Becoming the Fashion Police is always a hard decision, or at least it should be. For example, it’s easy for me to think that some dude walking down the street wearing mutton chops on his puss, a shiny Bedazzler’d shirt with billowing sleeves and Daisy Dukes is practically screaming out for someone to shake him out of his insanity and bring him back to our world where we know better.

Just to get this out of the way right now: What you wear doesn’t make you gay. Being gay makes you gay. If you aren’t gay, you aren’t gay. I know perfectly well that there are probably among the readers a few men who have that strong aversion to even a whiff of being mistaken for liking the cut of another man’s jib. This is all about liking yourself better, not about liking anyone else.

You want to look like you. So it’s of utmost importance when you’re considering clothing to look at yourself in the mirror and think, “Do I like how I look in this?” Don’t think about how Brad Pitt will look in it. Brad Pitt looks good caked in shit. All that matters is how you look in it, and how comfortable you feel in it, and whether it will fit into your existing wardrobe (“Does this go with anything?”).

Hair I have noticed, for some, has an emotional attachment. Losing your hair can cause dramatic depression and all sorts of weird personality disorders, and the phrase “having a bad hair day,” resonates for anyone who’s had one.

But rather than try to deflect that unaccountable reaction, let’s embrace it for the next half-hour or so and pretend that, yes, your hair is the most important thing in the world.

You’re responsible for taking care of your muscle and bone and vital organs, I’m just going to advise you regarding the daily regimen for the biggest organ of all — and no, not that. Someone certainly has an inflated sense of self, doesn’t one? I’m talking your skin, not your skinflute. Please.

Here’s the thing—you need to take care of your face. It’s not going to take care of itself. And another thing… your skin. What are you doing to your skin? And let’s not even get started on what a mess your hair is.
