According the research, which was carried out by Premier Inn, 90% of people agreed that first impressions counts towards their assumption of another person.
A further 25% said they also knew of a time when they had made a 'bad' first impression on someone.
When it comes to that first meeting between the opposite sex, men are said to look for women who curvy and therefore having child-bearing hips, suggesting a strong or healthy chance of pro-creation.
Of those surveyed, more than 50% said they noticed a woman's figure on a first encounter. This was followed by their hair (48%) and what they are wearing (47%).
Looking at the women, they are often said to be attracted to men who are successful and can provide for potential offspring. However, the survey revealed that women are just as perceptive of appearance as their male counterparts.
63% admitted they noticed the build and height of a man first, and was viewed as more important than relationship status (3%), their job (2%) or their car (2%).
Elsewhere, almost half of Britons admitted they had made the wrong assumption about a person they had met for the first time, with following meetings forcing them to change their initial thoughts.
Interestingly, 40% of those surveyed said that a good sense of humour could be viewed as a reason for not creating a good first impression, as is shyness.
A spokesperson for Premier Inn said: "Although our results show many people can change their minds, they highlight how important it is to make a good first impression – a smile and a sense of humour is key!"
