My hubby started balding at 19 just like his dad. I met him a few years later, and while I had a chuckle on our blind date cause I wasnt expecting it, it was quickly a non issue because he had such an authenticity, and before I knew it, I was drawn to him.

You do realize you just proved the point, its something he has to compensate for and you had to get past, itll always be a negative, it gave you leverage over him and he had to sit there dance around and earn you so that youll look past his baldness, some of us don’t want to feel like women are doing us a favor and we have to do all this compensating via other ways to make up for the fact we’re bald which makes her chuckle and turns her off

Im so sorry, man. I had mine was a little worse than yours at 14-15. It hurt so bad, I wanted nothing more than to have good hair, good looking hair. I tried all the things, except hair transplant (dont have the few grand for a trip to get it done). I wore long hair in a deep desire to hide it, until I just gave up last year and went shaved. It is what it is. We just had a bad roll of the dice. That said, you are a good looking gentleman without, so take solace in that.
Its definitely a painful journey I started balding around 13-14 Used to have sucha beautiful hair it was the most unique amongst my peers then but man i got it from all sides got mocked and made fun of by everyone i remember getting my hat taken off my head so they can have some laughs at me i even remember some mothers who used to compare me to their kids and how healthy they got it shit was truly painful i remember the long nights when i used to ask myself why me and why now kinda closed off from society for a while while struggling with tremendous self hate and anger i even remember the amounts of dreams i used to see of me having a nice haircut and they would seem sooo real until i wake up anyways at the end i had to accept it and make peace with it and live my life which i did am alright now but sometimes i cant help but wish if i still had my beautiful hair
Man i know this kid. He used to buy pizza at the store i worked at. Really good guy. Seems like he is dealing great with this issue. Amazing attitude and well spoken
I'm balding since 14 yo, 18 now and tommorow cutting my hair. Accepting it seems much better than worrying like all these years, thanks for this video.
@FubblerCo. Good tbh, I went for a 1cm cut and now I'm at 2cm with very visible regressed hairline and it feels natural. I don't worry as much about my hair, so I won't be going back to long.
This happened to a guy I went to high school with, he was 16/17 too and it was noticeable then. His answer was to get built and as in great shape as he could. I saw a picture of him years later and he shaved his head and was still in great shape/muscular. My heart goes out to guys that go through this at such a young age.
I still havent accepted it. This 20 yr old has it down x20xs better than me at 38. Good job and i commend you. Genuwinely looking up to a 19..20 yr old. It is what it is thanks for the plunge and honesty bro
Again..inspirational to a very common issue.i went to the drs and yaddi yadda...being a baseball player that really takes care of his build. This was a hit i couldnt run off. Agajn ur inspirational. Thnx
I didn’t accept it. I noticed it starting to happen in high school and got rogain before anybody else noticed, my parents made fun of me for using it. I’m 35 now still have a full head of hair. Only one left in my family.
Man. Ive spent years. Years! Obsessing over my damned hair. Your channel is whats edging me towards shaving, becomming fit. Its still 50/50 on what i will do. But its in the mix and am grateful
@@Baldcafe I've been watching all your videos for well over a year now. I love the community you've created. I'm not balding (yet) but even I've started shaving my hair. Not having to worry about hair is a great way to live
Hair loss is tough at any age but to be as young as this guy it must have been even harder. I’m 40 next year and my crown has started to thin and I hate it so much, I know I’ve done well to get this far but it still hurts. Well done for owning hair loss and not letting it own you. You suit that look
@@jonnydoeson5562 100% Agree with you , despite that it still hurts and it’s still hard to accept. As said I know I’ve been lucky most of my friends of the same age are either bald or very close.
When you sit, and dig deep into society dynamics' layers, you realize that everyone's appearances is all about (literally) the first impression, and after that, it's all about your body language and what comes out of your mouth. If you have worked hard enough to develop a resilient, competent brain, you can conquer any environment you step in
I had no idea people so young can lose hair like that, I appreciate you spreading awareness for others going through the same I think I'll throw a like & watch the whole video
I went Bald at 23, I thought 23 was early.... But people were telling me I'd go bald since childhood... something about my ovAl shaped head, like an egg shaped head, like lex Luthor....🤷♂️,
I feel so uplifted from watching the video. ❤I am a woman with thick long hair and in a way not a target audience for the video, but I am super glad I came across it. My "balding" is the extra 15-20 lbs I've tried to lose for years. This video gave me a needed prospective. Thank you!
For the love of baby Jesus, Kaitlyn, delete your comment. The fact that you equated this young guy's struggles with losing hair to your inability to stop eating so much junk food is pure main character syndrome. You literally came in and thought "It's going to be tough making this about me, but I don't back down from a challenge!".
I'm a woman, so I really can't relate. But, I think it's an important insight for me to see and understand the struggles of this. As a wife and mother to a son, it is something they may go through, and I'd like to be there for them and as clued up as possible with how this will affect their confidence. Must be such a tough thing to go through. But, I must say you're two very handsome men. Thank you for sharing your story with us all.
turning 19 in a month and my hairline is absolutely cooked, watching these videos and seeing that im not the only person my age dealing with this problem gives me the courage to shave my head.
Im 21 and I have seen my hair line was receding. But I figured out that was my diet since I was in a cutting phase I was avoiding the most fat intake I could and I started consuming more fat in my food and my hair started getting thicker and grew faster. Sadly my hair line did not came back but at least I stopped it. I also used Biotin shampoos and it makes your hair thicker.
@@stephenhamilton1149 bull*** t shaving head abd balding is clearly lossing , failing on the other hand guy keeping his hairs doing all. Working treatment like dutastride and fin they are real winner not shave it bro 😂
@@Cryptonitin shaving is accepting the inevitable and coming to terms with it. you can treat it if you want at the risk of side effects and always knowing that once you stop treatment, your hair is going again. The benefit of shaving is there's no worry, its done

