I have a pretty weird shaped head that dips down across the middle. It almost looks like I have two peaks on my head. On top of this, it slightly bulges out on the sides. 23 and balding, I'm not sure what my options are and it's really killing my self-esteem/confidence.

your head looks pretty normal, you wouldn't have any issues with shaving, it's a common concern which is generally unfounded

Your head shape looks completely normal, the ridge that you talk about may be an optical issusion in part caused by the shaping of your hair line , the almost island a time the front and main body behind giving the impression of two peaks. If so the bald look would remove that. It takes a little while to adjust but try it and own it, be confident in who you are.

Your head shape is fine. You’re nearly there with the buzz. Give it a go.

you look fine with short buzz, go ahead and shave you will like it - that is what counts.

I appreciate the comments guys, maybe I'm just hyper focusing on it. Still a bit worried how it will look completely shaved, but I will post pictures when that happens.

Female here. Just my $0.02, yes, you are probably hyper-focused (which we all tend to do from time to time). I have recently gone from a decade on-and-off of #1 buzzcuts to bald (all by choice, no general reason). I'm pretty sure I'll settle at no-guard level for maintenance purposes. People tell me all the time "I could never do that, my head is odd-shaped" and I tell them that I was always nervous as I can feel a legit lump in the front of my head. I point it out to them and they all notice it - I did it anyway. It kept me from taking the leap from #1 to bald but, I'm not gonna lie, once I went bald, there was zero difference from a lumpy perspective. I say do what pleases you but try not to be hyper-focused on shape. Every lumpy head is different but all heads have some sort of lump :) Not to be cliche, and it may have been stated here already, but those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. I find my buzzcut and now bald head actually help me "see" who the quality people are in my life and who might be quality walking into my life. Finally, most people are (legit) so self-consumed with their own lives that they really aren't taking much stock in your hair/head. Any neg comments just reflects on them, not you. Go for it... try it once. If you don't like it, you'll be back at a buzzcut in less than a week. I strongly believe you'll see no difference from a head-shape perspective. Again, my $0.02 which is worth maybe $0.01!

Jason Statham has the same head shape!

If it makes you feel any better, I'm 23 and balding, I have almost the same exact head shape as you, only I have an offset knot on my head and I have a bigger forehead. I tried finasteride but it hurt my balls...
