- if you have curly, greasy, very hard to style hair, shaving it all of can be a liberating experience
- less maintenance in the morning of before going out
cons:
- on most of you guys, it looks horrible and repulsive. don't believe what most of these bald crusaders are saying here. looking good while being bald means: you have the right head shape. stop kidding yourself, unless you have a perfectly round head without any dents or other funny shapes, you mostly will be tolerated but not very much appreciated anywhere. the next thing is facial features such as a beard (stubble rox), strong chin etc.
- if you are fat and don't work out, you are screwed. hit the gym, change your dient and look like a fucking man and not some obnoxious slob
- women. no matter what you hear from women, the really hot ones would rather burn in boiling oil than having to settle for a bald guy if they have a choice. usually, women settling for bald guys are the ones that can't really have high demands themselves. think about it, you know it's true ;)
- if you are in your early or mid-20s, YOU WILL BE EXCLUDED. being bald in such a young age does not only look incredibly repulsive, it even looks sick and not right. believe me, i've been through that and with a balding head, going for really hot women is a pointless exercise. you know why? imagine you were one of them. it changes your way if viewing things
- career. i dont care how much studies there exist that tell that bald guys look more "dominant" or stuff like that. fact is, when you work in an environment where performance pays off, guys with a more youthful look (full head of hair) will always be the first choice when deciding who gets promoted.
- if you are short (like 5'6" or shorter), being bald wont get you anything. neither women nor any noteworthy career achievements. you are simply screwed unless you go for hair replacement

I agree that working out and things such as having a good head shape are important factors, but besides that you really state things as undeniable facts that are not always the case. In my mid-twenties I don't experience ANY exclusion, career-struggles or problems with really attractive women. And I'm very sure I won't in the future either. If you feel like that is always the case, you probably miss other great attributes and not just your hair. I'm sorry to read that you have such an extremely negative outlook on hair loss, but you really over-generalize a bit.
Pro's: No wet hair after showers or rain, no bad hair days, more masculine and clean look, standing out in group/crowd, many girls love the feel of the really short buzz, the feeling of the sun on your skin
Con's: No (or little) variation options anymore, cold in the winter, the process of thinning/balding is sh*t and takes some time.

All pros no cons.
