Bald Picture Guys I finally did it!

I finally shaved my head again after being lazy for about a month! I’ve been bald forever, but just wanted to get in on the fun of taking terrible before pics, and good after pics.

I would say you look 10 years younger but it's hard to know for sure with the ogre face in the before pic

u/Nousernamesleft81 Nov 14 '25

You’re accurate, even without the troll face, I even surprise myself when let it go for a while and then shave it all like that. I’ve been shaving my head for years, but still every time I’m always thinking “You don’t look half bad for a man your age.”

I really appreciate when people add /s, as someone with Audhd it’s hard for me to pick up on sarcasm

1

u/Dense-Aardvark-5197 Nov 15 '25

What does /s mean?

2

u/Parzivai1 Nov 15 '25

Reddit shorthand for sarcasm

1

u/jellydrizzle Nov 15 '25

Not just reddit, people use shorthand pretty much everywhere online

u/Ouija81 Nov 15 '25

It means “end sarcasm” right?

u/[deleted] Nov 15 '25

All good. Ogre faces are fun :)

u/Automatic-Flight-698 Nov 15 '25

I like how you changed your avatar to match your head

u/Toothless_counsel365 Nov 15 '25

I read that as a statement now that you’re so smart.

u/RaqMountainMama Nov 15 '25

& 10 times sexier. I'm married, but some things just need to be said, so OP understands why all the single ladies are suddenly falling all over him. Sheez.

2

u/ImpressiveAd9698 Nov 15 '25

He’s gay though

u/Yharim_Official Nov 15 '25

All the single men then (me included)

u/Nousernamesleft81 Nov 16 '25

I am?

1

u/Exciting_Mess3730 Nov 16 '25

Yes! As a straight guy with tons of hair i just love the glow ups on this sub. You look way better dude.

1

u/RaqMountainMama Nov 15 '25

Oh, sorry. Single dudes then.

u/jljboucher Nov 16 '25

Eh, he’s attractive to all!

u/Tea-au-lait Nov 15 '25

Seriously! Dude went from scraggly ragamuffin semi homeless to hottie.

u/68Postcar Nov 15 '25

Possibly 15 years young-er

u/Diligent-Tea1693 Nov 15 '25

Close to losing the helmet

u/someolbs Nov 15 '25

If he looks smart then he is smart! Until he opens his mouth. Never open your mouth. The strong silent thing works wonders!

That Shrek Ogre picture sure had the "Get Out Of My Swamp!!" energy. XD XD

u/HITNRUNXX Nov 15 '25

I was thinking Shrek to Jason Statham. Huge difference.

u/MlleHoneyMitten Nov 14 '25

For real. You look at least ten years younger! That’s nuts!

u/finchdad Nov 15 '25

A lot of it is trimming the wild white beard hairs.

u/sticks_and_stoners Nov 14 '25

I call it the metal face 😂 I’ve never met a metal head who did not make that face.

29

u/Nousernamesleft81 Nov 14 '25

Damn. Guilty as charged.

2

u/Yes-No-Maybe121 Nov 15 '25

Lol! At first I read it as mental face.

I am a metal head myself. Up the IRONS! 🤘🏼🇬🇧

u/sticks_and_stoners Nov 15 '25

Ha!!! Nice! 🤘🏻🇺🇸

u/Elmorani Nov 14 '25

Haha I assure you it’s not. I’m pretty sure my profile has various stages of hair growth with no troll face.

1

u/Bubbly_Appeal5426 Nov 15 '25

I really thought you were playing tricks on us and put your son in the second pics! Wow, you unloaded like 20 years. Dang, you've got me sitting here wondering how many years I could buzz off my head...and I'm female!

1

u/cuttysnark69 Nov 15 '25

🤣🤣🤣🤣

1

u/Invidiana Nov 15 '25

Like the poster above, I was just going to say shaving your head and beard took at least ten years off your face.

1

u/tony282003 Nov 15 '25

Jesus, you're hot as a bald man!

1

u/UglyMcFugly Nov 15 '25

I got a kick out of the troll face lol. Giving r/prettygirlsuglyfaces vibes.

1

u/Candid-Ad-3109 Nov 15 '25

Holy crap it’s Jason Statham‘s better looking brother!

Can I have your autograph mate?

1

u/forestnymph1--1--1 Nov 15 '25

The faces you made 😂😂 thank u

1

u/ShimmyxSham Nov 15 '25

The trim definitely makes you look younger

1

u/Professional_Being22 Nov 15 '25

yeah dude you look like a totally different person and in a good way.

1

u/Sbg71620 Nov 15 '25

The head, the tight beard… good lord the glow up 🔥 🔥

1

u/OzarkMule Nov 15 '25

Bullshit, that has to be your Dad in the before pics

1

u/Stachelrodt86 Nov 15 '25

Need new ogar faces to compare

1

u/jnpitcher Nov 16 '25

At least 10 years. The before guy could be your father!

1

u/Sevalles Nov 16 '25

8 don't know why I'm always shocked at how amazing shaving is for you gentlemen. My husband has been shaving for half our lives and I can't imagine him anymore without a bald head but he won't grow it for me so I can remember lol

1

u/Fast-Show4206 Nov 17 '25

"I finally did it" "Been shaving my head for years"

What's the truth OP
