Still have the slightly receded hairline, but I can live with that.

These MEN have 100% of my respect. They've got tonnes of confidence. Those young guys, early 20s, buzzing their hair.... these guys have balls bigger than anyone. And every single one of them went up 10 points on the handsome scale. People!!!! Hair is great. But it's only one component in your attractiveness. Ditch the hair. Build some muscle. Fix your smile. Be yourself
Probably one of the best videos you’ve made! You’ve inspired so many men to not get hung up on their hair and shave it off. It’s great to see so many different guys from around the world embracing hair loss and not letting it diminish their masculinity.
I will never understand why straight men feel like losing hair is a sign of femininity. Like losing hair is a sign of high testosterone, why is having long flowing pretty hair masculine? It doesn't make sense
This is epic. I was losing my hair between 18 and 22. Shaved it off a long time ago and never looked back. I was just smiling watching these guys literally shave away their worries and insecurity. Superb!
I can’t stress enough how much your videos have helped me brother, I feel like I’m in ur debt. I started balding at 18 I’m 21 now and finally decided to just send it and shave it all and I absolutely love it! Before the shave I spent 3 years of my life constantly stressing, being insecure and anxious especially when it’s windy because I always felt like people were looking at my hairline and laughing at me behind my back. It made relationships particularly stressful as I was always planning how I was gonna hide my hair from my girl😂 I know it might seem a little ridiculous but you are changing lives man, God bless🙏🏼

I had no idea how painful this is for guys because I've always thought if guys start to go bald they can always shave their heads and look amazing. As a female, I shaved my head a couple summers ago on vacation because of my male pattern balding that controlled my life for seven years. I continue to shave my head, and even though in the winter I usually wear wigs for warmth and to have a different look, I always love rocking the bald head in the warm months... especially in the gym. An interesting point is that I'm constantly told I look so much more beautiful bald! FANTASTIC CHANNEL! Hopefully men AND women will find courage here! Cheers!
I wish I had filmed my first shave, the immediate happiness you see in these men as they realize they don't have to live with their insecurity anymore is always so heartwarming. Thank you baldcafe for encouraging me to rip the bandaid off and transforming how I feel about my image.
Well boys, I finally did it. I finally went bald. I'm a nearly 36 year old man that experienced rapid hair-loss in the past five years. I still wanted to hope that I had a few more years of hair. Like many, my hair was becoming a real burden and confidence killer. I was very afraid of shaving my head but knew it was in my near future. I didn't plan it, but today I had enough and decided to shave it all. I didn't expect it to be such a relief and confidence booster. Like a huge weight has been lifted from me.
Good job bro , same here I just turned 30 been balding for like 3 years gradually , this last year has gotten worse tho i know in the future I’ll be rockin the bald look with mustache and beard , it’s all good tho man it’s just a apart of life doesn’t make us any less manly or anything like that
Congrats! And don’t worry too much on what you think women are thinking about bald guys. It takes some getting used to, when guys finally shave their hair, but the end result is actually more confidence, because you own the look and essentially, you own who you really are.
Every guy looked 10x better! I can't imagine the stress each of these fellas felt, and I am hoping they all experienced relief and freedom from finally letting it go!
This channel helped me a lot back in 2021 when I shaved my head. It took me over a year to accept. I also had to surround myself with more supportive people.
Respect for that video. My brother is 12 years older than me and found going bald in his 20's pretty traumatic. He tried all sorts of "remedies" back in the 1990's before resorting to a hat for years. So I knew from young that I was going to go bald young too. So I always had my hair cut low and as a Black man I carried it off for a long time. But by late 20's it was ridiculous trying to blend it in. Despite my brother's experience to learn from it wasn't easy. I even went to a Dr who was happy to refer me to a clinic where I would have taken medication for the rest of my life to prevent a process that's completely natural. That's why I think this video is so cool. You don't shy away from the fact that hair loss can be a very distressing emotional issue for guys. But emphasize just how positive an impact embracing what nature has given you is. There's a LOT that men need to open up about and going bald is one big step. Thank you
I'm 28. Six months ago I decided to shave my head and your videos gave that confidence. Never been happier, I don't have to stress about how it looks anymore. Thank you very much!!
@@TheAbandonedAccount7 wtf! he will never look fake, what a nonsense lol😆 Its not a wig or something like that , its will be your hair...He 4 sure would be much confident with his hair
I feel every single emotion these guys felt but I think this video has given me the push I needed to proceed into a new chapter in my life and letting go of my hair.
started shaving my head in 2020 at 23 after years of being insecure about my hair. it is the best decision ive ever made in regards to my appearance. instantly made me feel more authentic and confident
25 and started shaving my head last summer after waking up one morning and having horrible bed hair. It bothered me so much that instead of combing I just grabbed my clippers and razor and went completely bald. I should have done that sooner, I like how it looks on me and it boosts my confidence.

