Are you talking about the yellow tie? Because you're wrong about that. Yellow ties were rarely worn by serious people in that part of the 80s and, as such, were major status symbols. If you wore a yellow tie that said "I'm so powerful I can wear a tie in this girly yellow color and not even worry about being taken seriously." Red was the original power tie color and yellow became the 'I thumb my nose at power ties color' for a couple of years until everyone started wearing them and then it was (very briefly) pink ties. Edit: I'm sorry to sound so arrogant about this, but this I how it was. I agree with all you've said from an aesthetic perspective, but a yellow tie in the mid 80s was more than just a tie. We're just used to them now.
I’ve heard mixed things about the Cantu cream with some saying it causes hair loss. Do you know anything about that cause I can’t seem to find anything definitive ?
You're no using enough conditioner in your hair that is why even after all this you still seem to have some frizz. Trust me the "quarter sized amount" DOES NOT work for our thick curly hair at that length
@@spirals73 a few reasons honestly 1. Easier to manage 2. Garners less attention which can be nice at times, especially if my outfit already does that 3. It's very Italian which is my clothing style 4. Changes things up a bit Now that my hair is down to my mid back, I keep it natural and I love it, but sometimes variety is nice. But honestly your comment is big compliment so thank you
At this time of the video I was a size 34x30 length (39in waist), but I went down to a 32x30 (35in waist) that you'll see in a later video with a similar topic (titled "Why I Wear Old Man Pants") I'm 5'11" for reference and my legs are short, so my inseam length is preferably 28.5-29 inches with a rise of 11-12in inches (so the outer leg is usually around 40-41 inches). And for my taste, I have a leg opening of around 7 inches. Hope this helps, boss! Let me know if you have any more questions
Another thing that is unfortunate… most men don’t care about style. Because they equate ring fashionable to being gay…. Or feminine…. Stupid I know. Especially when the things they do praise is generally not great for society. Create videos explaining fashion history for men and WHY IT IS IMPORTANT. Perhaps someday men will look less boring and like an eternal 13 year old. Keep going friend.
The issue happened towards the end of the 20th century. Companies saw that the people were so easily to manipulate. Pay the people less, so they can’t afford quality goods, which means they have to shop for whatever is cheaper which is generally less quality. It’s a toxic cycle because the sooner something rips or breaks then the sooner the people have to replace it. You make beautiful quality goods “built to last” (a motto in the old days) even if they are more expensive, then the companies won’t make money because those pants, or whatever goods you bought will last years and years. So today, quality is something almost unrecognizable to people. People don’t even care… which is what the companies want because they can keep producing cheap crap and even lie and screw the people by saying it’s actual quality goods they are purchasing when in reality…. It isn’t. So that’s the problem. In the old days people know the difference between quality. There was pride in the work and craftsmanship that most business had. You notice that even cheaper things in the 60s and before that are better made and more beautiful. Today even houses look like they’re made of cardboard. Just think… even a thousand years ago people built clothing that has survived this long, building and bridges that have withstood centuries… our stuff today… lucky if it’ll last 50 years. And the worst part is the people are so distracted with social media goons that everyone is indifferent… until it bites us in the ass… which I’m sure will happen sooner rather than later… we are already seeing the consequences now.

I'm not someone who wears fancy clothes or things like slacks and blazers and such, but I've noticed the same decline in workwear. Finding durable clothes isn't that hard, but I've found what is hard is finding stuff that is both durable and also fits the way you want. basic dickies polycotton slacks will survive the apocalypse but I hate the way the pockets are haha.
This is great! Now how do you get the curls on the bottom to stretch more into a wave? 🤔 (Btw I’m a girl, have longer hair, similar type curl and density to your hair, and trying to find non- heat/chemical treatment ways to relax all curls into more of a wave while growing my hair out- its shoulder length at the moment). Hexagonal layered cut, love it! 😊
Just discovered your channel as I’ve started my journey into high-waisted/gurka pants. Absolutely LOVE your presentation style-reminds me of the great Alton Brown and his influential ‘Good Eats’ cooking show. Keep up the amazing work!
