Hi everyone.
Suffering from mpb, can't do much with my hair these days. I have self-image issues, and consider my profile (head from the side) to be rather ridiculous.
I feel the back of my head is smaller than my face, and doesn't necessarily jut out very much (is flat). My head is on the smaller side.
Was hoping I could get your opinions. Would going sly help with this, I was hoping to maybe give it a shot tomorrow. Or would it make my small-ish head appear worse? Finally, is it really that bad? Or am I perhaps making it out to be worse than it is.

First few photos best show my concern.
Any input is appreciated, much thanks.

That looks like one perfectly normal head to me.
But I understand the self-image issues. I think most of us have something we're unhappy about. We look at ourselves through a magnifying glass and notice the smallest 'errors'. I don't see a small head, or a flat and small back of the head and I doubt anyone else will either.
You'll look great with a shaved head. Just be sure to keep the smile ;)

Mush, I'm looking forward to seeing your bald head in the morning. It will look excellent. It will solve the problem of looking like your hair is thinning. It's pretty rare that you find a guy that does not look good with shaved/bald head. This is a good time to start the 30 day rule.
Let's see the new you in the morning.
See PalmerProjects comments. He just shave his head this morning for the first time and he loves it already. I liked my shaved head the first day out and haven't looked back since.
-
I'm no expert, but I think you've got everything going in your favor to be sly.
Post back how it goes (tomorrow).
-
Welcome! As they always say, if you don't like it you can always grow it back...but most people don't bother!
-
shave it close-see if you like it.
-
your head is fine, you are just making it worse than it is. welcome to the shaved sly society. go ahead and shave it smooth.
-
Head is fine , I agree you will look great sly
-
Dude.... you're worrying way too much about things that just don't matter. You would look great shaved and your confidence will probably soar!
-
Nothing to see here...I say go for it! Follow the 30 day rule and if you don't like it, grow your hair back.
-
Go for it - -You are a handsome young man - -and you will look even better when you shave it all off.
If you don't like it - - -it does grow back - - Once you shave the dome - you will really enjoy being "a smooth domed guy" SLY BALD

Don't over-analyze yourself, mushr. You have no reason to worry about your outward appearance. Just give baldness a try and see if it works for you. I personally think it'll suit you well. The best way to go about it is to just dive right in.
Best of luck! O0
-
There's only one way to find out. Go for it. You may very well like your new appearance.
Good luck.
-
Try it, you can always grow it back.
Your hair loss is not that bad, though
-
i started my 30 days yesterday and i wish i would have done it sooner. i say go it, i dont think you will regret it. i know i dont.
-
Do it!
Your head will look fine! Everyone worries about this before they take the plunge.
-
Yes, IMO, you are making it out worse than it is. Actually there isn't any problem that I see. You are a (very) good looking guy (IMO), and I think the sly look would be VERY good on you. If you have self-image issues, it WILL affect what you see in the mirror. Believe me, I know where you're coming from on this.
Go Sly and try it out. Couldn't hurt.

Your head looks completely normal..
I think a lot of people think their profile looks odd (I do)...
You'll look fine...and if you don't like it, it's pretty amazing how fast it will grow back...
-
do it, you'll like it. I guarantee it.
