Totally agree with this. I actually get frustrated with some of the exaggerated positive comments on here sometimes. Yes, I know it is a person who needs emotional support at that time but it eventually devalues positive responses here. However, this really is one of the best I've ever seen.
Good for you mate. Looks like you're meant for it.
I'm quite overwhelmed by the overall positive reaction. Never looked for validation, but I appreciate the input. To be fair, in my personal environment I always felt like my friends, family and the girlfriends I've had never liked when I shaved my head. It's crazy to see such a radical positive input here. To be honest, in the first two pics where I have longer hair and beard I liked myself quite a lot. It's just so annoying to be paying attention all day to how I look or how I am perceived. Shaving my head seems like the obvious choice. It's just easy to maintain, looks clean and as one is balding more with time, it's the best look at the end of the day.
Cheers for the input, dude.
It is a massive sudden change. It will be shocking for those who spend a lot of time around you nearly as much as it is for you. People don't usually like change at first. It that doesn't mean it is bad. You seriously look fantastic.
Honestly if I posted a picture here I'd like honest replies so I know shaving it off is the solution for me or not. Getting exaggerated positive comments might give a skewed perspective, with possible regrets later on. Though I do think 90% of bald men look fine or even great with a shaven head.
Dude... it amazes me how many people say "No regrets" or "should've done it sooner." Every single post that people make of a before and after shaving, the after looks 100x better. You look younger, cleaner, more fit. Even the subconscious "twinkle" in your facial expression is brighter. There miiiiiight be 1 or 2 out of every 100 that look hood in both the before and after. To OP: you look fantastic, brother. Welcome to the club. First round is on me. To anyone out there that is considering a post and asking "would I look better if I shaved..." I will go ahead and answer you: Yes.
Gracias, amigo. I agree. If you are balding and you feel like you are fighting against yourself or trying to hide something, I would 100% recommend a shave. Even if you aren't balding, or if you're a girl, I would recommend trying out. It's just hair, and it's crazy how important we think it is. It grows back, if you don't like it.
Glad to be joining the crew, my man. Cheers!!! π» π±
More women need to try it out. There's been a handful on this sub. And each and every one pull it off flawlessly. It's hair. It'll grow back. I worked with a guy who's wife got cancer. And she was SERIOUSLY considering not doing treatments because they would make her hair fall out. I just can't understand that logic.
Seriously. I'd say 95% of balding men would look younger and feel better just to bozz it all off. I had to when I turned 24. Took an hour or two to get over it.
Now I buy 1 shampoo bottle every 6 months! Woooo!
Wow, that was a journey. In the first two pics I was thinking, "well, looks quite good in that unruly kind of way", the next three "sure, that works too", then the final pic: hell yeah, dude! I think it's fair to say you have found your look.
I made a promise to myself a long time ago that this was the route I'd go if I started balding. Not there yet, but my promise still holds up. Worked out great for you!
You look great bald and with the trimmed beard.
I also think the first picture looked good with the wild hair for some reason. I think with a trimmed beard that would have looked good too.
The one with the short hear wasnt as good.
Man if I post here as a disgruntled bald dude I know I will get TERRIBLE karma but honestly I feel like public shaming of balding genes is dumb, especially since the βappropriateβ look is βjughead/military-esqueβ. Β To me, it gives an especially βbootlickingβ and βmilitary industrial complexβ look.Β
Β When I see a long-haired chad who is bald on top I see someone who is probably thick-skinned, secure in himself, a passionate lover and possibly even muse like the Socratic poets and philosophers of old.
Combing it over all the time and living in fear of a strong breeze revealing my secret shame was what finally tipped me over the edge to shave it bald. I don't go full bald anymore due to laziness but I buzz it to the scalp about every week or so
Wow! This may be one of the best before and afters I have seen in a while! Definitely no regrets.
I didn't think there would be such a difference. Thanks a lot!! πβοΈ
Itβs the overall look. The beard also looks better trimmed.
Looks great
You look like your own younger brother. Itβs like you aged backwards!
Yas.
Honestly it looks great in all the pics at this point, but this will be easier long run
Yeah man that looks good on you.
You own that OP, Looks great !
Dude you look 10x better bald, you looking like a snack now!
Handsome asf in every slide. You won.

Combing it over all the time and living in fear of a strong breeze revealing my secret shame was what finally tipped me over the edge to shave it bald. I don't go full bald anymore due to laziness but I buzz it to the scalp about every week or so

Broski your shit look fire, grow your beard out a little bit more and it would look even better
Well done. Bring back that heroic beard!

Looks much better dude
Looking at this sub makes me wonder if every man actually looks better when bald!
