In concerns of 2nd wave black metal, Norwegians are just attractive
>fashion wise
Black metal fashion is effay because they are larping
>other subgenres and countries
It depends on the genre and country, but in general metalhead fashion is based because they're either trying too hard to the point of autism, and trying to achieve something based, like looking like a vampire. Or they aren't trying at all and just wear whatever they like. Not all metalheads are chad, but when they are they fucking are. Pic rel

I'm honestly really surprised to see so many people saying positive things about metalhead fashion on this board. I knew for a long time that elements of black metal were interesting to a lot of people here but this sort of long hair, cargos, boots and band shirt or viking or whatever I never thought any of you would care about at all.

I've been a part of the local black metal scene where I live for years but I never once thought any of you would find the way a lot of these people typically dress as "good". I don't even know what to say I'm just surprised.

I guess I have noticed though that a lot of things 10 years ago which were considered "untouchable" by people outside these scenes have now become sort of an exotic fascination and there have also been musical projects that have blended genres and concepts like Ghostemane and Bones, bringing more interest into this sort of thing maybe.

That's actually very nice that you were part of the scene before the whole new age rap guys started to use elements of black metal in their music and looks. I personally like the simplicity of the looks (band shirt, black pants and boots) and the efficiency of it. Long hair and a beard can also complement the look! And in the end everyone stares at you, and wish they could pull such a simple but at the same time intimidating and "mysterious" aesthetic.

I honestly am thankful that some sound cloud rappers and streetwear designers adopted some black metal aesthetics. It brought new interest and innovation into the genre and got me more interested into hip-hop and rap. The "Trve" Black Metal scene is extremely insular. I'm hoping that as more time passes my friends will socialize themselves better and I think more "normal" people taking interest in Black Metal will be a part of that process.

When it comes to the "traditional" look. I'm not even sure if it is really about fashion as it is about tribal signalling. Most guys I know in the scene don't know anything about fashion. The boots, denim and leather really are a sort of armor as sometimes these shows get rough and fights have broken out on more than one occasion for this reason or that reason.

the face is key. good hair compliments a good face. thats why a lot of models grow their hair long and because of versatility of looks with long hair.

long hair can mimic short hair if you tie it and truck it or if you bun it you got the bun look.

long hair is cool but also has its downsides like everything. you need to take care of it like a girl does, its important. otherwise it will be greasy like Varg in that picture his face carries his greasiness there thats by far not his best look. He looks better in album promo pictures since he is styleized.

In the early days it was about looking evil and intimidating soccer moms but now its just cliche IMO. Dead from Mayhem wore his because he had Cotard Delusion(He genuinely believed he was dead and rotting) but otherwise its always been about imitating the forerunners and looking "evil".

When done right it makes a really strong impression in black and white high-contrast photos. I think it manages to trigger the brain's receptor for recognizing the most primitive, basic and most ancient sort of evil really well.

Also while maybe sometimes looking goofy in band photos, when you are at a show at night with just the right atmosphere and blood alcohol level and perhaps even some hallucinogens in your system if you're brave enough, it becomes more than just a show. It's a ritual and it's real. It just wouldn't be the same without the corpse paint.

You totally could minus the bullet belts. You'd also have to be doing something cool. Like skating, thrashing or running away from cops. You walk into a bank to make a deposit dressed like that and you'll be laughed at for being a faggot.

> 9/10 Varg Vikernes

Because metalheads have shaved or long hair that's usually complimented with a short or hardcore beard.
It make them either look manly af or like a wanna-be fem if done incorrectly.

Desert - dry heat
Tropics - humid heat
Big difference, especially when it comes to keeping hair looking good.
Not even that guy, just giving my two cents as a former longmane.
