. Both men and women would prefer wearing black to important dates or interviews. According to them, black is the biggest confidence booster.
However, when it came specifically to first dates, women said they’d rather wear something red as it inspires passion and makes them feel sexy. When it came to men, whether it was a date or anything else, their color preference seemed to be blue, or black. And these were the two colors women liked most on men.

2. It can determine our buying habits


Supermarkets’ use of color has been mentioned in the introduction, and now you will see exactly how color affects our buying habits. First of all, the majority of your buys are based on the visual appearance of the product in question. You wouldn’t choose a damaged package over a brand new one, would you?
Therefore, the physical appearance plays a big role in the retail industry. Moreover, most of the products are red because red “screams”. A product with a red label or packaging will grab your attention faster than any other product because it invites you to look at it.
This color works best on impulsive shoppers. Green, on the other hand, is the opposite. It is used in shops in order to relax the buyers. Green is often related to nature and the environment, hence the relaxing effect. Because of this relation to nature, many environmental organisations have a green logo, like Greenpeace, or the Animal Planet Channel.
