How to pull off the aesthetic 

There are two parts to successfully pulling off the Granola Boy aesthetic. The first, and the hardest to attain, is having the right vibe, one person said on TikTok. 

In terms of hairstyle, Granola Boys typically have darker, curlier hair, which is often swept back under a cap. A mustache is a huge positive, but not essential.�
