Title: You guys rock!
Post by: stueyccc on May 11, 2010, 09:08:59 AM

Hello all, I'm 24 and started lurking here a few months back. Always had longish hair and it started to thin a couple of years back so I just tried hiding it. It was always on my mind though and I hated wind or rain and would constantly check any mirrors I was near, wondering if people noticed. I looked into ways to remedy it but when I found your site I started to change my mind.

I felt pretty low (about the hair and some other things) but reading posts on here really helped me feel better about myself. There is some really good advice that helped me go from borderline depression into looking forward to shaving my head.

I got my hair clipped to #4 on the 3rd of March (I will forever remember that day and the feeling of freedom I had walking out of the barbers) and started to feel better straight away. But it wasn't long before I wanted to go shorter. I went to #3 and then finally #1 by the end of March. It felt strange and took me a while to get used to (I'm nearly there now though) but I felt so much happier for it. I'm going to go even shorter pretty soon, just building the confidence to do it (i know, maybe thats silly cos im nearly there already but I have hardly seen any totally bald students where i go to uni so am a little nervous about it).

Anyway, the point of all this is that I really wanted to thank everyone on here for making a difference to me at a difficult time in my life (and who knows how many others who just havent posted?). Thanks, you guys are awesome!  O0
