Need urgent advice

Hey guys,
I haven't taken the plunge yet but I think i'm almost there... 5 weeks of college and out comes the razor... but I have some concerns/questions... I was wondering if I should start applying Minox, so that even if I shave my head, it looks like there's still some... I mean all you guys really rock the look but i'm only 21.... if I was say 27, I wouldn't be posting this...
the other thing is confidence... in my life, there's on thing after the other... I've never been overweight but have a bunch of stretch marks sadly.. even though i've always kept in (6-pack) shape...
secondly, I have oddly uneven ears so I got that fixed but they're still not 100% normal (though way better)...
And now the hair loss...
I'm an ok looking guy I guess
The question is: Considering everything, do you guys think I should just shave and let it go naturally or try to sustain it for a few years with Minox??
P.S. I know it doesn't look like it, but i've lost at least 70% of my volume... also receeding like crazy
thanks a ton guys! Your advice is always the best!!

Just wanted to add, I completely lack confidence with the hair already....
Thanks!! :)

If your receding hairline is bothering you to the point that you are considering taking action (be that whatever), then TAKE ACTION! I also started losing hair in my twenties, but steadfastly ignored it until recently. Looking at my shaved hairline, I now wonder why I didn't do it earlier.
Why do you have such a confidence issue? Are you taking abuse about your hair? If so - screw them.
Most guys look fine with a sly dome and are able to rock the look easily. If shaving bald from the outset is a daunting idea, then buzz your hair off with no guard on the clippers. That way you'll get used to the shape of your head and allow some UV onto your scalp so it isn't deathly-white when you do shave.
Welcome to the brotherhood of MPB. Bald-by-choice is simply taking a shortcut to the inevitable. Good luck!

FWIW, my advice is to shave it and release yourself of the <obvious> burden this is creating for you. Both worry and maintenance are consuming too much of your attention.
You're gonna look great. Follow the "30-day Rule" and I seriously doubt you'll ever look back.
Keep in touch with the board so everyone can share in your success!

Hey,
Minox? I assume it's some hair regain stuff? IMO I wouldn't bother.... Rep what you have, if you have none go sly!
Re: 21 ... I'm 23 and repping the look.
Anyway in the end... Do what's right for you, as long as your happy the rest will follow!
Goodluck
