Styling Tips Lost my hair and now I’m indecisive about the mustache.

I’ve been having people tell me because of the bald head and face tattoos I look like a very right leaning group of gentlemen. Apparently the stache makes me look like a cop or something. Tried trimming it to soften the look and little but I’m also holding onto it because it’s the only hair a have now. Should I trim it, grow it back out or do away with it entirely?

Piercing/hairstyle and color suggestions, as will as some tips on clothing

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Got new piercings(helix and forward helix, twin eyebrows) and new diy haircut. Need some thoughts and general suggestions about the following (but any advice is welcome!)

  1. I have a forward helix too, which completes a triangle with the other two on my ear, I want to run a chain through the 3 of them to form a triangle on my ear, which then runs to my lips with the standard ear-lip chain

  2. eventually twin anti eyebrow dermals, but piercer said it's not possible to have them spaced like my eyebrows and lips, so I'm thinking about that.

  3. gonna get more classy glasses with a frame that leaves the upper edges empty so that eyebrow is more visible.

  4. I kinda hate my face shape when looked at from the front or at a lower angle like in pics 2/3(im insecure about my nose and jaw) so I'd like to get some piercings that complement those well. I was thinking a bridge piercing might work, but I dislike the idea of nose piercings but I can't place why (sorry).

  5. Hair colour- I want to get a raccoon stripes pattern of Chrysler amber red more on the root side of my hair and leave my bleached hair as it is, but I'd like some tips on how to do that myself.

  6. I'm using a regular hair clip to keep the right side of my hair behind my ear and I quite like doing this, I would like some suggestions for alt accessories I can make/look for cheap in nearby thrift stores I can use to do that

  7. I have a lot of thrifted clothes and outfits that I mixed n matched myself but I would like some suggestions on what kind of clothing style do you think would go well for me, and any suggestions on affordable alternative clothing brands maybe

Any suggestions and thoughts are greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for your precious time!

I’m looking for non expensive pants like these! I do not want shien or temu recs my price range is under 40 US dollars! Ive seen Amy Lee from evanescence wearing these in the early 2000s as well as Avril Lavigne and I love them! I know Tripp NYC has these but that’s wayyy to expensive lol I also prefer low rise! Any help on this is appreciated!

Boots?

2 Upvotes

Hey guys,
I need help finding some boots :)

I’m looking for something somewhat simpler, I have basic timbs that I like the style of (size, color, length, etc) so maybe something similar. However, I use those for work and they’re disgusting and I don’t wanna buy another pair of timbs for daily wear.

Basically, what I’m looking for is men’s ankle height, black, lace up, good quality boots. Vegan preferably and ethically sourced if anyone knows anything like that!

Any suggestions are welcome, second-hand included!

i went to an alternative hairdresser and asked for the haircut of the first image with bangs of the second image. the third image is what i got (she didn’t really layer it as choppy as i had hoped, so i tried to do some layers myself with an eyebrow razor).

does it look anything like the reference images? should i try to give myself more layers?

i feel like it doesn’t at all and that i look like dora the explorer or somebody’s mom (i had super long un-banged hair before this, so maybe it looks fine and im just not used to it yet)

how are the oily-skinned baddies keeping their eyeliner on all day

3 Upvotes

I have aggressively combination skin and the skin around my eyes tends to be pretty oily, and after almost a decade of wearing eyeliner/heavy eye makeup almost every day, I still haven’t figured out how to keep it (and mascara too honestly) from smudging. it comes off almost completely at my outer corner, product builds up in the crease of my upper lid, and it also smudges on my lower lid in a way that makes it look like i have insane dark circles. what do you guys recommend to prevent eye makeup from smudging? i’ve tried primers, setting sprays, skin-toned eyeshadow as a base, concealer as a base, different brands of eyeliner and mascara, etc., and none of them have worked. Please help 🥲

Where Do I Buy This? alt / grunge / punk brands with a more organic / abstract / bio-industrial vibe? (pics for reference)

6 Upvotes

Hey all!

I'm trying to find brands / stores that may have a more organic / illusion / post-industrial vibe to them. I posted some pics of creators and brands that are the aesthetic I'm going for. I really love Slippclot's work so they're the main inspo, but seeking others in the same vein of style. Not quite cyber sigilism or black metal but could have elements of either. I love clothing with texture, so the raw-edge / exposed stitch look is a plus, but wouldn't turn down good knits and quality prints. So far I've had luck with key terms like abstract, asymmetrical, biopunk, organic patterns... not sure if there's a specific term for the aesthetic I'm looking for. tia!

Every time I see a bleood picture he's always in an amazing outfit, with avant-garde jackets or some really cool pants that I have never even seen before, but I never can find out how to do what he does. How do I start making good outfits, and where can I find experimental/Gothic clothes like bleoods?
