How to deal with being bald?

Until yesterday I used to have long hair. Due to unusually high tempetures I started having problems with the skin on my head. So, to avoid problems. I shaved it clean and it will remain that way until the skin in treated.

Now that I’m bald, I now know what’s it’s like. It sucks. My old hair suited me perfectly. It was messy just the right amount, perfect length, made me look different than the rest and handsome as hell. Every girl would look at me where ever I went to. Compliments floating over the air, jealous looks from other men etc. etc. It made me feel powerful.

But most importantly, it suited my personality and clothing. It was perfect! But now it’s gone. I hate bald me. I will never look back at this bald version of myself.

It feels weird. I don’t feel that bad but still it’s disheartening.

Just don’t give a flying fuck about anyone else’s opinion about you, it works for other things also. Good luck!!

I had ‘a little’ thinning back in 2013, and immediately went fully bald shaving my head 3x a week since then. Our appearances and acceptance of it depends on your ability to come to terms, identify and personify with the truth of the matter and your decisions.

I had thinning. I said fuck it and told myself how I would identify, instead of letting my genetics get the better part of me. I was in my early 20s. I’ve been bald since and when people know you as bald, they don’t judge you like people who knew you with hair.

Go all in, make it who you are, stop caring about hair, and people, and their opinions (if they matter), will follow. (That being said, don’t be bald with a stache, unless you’re ready for that kind of judgement. In my field it’s pretty common, and so are the ‘pedo stache’ jokes. You just have to ignore them. For clarity, I’m bald with a mustache.)

You’ll get used to it. Find a few nice hats you like. It has more to do with temperature control than vanity. I find I get cold easier.

You don’t, so appreciate the time you’ll have hair. Because once it’s truly gone, you’ll look back on this day and cry.

Exactly, Fabio here, is complaining about his hair.

I’d just like to say, as an actually bald person, I think it’s okay. It suits me, it’s low-maintenance, and it’s nice in hot weather.

I find whenever I make a drastic hair change that after a few days, I couldn’t imagine going back to the old style

It’s like if you shave a mustache. “Where’d your lip go?!” then 2 days later you look normal again.
