I absolutely adore people who wear braces; they are cool, represent youth, there is some kind of beauty in being in pain, and not everyone gets to wear them!
In the Far East, braces are a complete hit right now. You have got to admit, if you can look good with a cage in your mouth, you can look good in anything.
So all you youngsters (and adults) who wear braces, there's no need to be shy about your ultra coolness anymore, EVER!
