Good morning, gentlemen, Lately there has been a lot of talk about ties and wearing ties. How ties are coming back in the fashion and style scene not because it is mandatory in the workplace but because people are looking for a change and to be set apart. Some are looking at ties as a way to up their appearance without spending a fortune, either way ties are becoming the new aesthetic for men. For me, as a kid I was made to wear one on special occasions and to church functions. As I got older and I was placed and a supervisor position I was told to wear one, but as soon as I was not required, I did not wear them. fast forward years alter I find myself wearing them not because I am told to or have too, but because I love the look of them, I love how they accentuate my clothing and brings more options to outfits. What are your thoughts on ties? Do you wear them for work, for style, because it is required for you to? Do you see more men wearing ties as a trend, fashion statement, or the fact that many are getting back to the basics of being a gentleman? Do you see more men wearing button shirts and ties becoming the norm? Share your thoughts on this new era of men's wear.

Hey guys! I wanted to ask what brand of hair color is best in terms of hair damage, and which one do most of you use? I have black wavy to curly hair, and I want some highlights. But I'm afraid because unfortunately it has become a common fact in my country that whoever starts using hair color or other hair styling products, loses their natural hair color each time, and gets all kinds of hair damage as well. Except for a very few and very lucky people.

I picked up a chocolate brown suit, does the burgundy shirt work with it? The mustardy one does as they’re in the same tonal range. Everything’s a bit darker than in the photos, but I can’t get the adjustment to look quite right so these are unedited.
