I've Got Dude, Babe: A Style Guide for Chastity Bono

"If Chaz Bono is serious about his new life as a real man, then the first thing he has to do is forswear all concerns for novelty, refinement, or, even in some cases, basic safety. He should head to The Original Pantry downtown, the ancient, legendary 24-hour-a-day greasy spoon that was famously rumored to be staffed by ex-cons and home of some of the nation's greasiest and most gratifying hash browns and bacon." --Josh Ozersky, Editor of The Feedbag by Citysearch

"Well, Mr. Bono. Congratulations! Change continues to come to America in 2009. Got to love that. I'm sure if he loves a great cocktail, he will no doubt find his way to Copa d'Oro in Santa Monica. Loving the drinks there, and I have definitely seen some lovely looking ladies that might catch his eye! Cocktails and lovely ladies. What more does one need?" --Martin Cole, Founder, British Bartenders and Celebrity Mixologist

"I'd recommend that he grow a beard or a light scruff, some sort of facial hair to hide the excess skin in the chin area. In fact, with the round shape of his face, I'd suggest a full beard, but a manicured one, more a 10 o'clock shadow than a 5 o'clock one. The eyebrows also need to be thickened to make them look more brooding. I think he might be a candidate for the Suge Knight look--bald with a beard--because that looks good on men with rounder heads." --Adam Dishell, Co-Owner, The Shave of Beverly Hills

"I really like Chastity's current haircut, especially the front, which has a bit more volume and movement. I would go with less highlights on the side and the back of it--that is the secret to a more male look, plus having too many highlighted chunks makes it look spotty. Keeping the cut that close to the head is the right thing to do now that she has lost some weight, too. Keep up the good work! With this short haircut we can all enjoy your beautiful face. Trust me, I know!" --Jose, Jose of Beverly Hills

"I can't imagine Chaz Bono morphing into a metrosexual. Plus a sex-change operation has got to be pretty expensive and he wouldn't want to spend lots of money on clothes. Think vintage--T-shirts and cool belts from American Rag, Crossroads or Wasteland. This way he could maintain his distinctive style." --Karen Brailsford, Senior Editor, mystyle

"I would suggest he starts watching his caloric intake. Concentrate more on foods that are high on protein. As far as training, he needs to change his routine and the way his workouts are designed. I train most of my clients at their houses and I also cook for them. When I'm not training clients at their homes, I'll go to Train West Hollywood. That place is pretty rad, it has a great atmosphere and the people are super-friendly and won't make you feel uncomfortable." --Lalo Fuentes, CSCS/LaloFitness
