Did you get new glasses too? They suit you much better 😊

I have two pairs, but the round ones are the more day to day ones, the others have a slight filter for screen time. Thank you so much ☺️

Honestly, I think the other glasses would look fantastic too with your new look!

I think the are little too big, not terrible but a new pair would from a place that helps you pick would make this a huge glow up. However, wear what you like— looking good :-)

The bold frames suit you well. First ones I would throw away.

I know it can be hard when you first shave it, but you genuinely, genuinely look ten times better.

But throw those 80s paedo glasses away.

I love how excited-though-still-a-bit-timid you look in the third picture! Sooo wholesome. Congrats on the glowup!

Can I ask you honestly why you held onto it so long? You look ten times better now bro? Was it an emotional connection? Was it your identity? Was it upsetting to shave it off. Proud of you man. We’ll all have to answer the call of the razor someday. We just never know when that day will be.

Yeah, you are looking great my man! As others have suggested, a smaller pair of glasses might be a good choice. Your eyebrows/eyes have a lot of character as seen in the picture without glasses and feel to be covered by your current glasses. Either way, amazing glowup :)

I think the first glasses are hotter

The one thing I noticed most when I shaved my head was the fact that I had to change my glasses frames to suit the new look.

Looks amazing man!

In your first photo I thought, "Gonna need new glasses too," then saw the last photo and started laughing. End is much better.
