Hello all,
I am new to this site and joined because I am in need of advice as I am currently contemplating going sly. For the past couple of years (college years) I have been able to somewhat conceal it but it has recently made a tremendous breakthrough and there is no hiding it anymore. I have just graduated college, which makes me feel a little better as I won't be completely bald in the college setting, but I am starting a new job in a few months and figured that may be the right time to do it and get a fresh start meeting new people. It is typical male pattern baldness and I am receding in the front as well as thinning around the crown and so forth. I have been getting comments from a lot of people about "going bald" and "how young I am", which leads to "you look so old." As these comments continue I am getting sick of hearing them and wanted to hear some people's opinions/experience that they had gone through around the same age.
To give you a little background, I am a pretty small kid. I am 5'5, maybe 5'6 on a good day, but I am in good shape and have a toned body. I have never had trouble with getting girls or anything in that category but the fact of letting my head completely go sly at such a young age is just hard to accept.
I have thought about just buzzing it down using the "balding clipper" or around a grade 1, but I think that it may even look worse at that point than just going completely sly. So I am in this predicament and would appreciate any advice that anyone may be able to extend me.
Thank you!
