Alright, now let's talk about another artifact, body adornment. And when I'm talking about
body adornment, obviously I'm talking about jewelry. But I'm going to talk about another
thing as well. Your jewelry gives very much an impression about you. If you'll notice
me, I don't wear a lot of jewelry. That's my style. That is how I communicate non verbally
with that artifact. I kind of don't. But other people do. Some people wear, and guys and
girls, old and young, big earrings or little earrings or two earrings or nine earrings
or jewelry all over your face, or necklaces and bracelets and rings. That is an expression.
That is a way to communicate and give an impression about yourself. Now another body adornment
in addition to body piercing in general, is tattoos. Tattoos are very much a form of communication,
very much give an impression whether good or bad. Tattoos are very popular in society
today, so I don't think people really think about them. But they are very aware of them
and it is a way through artifacts that you express yourself. Now again, similar to clothing,
the only time you want to maybe alter your non verbal artifacts, might be depending on
the situation. If you are going for a job interview at a bank, and that's a very conservative
environment, you might want to tone your jewelry down or remove some of your body piercing
jewelry or possible cover up your tattoos. So, again it’s not anything you need to
change or be aware of. Just be aware of circumstantially it does form an impression.
