Does it get easier?

Yup, met a gal years ago that I was just nuts about. She was very pretty and a kind , loving person. I ended up rejecting her because she had massive tattoos, mostly hidden, but massive. I know there are a small number of women that LOVE guys with shaved heads, would be great to find one!

I started losing my hair in my mid-20s. Went from buzzing my hair to zero grade soon as. I know for me my life has done a 180 since. I'd hoped that as I got older I'd of met women who weren't that put off by it. I'm in my 40s now haven't dated since. Do you have to change your outlook and expectations? I find it quite difficult.

Tinca tinca, sorry to hear this but I'm not surprised. I've made posts on this site earlier saying how bald guys do have a disadvantage when it comes to dating. These guys call themselves sly or whatever, the truth remains is that women are less attracted to the guy who has no hair, regardless of whether they're confident, smart etc etc. We all like to think that women look beyond just outward appearance and of course they do to some extent, especially as they get older, however the truth remains bald men in general don't have much luck.
I've said this before but I'm still yet to see many bald guys with attractive women. Next time you're out and you see a couple where one guy is bald, look at the woman he's with... she's unlikely to be a looker. She might have a decent body but then not great looking or vice versa. I've seen many ok looking bald guys with slightly bigger women and this of course is because they themselves are the "female bald equivalent" so it makes sense they find each other.
All I can say to you is that I understand. Like you I started losing my hairline in my mid 20s and now at 34 I am totally bald. Even though I am dark skinned and have the face type for a bald look, I know I don't attract as many women as I did in my 20s when I did have enough hair and even when I was around 30 with my buzz cut which actually looked even better than full head of hair. Totally bald just puts women off sadly. I want to think different but we just have to work harder.

Yeah, I've not been on a date since I was 25. I'd had buzz cuts since I was 20 but when I started receding at 25/26 I went down to the bone with balding clippers and kept it that way, still have a bit of stubble on top. tried wet shaving but didn't really like the feel.
I'd never really had problems getting dates before this. Facially I'm reasonably attractive and people think I'm in my early thirties, I've been a gymaholic since I was 15 and spent my late teens early twenties bodybuilding. I still train now but have come down to 220lbs @ 10% bf and looking to compete in powerlifting and strongman in my weight category.
I think getting knocked back by so many women has killed my self-esteem, I prefer women who are on the bigger side too. I've had to watch all my mates sleeping around and getting married and having families so it's been pretty rough the last 15 years.
PS. I have friends who are bald who have stunning looking girlfriends and wives, but generally they were in relationships before they started losing their hair.

Sorry dude, yeah I understand how this feels. I feel the same, not really having much luck myself with the women that I want to date and find attractive. Like you, I seemed to have more attention when I had hair and even a buzz cut but now it's the baldness that is a turn off.
I guess it just helps to keep thinking "it only takes one" so you never know.
How do you usually meet women and when you say you keep getting knocked back, you mean rejected? Is this online or when you ask them out on dates etc.?
