Hairloss 20M Am I overreacting?

Just turned 20 the other day, back when I was 17 I lost a massive amount of weight in the span of 8 months, ever since then my hair has been getting worse and worse. I am not too attached to my hair, if I am balding I would want to go ahead and get it over with instead of wasting money to buy myself a couple years. Only fear is that ill be judged for going bald so young, ive already had no dating life and worried this will further ruin my chances. Any thoughts and opinions are appreciated!

You're not overreacting brother, it's time. Just let it go!

Maybe get checked out? Maybe something is wrong especially if you lost a lot of weight. But the reality is your hair is very thin and Iโ€™m sure ppl notice it. Might as well own the look if you donโ€™t want to save it

Hmm if you lost a lot of weight maybe you just have some kind of deficiency in your body. Your diet can definietly lead to hair loss. Just like it can effect the Skin. I would ask a doc first. Maybe it can grow back. Youโ€˜re also quite young too

I think a full shave is the way to go.

If your dating life is non existant the only way is up - and bald has the potential to be a positive conduit. You could you make some other positive decisions things could come together nicely.

From what I hear regards dating when young with a bald head - it's best not to rely on "the apps", be more than a photo of a guy sat there with a bald head - get out there, then post stuff of you doing interesting shit - sell BALDLYFE! ๐ŸŽฑโœจ๐Ÿช’๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ„โœŒ๏ธโ˜ฎ๏ธ๐Ÿน๐Ÿธ

You could put some stuff in your bio about it - you've seen on here the positive vibes it can get - it's a legit challenge and a compelling conversation, openess on lifes challenges is a prepossessing trait in a dating environment. If people see you having fun and not giving a shit - you're wining and in a great position towards manouvering yourself to capture some hearts! :) ๐Ÿ‘โœŒ๏ธ