Shaved mine new years eve 2023 thought it is now or never. Went from long hair to induction cut. Best thing I ever did. All the feelings these guys had I now realize it is universal. Glad I found your channel much respect to you
I am so proud of everyone in this compilation and for all those all over the world that have joined the bald brotherhood. I have been shaving my head for about 20 years now and I have never regretted it.
Happy you encouraged and ultimately inspired these men to do this. They ALL look SO much better. Can’t imagine the range of emotions but glad to see they all ended up happier with themselves and their appearance.
Im 19,ive been balding since i was 16,my hairline is as good as gone now and i have a v shaped hairline which i constantly shave. People have always given me a hard time for it as if I've comitted a crime but i understand thats just their blatant ignorance,this channel has really helped me accept my baldness,it doesn't bother me anymore,sure people give me weird looks when im passing on the streets while some even laugh at me and ridicule me but thats just who they are,it feels good to not be alone in this! Thank u mate❤ ill be rocking my bald look 😎😎😎
This video is so reassuring man. I haven't really lost enough of my hair to do this yet. But it's so reassuring to see all these people coming out better. Pretty wholesome as well.
Going on 20 years since I first started rocking a buzz cut when my hair started to thin at age 23…. and I’ve never looked back. Thank you for continuing to empower so many. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
So I'm receding on the corners of my hairline and was worrying about how to try to maintain it for as long as possible. This great video has shown me that I am overly exaggerating my receding but also when my time comes to just accept it and rock it. All these fellas look and feel more confident instantly or at least that's my perception while watching 👌
Loved watching all these guys smiling at the end of them just buzzing it off,this channel has helped me and thousands of guys that it’s ok to bald well done band of baldy brothers👍
This was good to see - I took the dive 7 years ago in my mid 20s after stressing about it constantly. If I ever have doubts I did the right thing, I go back to videos like this and take note that every single guy looks 100% better after the shave.
I’m 27 and have been dealing with a receding hairline/thinning hair for about a year and a half now. I thought about shaving my head on New Year’s Eve last night and start the year off with a new look but guess what? I failed to muster up the courage to go for it lol. Probably just because I still have a lot of hair left. It’s not very obvious yet. I guess I’m gonna wait till it is. I guess when you’re dealing with hair loss, there’s a right time to go for the head shave and for me, it’s not now. Every guy on this channel who shaved his head and shared his story is a total badass.
Your time will come when it feels right man. And honestly knowing that you have the power to take that step any time you want… I hope it relaxes you enough to really give less of a shiii about the fading hair and to not worry or have it impact you at all. Then when you fancy the change go for it. It’s one hell of a dopamine releasing serotonin boost
I’m exactly in the same situation and 28 yo. Still got enough hair to keep it but I know for sure that it will get worse. Now seeing this kind of video enables me to have a peaceful mind about this.
Did mine 1 year ago this January with a buzz cut 0. By the time spring comes round you will start to get a tan, make sure to use moisturiser with spf protection! Started working on fitness getting in better shape also, do it for yourself & no one else.
I love this video, it's so wholesome and heartwarming. Every guy that shaved their head looked better afterwards. You can really tell the weight was lifted from every single one of them. I really hope this gives guys currently struggling with balding the confidence to just take the step and move into the next phase of their life!
When you decide to try going bald by choice, try some partial shave options. I think a “potty rim would be fun to try for awhile (though possibly not in public)! I tried a Mohawk when I first buzzed it and absolutely loved it. I kept it for a little while but then finished the buzz and shaved and have been bald ever since. Seems like most of these men worried that their scalp would be weird or ugly. I didn’t think much about it but now I do notice when rubbing it (irresistible!), it is smooth but somewhat irregular. But it looks pretty much fine, at least to me, like 😊! No way I will go back to having head hair! Thanks for this compilation. I’ve been a subscriber for several years and tend to binge with baldcafe when I click on one. I know you are inspiring a lot of men. ❤
Yeah if you have normal skull shape, don't cling into your dying hair. Horseshoe is the worst. Bald looks younger than a horseshoe, and harder, which is a masculine trait. If you're athletic on top, you have nothing to worry about in terms of women
From searching videos about monks shaving their heads, to finding your channel and this... I'm kind of blown away! It's gonna be hard, but with my 40th birthday around the corner and so many years of partial baldness (without seeing an alternative), this video could just be a life-changer!
