it all depends on how the person themselves feels about the appearance of the glasses. Face/jaw shape has a lot to do with it for many. if someone liked a certain style on me, id look in the mirror while (looking for frames after getting a new prescription) wearing them, but I would strongly disagree. Just examples. However, I do agree with you there.
+MinusN Oh really? You need 700 dollars to make a metal frame? Most of it is just marketing hype. I saw a documentary and found out most of it is owned or produced by one company. Gucci, Ray bans, Dolce Gabana, etc are produced by one and isn't even designed by those brands. Since the company has a monopoly, it can set whatever price it wants.
Always has great vision all my life and now, 31 going on 32, my sight is starting to fade. More so in my right eye and it’s becoming more noticeable lately. Making an eye appointment in two week to get a prescription and I’m so overwhelmed by the decision on frames. Your video gave me a little perspective into what to expect. Thanks. And wish me luck lol
dooovde I think he means symmetrical in the sense that the top frame of the glasses is similar to the bottom, it maintains the overall shape instead of a structured pair with rounded parts.
Bottom line: If you stay in-shape & have a thin face with a decent jawline, you should be able to pull off all the cool, high quality brands like Ray Ban & Oakley.
Fountain Pew u don't know, nobody cares, being kinda homophobic was more like 10 years ago, and just saying that demonstrates that you're insecure and probably the gay one here
My eyes are super sensitive to sunlight, so I need some glasses. Thanks for the walk through. Luckily I am heart/diamond shaped, so I can pull off the ones I want. Always wondered what oval glasses would look like, I don't see them too often, but always liked them.
OH MY GOSH, ALpha! Thank you so much for doing a video on glasses! I have to wear glasses and was freaking out that i was only limited to Erkel style glasses! These are badass! Much Love- from Cali!
That's a cheap statement. I have glasses that are $3,000, and they were pretty cheap for that price. I cant believe you're so appalled by the $700. What do you live in? A closet?
Just came here to get advice and it happened that I'm an oval face... was wondering what glasses would fit me best. ( since I just bought a new pair ) then the second pair he showed for oval look exactly like mine!! yay! watching alpha m for the past few years payed off!
I just bought my first pair. My face/head is so small that Costco only had 2 pair that fit me. At Vista Optical they wanted between $300 and $500, at Costco I paid $195. Thanks for the rad vid.
I really dislike how nowadays there are mostly only huge glasses. I think I only look good with the ones without the frames that go all around the lenses, just on top and with as narrow lenses as possible, but those are so damn hard to find nowadays. Wherever you look, they only sell those humongous glasses that you could easily wear as facial protection for doing metalworks or heavy-duty chemistry.
Wouldnt be surprised to run into one of those those in an eyewear shop nowadays, tbh. But yeah, not sure what club masters are, admittedly, but had a pair of Oakley slim sunglasses that were half-rimmed and looked amazing but unfortunately lost them a while ago. Now I'm rocking a pair of Maui Jim Makaha sunglasses and though they look good, they're don't look as good as the previous ones I lost. Also worried about tons of reviews saying they're really fragile and tend to break for no reason,
alpha m. Nice video! But how about the well-known aviator style sunglasses? I really like them, they are usually pretty big, but... Seems appropriate for what type of face? :)
YourTrulyFriend Aviators are a great fir for square faces. The stronger your face features are, the bigger you should go for. For delicate features, it is recommended to go for a small to medium sized frame.
Aron, your videos are grate. Thanks for everything. I have one doubt, though. I am between two Ray-Ban frames. The RB 5287 2000 (black piano) and the RB 5287 2012 (tortoise). My fear is that the tortoise one is too informal. But it is kind of different, which is nice. What do you think? Keep going with the great work, you are awesome :D
Dude.. I gotta say... It's not been very long that I've been watching your videos... But I love it.. You teach people how to look great and also feel great about themselves.. And that's just great! Keep it up brother! 😁👍
Had no idea I was a diamond but i fit the criteria!! I love your description of it btw, "We can wear pretty much anything". Did the happy dance when you said that haha.
My glasses are just €40, but everyone thinks they're ugly. It's because the bridge of my nose is very broad and high and my face is very narrow... there are no good glasses for me. at least not within my budget.
I have a square face and look great with rectangular/square glasses. This is bs. Just look at Henry Cavill's Superman, square face, square glasses, and he looks great.
I have a square face and I'd like to firmly disagree, I look disgusting with rectangular glasses, after changing into a rounder shape, I've realized just how much better my (already ugly) face looks, I don't look like an old guy at his 50's anymore.
I'm in somewhat of a nice shape overall but I cant lose my f in round face lol It just don't want to leave. Anyway, I wear glasses exactly as you said so I was happy to see that in your video. Thank you
Man You Are Awesome !! I really admire you, I have been following you since the time you started , you are adding more and more value, Keep It Up. ALL THE BEST
I didnt got tricked i knew when the video will end. So dont tryinna trick us all thinking that we are dumb as much as you P.s:sorry im in a really bad mood just got cheated while im on my period..+ my mom is having some disease and she is admitted in the hospital its been weeks. I cant handle my anxiety anymore
It's the National Healthcare Service. If you get seriously hurt then you don't have to pay for the doctors yourself, instead the government pays for it. This ends up branching out into things like glasses or hearing aids also.
***** Actually, eyes can get better. My first glasses for my right eye where -3.00 strong, but know I only need glasses of -2.25. (around 6 years of difference)
Benedek Verburg Maybe because you were nearsighted as a child (the muscles around your eye were too tight) creating good vision up close but bad for far away. As people get older their muslces relax and in your case the muslces relaxed and the strength of your glasses decreased. For far sighted people...well we're shit out of luck and the muslces only get worse. But to be clear this isn't that your eye got better.
Holy shit thank you so much! I didn't realize that website actually can add the PRESCRIPTION onto your lenses :O! That actually may be very useful for me and my family cause we are blind af and our insurance won't cover my dad's lenses that are like 700 dollars (not even with the frames). I want to try it out :D
LASIK was the best decision I've ever made. I am deathly afraid of surgery, however I maned up and did it and it felt like it was over in 2 minutes. Easy, pain free and liberating.
@Matthew Delgado Probably the worse decision you have made, you're eyes will get dryer in the long term and your vision will change again. Waste of thousands of dollars.
I've purchased a Carrera eyewear,it was looking great when I was trying it but now I don't want to wear it though it's costly but it's of large size and medium suits on my face and I really need a help.😐 Thank you☮️
I had to go pick some out yeaterday and im hoping i picked some good frames for my face shape. According to the ladies who work there they said i did and sounded sincere so 👍👍

you would make such a good teacher
That’s what I was thinking I felt like my teacher was talking to me 😂
"They're symmetrical", yeah, like every single pair of glasses available to buy unless you're wearing something like Elton John has!
dooovde I think he means symmetrical in the sense that the top frame of the glasses is similar to the bottom, it maintains the overall shape instead of a structured pair with rounded parts.
I think you missed the point a bit but I'll still like, kinda funnE
He isn't talking about lateral symmetry
🤦
Bottom line:
If you stay in-shape & have a thin face with a decent jawline, you should be able to pull off all the cool, high quality brands like Ray Ban & Oakley.

My face is shaped like a sausage
I have never been able to choose a good pair of glasses until I saw this after nearly 20 years of wearing them. Thank you

Your hey with big glasses at 5:18 to 5:25 is amazing ,i like it the most .HEY😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Just came here to get advice and it happened that I'm an oval face... was wondering what glasses would fit me best. ( since I just bought a new pair ) then the second pair he showed for oval look exactly like mine!! yay! watching alpha m for the past few years payed off!
$700??? hell no
💀💀💀
mine are $600
$600... 😲😵
Mine were $300.
Mine are a thousand dollars (and everyone in my 5-person family has at least one thousand dollar pair of glasses as well)
Why are your glasses so expensive?
i'm about to buy my first prescription. This video was very helpful.
2:38 Is when he starts explaining which glasses best fits for your face :)
I hadn't really thought about it but this has helped me out a lot.
I just got glasses and cant tell if im a oval or heart/ diamond, which one do you think i should go for
I just bought my first pair. My face/head is so small that Costco only had 2 pair that fit me. At Vista Optical they wanted between $300 and $500, at Costco I paid $195. Thanks for the rad vid.