Kudos to this young man for his honesty and strength at such a young age. He made the right decision and dodged a huge bullet by avoiding surgery. I wish I had this guy’s wisdom when I was his age. Thanks for sharing. 👌
I have had the exact same thing as him only it started when I was 16, I am 18 now, and the way he talks about girls and the stress you get when someone asks to take off your hat is insanely accurate. I really appreciate this guy and his story, it makes me feel like I am not alone thank you very much!!!
Holy this poor guy went from looking like a twelve year old kid when he was 15 years old to look like a 45 year old dad only five years later. He looks defenetly a lot younger and better again now with the short hair a really big improvement !
@Brandanmayhew I'm not even balding but stfu dawg. No one's "coping" and ur clearly commenting this bc of ur own insecurities u have going on in ur life
Since he buzzed It all off, he now looks his age. So that's the takeaway here, for anyone dealing with this. Because (yes) it made him look much older when he kept losing hair and he didn't want to let it all go. Now he's still youthful looking and I don't think he looked 45 yo, that's exaggerating! 😂
Real talk man. Honestly what a guy and just think about what it takes to actually put this out there for the benefit of all the other young guys out there struggling with it. It’s absolutely incredible
@@Baldcafewhy you not helping make to regain there hairloss otherthan making them go bald and even every fucking body knows hair full head is better then bald head
I ignored my balding until 34. Still had some hair. Got 4200 graphs and are on .25 finasteride (minimizing the side effects). Wish I had started taking it more serious when i was younger
I started balding at 18. But honestly I now see my bald head as a canvas to try on new wigs and different hairstyles that I wouldn’t have been able to with my old hair. In the end I lost something but gain something else in the process. 🤷♂️
You shave it at what point? I'm 19 and I decided to cut my hair really short but my recesses just still look super big in comparison to the middle of my hair. Should I shave it all? :(
I understand this guy, the same was happening and still with myself. I’m broken but that is that way, I can’t change. I have to accept myself. The worst part is everything has came in my 20. I shave my head and now this is me.
Love your Chanel dude. It’s such a breath of fresh air. Men being men dealing with male issues. But without pussyfooting around the problems. Without promoting or hiding the facts. Embracing the reality that bald is an option. A real option. You can and will look and be better without hair.
Why accept something that will reduce you SMV so much? Its so easy just popping a fin every 3 days. Sometimes i go a few weeks without it. I started at 19 and at 30 i still got a norwood 1.5. Have so many friends that legit are pissed off they didn't do it. Its not hard to accept going bald. But its good to have an option atleast. Sexual sides are sooo rare. But if your already bald, rock it! So much bad stuff that can happen!!
At any age it shouldn't happen and people need to stop the shave your head and be proud shit like being bald is like it's one size fits all I'm not going bald but my hair is thinning and it is stressful.
Regardless of what happens dude, you're extremely strong dude, you're more that just your hair and honestly you look really good right now!! I wish you the very best!!
Dw man baldness shouldn't get in the way of you being you. Once you get your confidence back you'll realize that's all that you really need to succeed 🙏.
I had a good friend in high school, Thom, he was receding at 15-16. His dad was a teacher there, and he was very bald on top, with bushy sides. No one ever said anything about Thom (at least not while I was around) even though his hair was ginger (in the age when gingers were picked on) and thinning. To this day (I have not seen him in person since high school, but he is quite a famous clown (of all things - he actually always wanted to be a world famous clown and now he is.) but I have seen him online and his hair is thin, almost non existent, on top, but full on the sides, and still ginger. I love that he embraced it, but I hope it wasn’t heavy in his youth, although I imagine that in silence (he never spoke about it) it was heavy. Makes me sad that people go bald, but I love that people don’t let it define them, I am sorry that others may judge you for something that is completely out of your control.
