6. Bad Posture

This might sound funny, but it is a great mistake most men make that makes them look older than their age.

Your haircut goes a long way in deciding how you look. If you cut your hair like that of an eighty-year-old man, then you will surely look older.

Therefore, stay in tune with all the trending haircut styles to look younger.

8. Stop Relying On One Clothe
