yes same. I accepted it and moved on in my 30s. Now i like my buzzed look, i think i look better than ever.

I think bladness needs an equivalent of 'fat acceptance'. When somone is in their 20's. Its hard to accept your lower value as a potential mate for something that's totally out of their control.

There's a Youtube Channel called Bald Cafe where men are interviewed about their hair loss, and they shave their heads.

It's easy to see that for some people it's a big deal, and it's a bit tricky for them to come to terms with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfxZvMydPYQ

I think this a harmful trend too. Ironically, Pepetuates the same concept that something natural like balding is something to hide.

Being bald without completely shaven look is a ok, normal and attractive too.

Not shaving your head unfortunately puts you in the familiar camp of men who basically deny their balding and can't roll with the punch.

Just get rid of it.

How? I don't want to shave my head every weekend. I shave every 1 month or so. Towards the end i have the classic bald man look. How is that 'denying my balding' ? bald look doesnt bother me. So why the perception that i have some physiological issues re my balding if i don't shave on a regular basis.

yea and?

I shave because i don't know how to give myself a proper haircut by myself. Shaving is much easier, takes me about 15 minutes.

Not quite sure what point you are trying to make.

Controlling your weight is in your control. Going bald isn't (at least not in the same side effect-free way that controlling your weight is).