Minoxidil saved me at 18, you have to be consistant and it does take quite a while (around a year) for proper results to show, but now my hair is thicker, and actually grew back in places I lost it. My hair doesn't look perfect and never will, but at least it's better than it could have been.
Currently been using Minoxidil for about 3 weeks now. It's hard to get into the habit of applying every day but if I can get a few more years of thick hair I'll do it
MASSIVE RESPECT to the guy listening to you speak without saying a SINGLE WORD and keeping complete focus on you. Amazing qualities, he shows he has discipline unmatched by others and is very sharp.
It’s great that he has such a confident attitude! He’s a very good looking guy and I think he actually looks better with a shaved head! Actors can always wear wigs etc so I really don’t think that should hold him back professionally either. The bald head isn’t the main thing that you see when you look at him either, it’s his confidence and spirit!
My bro was balding at 16. My forehead gets bigger every year. Best thing we did was take care of ourselves, shave our heads, and NOT GIVE A SHIT. You can still get laid and get hot women without hair. And if a woman doesn't like you because of your hair, shes not the type of wonan you want. My balding has alerted me to the red flags of women way earlier. And i have been with some beautiful women. Its just hair guys. Get over it. Lift weights and eat good.
@@warnertesla8297 yes it most definitely will, and this is coming from a girl. i’ve been into some guys who definitely aren’t traditionally attractive because they were so charismatic and confident.
I always love watching these reinventing videos. I even make a playlist of my favorite shaves. I started balding at my sweet 16s but it hasn't progressed as fast as that guy in the video. But when the time comes, and I am definitely ready, I will shave my head. Bald is bold, beautiful, and ubiquitous, guys. Legit we never pay mind bald guys when we were young, only when we overfixate on our hairloss, do we panic. But such, life is so much larger than our locks
i'm a 34 year old woman with a full head of thick hair, and yet for some bizarre reason i keep getting recommended videos about dealing with being bald. it's not just here on youtube, but reddit recommended me the bald subreddit too. i don't know why i spent so long looking it at it but i was really touched how supportive all the guys were of each other about going bald LOL. i must have made my algorithm even worse watching this. this dude looks better bald than with hair, rock it!
Because of a drunk driver ramming head-on into my parent's car when I was only 10 months old, I've spent a good chunk of my life without hair. Shunt revisions took place twice a year, and my entire head was shaved both times. It made me self conscious about being bald because it not only revealed my surgical scars, but I associated it with being weak and sick. I started wearing dreadlocks at 15 because I never wanted to cut my hair. At 26 I had an operation, and less than half of my hair grew back. The hair on the top was completely gone and the sides of my head came in really thin and stopped growing after about 6 inches. It's been 7 years since my last operation, so I was able to grow my hair as long as you see in my profile pic (it's from February), but my medical problems have flared up again and I'm going back under the knife in a few weeks. I won't have anything left to grow back except for a patch on the back of my head. So, I pretty much don't have a choice anymore. I will very soon look like Frankenstein's monster and I will have nothing left to distract from it. Instead of hearing, "I like your dreads!", it'll be, "Ooh! What happened?! You poor thing!" I hate that.
Bald head looks cool af too why does society think its ugly? Sinnead O' Connor completely rocked it.. Many people with alopecia or ppl js shave their heads. It looks good. You r handsome.
We need more people like you boss. This channel is amazing. I dont hate things quickly, but I dont understand why people are wasting their whole life only about hair, but this has mainly to do with the hairloss industry as you exposed in your other video.
@@Ben_levine He said his father side has minimal male baldness. His mother's side all the men are bald. Thus makes sense his turbo balding came from the mother's side.
