Be the metalhead that people thought metalheads were like in the 80’s and 90’s, not what they actually are
Look like you’re a street punk in an arcade beat-em-up
this rings true for a lot of different trends like gothninja, emo, rockabilly etc. dress how they are perceived in media not how they actually dress because most of the followers in any trend tend to be wackadoos
Subcultures are dead, but that’s a topic for another day
The most common stereotype is that metalheads: >stink
Bathing is non-negotiable but you already know that. We’d love to have you in fragrance general, but if there was one perfume that doesn’t break the bank and is dark and masculine, it’s Encre Noire (both regular and the Extreme version) >fat or stick figures
The best base to look good in anything is being fit >hairy
As someone who had long hair + beard for a long time, getting rid of split ends (once a month) and loose beard hairs (once a week if I do it myself) makes the world of difference. If you have a beard, go to a pro barbershop and find a shape that suits you with trial and error. >wear ill-fitting clothes
What do you wear right now?
Good suggestion, Eddiecore looks good as a style normies like because of Stranger Things, but don’t necessarily want to emulate
im involved in the powerviolence, hardcore, punk, and metal scene in my area. keep yourself groomed and dress in clothes that fit. i wear all black. leather jacket with spikes sometimes, leather jacket without spikes. but always black. except my punk vest. dont wear that often anymore.
sometimes grey jeans. just dont wear cargo shorts or cargo pants. wear cheap black chinos.
picrel is me last night
wear clothes your size
be clean
don’t be overweight and have healthy hair, also get some gains
Not base your identity around your taste in music and dress like a regular person?
This, I probably listen to more metal than OP but you couldn’t tell
Wow anon you so cool

Dont be fat. Thats all.
You can enjoy metal without making it your whole personality
>Being muscular is the key to turning metal graphic tees/fashion from cringe to kino
agree or disagree?
If you think in terms of ‘cringe or kino’ or you are a redditor and should be euthanized
Kino originated on LULZ, don’t know why you’d associate it with reddit unless you frequent it more than here.
>Newgay doesn’t know that kino came from /tv/ over a decade ago
You have to go back

Don’t be fat and dress like metal Chad’s instead of a metal incel.
