Looksmaxxing, also spelled as looksmaxing, or shortened to looksmaxx, also spelled as looksmax, is the process of maximizing one’s physical attractiveness. While the practice as a whole can refer to simple hygiene, more extreme methods have become associated with looksmaxxing, such as "mewing". The practice is affiliated with incel subculture, and originated on "manosphere" message boards such as Lookism, Sluthate and PUAHate.[1] The practice became a TikTok trend, and it became popular amongst mostly teenagers in the 2020s, with origins tracing back to mid-2014.[2]