I was the same but I held out to 20 when I started balding big time and went from shoulder length hair to shaving my head. 30 now. A decade of baldness. Feels good man.
Good for him for embracing himself instead of constantly being insecure about something that's ultimately out of his control. That said, he looks like a teenager and simultaneously like a 45 year old twice divorced balding middle-aged man. He does not look better like this than with his hair piece. But if he feels better then that's the most important part.
Hair loss is complex, but androgenic alopecia can reliably be halted using finasteride. Side effects are relatively well understood as well as their mechanisms via blockage of 5ar-2 & 3 in higher doses. Dosing standards need to improve, ideally by dropping initial dosage to 0.25mg per day as that exerts around 75% of the effect on 5ar-1 (the enzyme responsible for male pattern balding), at a quarter the dose, with way lower side-effect risk. We know from it's use in prostate cancer treatment that higher dose is associated with greater side effects, but the maximum effect on balding stops at 1mg, and is about 90% strength at 0.5mg. Minoxidil doesn't need to be 100% understood to understand it's function, utility & limitations. We know enough to know who responds and who doesn't, and why; non-responders lack enough enzymes in their scalp to break minoxidil down into it's active form: minoxidil sulfate. If we can devise methods to make minoxidil sulfate stable, even non-responders could benefit from it, and it may even be more effective than normal minoxidil since it's more chemically active. But honestly? The biggest thing that needs to improve is information and accessibility. If people are too scared to even try preventing it, or don't know how to prevent it, they're *going* to go bald and either regret it, or learn to deal with it. Personally I'd love to see some 5ar blocker that *only* targets 5ar-1, so it would have practically zero psychological side-effects, but the likelihood of that is fairly slim since finasteride has been deemed 'good enough'/within acceptable risk.
i feel you bro. i had a really long and healthy hair until my late 20's and when i was 28 i started balding. When i was 29 i got way worse and impossible to hide and was the moment i decided to shave my hair. I cried as a i saw my hair falling on the ground. I'm 32 now and i still hate seeing myself in the mirror and i fully stopped taking pictures of myself and i always avoid being in group pics (i always volunteer to take the pic for them). Now i'm trying to grow a beard cus i think i can look good if i can grow a proper long beard. Cheers!
You probably were balding long before that I literally started balding as soon as I hit puberty by the time I was 19 it wasn’t noticeable yet to anybody but me that’s when I started using rogain parents caught me made fun of me because they didn’t think I was balding. I’m 35 now. Nobody thinks I’m balding still.
@@michaelsurratt1864exactly this I started balding at 23 but have very thick curly fine hair. So no one noticed it even when I had clearly receding temples. The hairline really bothered me but I know now that I can do damage control and just live my life😊
You know what gave me the confidence to shave my head? I looked at photos of people who shave their head from back when they had hair. Not a single one of them looked better with hair. Literally every one of them appeared more masculine and “cooler” with a shaved head. I kept looking for examples of people who looked better with hair and I just couldn’t. That gave me the confidence to shave it all off. I’ve never looked back. By the way - you look badass with your shaved head.
@@schmalzanlage_der_blutritterBruh when did you ever see a bald person who didn't have hair on the back and sides? Lol never cause those hairs are different than the ones on the top that is why transplanted hair will never fall out , everybody can get a hair transplant , now the results will be different for everybody
@@schmalzanlage_der_blutritter I mean a bald person will never have thick hair again if that is what you mean , definetly a rare case for sure , if you are familiar with Michael Van Gerwen a famous darts player he was basically full bald at like 18-19 too, he is a millionaire but never decided to get a transplant , some people don't care