The power to change your life is truly in your possession brother 🤝 could be the fresh start you need🫡. Thank you so much also for this super thanks Incredibly kind of you and very much appreciated.
Watched this channel for months several years ago when I was thinking about going for it. Been over 2 years now. No regrets and wish I'd done it sooner. I felt kinda strange for a couple of days thinking people were staring. Realized the only people who noticed were people who knew me and I got positive comments. Just do it.
Love watching these videos. Every one if these looked better and happier after the shave. I noticed my hair thining 10 years ago in my early 20s. Hated seeing myself in security cameras in stores from above showing how bad it really was. Found this channel about a year ago and this passed summer I finally shaved my hair off for the first time. Now I buzz it with my clippers with no guard then go back over it with my braun series 7 shaver. Comes out near smooth. I like the look and have gotten nothing but compliments since then and definitely makes me feel a little better about myself.
After watching a load of your videos, I’m finally giving in this weekend after trying to hide my thinning hair for years. It’s lasted 42 years though. Hope I look as good as the guys in this video! 🤞🏻
I had a boyfriend with a great head of hair and on a whim he shaved his head (his job was hot, in summer) and I'm telling you, he looked better. VERY manly...and contrary to what you might be being told...WE WOMEN LOVE MEN.. Do NOT CRINGE at the idea ! It's all good. Every one of these men looks fantastic.
watched you for a couple months maybe almost a year and went back and forth with the idea of shaving my head but was just too content with just wearing a hat all the time. I play soccer and work as a soccer coach so wearing a hat wasn’t the most ideal thing. I’d take it off playing in my leagues and kick around and just tried not to think of it but one day my buddy sent me a video of me playing and my bald spot was gleaming. Watched a few more videos and set a date in stone and just went for it. I had my girlfriend shave it off and I’ve been a billion times happier and more confident. It’s not talked about out super openly amongst people I know since i’m only 23. If you are going bald and are thinking of shaving your head, just do it, and if you don’t like it grow it back out
It's great seeing young men regain their confidence. I started my bald journey before there were TH-cam channels like this to help encourage and guide you through. Even though I've been bald for going on 17 years, I enjoy watching these reveals. It's just a very uplifting experience in a world that often tries to put you down, especially this superficial modern social media driven world we find ourselves in today.
I was in 7th grade biology when we learned about widow's peak and balding, etc. The girl I had a crush on pointed out that I was already balding. The amounts of hair I had in the tub when I stepped out confirmed that. I struggled with it so hard until I was 22 and shaved my head. 20 years later I still do it and I have the same self conscious struggle even seeing the halo shadow, but my wife loves it.
@@maorizio1 I started balding in 7th grade as well, it started early maybe because of my constant use of helmet in sports but that's how bad MBT is, balding can start as early as that and being bald at 12 with everyone pointing it out is rough
Before TH-cam was invented, I began losing my hair and decided to get out the clippers to begin a new chapter. I had no idea this channel existed before today. It was validating to see the same expressions of hesitation and worry that I had way back in the day. Congratulations to all the guys who took this step.
Awesome. Initially it's difficult to complete the shaved look but it is better, easy to manage and removes that anxiety which is key to being able to move forward. Us bald and balding men need to understand we are also bold, trend setters and not measured on our hair lines. ❤
I started going bald at 16. At 22 I finally gave in and finished what genetics started. It was so freeing and 20 yrs later still the best decision ever. Welcome to the club gentleman!
47:52... MAN THISS!! "I wasn't insecure about being bald, I was insecure about balding and letting it influence how I feel." That's a powerful statement right there.
It's sad that guys have to suffer this ,but all of these guys are brave enough to shave their precious hair .Guys, you all look very, very handsome 😍😍😘
After wanting/needing to do this for a while....I finally got the courage after watching some of these. No more comb over!! My wife says she hates it....but she'll get over it eventually. I looked ridiculous trying to style my 3 hairs. No more Homer Simpson!! Thanks.
I am amazed how so many of these guys end up looking so much tougher and even intimidating in some cases. But the thing that surprises me most is I perceive these guys as looking way more self-confident, and how that changes my impression of someone just on their appearance - in a positive way.
I watched this video about a year ago album still didn't go for it. I watched it a few days ago and the next morning I finally done it. The instant feeling of relief was so good and the positive comments from family and friends only reinforces the right choice was made.
It's interesting seeing when guys's cut off point is for hair. Some guys are super balding, whereas some still have a few years left. I luckily have no lost any hair in my near 29 years of being a guy, but you guys have given me a lot of confidence in myself in case it ever happens. I've had a buzzcut a few times and loved it, but I'm confident I could go bald if you guys can go bald too.
