    I'm an older guy of 57 and I sympathize for young guys in their 20's early 30's who experience hair loss. When I was that age it was the 80's-90's and being a musician in those days I had to have hair down to my ass or else. Shaving your head in those days was a NO WAY GONNA HAPPEN thing. Bald Heads didn't even start being "cool" until Michael Jordan made it so. My hair didn't start getting thin until my 40's and I realized and by then It was gonna be ok to buzz it off. I'm also blessed that since I'm old now my hair is gray to almost white so I can just buzz it and not worry about the hair showing my balding pattern because the lightness of the stubble blends in with my skin tone. If I were younger with dark brown black I would definitely wet shave instead. I just want to say, this is a great channel and you're really helping guys with their anxiety. We can still look great with out the hair !

I can't ask him because he passed away a long time ago, but what did your dad do during that time period ? Did he wear a toupee ? I'm curious what bald men did back then because when you watch movies or see musicians from that time period, no one is bald.

    A word of advice for all of you young guys; I decided to shave my head in my 30s because of my thinning hair on top and receding hairline. After I got a little sun and my head wasn’t pale white, even the brothers complimented me on it. Many white guys don’t look good with a completely shaved head. My mistake was, not using sunscreen! I would purposely go out without a hat or sunscreen on hot summer days trying to get a tan and ended up with a lot of moles forming. The dermatologist said that they are mostly harmless, just caused by overexposure to the sun, but they don’t look good. So if you’re going to go for it and shave it all off, do yourself a favor and use sunscreen or wear a hat in direct sunlight.

It took an hour for me to man up and actually shave it, but I am really glad I did. I went for the buzz, but the stubble felt funny, so I shaved it with the leaf razor, feels real good and now I know that it's not the end of the world. Thanks for putting out this content.

    About 20 years ago (I was 52-3 years old) I shaved my head even though I still had a good set of hair. To my surprise, when I went to sleep that evening my head perspired so much that it was not only very uncomfortable but it also left my pillow wet with perspiration. Now, I’m going on 73 and balding from my crown and I am going to buzz my hair to the very shortest possible length. Personally, for me, shaving my head will happen again once that bald spot gets bigger and bigger. Maybe, I can hold on until I’m 80. Ha!!!

    Great video! I’ve probably watched it 3 times over the last few months. Probably as a part of some recent decisions I’ve had to make.
    After doing wet razors for over a year, I’m returning indefinitely to the clippers (zero). The irritation ain’t worth it (despite trying every trick in the book). I’m in my mid 40s, low body fat and fit with a thick beard. It’s clear the hair is going with this buzz cut, so now I call it my “idgaf-wut-u-think-about-me-going-bald-buzz-cut.” Still workshopping a better name, but you get my point.
    The buzz cut is actually more liberating than a razor shave, but I appreciate both.

    For me it depends on the weather in the winter I buzz cut because my skin doesn’t get dried out and my head stays a little warmer. In the summer I usually shave because when I sweat my skin stays moisturized and I prefer the clean look. What ever one you choose your life is so much better without the worry and the drugs . The drugs made me severely depressed and I have had to take antidepressants every since .

    The cheapest option for the closest shave is a safety razor. Better than cartridge razors but takes a bit of practice. I’ve used expensive merkur but now only use a cheap £15 Wilkinson sword model which is just as good.

    I've just looked at pictures of Statham and his hair has receded more over the years, so he currently has the horseshoe shape yet he still buzzes his hair. All he has done is allow his stubble to grow a bit longer and he still looks very presentable. Stanley Tucci and Pep Guardiola do the same. I shave my head every 2 days but am now trying the buzzed head and stubble because of this video.

      As you wet shave more the better your scalp takes to shaving. I started shaving when I was 20 because I was in the USMC and couldn't find a good barber on base. At first, the wet shave was rough but after about 6 months my head got use to it. I am 39 now and can shave without cream and never bump up.

  • @WButterTBWButter
    @WButterTBWButter 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Agree with pretty much everything and some very good points in there! I am a diffuser too, so my hairline is pretty much still there for the most. I also started with the longer buzz and slowly worked my way down to a zero. I recently switched to a foil shaver, because buzzing every 2-3 days is quite annoying since you have to press really hard to get all those hairs with the clipper teeth if they are still shortish. I also wasn't feeling comfortable anymore after like 3 days without a cut. So imo, if you are diffusing and its very light, go for a zero guard buzzcut and if its the hairline thats receding, I'd go for a fade, with like a 1 or 2 on top and a zero on the sides. very easy to learn and do once a week. And even if you mess it up, shave it all and after 10 days you'll get a new chance to do it. For bald spots or major thinning there is only one option and thats the wet razor (or a dry variant).

    I still keep my hair long for now as the thinning doesn't look bad yet. I'm still in the "trying to accept it" phase, but also looking into actual options, etc. Because I wanna be prepared. My hair loss patterns looks very similar to yours, plus high temples. I tried the bald look (completely shaven) about a year ago, but honestly it showed my hair loss even more clearly, than having it long does. Sure, it looks a little flat on top, but not like... as thin as it actually is, lol. I only plan on keeping it long for as long as it still looks good. When it starts looking bad, I'll shave it off. And I think I'd likely go for wet shave, unless I'm too lazy to maintain it smooth so often. Although I do like the smooth look the best! So I might still go for that at least occasionally. Also I've gotta learn how to shave my head with my safety razor, because I'm not about to waste loads of money on cartridge blades again, lmao. Also I'm 31, and started losing my hair at 25, so quite young.

    @DellaStreet123 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think the uneven zero all-over buzzcut can be due to the direction of one's hair growth. Just as with facial hair, many people have multi-directional hair growth on their scalp. While you can get the look that is considered "bald" by most people with hair clippers w/o blade guard, with multi-directional hair growth, you will likely get it irregular and clean-shaven is the better look, IMHO. It gets a bit easier with a #1 buzz. If you want a buzz cut that is #2 or longer, you can get it regular easily, even with hair that grows into a myriad of directions. I do use a mirror to check if I missed a spot somewhere, though.
