I am not bald at all, I just got a m, the rest of my hair grow properly and while I got a decent build. I have soft facial trait and I worry that I'd look like a cancer patient if I shave my hair.

Don't let western society's fetish for youth and pretty boys bring you down. There's nothing wrong with the natural process of aging. Certainly these things have existed since mankind has been around, so you're not a malfunction.

I say this as a guy who has a thick head of hair and can grow a full beard. It doesn't make me a happier or better person than you.

The beard is not really a problem. I Am not a big fan of how it looks though.

Does your family have a history of hair loss? If so, how severe? Have a look at this picture, and tell me where your father/grandfathers are/were, and where you are: https://smhttp-ssl-33667.nexcesscdn.net/manual/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/norwood-scale-for-men.jpg

There are things we can do to help this problem. A receding hairline isn't a death sentence like it was 30 years ago. There are treatments.

And don't listen to the "just shave it off and work out!" crowd. It's clear you care about your hair, and you shouldn't need to give it up when there are things we can do to help it.

Shave it, work out, and grow a beard of Goatee

It works

I don't know. I don't see my father anymore and my mother got two sisters. I am in column 2 a bit between row 1 and row 2.

So you've noticed a bit of a bald spot appearing at the top of your head too?

I will cling to my hair as long as I possibly can and keep as much as I can (will just have to be cut shorter eventually).

You saying it as someone with lots of hair gives you less credit because you don't know what it's like. You don't know what you're missing until it's gone.

Yeah seriously.

Your hair can be very important to how you see yourself and to see it change and there's nothing you can do, that can really effect some people.

I'm always comparing myself to others and their builds and genetics, but it's futile and it just mindfucks you. I don't have to have experience with baldness to understand the implications of comparing yourself to others. Nothing good can come of it. The best you can do is work with what you have and forget about others. It's tough since we live in such a vain, egotistical society. But it's all you can do to feel better.

The issue isn't comparing yourself to others, it's comparing yourself to yourself... back when you had hair. Losing something you had is more devastating than never having something because it gives that reference point. This is what you're not understanding.

...aging is fucking natural and we all do it. None of us are going to be as attractive, youthful, playful, etc. as we were when we're younger. It's common fucking sense, and the more you try and fight the natural process of aging and refuse to accept it, the more stupid you are. We ALL do it, and we better accept it, unless you want to suffer.

Work with what you have. With age comes wisdom and experience. Build off of THAT, not something as superficial as hair loss or wrinkles.

That doesn't stop it from being devastating. You don't understand because you're not at that point in life or you're fortunate enough to age well. Your spiel is like a supermodel saying looks don't matter or a rich person saying money doesn't matter. You're full of shit, mate.

If TC still wants chicks, this method works.

Although results may vary.
A tall guy with a hot face is going to have better luck with it than a short dude with an average mug.

So your solution is to fight reality of aging and death, and suffer emotionally for it.

Also, your stupid "you haven't experienced it so you don't know!" is such a childish way of looking at things. I know a lot about life and how people look at things.

One of the most brilliant war general and strategist of all time, Sun Tzu, never fought in battle. How stupid would it be if the soldiers thought "Hey, this guy never fought! What does he know about war!"

Not really

There's no way you can tell someone who actually experiences something how they feel or should feel from you armchair

Almost 30, no signs of balding. I'm blessed for that. If I was to start balding, I'd be mortified.

On the bright side, I'm accustomed to keeping my hair short. I just buzz it all off because I can't stand having long hair.

Point being, if you're used to keeping your hair short, almost to the point of being bald, it shouldn't be that heartbreaking. Experiences may vary.

I understand that. I'm just saying it's stupid to emotionally torture yourself. When we're talking about superlatives like looks and age, of course I can relate. I'd be more hesitant to talk about things like cancer of course. Life is a cancer and we're all dying slowly anyways, so whatever.

You'll stop giving a fuck when you get older. It really doesn't mean shit to anyone accept yourself.

I don't even..

You don't even have basic reading comprehension. No one said anything about fighting reality. On the contrary, I'm talking about acknowledging reality instead of pretending it's insignificant.

You're talking about being devestated over losing hair. That's not accepting the reality of aging. Benign devestated and comparing yourself to youth and others isn't acknowleding reality. It's fighting it. Just because I'm not going bald doesn't mean I don't comprehend the reality of getting old in general.

I came to terms with the fact I'd be bald years ago. I've seen my dad. I know how that story ends. What has mentally unnerved me more than expected is that my temples have started to gray. Like the idea of being bald wasn't bad, but I honestly figured I would have lost most my hair before going gray. I honestly didn't consider this a possibility.

You do know you can go bald without being old, right? Never mind, it's unreasonable to expect you to have a clue based on your posts in this topic.

Get on finasteride and rogaine if you're unhappy about it.

It really works.

this topic needs more pics of confident bald posters.
