At your age unless your name is Blackbeard you shouldn't have an earing and a ponytail.

Even Jon Bon Jovi cut his famous shag before he reached 40.  Men over 40 with ponytails are sad.  Girls this is a red flag waving warning you that he has not matured beyond the "I want to be a rock star" stage in life.  A ponytail and earring is like posting a sign on your body that you are desperately trying to hold onto your youth.  Oh and even worse is the "I'm mostly bald but I'm going to fool people into thinking I have hair but wearing a ponytail" man.  We can see you. 
Cut the pony tail and lose the earring.
