How to look like a lifeguard:
1. Wear a one piece suite ALL the time. I'm not kidding, if you are a true lifeguard you will be married/buried in it.
2. Next layer on you favorite pare of Gym shorts and a one size to large guard shirt. These are a must. The usual swimmers will ask you at least once a day if you own a different pair of shorts. This is a good sign. This means they see you as an authority figure and are watching your every move.
3. Accessories are a staple. Layer earthy bracelets, anklets, and maybe a ring. Nail polish has to at least be on the toes. Fingers you can let slide. Sunglasses are super important too. Even if you work inside you better sport those bad boys.
4. Ditch the shoes.
5. Hair can really be however you want. This is your moment to shine.
6. Last of all layer on the safety equipment. Guard tube, whistle, and that sexy fanny pack too! You won't be taken seriously with out it.
7. There you go! You now can strut your stuff and look like a life guard who knows what they're doing.
