Ridding dark eye circles:
http://www.skinacea.com/how-to/get-rid-of-dark-circles.html Despite how cool is it, it just looks so fucking evil and why?
My theory is that, it has to do with money. Fashion, specifically those runway fashion, is pretty much made for rich people. In order to participate in this activity (I'm not talking about just fashion in general but those so called "high" fashion) you have to be rich. And if you aren't rich? you're nothing but a fucking peasants to them.
Is my theory just a poor man yelling at the sky? Maybe? I don't know. But holy shit does this thing look so evil. What is /fa/'s opinion on Balenciaga? Are these people dressed well, unironically? I'm not into all this avant-garde stuff, and I'd assume a vast majority are not. So to me, this shit looks ridiculous. Nothing here looks good on these people. For those that are into Rick Owens type of clothing, did they style themselves well? A thread for stupid questions that don't deserve their own threads (about threads) My friend got a tattoo on his arm with his birth date on it, like the one on the picture, and it's such a retarded concept I feel bad for him whenever I see it.
Worse thing is, I was there when he got it and couldn't help but watch as he ruined his arm with the tattoo. >tfw 190lbs

/balding/ and /finasteride/ general.
Sticky: http://tuxbell.com/index.php/Balding
i was sick of seeing the gay alien man on the 'log edition!
Holy trinity:
Tabs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finasteride
Lotion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minoxidil
Shampoo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketoconazole
Finasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that prevents free T from being converted to DHT, which serves no purpose after puberty but to choke out your hair follicles and make them thin out and die, this is called androgenic alopecia.
Fin mostly prevents your hair from getting any worse, mild regrowth is expected, though some people see significant hair regrowth on fin alone. Can be taken orally or topically.
Minoxidil (liquid and tabs) is a vasodialator that opens potassium channels and widens blood vessels bringing nutrients to your hair follicles, stimulating hair follicles into thickening, accelerating growth and elongating the growth phase. Min is taken with fin to restore your hair to it's original hairline, thickness and vigor when taken early enough, (pre-NW2). Can be taken orally or topically.
Ketoconazole is an anti-androgen and antifungal that inhibits DHT on the scalp and used to treat fungal infections of the scalp that may be making your hair loss worse such as seborrheic dermattits, a condition where you exhibit severe greasy, flaky large dandruff flakes with dried yellow crystals (blood plasma) embedded in the scalp. Some people may only have traction alopecia (hair loss from scratching or friction), but it will not cure androgenic alopecia alone. Can only be taken topically. Thoughts on J-shaped sideburns? What does /fa/ think about chain necklaces?
I feel like they're one of the only ways to spice up a summer outfit as a man.
It's hard to have an outfit in the summer as a man and look good in it if you're skinny, but chains are about the only way I can think of to kinda level the playing field just a little bit. What's stopping you from dressing like this /fa/? remember when overalls looked good? Those skin whitening cream work? Which is the more effay Olympic athlete uniform, Canada or USA? U guys think I should buy New hair clips? I think the are cute and I think i need New ones>ω<
(even if you all say no i will buy it anywas^.^) what is the name of this style? Do you know what's wrong in this picture? Can they be helped? I was at the second hand store again today and liked those dresses.
Should I get any of them? Transgirl obviously. Now I need help putting together a closet. I've posted before about my internship, but now I'll have some money to get some real stuff. Please help me out. Are true low rise jeans finally back? The perfect male haircut (Brad Pitt) would like to have one. what are your recommendations as far as quality of construction/leather and how to spot crap Bleeding Madras Edition

>Brands: https://pastebin.com/Sb54Bsri (embed) How do I up my fashion?
I am a neet that wants to attract women. A lot of the young women I see don't even look at me when I wear clothing like this. Older women react well to me, but I feel like I stick out amongst guys that are wearing t shirts shorts and sneakers outside.