@@МаксимК-я4ы Damn... Hope it's stabilized for you now. I've noticed for me that I started visibly losing hair at 22, now at 31 I've somehow stabilized with finasteride and minoxidil. Been on topical finasteride for 7 months so far, noticed improvements in the past two months.
@@wateo1782 I can't take oral Finasteride because I'm too young, so I microdose topical solution. Tried different AI bald filters, really dislike the look. I also notice improvements, but even still, I don't like my hair. I think it never will be as thick as it was before balding. The worst thing is, because It was so long ago, I don't even remember how it looked like before balding. I don't have any of my photos before balding, so I couldn't even show anything to hair transplant doc if I wanted to do a transplant...
@@МаксимК-я4ыAI can't tell the shape of your head. I know it's hard, but trust me when I say that you are likely fortunate enough to have the head shape to compliment your face. It's a journey for all. I'm not balding, but I went and gave myself a skin-close buzz cut and the main thing was overcoming the feeling of unfamiliarity. You will always be you no matter what happens to you. You will remain beautiful.
I am 28 and not balding yet, my dad is bald. It will PROBABLY happen in my 30s, about half of men start losing by 35 so I am expecting it and I am preparing for it. I will shave the moment I start losing I think.
Bro be very very grateful that you are not balding. I started balding at 23 and it completely destroyed my already low self esteem. I always told myself if I can keep my hair till 30 I will be very happy after that I don’t even care anymore
Bro, you don't know how much I identified. I started losing my hair at the age of 17! And it got worse at 19 - 20! I'm almost bald on the top and bottom part of my head. I've been using minoxidil for years, but unfortunately no new hair has grown. Many people tell me to shave it all off, but I don't want to. I plan to get a hair transplant in a few months, but I haven't found the right clinic yet, I live in Greece. Any advice on hair transplantation is welcome.
Its one thing to find some silver lining or level of acceptance to keep propelling yourself forward in life but we don't need to be delusional about it. Balding still sucks and we definitely do not look better, in my case, with a receded hairline.

