Title: I just shaved my head and im worried
Post by: vinnievandall 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.

Your fine don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

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.

Hey Vinnie, the new bald look you're sportin' looks cool!  It's your first time...so give it time and you'll grow into the new look.

Everyone here has all said what I’ll say also.  It takes you getting used to it.   Once you are, and proud of how the bald head looks it’s contagious everyone around you will see you’re a new man!   They’ll come around soon enough and if not it is your bald head and they’ll just have to come to terms with it!  It is “your” new haircut for Crying out loud  not theirs.   Haircut looks great!

true that about 'will see you're a new man'  it took me a while and balls  to show up to college bald, after a summer break, but it defined me moving forward for good. i certainly feel more 'manly' now, as I did back then.

I think it looks fine and you just and your girlfriend need some time to adjust.  As was said before, give it the full 30 days.

What everyone is saying here is true. It takes a couple weeks to get use to the new look. Your head shape looks great you are rocking the bald look.

Nothing to be worried about, we all have imperfections if you look for them, just get used to it.  O0

It actually took me YEARS to get used to it even though people TRIED to tell me that it looked just fine - better, in fact, than the thin grey mess I was hanging onto. 

FINALLY, after keeping it shaved for a full year and then letting it grow again for two weeks I COULDN'T STAND HOW I LOOKED "WITH" HAIR!!!!!

So; "go figure"; it was all in my head  = Really!
