Professionally, Dating-wise, and In general.
For me, it’s more of a hair migration. Not a fan, but at my age, things are happening that I’m not exactly thrilled about. Either accept it as part of life or do something about it if it really bothers you. Bald blokes are in these days, so what’s the big deal?
One thing I can’t stress enough. never, under any circumstances, go for a combover. No one in history has ever looked at a man with a combover and not noticed. Ever.
Professionally: No change whatsoever.
Dating-wise: Still exactly the same.
In general: I just spend a lot less on shampoo.
It hasn’t. Not exactly fun, but it’s part of life, so I don’t waste time worrying about it. My favourite haircut doesn’t quite work anymore, but I’ve got a decent barber who can sort something out. And when the time comes, I’ll just keep it very short or shave it off.
Hasn’t in the slightest. Why do you ask?
It hasn’t made a difference to me, and I’ve always worked in a professional environment. If anything, I’ve found most women love it.
I knew I was going to be bald by the time I was 18 or 19, so I just embraced it and shaved it all off. By 27, I even got a tattoo on the back of my head.
I started losing hair at the crown a few years back. Having black hair made it pretty obvious. Tried the backwards combover for a while, but it got ridiculous at some point, so I’ve been shaving it all off for over a year now.
Professionally? No change.
Dating-wise? Probably ruled myself out for a fair few women who aren’t into bald guys, but that’s just how it goes.
I keep my hair buzzed short. Not cueball, more Jason Statham. Not usually a big deal, and I save a fortune on haircuts, but every now and then, I do miss the option of a proper trim.
Once had a woman on Tinder, a neo-Nazi no less, ask if my haircut was political. That was a new one.
It hasn’t happened because, well, it hasn’t happened. I’m only 17, so if I do end up bald one day, there’s plenty of time before that becomes a reality. If it does, I doubt it’ll change much.
Would it be a bit of a bummer? Sure. I take pride in my long curly hair, and people seem to like it. But no point moaning about what can’t be helped. If it comes to it, grow a beard (if you can) and own the look.
Once I accepted it and shaved it all off, I felt so much better. No more stressing over hair loss, just a proper sense of relief. I was 20 or 21 at the time.
Professionally, nothing much changed.
Dating-wise, I lacked confidence at first, but once I accepted it, I felt more like myself than ever.
One thing hair loss did was make me stronger and a better person.
For anyone dealing with hair loss in their 20s, don’t let it affect or change your life. Promise you, you’ll thank yourself later.
Professionally, some people had a laugh when they first saw me bald, but nothing serious.
Dating-wise, it was rough until I shaved my head. Suddenly, a lot of women I dated thought I looked hot.
I did not let it affect my life.
It did affect my dating at first. Met plenty of women who didn’t want a bald bloke like me. some laughed, some ghosted me after the first meeting.
But I learned to be more confident and love myself more than ever. Still single at 27, but I reckon the right person will turn up when the time’s right.
Love your confidence, mate. Hope you find her soon.
I’ve learned to live with more confidence than before. Now, I couldn’t care less what people think, so long as I’m living a good life, nothing else matters.
I have too much to deal with for hair loss to be something that bothers me.
Nothing changed, I just look even more handsome with the bald look, lol.
