The “Madison Avenue Secret” to Perfect Tinder Profile Pics, Revealed…

Few things are more important in your Tinder profile than your pictures. First impressions are incredibly important, especially when the time you have to make an impression is shortened from about three seconds to less than a fraction of a second, like it is on most dating apps.

Of course, there's a lot of conventional wisdom out there about what kinds of pictures guys should use in their Tinder profiles:

“Use a group pic!”

“Use a pic with some girls in it!”

“No shirtless pics!”

“You have to use a shirtless pic!”

As you can tell, a lot of this “advice” is just a bunch of contradicting guesses by guys who are equally as clueless as you are.

That's why I turned to my buddy Race to clear the air and give you the definitive answer on what works and what doesn't when it comes to Tinder profile pics.
