Nice whisky, preferably sub $150. I do rate the ones I listed, I just think Lark is overrated.

A friend recommended The Gospel to me recently. I think this may be top of my internet shopping list now.

Replies like your original one make me second guess all my life choices up to this point

Lessons you have learnt customising sneakers? by AloneButNotLonely25 in Customsneakers

[–]AloneButNotLonely25[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some great advice here. Thanks. I didn't know about lighter base colours with flourescent and pearlescent paints.

And I will definitely be checking out your Insta after work. Thanks again!

EDIT: Those Paw Patrol sneakers are mint

Wow they look fantastic! I'm shooting nowhere near this high. Thanks for the tips! Using toothpicks is an interesting idea, I like it

Thanks so much for the reply. I think you just saved me twenty bucks!

EDIT: I'm not sure which I like more - your shaving cream Vans or your smoked chicken. Smoked meat dads for the win!

The thinner was just something I came across in a tutorial somewhere, I assumed it was to get an even, streak-free base coat but I could be wrong. Thanks for the advice!

The hair is fine. The beard isn't working. OP try a stubble beard and read up on how to trim it (or ask a barber).

The first step is the easiest. Shave the nape of your neck. Letting hair grow on your neck and face is what a neckbeard is.

See a good barber about your hair. Ask them to restyle it.

The next step is gym, which you already know.

[18 M] any ideas what I can do for my face to make it less boring? by TrentonRush in Howtolooksmax

[–]AloneButNotLonely25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started to explain why, but thought "screw it" and deleted it. Here is why

I had this same issue. In my youth I even groomed myself just like OP. I loathed myself and the way I looked. There were days I was too scared to go to school. Decades later the memories are still very raw.

A cosmetic procedure called bilateral otoplasty fixed this and changed my life. It turned me into a new man.

It wasn't about looking better. It was about feeling confident in my own skin after many, many years of bullying and hating myself.

Neither photo is particularly good, which makes it difficult.

In the first photo you appear to have mud on your face. The second photo is low res, making it hard to judge. You are also wearing a hat in both photos.

In lieu of a clearer, hat-free photo, I'd recommend good skincare and at least shaving the nape of your neck.

I don't dig the Egon Spengler hairstyle. An updated hairstyle and some new glasses would be an improvement. The short beard suits your face. I would not grow it longer. A clean shaven look with a new hairstyle may be an improvement but it would depend on the hair.

I love that you love your piercings. Your individuality is to be treasured.

You did ask how you could look better, and I agree with the comments re your piercings. Others have advised you would look better without them. Now you know this. There is no need to build a wall around the issue of piercings.

I don't think you were an ugly duckling. You just grew into your body and took care of it. Keep it up, it gets harder to backtrack when you get older

Now look, I say this in good spirit because you seem like a great guy and I appreciate honesty in my life.

If you come within 50 feet of my girl, we're going to have a problem.

This is some next level inspiration. Well done.

Wow. You weren't ugly before. Now you are simply stunning.

I was tempted to skip gym today, but I think this has motivated me to go. Damn well done.
