        Pretty much same. Now I’m 30 and still can’t grow a beard. I just wear hats all the time, so no one knows I’m bald, because my hair is pretty thick in the horse shoe.

          As a fellow baldy, its liberating to just own it. But sun protection is a must! I like wearing hats not because Im self conscious but because I dont want a crusty scalp!

          I hate to tell you, buddy, but everybody can tell what you’re doing. It’s just that most people know that guys that do this are trying to hide it, and there’s an unspoken rule not to say anything about it. Like when people wear with platform insoles to make themselves seem taller, but we all know…

      I’m 27 and it’s been slowly getting at me on and off in spurts for 5 years almost. Sometimes I get it coming back on my crown and then it goes away. Now the front is receding.

      Oh well, this is a man’s world, and it wouldn’t mean nothing, without the widow and crown loss 🎶🎵

      7 years ago I was also worrying about it, but now I’m 30 and I like to have a bald head. I don’t need to worry anymore about making sure that my hair stays good.

        I wish I had the confidence for this. I’ve just been making sure I never leave home without a hat.

          During COVID I decided to shave my head bald, because I though I’m working from home and will not see a lot of people for a while. I was nervous at the time, but after I shaved. I felt relieved and thought, hmm, this is not that bad.

          Because being bald is nothing to be shamed of about. I do hope for you that you will get one day the confidence to go with it.

            Do you shave it yourself? Is it pretty easy to do by yourself? Would definitely save on hair cuts every few months lol.

              Vlemmy is down, so I’m responding on my other account.

              Yes, I do it myself. It is not that difficult, after a few times you will get used to it and it gets easier. I’m the beginning I only shaved my head every 2 weeks once and now I do it every 2/3 days and it will only take 15 minutes to shave it.

              I do not use a razor, because the chance on cutting yourself on your head is higher. I use this shaver with shaving foam

      Been bald since I was 15, had the widowers peak ever since I was 10. I decided to just shave off all my hair and never looked back.

      It is definitely something you wanna do early. I’ve never had any issues thinking about hairstyles haha.

    God I feel this. It’s EXACTLY how I describe my hairline lol it’s actually pretty cool when people get what I mean.

    I just shave my head now though, I’m not going around with a widows peak that would give Mt.Everest a run for it’s money.

    The thing I love about Lemmy is that all the memes are clearly made by other people in their 30s and not children in their teens.
