What kind of glass frame looks good on bald head/crop hair cut ?

I prefer my daily contact lenses over my glasses and wear them about 90% of the time. The glasses provide slightly better vision but I'm constantly cleaning them and readjusting them. With contacts I can just put them in in the morning and forget about them. Contacts are better for most physical activities, too.

I find the contacts provide better vision, particularly for reading. I can't seem to read comfortably with my current glasses at all but the contacts aren't really a problem. I don't know why; the prescription is supposed to be the same.
And you're right, contacts are better for physical activities.

I think the reason being that the contacts are right against the eye. Which is why they are clearer. Some days my eyes get so dry which I use Systane Lube drops for , and then allgery season. Style of glass's, suits, etc. they saw will go out in in 10 years come back in again. Hair has not done that LOL !
Once it goes out been only growing on becoming SLY !

This is the only reason why I'd consider wearing contacts.
In the rain, I can either cycle and my glasses get covered with drops of water. Or I can cycle without my glasses. Either way, it's no fun.

It's funny how some of the older guys here look at horn rimmed glasses and flinch, while younger men, women, and "hipsters" are looking back towards older/heavier styles of glasses.
I can say that I think personally that the right horn rimmed frames look great on a bald head...but not everyone can or should try the Ray Ban Wayfarers as precription glasses.
I myself compromised, and went with a pair of "brow line glasses" ala Malcolm X and G men and Mad Men of the 1940s, 50s, and 60s. I wanted to purchase a pair of Shurons, but instead went with the Ray Ban Clubmasters...extremely comfortable and great looking. Browline glasses are a classic style without being too pretentious.
Then again, as a writer/artist who likes plaid, that's sort of expected of me and the next generation of beat poet wannabes and liberal arts students :-p
It's a niche thing.

Some of us older guys grew up wearing those heavier horn-rim styles. Some of us are even ancient enough to remember when the lenses were actually made of glass. :o :o There was a time when there really wasn't anything else available. They weren't fashion accessories; they were a practical necessity that weren't considered to be particularly hip. So the memories attached to them generally are not fond ones. :)