Follow up your heart dude, if everyone is shaving and you don't wanna do it do a hair transplant and get your hair back. 2024 and solutions are plenty.
@@MrPink0 But hair transplants aren't guaranteed to work for everyone. For example, what if your balding is really advanced? Also, shaving your head doesn't mean you can never opt for a transplant.
@@Rye-jl2fk yeah you're not wrong👍, if you're like nw7 you gotta have good doctor and decent donor zona so they at least could position remaining har in balance so they cover head with less density.
These compilations are a must see for every man! They look so much better after shaving hair off. I wish the society would be more tolerant towards women who lose or shave off hair due to alopecia or other health issues, and not stare so much or imagine the worst case scenarios.. Anyway, these compilations gave me courage as well
In 2015 I had a blackout at work and fell and hit my head on a metal bath at work the top of my head was cut open badly while I had a seizure for the first time I let my hair grow back where that had to shave it had great thick black hair always had good comments noticed the thinning a year after and tried to brush it sideways and after getting my hair cut once a month I invested in a shaver at 35 yr old and decided to go 0.5 - 0 ev2n with the scar n my head I'm 44 this year don't worry about gel or spending 120 a year slight skin tone and I love the faded bald look just as much even if I had hair I'd still shave it best choice I ever made don't even realize how much better it would be respect to all you guys taking that step to go without thinner dry almost dead hair trust me you guys won't go back if you could no time wasted styling it in the mirror either which is the best thing about it!
What a great channel. All the dudes look better after the shave. Thanks for creating a great community for men to feel more confident about themselves.
I started receding at age 35 back in 2005. Shaved my head in 2006 and never looked back! My tips, hit the gym, facial hair and take care of the dome! 👌🏽 Women love it!
This brings a smile to my face. I've been shaving my head for about 7 years now and I'll never forget that first shave. The before and after pics are hilarious, I look borderline depressed in the before and in the after I'm beaming! The compliments started coming in left and right. My only regret is not doing it sooner! Every one of these dudes look awesome bald too. Mad respect and love for my bald brothers!!
I'm 34 but have been thinning for 5 years or so now. Every morning I wake up and worry about my hair, comb it over with hair spray to get it to stick down, agonise about wind and rain, wear hats, worry about where I sit and if people are right behind me. Some may perceive it as a small issue but it honestly consumes most of my waking moments, every day. I've thought about shaving it all off for years now but the thought of "what if I hate it?" has always held me back. Finding this channel has given me the courage to just do it. Doing it this evening. Excited. Nervous. Thank you.

Having a good beard really helps balancing everything out
Alhamdulillah brother
That's my #1 advice. Find a nice beardstyle that you look best and you will be good
I can't do a beard, mine is white as I was a redhead originally, but I'm ok with bald no beard
I can't even grow a beard and I'm balding 😢, my face shape is round and I don't have any muscles. It's gonna be a nightmare for me🤦
@@GREEDYGAMERR grow the face hair anyway, see how it looks, trim it into a shape than works and if you have thr motivation get to the gym a few days a week, and do your push ups at home when you can. Itll happen eventually brother

Just do it. I love seeing bald men. They look more masculine.
You’ll be fine, just get it lopped off 😂 trust me, I’m bald
Lovely guys ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Give it a try. If you don't like the results, then let your hair grow out again!
The full shave takes off so many years, everyone is automatically looking so much younger and brighter.
Yes, it's amazing. I've noticed it on older men especially... It takes 10 years off
I think there's not a guy who looks worse after shaving his head. Amazing.

@@Yinyankstankwell of course, he appeared to have a full head of hair before cutting it
This channel helped me a lot back in 2021 when I shaved my head. It took me over a year to accept. I also had to surround myself with more supportive people.
You can actually feel the relief after every shave. You can see it in every smile. Good on you fellas😁
The relief is because they realise that they dont look bad bald
@LLB517 most don't look bad bald

@toddl5569 Absolutely agree..Legend !! ... you look 🔥🔥🔥 Woof !!
I think your bold head is cute, toddl5569 !
Respect for that video. My brother is 12 years older than me and found going bald in his 20's pretty traumatic. He tried all sorts of "remedies" back in the 1990's before resorting to a hat for years. So I knew from young that I was going to go bald young too.
