The Worst Looksmaxxing Advice (TIER LIST)
Main summary
Key takeaways
Summary
Ross (Rorz) ranks common “looksmaxxing” advice by how useful he thinks it is. His central message is to improve multiple aspects of appearance rather than focusing only on the face, and to avoid giving up because of perceived genetic limits. These are the presenter’s opinions, not medical guidance.
Advice he rates highly
- Get lean: He argues that reducing excess body fat can make a major difference to appearance. His specific body-fat targets are personal claims, not universal health recommendations.
- Address skin problems: He recommends treating acne and improving skin texture, including through diet and skincare. He mentions Accutane, retinol, and tretinoin; these medications can have risks and should only be considered with a qualified clinician.
- Don’t set limiting beliefs: He encourages taking practical steps instead of getting stuck in fear or endless analysis.
- Looksmaxxing involves self-awareness: He says recognizing one’s own strengths and weaknesses helps people make better choices and avoid unsuitable changes.
Advice he rates positively or moderately
- Exercise and fitness: He rejects the idea that people should ignore their bodies and focus only on their faces. He recommends being fit, while noting that this does not require becoming exceptionally muscular.
- Mewing: He says it may affect the appearance of the area under the chin but is unlikely to transform facial structure, especially quickly.
- Hair and styling: He considers choosing a hairstyle that suits one’s face important.
- Bone structure: He sees it as relevant to facial attractiveness, while acknowledging that not everyone can change it.
- Personal style: Well-fitting clothes can improve presentation, but he says style is an amplifier rather than a substitute for other traits.
- Use an archetype: He recommends tailoring fashion and presentation to one’s natural features and overall look.
- Height concerns: He argues that being short does not make attractiveness impossible, and mentions shoe lifts and limb-lengthening surgery as possible ways to address height. Surgery is a major medical decision, not a casual fix.
- “Ascend at all costs”: He partially endorses ambitious self-improvement, but says sacrificing health for appearance is counterproductive.
Advice he criticizes
- “It’s all genetics” and “don’t lift weights”: He says these attitudes can encourage people to give up or miss opportunities to improve.
- Facial exercises: He dismisses most facial exercises as ineffective.
- “Don’t get surgery” and “natural is always better”: He argues against blanket rules, while promoting surgery and other interventions as possible options.
- “Coloring doesn’t matter”: He says contrast and features such as eye or hair color can affect visual impact.
- “Just shower”: He sarcastically rejects the idea that hygiene alone is enough to improve appearance; the video does not offer a serious alternative hygiene routine.
- “Roids are cheating”: He argues that enhancement drugs are not inherently “cheating” outside competitive sports, and suggests they may be worth considering for some people.
Important health context
The video makes strong claims in favor of cosmetic surgery, steroids or other drugs, tanning peptides, and intensive appearance optimization. It does not provide a balanced discussion of their risks. These interventions can carry significant health consequences; decisions about medication, hormones, or surgery should be made with qualified medical professionals. The video also uses shaming language about bodies and appearance, which should not be treated as a measure of anyone’s worth.
