Bald vs balding

I just decided to go full shaved head. I think bald looks better than balding.

What’s your opinion?

Do you trim your hair very short? Do you suffer from the same dilemma?

I shave head bald because of alopecia areata, you know this.

I also find that looking clean is respectful and a shaved head looks clean the same way that like a freshly done mid-range haircut looks.

Yeah I know! How often do you need to trim your hair?

Having hair on the sides makes me think of my bald ex step father. I’d rather go the whole mile and shave the lot of every few days with a razor blade.

It is harder to age a man who shaves it all off. Being thin on top and sides makes you look older.

I run clippers and shave my husband’s head every couple weeks.

He’s bald on top, and is very self conscious about it.

Yeap,and I think it looks better, doesn’t it?

I trim my hair every 3 weeks, I’m kind of lazy
The mess is more difficult when the hair is shorter

Risperdone, zyprexa, and haldol cause loss of hair along with some blood pressure pills and statins. You usually don’t see hair loss till after 6 months of use. Check on these too. It can take 6 months before hair resumes to grow once off certain meds and on others.

Once I was at the dermatologist with my pretty bald dad. I asked about minoxidil, and he pointed my father’s head saying “this is your future” lol

I have thinning hair over my whole scalp. No more balding it is.

Chris likes it much better. He also keeps his face shaved now as well. His facial hair is all grey and white. If he shaves, he looks a good 10 years younger, which is a big deal to a guy pushing 50. :wink:

I wish there was a cream or cleanser that washed away hair. Id use it daily

The way I clog up the shower drain with hair every time I take a shower, I’ll have to make the decision within 1 - 2 years.

A left field(perhaps) question. Did/or do any of who are bald/thinning on top have thinning of underarm hair ?

Cut my hair down to almost buzz cut because I have alopecia on the sides of my head. Thinking about going completely bald but idk if I want to make that step yet

I think it varies for different men. But on most men, bald or extremely short looks better than balding. To be honest, I dont care much about a man’s hairstyle though…someone can be bald or balding, and attractive. It doesn’t matter much to me.

Hope it works out for you! Good luck.

I prefer bald. Balding always looks sad to me. Like the person just won’t let go of the idea that hair is the only thing that makes them attractive. There’s much more to a person than hair. Though I understand it is important to many people.

Im only 28 and my hair is already thinning on top. I’ve decided that as soon as it becomes noticeable, I’m going to shave my head. I’ve never had a shaved head before so it will be interesting.