So I always had my hair cut low and as a Black man I carried it off for a long time. But by late 20's it was ridiculous trying to blend it in. Despite my brother's experience to learn from it wasn't easy. I even went to a Dr who was happy to refer me to a clinic where I would have taken medication for the rest of my life to prevent a process that's completely natural. That's why I think this video is so cool. You don't shy away from the fact that hair loss can be a very distressing emotional issue for guys. But emphasize just how positive an impact embracing what nature has given you is. There's a LOT that men need to open up about and going bald is one big step. Thank you
I have good hair at 30 still. Couple grey hairs. Bit I fell in love with buzzing head and growing beard out. Feels cool
U can wear had and not worry about hair too. Cool off in summer keeps hoodie on head in winter
I'm 28. Six months ago I decided to shave my head and your videos gave that confidence. Never been happier, I don't have to stress about how it looks anymore. Thank you very much!!
just use a treatment lol or microneedling + Verteporfin
@@Mr.Ketler fake looks awful and obvious, shaving is better. Plus it makes you seem like you dont have any confidence
@fabroceballos5459 You looked hot with hair..and I bet you look even hotter now without it. Woof !!
@@TheAbandonedAccount7 wtf! he will never look fake, what a nonsense lol😆
Its not a wig or something like that , its will be your hair...He 4 sure would be much confident with his hair
@@Mr.Ketler not bad, not bad. I'd recommend a male weave, and some breast implants.
I feel every single emotion these guys felt but I think this video has given me the push I needed to proceed into a new chapter in my life and letting go of my hair.
You can do it man. Freedom is on the other side of fear
started shaving my head in 2020 at 23 after years of being insecure about my hair. it is the best decision ive ever made in regards to my appearance. instantly made me feel more authentic and confident
25 and started shaving my head last summer after waking up one morning and having horrible bed hair. It bothered me so much that instead of combing I just grabbed my clippers and razor and went completely bald. I should have done that sooner, I like how it looks on me and it boosts my confidence.
Baldness is not caused by DHT.
There's an independent researcher who reached the conclusion Aldosterone causes baldness and baldness was a type of heart failure/high blood pressure warning sign.
Interestingly, Minoxidil and Finasteride can have a positive effect on blood pressure.
At 23?!
@@auntclechrishave you read the minoxidil/dermarolling thread?
@@auntclechrisI had a full on bald spot at 20. But that’s genetics for ya
Shaved mine new years eve 2023 thought it is now or never. Went from long hair to induction cut. Best thing I ever did. All the feelings these guys had I now realize it is universal. Glad I found your channel much respect to you
I am so proud of everyone in this compilation and for all those all over the world that have joined the bald brotherhood. I have been shaving my head for about 20 years now and I have never regretted it.
Preach, bro.
It's still horrible though. It's just the least 'bad' way of looking.
@@Scotty-Pnah its really not that bad
It's, that bad.@@George-nv1ri
@stidds ....And you look 🔥🔥🔥 Woof !!
One of the most important video for men on youtube. Take care of you and your brothers
Appreciate you
Happy you encouraged and ultimately inspired these men to do this. They ALL look SO much better. Can’t imagine the range of emotions but glad to see they all ended up happier with themselves and their appearance.
They all look so good without the hair! But completely understand the hesitation. You are all so brave! And look GREAT!
Im 19,ive been balding since i was 16,my hairline is as good as gone now and i have a v shaped hairline which i constantly shave. People have always given me a hard time for it as if I've comitted a crime but i understand thats just their blatant ignorance,this channel has really helped me accept my baldness,it doesn't bother me anymore,sure people give me weird looks when im passing on the streets while some even laugh at me and ridicule me but thats just who they are,it feels good to not be alone in this! Thank u mate❤ ill be rocking my bald look 😎😎😎
You rock buddy..be proud !! Well done...woof !!
I'm just like you but I'm 49 trust me chicks love a bald young guy
This video is so reassuring man. I haven't really lost enough of my hair to do this yet. But it's so reassuring to see all these people coming out better. Pretty wholesome as well.
Going on 20 years since I first started rocking a buzz cut when my hair started to thin at age 23…. and I’ve never looked back. Thank you for continuing to empower so many. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Unironically empowering and inspiring. Thank you very much to you who put together this video and every man who decided to film their shave!
Highly recommended… been doing it for 30 years , life is easy in the AM !
So I'm receding on the corners of my hairline and was worrying about how to try to maintain it for as long as possible. This great video has shown me that I am overly exaggerating my receding but also when my time comes to just accept it and rock it. All these fellas look and feel more confident instantly or at least that's my perception while watching 👌
Loved watching all these guys smiling at the end of them just buzzing it off,this channel has helped me and thousands of guys that it’s ok to bald well done band of baldy brothers👍
Smiling on camera, but then dying on the inside, nobody wants to lose their hair
Began my journey about 2-3 years ago. Thanks @Baldcafe for the channel and the encouragement.
Your channel is now more important than ever, since every other balding influencer has a hair transplant placement!
It’s gone wild right. Especially in the fitness industry. I really feel you on this.
