There's no "general look" in Argentina. This is a country whose population is composed by any kind of ethnicities, because of the million and million immigrants from Europe, mostly Spaniards, Italians, Frenchs, Germans and Polish, and the aboriginal people of the area where the country is located, peoples like Mapuches, Guaraníes and Quechuas. So despite most Argentines are European descent, there're Argentines who look like Nordic people from Scandinavia (like Cistian Nasuti, for example), and Argentines who are of pure Amerindian heritage (Caferino Namuncurá). But this doesn't end here, there're Argentines who are of Middle Eastern descent, from countries like Albania (David Nalbandian) and a really small, but still importan people of Asian heritage (María Kodama) and African heritage (Fidel Nadal).
