Awesome Style Tips For The Bald Man [0:00:00]
[Music] Antonio: In today’s video, gents, I’ve
got special guest, Ihsaan of the StyleJumper and we’re talking about seven style details
that look amazing on bald men.
Point number one, glasses on a bald man.
Why does this work more than if you’ve got that head of hair?
Ihsaan: Because there’s no distractions, Antonio.
Having glasses with a bald head, a person has to focus on you.
Antonio: That is what you want.
You want people to look at you, to look you in the eyes and to be able to connect with
them.
These ones you’re wearing right here, these are – these are different.
I mean, you don’t see too many guys rocking something like these.
Ihsaan: The circular glasses look great because, again, it – and I usually wear bowtie.
Antonio: Yeah.
Ihsaan: So, it reminds people of a professor.
It gives you makes you smile.
They’re already going to be looking at the bowtie, so now I have three things.
Antonio: Yeah.
Ihsaan: The bald head, my bowtie, and a pair of glasses.
Antonio: So, very distinctive, definitely someone when you see and you meet Ihsaan you’re
going to remember him.
And there are so many options I think guys that wear glasses having three to four different
types of glasses with different styles.
Ihsaan: I agree.
And, it’s a great accessory to your outfits.
Antonio: Yeah.
Ihsaan: So, the different frames, they’ll actually make you look a little different.
Antonio: And when people have frames that actually are very pointed draw attention,
it does the science is clear it does make you look smarter.
Our second point is sunglasses as well.
The most common style we’re going to see out there that every man should have – Aviators,
they look amazing on a bald man, but maybe try Wayfarers maybe go for a pair of Clubmasters.
Ihsaan: The thing about shades in a bald man is that, again, like the glasses you’re
going to focus in on that person’s face.
But, with the shades, you’re definitely going to think this guy is probably a badass.
Antonio: Yeah.
I can see the association.
When people see shades, they think mystery, they think Hollywood, they think celebrity.
Ihsaan: Mystique.
Antonio: And so, yeah, who is this guy?
He’s got, you know, he’s got the bald head looking like The Rock looking like Vin
Diesel, he’s got those shades, but for the bald man, glasses are where it’s at, right?
Ihsaan: I agree 100%.
Antonio: Next up, gents, we’ve got color and let’s talk about one color in particular
that bald man can rock, and that is the color black.
Ihsaan: Absolutely because with the color black, it brings that mysteriousness.
It brings a level of confidence and elegance.
Antonio: So, I know what some of you guys are thinking, bald head black mixing aggression
with aggression comes off as too aggressive.
What do you think, Ihsaan?
Ihsaan: I think it depends on where you’re going and the statement you’re trying to
make.
Antonio: Okay.
Ihsaan: So, if you’re trying to really impress someone, black is the way to go and you’re
going to look very appealing and sexy.
Antonio: But, what about in a situation where you want to tone it down?
Ihsaan: If you want to tone it down, I would recommend a gray.
Antonio: Okay.
Ihsaan: Kind of muted, makes a little more calmer, and still sexy and appealing.
Antonio: Now, this next one I find really interesting and that is that bald men look
better when they unbutton a few buttons on the front of their shirt.
They show a bit of skin.
For me, this is a repeat of the skin because you’ve got the bald head, you’re showing
skin right there, and then we see skin again here.
Now, this goes to a scientific study that talk about when men show more skin that they
look more attractive, but this is something that we went back and forth on.
It’s kind of our opinion, let us know down in the comments if you agree or disagree that
bald men can pull this off more.
But, when it comes down to it, I think bald men have to have strong confidence and this
is one of the reasons why it works.
Ihsaan: I agree, Antonio.
When I shaved my head, I had to realize that there’s no turning back.
It added my confidence, it boosted me up, and I began to believe in myself even more
because there was no more distractions and having a little open shirt doesn’t hurt.
Antonio: So, the next style feature that bald men absolutely own, guys, is facial hair because
let’s face it, when you stop growing hair on your head, you want to replace it somewhere,
your face is the natural destination.
You were 32, your hair stop growing on the top of your head started thinning out and
you made the decision to shave and you also made the decision about your facial hair,
right?
Ihsaan: I did.
I started playing around with it actually, Antonio.
I did a little goatee, I did a little mustache, and actually in the past couple of years,
I really decided to dive into a full beard.
Antonio: Now, tons of options out there, guys.
I’m going to link to a video that goes in a different facial hairstyles down in the
description.
As you can see, we’ve got them laid out for you right here.
Ihsaan: It can change the shape of your face actually.
So, you can try these different options.
As your facial hair is growing, play around with it.
You can get it trimmed or take some time to your point and just let it grow out and see
engage exactly what’s going to look best on you.
Antonio: All right, gents.
So, next on this list, let’s talk about headwear, let’s talk about hats.
If you are bald, you’ve got to functionally watch out for the sun because it’s going
to burn your head.
So, this is a functional tool that you could add to your wardrobe.
Tons of options out there.
Ihsaan, you are – you’re a hat man, right?
Ihsaan: Yeah.
I love hats, Antonio.
Couple of things that I love about it and this is for every guy.
It depends upon your height.
Antonio: Yeah.
Ihsaan: It’s going to make you look taller.
Antonio: True.
Ihsaan: It’s an added accessory.
It’s just going to give you another option when it comes to what you can put with your
clothes, so you have an opportunity to grow your style just by adding the hat.
Antonio: And you stand out from the crowd, right?
Ihsaan: Absolutely you’re going to stand out.
Antonio: And, let’s talk about making impressions on people and people remember who you are,
you’re the guy – worst case, you’re that guy with the hat, but at least you’re
looked over not overlooked.
Nudie Cohn said that.
[0:05:06] Ihsaan: If you meet a guy or you see a guy
with a hat, you’re going to be drawn to that person.
So, you’re going to look through the crowd and say, this guy must be pretty cool.
He’s a little confident and he has some variation in the style.
Antonio: Now, tons of hat options out there.
We’re going to bring up few images here, but we’ve got the flat cap which I know
you’re a big fan of.
We’ve got the fedora, comes in a wide variety of options.
We’ve got the boater cap which we’ve talked about actually in another video.
This one requires a bit of confidence.
Go out there explore and let us know down in the comments your favorite cap.
So, next up, we’ve got earrings, and I think earrings work for the man that’s bald because
you don’t have any hair that’s going to hide them or get in the way.
Your ears are more pronounced when you’ve got a shaven head and you actually used to
wear earrings, correct?
Ihsaan: I used to wear earrings, Antonio when I was much younger.
Antonio: Yeah.
Ihsaan: And, it was always a conversation piece just to talk about, well, let me see
what earrings you’re wearing and that gave me another option of what I’m going to wear.
It can be a small hoop, it can be a stud.
Antonio: And, I remember there was a guy that used to play basketball that wore earrings.
What was his name?
Ihsaan: Michael Jordan.
Clean cut, bald head, and he wore hoop.
Antonio: Whether you like earrings whether you don’t, this again is something that
a bald man can bring in.
If you have a bald head, you have the opportunity to really bring in a lot of stylistic – a
lot of stylistic details that a lot of men just can’t pull off the way you can.
