18 and bald!
« on: March 10, 2013, 09:49:57 PM »
      Well, i'm a brazilian guy (so sorry for my bad english!) and  i started to lose my hair when i was around 16, something that really bothered me...that old story again: receding hairline, bald spot,  sadness, low self-esteem...i went to some doctors and dermatologists who prescibed me propecia, but i knew it would only be a temporary solution, so i never used it.

     One day, searching the internet for alternative ways to deal with my recent baldness, i found myself in this beautiful forum for confident sly guys (hahaha) and i really have to thank you guys, for giving me back my self esteem. I see how it's funny today, to find my cure to baldness in a forum for bald people!

      Well, only today (more than 2 years after my problems begun) i decided to shave my head, and I feel just fine!!! I was using the buzz cut for some months, since after my baldness got worse and people really started noticing it, but it wasn't enough (nature was stronger, my bald spot was still noticeable...). If it wasn't for this forum, i would never have the guts to do it.

       I've seen some guys like me around, and what i've learned is that more important than your head is the way you fell about it. Bald, almost-bald, starting-to-lose-hair, it really just matter to ourselves. I, for example, have never noticed balding people around before.
    
       Thank you all again!

Welcome. I think it's an impressive improvement for you.

And now you never need to worry about "balding" again. Relax and enjoy!

Thanks for joining the conversation. Nice story. Relax and enjoy your new style.  It looks crisp and clean. There are plenty of young guys here who share what you've been going through, as well as some old timers who just know the advantages of being bald from experience.