This was good to see - I took the dive 7 years ago in my mid 20s after stressing about it constantly. If I ever have doubts I did the right thing, I go back to videos like this and take note that every single guy looks 100% better after the shave.
Every Single Guy looks happier and better at the end!
Really great to see such a community. Props to all these dudes.
I’m 27 and have been dealing with a receding hairline/thinning hair for about a year and a half now. I thought about shaving my head on New Year’s Eve last night and start the year off with a new look but guess what? I failed to muster up the courage to go for it lol. Probably just because I still have a lot of hair left. It’s not very obvious yet. I guess I’m gonna wait till it is. I guess when you’re dealing with hair loss, there’s a right time to go for the head shave and for me, it’s not now. Every guy on this channel who shaved his head and shared his story is a total badass.
Your time will come when it feels right man. And honestly knowing that you have the power to take that step any time you want… I hope it relaxes you enough to really give less of a shiii about the fading hair and to not worry or have it impact you at all. Then when you fancy the change go for it. It’s one hell of a dopamine releasing serotonin boost
Don't dramatise it bro. It's only hair. Take it off.
I’m exactly in the same situation and 28 yo. Still got enough hair to keep it but I know for sure that it will get worse.
Now seeing this kind of video enables me to have a peaceful mind about this.
After watching this video I'm considering doing it, but think I'll ask a few female friends their opinion first!
Every single guy in this video looked amazing and younger after they shaved their heads. Nice job
It's true.
Well done to Harry this channel you’ve created has unleashed anxiety and all these guys fear of how they look,the mental release is amazing to see 👍
I often see guys going bald and think just give it up and shave it off!! This is so satisfying!!
Did mine 1 year ago this January with a buzz cut 0.
By the time spring comes round you will start to get a tan, make sure to use moisturiser with spf protection! Started working on fitness getting in better shape also, do it for yourself & no one else.
I love a man with a shaved head ❤ Everyone looked so handsome!
That's cool and all, but the majority of women don't. Especially women with decent options
I love this video, it's so wholesome and heartwarming. Every guy that shaved their head looked better afterwards. You can really tell the weight was lifted from every single one of them. I really hope this gives guys currently struggling with balding the confidence to just take the step and move into the next phase of their life!
I can't believe how much hotter some looked after. All looked better, but some were like "WHOA"
When you decide to try going bald by choice, try some partial shave options. I think a “potty rim would be fun to try for awhile (though possibly not in public)!
I tried a Mohawk when I first buzzed it and absolutely loved it. I kept it for a little while but then finished the buzz and shaved and have been bald ever since.
Seems like most of these men worried that their scalp would be weird or ugly. I didn’t think much about it but now I do notice when rubbing it (irresistible!), it is smooth but somewhat irregular. But it looks pretty much fine, at least to me, like 😊!
No way I will go back to having head hair!
Thanks for this compilation. I’ve been a subscriber for several years and tend to binge with baldcafe when I click on one. I know you are inspiring a lot of men. ❤
Every single lad looks SO good and so much younger. It's a very personal thing I know, but just know you all look awesome and very macho ❤
Yeah if you have normal skull shape, don't cling into your dying hair. Horseshoe is the worst. Bald looks younger than a horseshoe, and harder, which is a masculine trait. If you're athletic on top, you have nothing to worry about in terms of women
I love the support from the friends and family in the clips.
You got this
Been bald for decades but this brought some feelings back. Happy to see people transform.
From searching videos about monks shaving their heads, to finding your channel and this... I'm kind of blown away! It's gonna be hard, but with my 40th birthday around the corner and so many years of partial baldness (without seeing an alternative), this video could just be a life-changer!
Think of renouncing your own vanity (which is hair) as a step towards enlightenment.
The power to change your life is truly in your possession brother 🤝 could be the fresh start you need🫡. Thank you so much also for this super thanks Incredibly kind of you and very much appreciated.
@@Baldcafe It's only a symbol of appreciation. Thank YOU my man! Very kind words.
@@UsertfdersYep! Honestly that was the thought that set things in motion :)
Everyone of them, and i mean everyone looks so good. The relief in their faces says it all..
I'm not ready to go yet, but I'm close, watching this is really making it easier. Well done everyone!
When you’re ready your brothers will be here in full support.
And if you're not ready this isn't the only solution, you can do a hair transplant and get your hair back or shave, absolutely your call 🤙 good luck
Watched this channel for months several years ago when I was thinking about going for it. Been over 2 years now. No regrets and wish I'd done it sooner.
I felt kinda strange for a couple of days thinking people were staring. Realized the only people who noticed were people who knew me and I got positive comments. Just do it.
Love watching these videos. Every one if these looked better and happier after the shave. I noticed my hair thining 10 years ago in my early 20s. Hated seeing myself in security cameras in stores from above showing how bad it really was. Found this channel about a year ago and this passed summer I finally shaved my hair off for the first time. Now I buzz it with my clippers with no guard then go back over it with my braun series 7 shaver. Comes out near smooth. I like the look and have gotten nothing but compliments since then and definitely makes me feel a little better about myself.
What I didn't like about this video is none of the men I saw had large or protruding ears. Being bald only accentuates this.
Thank you, I'm holding on to my long hair a bit longer, but I know this day is coming and this video actually lifted a boulder off my back.
Helped so many people Harry. Should be really proud of yourself 👍
Thank you brother. It’s been amazing
Does anyone else find this extremely relaxing and satisfying?
Yes
After watching a load of your videos, I’m finally giving in this weekend after trying to hide my thinning hair for years. It’s lasted 42 years though. Hope I look as good as the guys in this video! 🤞🏻
Grow your beard otherwise you might end up looking like one of those grey aliens outta Roswell.
I had a boyfriend with a great head of hair and on a whim he shaved his head (his job was hot, in summer) and I'm telling you, he looked better. VERY manly...and contrary to what you might be being told...WE WOMEN LOVE MEN.. Do NOT CRINGE at the idea ! It's all good. Every one of these men looks fantastic.
watched you for a couple months maybe almost a year and went back and forth with the idea of shaving my head but was just too content with just wearing a hat all the time. I play soccer and work as a soccer coach so wearing a hat wasn’t the most ideal thing. I’d take it off playing in my leagues and kick around and just tried not to think of it but one day my buddy sent me a video of me playing and my bald spot was gleaming. Watched a few more videos and set a date in stone and just went for it. I had my girlfriend shave it off and I’ve been a billion times happier and more confident. It’s not talked about out super openly amongst people I know since i’m only 23. If you are going bald and are thinking of shaving your head, just do it, and if you don’t like it grow it back out
It's great seeing young men regain their confidence. I started my bald journey before there were TH-cam channels like this to help encourage and guide you through. Even though I've been bald for going on 17 years, I enjoy watching these reveals. It's just a very uplifting experience in a world that often tries to put you down, especially this superficial modern social media driven world we find ourselves in today.
After shaving everyone looking superhero 🤯 cool af
Each one of these guys is my hero for real.
@@Baldcafesome of these men are pretty muscular so that helps.
Every one of these guys looks better after the shave. Well done for the support and encouragement 👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I was in 7th grade biology when we learned about widow's peak and balding, etc. The girl I had a crush on pointed out that I was already balding. The amounts of hair I had in the tub when I stepped out confirmed that. I struggled with it so hard until I was 22 and shaved my head. 20 years later I still do it and I have the same self conscious struggle even seeing the halo shadow, but my wife loves it.
How can you start balding in 7th grade, that 12-13 years old!!
I know guys start balding early as 16-17 but 12 seems impossible.
@@maorizio1 I started balding in 7th grade as well, it started early maybe because of my constant use of helmet in sports but that's how bad MBT is, balding can start as early as that and being bald at 12 with everyone pointing it out is rough
@@buppy4976 helmet has nothing to do with MPB, but starting go bald in 7th grade seems extreme.
Before TH-cam was invented, I began losing my hair and decided to get out the clippers to begin a new chapter. I had no idea this channel existed before today. It was validating to see the same expressions of hesitation and worry that I had way back in the day. Congratulations to all the guys who took this step.
Awesome. Initially it's difficult to complete the shaved look but it is better, easy to manage and removes that anxiety which is key to being able to move forward. Us bald and balding men need to understand we are also bold, trend setters and not measured on our hair lines. ❤
this is a deeply satisfying video to watch. sort of amazed they left it so long to do it ✂️ i shared their relief 😅
That end statement from the guy saying he wasn’t scared about being bald, just balding … was so poignant and sums up exactly the feeling around it
I started going bald at 16. At 22 I finally gave in and finished what genetics started. It was so freeing and 20 yrs later still the best decision ever.
Welcome to the club gentleman!
I need some encouragement also. I have to say all of these guys got better looking.
Lots of it here for you in the channel and even more in the private community 👍
Eliminating hair as an issue is one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. So liberating
🙏
Not watched it yet but putting money on none of them looking worse...
A betting man
47:52... MAN THISS!! "I wasn't insecure about being bald, I was insecure about balding and letting it influence how I feel." That's a powerful statement right there.
