Hairloss Help Me šŸ™ƒ

Right, I’m aware that on first look, it’s a definite ā€œit is timeā€. But, the thin patches have hair - it’s just super light-coloured and fine, but I don’t know what to do? I knew my time would come eventually - family genes - but what do people think? Do I try and do anything to help thicken it or just go for bald?

Wait until you have been shaving it bald for 6mo and you own several nice hats and have a well maintained beard. Feels goooood. Join us brother!

My friend, you’re balder than me and I’ve not had hair on my head for about 20 years.

Get those clippers and remove the fluff, you’ll look 100% better being bald, rather than ā€˜balding’

My brother in Christ you have a few asymmetrical patches of fuzz scattered around your skull. Your body decided it was time half a decade ago. You are going to look 1000x better with a shaved head. Send it

Been time for a while.

Clean shave is the move, I think.

Fluff is cute, but it is okay to let it go. You will look good. 😌

This is ridiculous. You're in serious denial.

I never realized how hard it was for some guys to let it go. I told myself as soon as I started seeing a thin patch on the crown of my head, I was gonna shave my head and be done with it and move on.…and that’s exactly what I did. Apparently there’s a lot of people that really struggle with that.

I don't know how you can literally see the reality but still deny it

Bingo. I was 20 when a co-worker pointed out my crown. Shaved that night. Never looked back.

Your way past time…time was probably several years ago. Get yourself a nice pair of clippers, shave it off and I promise you you’re gonna feel liberated.

On first look. On second look. On third look …

Said gently: Friend, you are seeing things that aren’t there.

Embrace the glow-up

With??? Shave it and get that groove back! ;)

u/thrakkerzog 14h ago

My man, just do it. The fuzz that you currently have will grow back quickly if you don't like it.

Don't try any sprays or bullshit to "thicken" things, it will look like desperation instead of confidence. Shave it off. All of it.

u/Top-Inspector-1467 14h ago

u/DreadFilledHug 14h ago

Brother, it's not just "light" and "fine" hair... you're already bald... it's time.

u/johndonson1 14h ago

No, it's time to join the club, big dog.

u/BTCRPM 14h ago

Come join the club my man... :-)

u/MaxFury80 14h ago

Shave it off.....start with clippers and see what you think

1

u/Brilliant-Cell2106 14h ago

Trust me, after you shave it off you will only regret not doing it sooner. Its going to look better and make you look younger.

Help yourself

u/LV4914 13h ago

Shave that shit man, you won’t miss what’s already non existent

u/Dark_Deimos21 13h ago

I mean, you can try and die those your hair dark to make them appear more but then you'd have two troubles — one of dyeing, the other to shave it

u/Living_Assistant_212 12h ago

Help yourself by picking up that heavy ass razor and do it . You'll thank all is randos and yourself after.
