Can anyone help me (20/m) with my fashion sense? (please read for details)?
I will be honest... I am becoming very, VERY ill at ease about my appearance. I went through a phase (shortly after a breakup about 2 years ago) where I became very concerned with my appearance, and I felt much more confident during this time. I did quite well with the way I dressed to fit my style, the way my hair was fixed, the jewelry and shoes I wore all went well. It came natural to me.
Then tragedy struck in March of last year, when my cousin (and one of my best friends) was killed. I became very depressed, and I gave up on many things in life, including my appearance.
I'm finally settling into a situation where I feel better about myself, but it is being severly hindered by unhappiness about the way I look. If I look better, I will feel better. Can anyone help?
Maybe first things first: what to do with my hair. It's really thick, and it's sort of wavy to the point that if I grow it out, it curls like mad, unless I straighten it everyday, sometimes twice a day.
Thnx!
Haha, I didn't realize that I could add more...
I didn't mention that my father is a hairdresser... but he seems to clash with everything that I ever suggest about my hair, and will only do things his way. In fact, the last time I had him cut my hair (nearly 3 months ago, and the last time it was cut) I told him to cut it a little shorter, and tried to give him an idea, and he nearly buzzcut it instead. I'm contemplating cutting my own hair, or going to an amateur, simply for that choppy DIY look.
I am a poet and a musician (mostly rock/punk/emo), and I would like my style to reflect upon this, but I am having severe difficulties with determining what works for me. I don't exactly want the "stereotypical alcoholic bookworm writer" look, because I like to party, too. I feel embarrassed to bring a friend along shopping with me, especially considering that this seems like something that I should be able to do on my own, considering my creative nature... but I just don't get it.

First I'd like to say sorry for you loss. That is a hard situation to deal with. I have to suggest going to a salon. I know I know.. what guy in his right mind would go to a hairdresser.. my brother has unruley thick hair and i made him go and the hairdresser thinned his hair out and styled it.. and he upkept in pretty easily. 20 bucks and you too can have better hair :)

I'm really sorry to hear of your misfortunes. It's hard bouncing back from those things, but slowly you'll start feeling better about yourself and life.
First, I think that with thick wavy hair you should consider having it razored to give a choppy edgy kinda look. This will thin it out and make it easier to style...simply by applying some max hold styling gel and blow drying. As far as fashion, it's really more of your preference. Start small I guess and go with it.....
