I just shaved my head and im worried
« on: November 24, 2018, 04:28:48 AM »
Hi,
Im new here and i just shaved my head because i was balding nw3 with difuse thinning. And im not really satisfied with the results. My head seems out of proportion in the front and at the sides it looks small in the front and large at the back what are your thoughts ps. please be honest

Kind regards

Nah man, it's perfectly fine. It's normal to be a little self conscious when you start shaving but really, you have nothing to worry about. It's important to feel good about yourself inside, that will translate to how you carry yourself and how others perceive you...not that other people's opinion matters at all.

You need more beard, helps to balance the face. ;)

First , welcome to SBG . Your doubts on the new look is something many of us have. But you look fine , it’s a big change and takes awhile to adjust . We always say give it 30 days, then see how you like or don’t. Other people will make remarks pro  and con , but that will stop , they will take it as natural soon enough.

Welcome
Your head shape is normal and the look is strong. Keep with it for the 30 days to adjust

Welcome, like the others said, you look great and just need some time to adjust.  I also think a larger beard would help.

“No really; it is all in your head!” (really poor attempt at humor)

 but seriously, we are all our own worst critics.  your head shape looks just fine and you look really clean and athletic with the shaved head!

 so tell us how you FEEL.

looks great to me.  btw, the imbalance you're thinking of us caused by LENS distortion from your phone. IRL, i'm sure you look as good as any of us.

your eyes are most critical now because of the newness. give it some more time.   btw, I'm thinking you have more of an oval shaped face.  some are square, round, etc.  No big deal.

There is nothing wrong or abnormal with your look, you, and others, just need to adjust to the change.  You do have an Oval face (which is also normal).  If you want it to look wider, more beard length will give your face a wider look.

Its easy to find imperfection when one looks for it.  Its everywhere.  God knows I've found every imperfection to be found when I shaved a couple of weeks ago. 

Others have basically told me to relax for 30 days.  It was good advise.  Shaving your head is a big change and it brings about various emotion.  You're fine bro, go buy your girlfriend a nice dinner and see where it goes.
