Sometimes they matter a lot because it's a matter of being presentable, especially on camera, because there's so much media attention now when it comes to skateboarding. I think that you want to have a well-rounded image. I don't think that hair or the clothes you wear make that big of a difference, but the way you carry yourself and your attitude, whether you look comfortable in your own skin.