Pants-off Dance-off yeah
I know what you mean. Even sunglasses are a nightmare...they're so gigantic.
Completely agree. I'm trying to buy round glasses, but they're fucking huge.
Very helpful video, made choosing my pair of glasses a lot easier. Thanks!
I'm not sure how to word this, but could you make a video on how to conceal our overweight areas in clothes. Thanks.
his laugh at 3:31 is killing me :D OMG super cool
R there same rules for sunglasses also??
Mandeep Baweja Yes
Alpha replied me first time 😃👍

YourTrulyFriend Hey! Oval, Square and Heart shaped usually work well with aviators. But make sure to choose a good size for the frame.
Firstly you by no means have a diamond shaped face. Heart all the way. Secondly, all the frames including the oversized rounded ones looked bangin'.
Aron, your videos are grate. Thanks for everything. I have one doubt, though. I am between two Ray-Ban frames. The RB 5287 2000 (black piano) and the RB 5287 2012 (tortoise). My fear is that the tortoise one is too informal. But it is kind of different, which is nice. What do you think? Keep going with the great work, you are awesome :D
5 months ago the haircut and now the glasses , I found you again . thanks for the hints !
The way you talk looks like you're designer.... Elements and principles of design, by recalling them in your talk :)
I was literately going to get new glasses this week. Your videos always have such perfect timing!
alpha - can you tell us where to get non-prescription glasses for people who wear them just trying to be cool? ;) Thank you.
step one: dont wear glasses if you don't need them
John Chin Andrew has it right
any optician...even if you have perfect vision, they'll still try to sell you a pair
Look online for a pair of glasses if you want the damned things. They may not fit though
Dude.. I gotta say... It's not been very long that I've been watching your videos... But I love it.. You teach people how to look great and also feel great about themselves.. And that's just great! Keep it up brother! 😁👍
turns out ray bans make a pair of sunglasses that are called "justins" which is my name :) and they fit perfectly
Meant to be
Possibly the best, most instructive video you've ever done! That was Great!!!

Its an ocular freckle. They can potentially become cancerous i believe

Can I buy the glasses if I live in Canada??
RadyoMusic Sure, we ship many pairs of glasses every day to Canada. But we do advise you to check custom tax terms for your location.
No shit.
RadyoMusic No. Canadians are not allowed to wear glasses. They can only use two pieces of cut out cardboard with holes through them. >_>
Almighty Loaf ***** Chrono Because I should assume that a company named Glasses USA ships worldwide...Oh Silly me...
RadyoMusic That's alright We forgive you.
Didn't like you on Sharktank, whatsoever.
But I appreciate the knowledge and integrity in your videos. Really cool, dude. Buy you a beer anytime.
So this is GlassesUSA... Is there anything like this for the UK? Or does this company ship to the UK?
MingusTale Yes - we ship worldwide.
GlassesUSA Thanks for the super speedy reply. Great service. I'm glad you ship worldwide because I really like you selectin of glasses! Thanks.

My glasses were free... I live in the U.K and we have the NHS.
TheoreticalGenius yep.
TheoreticalGenius what is NHS?
It's the National Healthcare Service. If you get seriously hurt then you don't have to pay for the doctors yourself, instead the government pays for it. This ends up branching out into things like glasses or hearing aids also.
TheoreticalGenius wow that's nice here in America if you get seriously hurt you still have to pay. :\
abexvii You are paying with NHS just in a different not so obvious way.
Lol, three days ago I though that it would be nice if you could upload a video with this topic, thanks alpha
Just use contacts, you can avoid the nerdy & hipster look then
On a side note I find women with glasses hot, I like the secretary look.
Ross Even if you have contacts you need to have pair of glasses as a back up.
I had glasses when I was younger & I didn't wear them because I cared what others thought then my eyes got better & never had to have them again
Ross Ugh. I cant put in contacts. It just feels wrong to have something on my eye.
***** Actually, eyes can get better. My first glasses for my right eye where -3.00 strong, but know I only need glasses of -2.25. (around 6 years of difference)
Benedek Verburg Maybe because you were nearsighted as a child (the muscles around your eye were too tight) creating good vision up close but bad for far away. As people get older their muslces relax and in your case the muslces relaxed and the strength of your glasses decreased. For far sighted people...well we're shit out of luck and the muslces only get worse. But to be clear this isn't that your eye got better.
Tbh you look good in all those glasses

Well I just had LASIK to avoid wearing glasses. 👌🏽
How does it feel?
I had PRK done in 2008.
LASIK was the best decision I've ever made. I am deathly afraid of surgery, however I maned up and did it and it felt like it was over in 2 minutes. Easy, pain free and liberating.
I want to do it but I've heard that some people have problems even after.. I do t want dry eyes
@Matthew Delgado Probably the worse decision you have made, you're eyes will get dryer in the long term and your vision will change again. Waste of thousands of dollars.
