Eh disagree. 9/10 times guys look better bald than they do with wispy thin hair

I don't necessarily disagree, but I see so many men where you barely would've noticed they're even balding and they shave everything off because they don't want to be "that guy" with a comb-over.... and they were far from it.

No, waaay too many people hold on for waaay too long and look absolutely terrible with their thinning hair. They think it's not noticeable, but it is very obvious and looks bad.

Well, it's definitely an unpopular opinion. 🤷🏻

I just think it's a great look. Most guys pull it off imho

My girlfriend and kids really like it when my hair grow out to be soft, but I think it just looks so bad. My confidence drops immediately. I get what you're saying, but if I can't have luscious hair I'm gonna have a glorious beard.

If you haven't personally dealt with hair loss then you can't possibly have an opinion on how it should be handled.

And I feel that if you have no personal experience with the issue then your opinion is not just unpopular but invalid.

Have you ever directed a Hollywood film? I guess you're not allowed to have opinions on movies then.

hair loss is a genetic condition that some men and women have to deal with and don't have a choice in the matter. How we chose to mitigate and deal with that genetic issue is not remotely close to your Hollywood analogy. Nice try though.

It's a fashion trend. Maybe toupees and wigs will come back, that would be cool.

Is it OK with you if I had a beard before I chose to shave my head or nah?

We do it so you guys can make the joke about how all our hair left our head and grew out of our face. Former bald beard turned bald mustache.

I'm 27, and my family has a history of hair loss. I'm not balding yet, and I do have a beard. It is expensive to counteract hair loss. Hair loss can make men feel less desirable. Men prefer to shave their heads instead of attempting to tackle their hair loss with combovers and expensive treatments that might not even work. When a balding man shaves his head, he is saying that he has resigned himself to the biological burden placed upon him. He doesn't think about how much you like running your fingers through his hair, he is thinking about how he will be perceived by his peers. This is done for their own self confidence. For every woman who says that they dislike shaved heads, is a dozen that say they hate balding. Shaving their heads to hide their baldness is a way to maintain their self confidence.

I agree. Shaving your head isn't a one-size-fits-all solution for everyone experiencing the first signs of hair loss. Different hairstyles look better on different people. But ultimately, just choose a hairstyle that makes you feel comfortable.

It is the current trend as beards are in. Some of us are naturally balding and have been shaving our heads for a long time

by AlbatrossDry9698 1 month ago

No way. More guys need to shave it off and spend that usual haircut money on a beard styling. Too many balding men hold on to that thinning hair for far too long

Not if you've been planning it for 35 years and doing the lifting to back it up.

Bald head and beard is a person I stay away from. Always creepy or a Republican

by Anonymous 1 month ago

I'm none of that, but with that attitude, you can stay away.

If they have blue eyes they look like a viking, so that's dope, but I feel like this is the one haircut that anyone can do, and, as a young guy who can't grow much of a beard, I'm looking forward to being able to pull this off myself.
