a bit like you, i m quite into Dressing well. what i noticed now heading towards my second stage of AM6 is an insistence on cleanliness ( showers, nails filing ect) i also became more daring in my Dressing (i do not knwo if i can relate that to AM 6 or to my Prior 90 days of BIABW). now i am often in blazers which is very unusual in the Country i live in specially at University and so People ask me if i am going on a date or so that i AM ; IN THEIR Eyes, dressed up. for me, it si just the way i want to be!
you mentined in this thread that you wear size 29 0r 30 and i have the same and what i love about it ( i do not know about Canada, i m in europe) there is always a peice or two left on sale for a ridiculously cheap Price because most other men wear something bigger:-)
for sometime i was interested in Labels, now it is more what my head tells me. i find zara stuff ( though not a big brand) really good. somehow most of their things fit me. also brands from Tkmax.
there is something going on in my hair that is very hard to believe and i do nto want anyone to believe it as yet. i am in my 30 s and so i began to have a bit of Grey White hair ( just A bit in front). two weeks ago i was at work and had this sudden idea in mind, i am having less Grey hair in my head. after two hours i went to the mirror and i checked:-) i shall add nothing now because i am still gathering evidence for it ( taking Fotos) and when the case is convincing enough i will post it. why i mentioned this is because i am wondering if teh Sub has helped you in physically changing your hair! i know you did care for it more but has the Sub done something more than just encouraging you to care for it!!!!sorry i wrote too Long, but just wanted to share this with you and thank you man for your inspirational Journal. now mind you i am not even excited that i might have less Grey hair , because i have exactly the opposite Problem, everyone thinks i am just 26 !!! and i d love to be judged a bit older:-)
Hey man,
You must be my twin! We sound so much alike. I find the same sort of sales here. Most guys are larger here, smaller sizes get marked down insanely. The downside is because most guys here are larger, most stores will only stock L, XL, XXL. The only places where I can get stuff small enough for me usually is H&M, Zara and Topman. Sometimes The Gap, i can grab something in XS that will fit me. I am not really into name brands, like you, unless we're talking sneakers (Nike, Adidas, Converse), I buy most of my boots from places like Aldo when they're having their 50% off sales.
As far as the sub changing my hair, it is very possible. After experiencing the total life shift that AOS has brought me, I think anything is possible here. I know it certainly is a different texture and colour than it was before.