This happened to a guy I went to high school with, he was 16/17 too and it was noticeable then. His answer was to get built and as in great shape as he could. I saw a picture of him years later and he shaved his head and was still in great shape/muscular. My heart goes out to guys that go through this at such a young age.

turning 19 in a month and my hairline is absolutely cooked, watching these videos and seeing that im not the only person my age dealing with this problem gives me the courage to shave my head.
Im 21 and I have seen my hair line was receding. But I figured out that was my diet since I was in a cutting phase I was avoiding the most fat intake I could and I started consuming more fat in my food and my hair started getting thicker and grew faster. Sadly my hair line did not came back but at least I stopped it. I also used Biotin shampoos and it makes your hair thicker.
same here trying to take medicine to mitigate the effect we are so cooked bro try saving for hair implants or embrace the balding

@Brandanmayhew I'm not even balding but stfu dawg. No one's "coping" and ur clearly commenting this bc of ur own insecurities u have going on in ur life
Since he buzzed It all off, he now looks his age. So that's the takeaway here, for anyone dealing with this. Because (yes) it made him look much older when he kept losing hair and he didn't want to let it all go. Now he's still youthful looking and I don't think he looked 45 yo, that's exaggerating! 😂

I had a good friend in high school, Thom, he was receding at 15-16. His dad was a teacher there, and he was very bald on top, with bushy sides. No one ever said anything about Thom (at least not while I was around) even though his hair was ginger (in the age when gingers were picked on) and thinning. To this day (I have not seen him in person since high school, but he is quite a famous clown (of all things - he actually always wanted to be a world famous clown and now he is.) but I have seen him online and his hair is thin, almost non existent, on top, but full on the sides, and still ginger. I love that he embraced it, but I hope it wasn’t heavy in his youth, although I imagine that in silence (he never spoke about it) it was heavy. Makes me sad that people go bald, but I love that people don’t let it define them, I am sorry that others may judge you for something that is completely out of your control.
Let’s hope for a cure, that is easily accessible to those who want their hair back.
Minoxidil saved me at 18, you have to be consistant and it does take quite a while (around a year) for proper results to show, but now my hair is thicker, and actually grew back in places I lost it. My hair doesn't look perfect and never will, but at least it's better than it could have been.
@erikbm1701 so many people casually say this but the biggest issue with hair transplants is having to take finasteride fuck that drug.

Damn and i thought loosing my hair at 22 was too early 😢
Shit’s brutal
im 18 and losing it, been shaving it for years and the year i want to grow it out i notice the recession, fucking brutal
Because of a drunk driver ramming head-on into my parent's car when I was only 10 months old, I've spent a good chunk of my life without hair. Shunt revisions took place twice a year, and my entire head was shaved both times. It made me self conscious about being bald because it not only revealed my surgical scars, but I associated it with being weak and sick. I started wearing dreadlocks at 15 because I never wanted to cut my hair.
At 26 I had an operation, and less than half of my hair grew back. The hair on the top was completely gone and the sides of my head came in really thin and stopped growing after about 6 inches. It's been 7 years since my last operation, so I was able to grow my hair as long as you see in my profile pic (it's from February), but my medical problems have flared up again and I'm going back under the knife in a few weeks.
I won't have anything left to grow back except for a patch on the back of my head. So, I pretty much don't have a choice anymore. I will very soon look like Frankenstein's monster and I will have nothing left to distract from it. Instead of hearing, "I like your dreads!", it'll be, "Ooh! What happened?! You poor thing!" I hate that.
Bald head looks cool af too why does society think its ugly? Sinnead O' Connor completely rocked it.. Many people with alopecia or ppl js shave their heads. It looks good. You r handsome.
We need more people like you boss. This channel is amazing. I dont hate things quickly, but I dont understand why people are wasting their whole life only about hair, but this has mainly to do with the hairloss industry as you exposed in your other video.

Good for him for embracing himself instead of constantly being insecure about something that's ultimately out of his control.

