The bare necessity of a bald man, more than a toupee or cap, is a spunky pair of sunnies! If you belong to the tribe that religiously follows the slogan—when in doubt, go bald, then you’ve got our respect. The reason to shave your head can be anything: thinning hair, summer heat or you simply want to achieve a tough-guy image. But shaving isn’t enough, it’s a look that’s tough to manage and style that is why we’ve put together this style guide.
Take a cue from Heisenberg, Walter White’s alter ego in Breaking Bad and Spencer Strasmore from Ballers; now they’ve got some serious style. One thing that you will find common in these characters is their appropriate eyewear styling that brings together the overall clean look. Sunglasses for men come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Wondering how to pick the perfect shades to complement your bald groom? We got you covered.
How To Choose Sunglasses For Bald Men?
While choosing sunglasses for bald headed men , the first step should always be to identify the face shape. There are six defined face shapes that we would be looking at and their befitting shades, starting with…
1 Sunglasses For Bald Men With A Round Face:
Men with a round face tend to have a soft jawline with fuller cheeks.
What Frames Will Suit You?
Sticking to angular sunglasses shapes like rectangles and wayfarers would be the right choice. Why? Because frames with angles will balance out your soft lines. Think of the classic Vincent Chase Black Full Rim Rectangle Sunglasses or the contemporary John Jacobs Black Full Rim Rectangle Sunglasses as your perfect pick. The sharp corners of both frames will overhang your curvy cheeks, and ultimately bring balance and contrast to your overall look.
Shapes To Avoid?
While choosing sunglasses for a round face, keep in mind that round frames won’t give your face the definition it needs. In fact, it will draw attention to your fuller cheeks and a round chin.

2 Sunglasses For Bald Men With An Oblong Or Rectangular Face:
Men with an oblong or rectangular face flaunt a slightly broad jawline and straight silhouette making your face look longer than it is wide.
What Frames Will Suit You?
Wide shapes like rectangles with rounded corners or aviators would rightly balance your chiseled jawline and face length. Consider our super trendy Gunmetal Full Rim Rectangle Sunglasses by Vincent Chase Polarized that flaunt a slim metal body that keeps you moving a la mode. Or go for the Black Tortoise Full Rim Rectangle Sunglasses by John Jacobs that comes with sleek skull temples for a snug fit.
Shapes To Avoid?
Best to avoid tiny frames as they tend to make your face seem wider.

3 Sunglasses For Bald Men With An Oval Face:
Congratulations to oval-faced men for being universally adaptable to most frame shapes. If you have a narrowing chin with wider cheekbones then your face is 100 percent oval.
What Frame Styles Will Suit You?
There are many choices when it comes to choosing sunglasses for men with oval faces. Given you have fuller cheeks, opt for a pair of Aviators like the Gold Full Rim Aviator Sunglasses by John Jacobs to tone down the chubbiness. If your face is more skeletal or bonier like The Rock, then stick to large boxy frame styles like the Vincent Chase Polarized Golden Full Rim Square Sunglasses that come with a double bridge and slinky brown geometric lenses.
Shapes to Avoid?
Come on! You should know you have all the freedom to experiment with that versatile hunky face. All shapes look good on you!

4 Sunglasses For Bald Men With A Heart Face Shape:
Identified by a narrow chin, a heart-shaped face features a broad forehead that narrows down to the jawline. Sometimes also defined by a “widow’s peak” hairline.
What Frame Style Will Suit You?
If you have very short hair just like our heartthrob party thrower Pitbull, where the hairline is still visible, then go for the unmatchable Vincent Chase
Black Blue Full Rim Hexagonal Sunglasses. If you have defined high-cheekbones and a narrow cheek-bottom, choose nothing but the raging Gold Full Rim Hexagonal Sunglasses by John Jacobs. Minimal yet striking, one of the aviators’ best single bar updates so far. A pair of these crooked yet commanding wheels will get you going from retro to metro in no time!
Shapes To Avoid?
Wayfarers. Instead, try and stick to frames that have rounded corners to soften your angular features.

5 Sunglasses For Bald Men With An Inverted Triangle Face Shape:
Faces with a wider forehead and a pointed chin are considered as an inverted triangle-shaped face.
What Frame Style Will Suit You?
Try the edgy collection of riveted rounds or rounded hexagons. Like the Golden Full Rim Round Sunglasses by Vincent Chase or the Gunmetal Full Rim Hexagonal Sunglasses by Vincent Chase. These cooling tints can make you look totally HOT! Try ‘em.
Shapes To Avoid?
Steer clear off aviators because the teardrop lenses can clash with your pointy chin.
