Life as a bald guy

[VanillaCreme]

Hey guys !
    Can I say something about that ?what other people thinks about baldy It doesn't matter ,someone's  behavior and kindness only matter ,if someone's personality or behavior is kind for other people then it didn't even matter at all if that  person is baldy or anything.
And I bet you looks cute Ardour.

No, and I do not look like all those bald guys with attractive head shapes and facial structures.  It looks like my head had been caught in an elevator door and when I smile I look like an idiot.

I highly, highly doubt this.

Well okay then an unusually narrow head and unappealing features. Hair would have at least have provided a better proportion to that.
Bald only works with a large head and attractive widely spaced features, otherwise it just accentuates the negative.

Hey Ardour,
If you stop thinking like that ,you will feel better about yourself .think positive about everything that you are .
And everyone know, that no one is perfect in this world.

I think you're being too hard on yourself. Don't see the negative just because it's you. I think bald would work with pretty much any shape and size.

Short story : I've been balding since  I was 15 and for the last few years living under a cap, which I'm allowed at work since it's very casual here.

So a couple of days ago I took it off thinking all would be fine, everyone I knew would embrace the new look..

I've noticed quite a few smug looks and generally less respect from people out and about. Sure my closer friends have given the vote of confidence, but there's also been a lot of turned up noses from strangers and acquaintances. I guess this is just life for us baldies;  basically eating humble pie every day.  

Hair gives the face and head proportion, without it you look like  a giant baby.  I hate it, but there's no dignified solution, other than donning a rug and getting some awful transplant surgery the results of which look pretty disastrous.

Looks matter, even well into adulthood, there's no magic number after which they don't,  otherwise I wouldn't have noticed a different vibe.  

You guys with hair don't know how lucky you are.

Yes, I can understand what you have said. However balding is something that is by and large genetic, partly it's due to your lifestyle and eating habits. Lifestyle and eating habits can be controlled but genetics cannot be controlled, so yes I can understand how it must be for you, but if I have not heard of many people beginning to lose hair since the age of 15!. 15 years of age is too young to start losing hair, normally that doesn't happen unless it's in your genes to lose hair.

However the way you have written post, if I am not wrong it looks like you have accepted this happily which is good.

Yes, I still have head full of hair and there is absolutely no sign of balding, it seems I cannot lose hair and you are right, I am very lucky indeed. I know that. I am thankful to my genetics for this .However on a regular basis I also take care of my hair.
