when your bbc - does the family ever stop?

[Snakehandler]

Except for my wife initially I've only received positive comments from family. But then they know better than to give me sh*t about this or anything else 😄

I hear it all the time i just let it slide off of my back

Another reason I'm glad I don't live near family - I don't have to hear it!!

Nowadays, so many of my family members are either sly or partially bald....no one cares, we're just happy to see each other, hair or no hair...

Hi there,

I am bbc - most part.
If I have mpb I am at the early stages, but never had great hair and temples grew and the hair at the hairline is thinner.
I could still have hair, but decided to take the bull at its horns and take it all of, before it gets worse, and enjoy my bald head.

So, usually for familyaffairs I let it grow for a few days, so I have some stubble and they would allways say:
you would look so much nicer if you would let it grow a bit.

So this time i had it completely smooth for the first time and they said it again.
I know I am old enough ;-)
I tell them, the hair isn't great anymore and that I like it - but the topic comes up again and again.

So, does anyone have any suggestions how to put an end to this without offending them?

Regards
baldaholic :-)

No way.
You have to carry ignorance with a smile. Or that would say Sting.

I say let them deal with it. Bear said it quite well, be polite but after that, the matter is closed. No more discussion needed. You like it and that's what matters.

In my family, i'm still the only one who decided to go full bald... Well they find it surprising as well as encouraging for them to follow my new style... I always tell them it's my fashion statement... and the statement is bald is beautiful man!

I agree with everybody else here - mostly that it is your decision & your choice to be a bald guy. I would add that you are happy with the way you look & just graciously leave it at that.

For me, I just told my family that it grows in so light that you can't see it and left it like that. It made it sound like it was more nature doing it then my choice, there for I had no control over it.
