Hello,
I'm totally blind, so having an accurate gauge of how I look and how to improve is... difficult, to say the least. Thought some people here might be able to provide feedback. I don't have lots of control over my eye closure, so my eyes probably look closed and/or odd in these photos. A few people have also told me that I look younger than my actual age (I'm 22). Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

You're a good looking dude.
Could definitely use a lot more edge in your style: stuff like rings, necklace, leather jacket, nice sunglasses would all help.
I feel like you will very much be certain girls type, especially as you seem to be a happy, healthy guy in your photos.
Plus you can use the line "my eyes don't work, so just imagine how good I had to get with my hands", which is definitely a panty soaker.

You look like you're somewhere between 15 and 17. Have you had your testosterone levels checked? Taking actions to make yourself look more masculine and older, such as lifting weights, would be a big help.
You mention you don't have lots of control over your eye closure. How much control, exactly? Is there enough where you could do a professional photoshoot with your eyes open, even if they weren't able to be open when you showed up on the date with the girl? If not, what about wearing a pair of stylish sunglasses?
Your haircut contributes to your boyishness. Find a decent men's hairstylist and ask them for a contemporary attractive haircut.
Excited to see your progress. I recommend starting your own log so you can keep us updated. Also, selfishly, because I have many questions about how the world of dating (or even technology use like this forum) might be navigated while blind!

166 cm/5 ft 5 in.
Something I can definitely look into as I feel I could definitely use improvement there! I regularly jump on a mini trampoline to de-stress, so my leg strength is fairly good, but I could definitely use work on my upper body (I'm a software guy in big tech so spend a lot of time at a desk, not actively lifting big objects and the like).

What you want are something modern and trendy. Wayfarer style sunglasses never really go out of style. For example.cactohelado wrote: ↑Tue Sep 20, 2022 10:28 pmHow do I look in something like these?pancakemouse wrote: ↑Tue Sep 20, 2022 1:18 pmIf not, what about wearing a pair of stylish sunglasses?
Implementing any sort of style advice all by yourself online might be tough. Do you have any knowledgeable real life friends that might be able to help you re-invent your style? Either stylish guys or any girl. How about the girl in your graduation photo?

It's hard to assess knowledge by myself... if I could, I wouldn't need them!pancakemouse wrote: ↑Wed Sep 21, 2022 1:05 amDo you have any knowledgeable real life friends that might be able to help you re-invent your style?
I often wear Aftershokz when out so that I can hear my phone's VoiceOver reading at ~650 words a minute without the voice blabbing to the outside world if I get a message or something. I like the idea of sunglasses with embedded bone conduction audio so I can drop the headphones and just worry about one piece (unless they all look terrible).
Do you think any of these models might work? (I tried on the Bose Frames a while back, pictured above).

Of those, I think the Fauna audio glasses look best. Second place goes to either the the Razer Anzu or the Bose Tenor.cactohelado wrote: ↑Wed Sep 21, 2022 2:02 amDo you think any of these models might work? (I tried on the Bose Frames a while back, pictured above).
In any case, I think you should buy one pair of normal fashionable-glasses that you would wear for photoshoots only. The technology on the smart glasses necessarily makes them look worse.

I'm also into software development, I highly recommend working out. We tend to spend a lot of time in a slouched position and suffer from forward head and shoulders posture.cactohelado wrote: ↑Tue Sep 20, 2022 10:04 pmSomething I can definitely look into as I feel I could definitely use improvement there!

A personal trainer could teach you to lift weight or you could maybe go to the gym with someone.
Same advice regarding clothing: a personal shopper or someone who specialize in relooking people could help you.