Can anyone comment on this phenomenon and why it might be occurring? I'm wearing brown loafers with this. bought a purple shirt from jcrew, you jealous? I need a new backpack. Something effay, durable, and inexpensive. The last backpack I bought was milsurp trash and completely fell apart within a month. I carry around many books, so it will need to be able to withstand holding a lot of weight daily. I got this shirt from a vending machine that gives you a random order that could not be delivered (or something like that). I've seen people getting things from a water gun to a smartphone. I got pic related. I'm not sure if the shirt is legit. It feels high-quality to me, but seems rather shady because of the way it was packaged in a chinese plastic bag.
Can you tell if it's real or fake? Are there signs to look for? Is this brand often faked? I want to sell it. And since I've only paid 10€ for it, I would be happy to sell a fake one, too, if there's a market for it. You go for a walk in a hawaiian shirt on a sunny day. You want to take a bottle of water and an ipad with you, not much else. A typical bulky backpack is clearly an overkill.
What would you use to carry your stuff around? Idk no one ever approaches me besides girls telling me I’m pretty or just complimenting anything, but how do I dress to catch the male eye more? (Ignore how scary I look I was doing that purposely) boots and shorts. does it ever work? how to pull it off what's your usual headwear? About early to mid-sixties in Western world was an epitome of style both in fashion and industrial design.
Unfortunately it was followed the most goofiest eras of all time - the seventies (except for movies).
I blame those smelly hippies. Get any cool shirts lately? What are your go-to places to find vintage or unique tshirts? Jacked dude called me big man at work. I made it bros. WAYWT
no corssdressers all black fits or bad mullets
fresh fits only please Why is his fit cooler than anything /fa/ can put together? /fa/'s thoughts on brutalmaxxing? Haven't seen one in a while People seem to hate it, but I think the denim jacket would be rad as streetwear. How would you style this shirt? Is this office appropriate attire? >late 80's, 90's and early 2000's suits looked like this
Especially Americans. Wtf was were people thinking Why is it that one of the most functional pieces of clothing is impossible to wear without seeming like a try hard fag? No one looks good with a hat, at least not any one who isn't rich, famous, or a chad.
Are hats truly relegated to the upper echelons of society? My hair is super thin, dry and light, i can't do anything with it, it goes in random directions and i look fucking stupid
I've tried masks and oils and there were literally no changes at all, no even in texture or feel or anything
How do i fix it? Is it over for me bros?
This seems to have happened very rapidly within just a few months, as far as I can tell anyway. It's all I can fucking notice when I look in the mirror and honestly, I'm getting so depressed. I'm an ugly dude but my hair has always been my best feature.
But I've also had an itchy scalp that comes and goes, alongside a burning sensation and pus-filled scabs. In fact you can even see some pink dots in the temples. So maybe it's some condition I need to get on top of now rather than later?
I just feel sick bros. they are rarely have chiseled jawlines or popping cheekbones but always look so effortlessly good. Rate these outfits. Who's doing it right? Who's cringe? How do I pull it off without it becoming boring you WILL wear the plastic and you WILL be happy For me, it's any tattoo.
They're cringe and don't increase your /fa/ness level. In the United States, nose piercings may have negative connotations. For example, in a 2006 survey done in the hospitality industry, 81% of hiring managers stated that piercings and tattoos affect their perception of the candidate negatively What designers or brands can I look to in order to find refined yet playful button-down shirts?
This shirt is an old Marc Jacobs. Love the panther print but incredibly rare and I'm finding it difficult to find anything that matches that style. what is a cologne that smells just like bleu chanel but cheaper?and preferably linear and lasts a long time There's something funny about somebody wearing a hat inside THE BEST WATCH edition.

Previous thread : >>18188652 Dark Academia was made for the refined, young gentleman. This is what you should be wearing. This needs to be a movement. Fine chaps wearing quality clothing made in Europe not hoodies and trackie bottoms made in the third world. Do better. Get smarter. Do you dress better then labor kid from 1912? Women just dress trashy these days, and men can also dress a lot better, at least some do class it up. Very rarely do you see women with some actual fashion sense beyond just showing skin, MAYBE a nice dress, but I think it'd be ideal if everyone started dressing like cavalry officers.
It's fucking peak. I'm in the market for a new winter jacket. In the place I live I get a short, but cold below zero winter, some rain, some snow once in a while. So apart from the style, what materials should I be looking at (I want to spend some more money for something nice that would last me awhile).
