Yeah, you wouldn't think it'd work, but looking at Nakmor Tyrus, you can see it can.

During the Reaper War, Tyrus took shrapnel to his cranial plate during battle. While not fatal, his brain damage left him unable to return to the front after his initial recovery. So, he moved into a field that would at least allow him to help morale, becoming a stripper in a multi-species burlesque club.

Tyrus is a character shared between myself and Themerrywolf over on FA. We started an RP a while back in which he fell in love with her turian, Kalista, in a post-Reaper War period. MerryWolf came up with the idea of a krogan character, I gave him a personality and background that's continued to grow, and we both collaborated on his look when he was finally fleshed out. In this case, she drew the base pic of Tyrus and then I added the background, shading, highlights, and other details to give all of you out there this sexy result to fawn over X3