It's sad that guys have to suffer this ,but all of these guys are brave enough to shave their precious hair .Guys, you all look very, very handsome 😍😍😘
The sound of the clippers and the feeling you get when it’s done is priceless. Cheers, mates.
Did it today after midnight for a fresh start into the new year, felt fuckin amazing.
Best possible start to the year lad. Congratulations 🤝
Same dude lolll shit feels so good. i used to get stress seeing those hair fall frequently
Welcome to the club😎
After wanting/needing to do this for a while....I finally got the courage after watching some of these. No more comb over!! My wife says she hates it....but she'll get over it eventually. I looked ridiculous trying to style my 3 hairs. No more Homer Simpson!! Thanks.
I am amazed how so many of these guys end up looking so much tougher and even intimidating in some cases. But the thing that surprises me most is I perceive these guys as looking way more self-confident, and how that changes my impression of someone just on their appearance - in a positive way.
Yes! From an internet cafe nerd to a pirate viking instantly haha
I watched this video about a year ago album still didn't go for it. I watched it a few days ago and the next morning I finally done it. The instant feeling of relief was so good and the positive comments from family and friends only reinforces the right choice was made.
It's interesting seeing when guys's cut off point is for hair. Some guys are super balding, whereas some still have a few years left.
I luckily have no lost any hair in my near 29 years of being a guy, but you guys have given me a lot of confidence in myself in case it ever happens. I've had a buzzcut a few times and loved it, but I'm confident I could go bald if you guys can go bald too.
It is quite interesting you are right. One mans balding is another mans "You had loads of hair!"
Follow up your heart dude, if everyone is shaving and you don't wanna do it do a hair transplant and get your hair back. 2024 and solutions are plenty.
@@MrPink0 But hair transplants aren't guaranteed to work for everyone. For example, what if your balding is really advanced? Also, shaving your head doesn't mean you can never opt for a transplant.
@@Rye-jl2fk yeah you're not wrong👍, if you're like nw7 you gotta have good doctor and decent donor zona so they at least could position remaining har in balance so they cover head with less density.
Thank you Harry! You helped me and so many people!
Whole thing is an honor and a pleasure brother
Its time for me, I made it to 25. But im ready to let it go, getting rid of all things that stresses me this year🙏💯.
Every last one of these guys like 10x when they've cut it off, you can even see the new confidence and vibrancy radiating from them immediately after.
These compilations are a must see for every man! They look so much better after shaving hair off. I wish the society would be more tolerant towards women who lose or shave off hair due to alopecia or other health issues, and not stare so much or imagine the worst case scenarios.. Anyway, these compilations gave me courage as well
In 2015 I had a blackout at work and fell and hit my head on a metal bath at work the top of my head was cut open badly while I had a seizure for the first time I let my hair grow back where that had to shave it had great thick black hair always had good comments noticed the thinning a year after and tried to brush it sideways and after getting my hair cut once a month I invested in a shaver at 35 yr old and decided to go 0.5 - 0 ev2n with the scar n my head I'm 44 this year don't worry about gel or spending 120 a year slight skin tone and I love the faded bald look just as much even if I had hair I'd still shave it best choice I ever made don't even realize how much better it would be respect to all you guys taking that step to go without thinner dry almost dead hair trust me you guys won't go back if you could no time wasted styling it in the mirror either which is the best thing about it!
What a great channel. All the dudes look better after the shave. Thanks for creating a great community for men to feel more confident about themselves.
My pleasure man 👍 welcome
This helped me allot to change my mind im gonna do it tomorrow first thing!!!
Go for it brother 👍

I started receding at age 35 back in 2005. Shaved my head in 2006 and never looked back! My tips, hit the gym, facial hair and take care of the dome! 👌🏽 Women love it!

Statics: Each guy who shaved made a Turkey doctor cry. Congratulations to everyone
This brings a smile to my face. I've been shaving my head for about 7 years now and I'll never forget that first shave. The before and after pics are hilarious, I look borderline depressed in the before and in the after I'm beaming! The compliments started coming in left and right. My only regret is not doing it sooner! Every one of these dudes look awesome bald too. Mad respect and love for my bald brothers!!
ALL THE BEST MY BALD BROTHERS.... GOD BLESS HAVE A GOOD 2024
I'm 34 but have been thinning for 5 years or so now. Every morning I wake up and worry about my hair, comb it over with hair spray to get it to stick down, agonise about wind and rain, wear hats, worry about where I sit and if people are right behind me. Some may perceive it as a small issue but it honestly consumes most of my waking moments, every day.
I've thought about shaving it all off for years now but the thought of "what if I hate it?" has always held me back. Finding this channel has given me the courage to just do it.
Doing it this evening. Excited. Nervous. Thank you.