For example - would a wool coat get fucked if it gets wet? It's not a thong, just almost. Is it called Brazilian? Semi-thong? Something else? male piercings? /fa/ or /fa/g? Why do normies wear navigator glasses not aviator glasses?
Aviator glasses are more /fa/ imo 90% of my wardrobe consists of superhero t-shirts, but I feel like they are bordering on no longer being hipster ironic & alternatively fashionable. ive observed a lot of trends and i think the black tee with jeans is timeless. if youre in good shape it will always look good regardless of race/gender.
White/light gray/miltary green tee and jeans is also a good option. you can also swap for other similar tops as a girl.
you can throw on a denim jacket or overshirt/flannel if its colder out.
I recommend brown boots/shoes, but white sneakers work as well. what happened to motocore? post more of these I found something I want to buy on ebay but the seller isn't responding to my request for measurements are milsurp stores good places to go if you're kinda low budget and looking for decently made clothes or is this incel failed roof assassin core thoughts on the billowy jeans trend what type of fitting jeans look best paired with the picture? How can I get my gf to wear these types of clothes in public so I can do this pose? Greyman general #1 post your cloak of invisibility fits ITT
The term 'gray man' (or 'grey man' in British English) describes someone who looks unassuming and who doesn't stand out from the crowd, but is in fact well equipped for an emergency situation. In crisis situations, there are benefits to going unnoticed and blending in. what are the best foods to eat and to avoid for clearer skin? general tips also appreciated what’s the final verdict? What’s the ideal shorts inseam length? Help me out gentlemen, does it mean anything for a girl around the Nashville area to have red painted nails?
Usually they do blue or blue hair just to represent the local team(s). What should I conclude from the red color?
also pic related is a pair of $350 myrqvist derby boots What else gets better, instead of worse every time you wear & wash it? Things that just last forever. The most comfortable and aesthetically pleasing of them all I'm going back to uni as a 32 yo dropout. It's not too weird where I'm from, likely will not be the only one above 30 so don't worry about that.
It's been a while since I've upgraded my wardrobe so post some helpful infographs if you have any. Am a manlet and not very good looking but still doing my best. Pic unrelated (not mine) They have a lot of cheap shit. Has anyone here shopped from them? What is your experience? is a good quality and/or designer wallet worth it? i lost mine and need a replacement

Affordable nice scents
https://pastebin.com/ZJCnAZF9 I am moving into a fully furnished apartment and I would like to make the living room a little more homely - presently it is quite bland. Ideally, I would prefer to avoid hanging things on the wall as I don't want to worry about losing my damage deposit or plastering/painting to cover the holes.
My first impression is that adding an area rug to the floor and some sort of small bookcase (small because I only have 15 books) left of the TV will make the area slightly more cozy. Given I am a student, I would prefer to decorate frugally, but I am certainly open to spending some money as well.
What would you do to the space? I want to make a punk style leather jacket
any pointers? Will probably use a "vegan" leather since I don't want to ruin an actual leather jacket
pic related is inspo but I think too over done
wear do you get, make band patches? What are some casually acceptable mens wrist accessories? Does it ultimately come down to just watches? What am I supposed to do, wear a gay wristband? Is the new Carhartt Detroit jacket shit? If so what are some good alternatives?
I'm looking for something tough and with good mobility. Filson jacket looks good but are more than 3 times the price of a Carhartt. How do I become a fashionable man? What different styles should I go for as a man to get a girl of each of these different subcultures? Lmao imagine opening a clothing store and calling it THE GAP I'm 33, I want to be comfy but look presentable. Is lululemon the ultimate red pill for sporty but still grown up fits or is there something better? >tfw fell for the meme
There is no way you unironially wear this all summer, its almost middle of the summer and its hellfire hot i sweat like a pig while everyone wear shorts and chill. I don't care im gettiong shorts, this is not feasible.
>inb4 some snowniggers as you know, photoaging occurs when ultraviolet radiation from the sun CLAPS your skin cells. with that being said, you do wear UPF 50+, right anon? how do you cope with the realization that if you are not /fit/ you will never be /fa/?
