People don't care
« on: June 24, 2011, 12:46:34 PM »
So I've now been sly bald for 13 months, and through that time period I've come to realize something. No matter how much in our minds we may think people care about us being bald, they really simply don't or they like it. If anything I think that the confidence we give off and the little bit of mystery about our shaved heads is actually a big attention getter.  I've recently started talking to a guy whose taken interest and is an abercombie and fitch model. So if thats not an eye opener as into people don't care than I don't know what is. I definetly know that wouldn't be the case if I was still a depressed balding guy or a 19 year old with a horseshoe of hair. I still have my days sometimes where I think it would be nice to be able to grow a full head of hair, but than I also have the days where I don't shave for a day and feel wierd.  ;D Really though I think if your on the fence and you don't know if you wanna shave your head because people might not like you bald you really have to stop and look at the options. You could either shave your head and become an instant badass, wear a rug and be constantly worried about it, be a teenager and look like a grandpa, or take pills that leave you with ED. Really which one would you pick? I know theres some young guys out there that are gonna be like me at first and be so depressed and paranoid about being bald, hell a few months after shaving I still didn't totally like it. Now I feel that I look better than if I had hair and the confidence I have because of it is really spilling over into other areas of my life. So if you are debating about shaving your head because of mpb than "Just do it!" because theres no better time than now to change your life around.


The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the Past better than it was,
the Present worse than it is & the future less resolved than it will be.

This is so true! I went sly 29 days ago (1 day shy of the 30 day rule!) and the majority of people reacted to it by saying nothing or not showing any reaction at all and the rest replied with compliments. Afterall, why should anyone care? Its just a haircut.
