clothing style after losing your hair

Yeah I'm not sure how anyone over 21 manages to pull of those flat brim new era caps. The colours and designs are way too extravagant, but I guess if you got a more plainly coloured one and dressed it down with more subtle attire, then it might work.

Generally I think if you're a young NW5/6 and you shave your head, you should still be able to get away with most clothing styles. It may make some guys less good looking, but fashion-wise it's a lot more compatible than having grown out balding locks of hair.

I think young NW3/4s who continue to grow their hair out look older and more ridiculous than bald guys when they try to pull off really young looking clothes... I know I do anyway!

As a 24y/o NW3, I've had to ditch the hoodies and the Nike AF1s recently because with my naturally high forehead + receding hairline, I look more like a college professor now when my hair is grown out.

If my loss keeps progressing to the NW4-5 stage in the next few years then I will shave it off because no one should have to start dressing like a 40y/o when they're still in their 20s.

True, I have noticed a few people who pulled it off. However, when older guys in their 30's or so wear them they just don't look right. My friends who are about that age with flat brimmed caps look like junkies unfortunately.

I haven't quite ditched the hoodies yet but I am buying more nice-looking sweaters, dark jeans and stuff to pull off more of a clean-cut look. I used to have very long hair and wore borderline 70's type styles such as pearl snaps and it really worked for me. Now with short hair and pearl snaps I look like some country-western singer :roll:

So far I think I am about a norwood 2 with thinning in the crown so I'm trying to grow my hair out long again. I don't know how it will look yet but I have hope. I used to get people telling me I looked like Jesse Spencer all of the time, man I miss those days!

I struggle with clothes. I have low to medium contrast in my face now, which means I'm unable to wear a black suit with a white shirt without looking ill. I need to go with lighter colors and less contrast.

I wear mostly uniform and some sportive style clothes . Ordered myself nice stuff from ashro, love the quality, design and the breathable material.
Just want to call their customer service by link and discuss with them couple of details. I think i found my favorite brand now and don't need to experiment anymore.