Well done mate got your confidence back 👏
You look incredibly healthier now too!!!!!
Hair loss is complex, but androgenic alopecia can reliably be halted using finasteride. Side effects are relatively well understood as well as their mechanisms via blockage of 5ar-2 & 3 in higher doses. Dosing standards need to improve, ideally by dropping initial dosage to 0.25mg per day as that exerts around 75% of the effect on 5ar-1 (the enzyme responsible for male pattern balding), at a quarter the dose, with way lower side-effect risk. We know from it's use in prostate cancer treatment that higher dose is associated with greater side effects, but the maximum effect on balding stops at 1mg, and is about 90% strength at 0.5mg.
Minoxidil doesn't need to be 100% understood to understand it's function, utility & limitations. We know enough to know who responds and who doesn't, and why; non-responders lack enough enzymes in their scalp to break minoxidil down into it's active form: minoxidil sulfate. If we can devise methods to make minoxidil sulfate stable, even non-responders could benefit from it, and it may even be more effective than normal minoxidil since it's more chemically active.
But honestly? The biggest thing that needs to improve is information and accessibility. If people are too scared to even try preventing it, or don't know how to prevent it, they're *going* to go bald and either regret it, or learn to deal with it.
Personally I'd love to see some 5ar blocker that *only* targets 5ar-1, so it would have practically zero psychological side-effects, but the likelihood of that is fairly slim since finasteride has been deemed 'good enough'/within acceptable risk.
We're reaching DHT levels that shouldn't even be possible with that hairline at that age.

i feel you bro. i had a really long and healthy hair until my late 20's and when i was 28 i started balding.

You know what gave me the confidence to shave my head? I looked at photos of people who shave their head from back when they had hair. Not a single one of them looked better with hair. Literally every one of them appeared more masculine and “cooler” with a shaved head. I kept looking for examples of people who looked better with hair and I just couldn’t.

Woah dude you look so much more handsome...I'll cast you in a movie if i ever become a director
I knew someone who started balding in middle school/freshman year of highschool. Literally never seen aggression like it.
Just how.... Kid must have been like 15 at that point...
@@wateo1782 I started balding at 13. I'm on pretty aggressive treatment, but still balding today. I'm 19 now, but I still have hair due to treatment. Really thin now though.
@@МаксимК-я4ы Damn... Hope it's stabilized for you now. I've noticed for me that I started visibly losing hair at 22, now at 31 I've somehow stabilized with finasteride and minoxidil. Been on topical finasteride for 7 months so far, noticed improvements in the past two months.
@@wateo1782 I can't take oral Finasteride because I'm too young, so I microdose topical solution. Tried different AI bald filters, really dislike the look. I also notice improvements, but even still, I don't like my hair. I think it never will be as thick as it was before balding. The worst thing is, because It was so long ago, I don't even remember how it looked like before balding. I don't have any of my photos before balding, so I couldn't even show anything to hair transplant doc if I wanted to do a transplant...
@@МаксимК-я4ыAI can't tell the shape of your head. I know it's hard, but trust me when I say that you are likely fortunate enough to have the head shape to compliment your face. It's a journey for all. I'm not balding, but I went and gave myself a skin-close buzz cut and the main thing was overcoming the feeling of unfamiliarity. You will always be you no matter what happens to you. You will remain beautiful.
I am 28 and not balding yet, my dad is bald. It will PROBABLY happen in my 30s, about half of men start losing by 35 so I am expecting it and I am preparing for it. I will shave the moment I start losing I think.
Bro be very very grateful that you are not balding. I started balding at 23 and it completely destroyed my already low self esteem. I always told myself if I can keep my hair till 30 I will be very happy after that I don’t even care anymore
so thankful my family from both my mom and dad's side dont have balding males. i guess being asian also has a factor
Bro, you don't know how much I identified. I started losing my hair at the age of 17! And it got worse at 19 - 20! I'm almost bald on the top and bottom part of my head. I've been using minoxidil for years, but unfortunately no new hair has grown. Many people tell me to shave it all off, but I don't want to. I plan to get a hair transplant in a few months, but I haven't found the right clinic yet, I live in Greece. Any advice on hair transplantation is welcome.
i know getting bald is pretty hard to accept, but you look absolut fresh now!!!
Its one thing to find some silver lining or level of acceptance to keep propelling yourself forward in life but we don't need to be delusional about it. Balding still sucks and we definitely do not look better, in my case, with a receded hairline.
