Hello, I'm new here, and I am relieved to see that I am not the only one who has started balding early. I'm 19 and started balding at 17, the beginning of my senior year in high school. Instead of looking like my dad with a monk kind of hair style, or horseshoe, i decided to shave my head last week. I actually like having a total bald head. As some of you stated before, it's all about your personal confidence, as my girlfriend of 3 years finds my baldness more attractive than when I had hair. So far I have found this forum very informative, as I first came here looking for shaving techniques and products.
