Title: hello everyone
Post by: Danstheman on April 14, 2013, 01:57:19 PM: Hello my name is Dan im 24 my hair started thinning about a month ago while my hair line started receding when I was 18. Been a hard time not many people have noticed as ive always kept my hair pretty short anyways but it makes me feel old for my age. For the most part I stay positive, I work out a lot and train jiujitsu which makes me feel some what confident. Its made it hard for me to talk to girls now where I use to not have much problem at all. So basically im looking for some encouragement, you guys all seem like good people. I also decided to shave my hair down as far as I can and im thinking about using a razor!

It's a freeing feeling!

Go for it, it is liberating and it will suit you. I clipped for a while, then recently began shaving and I love it, me and my ATX are best buddies :)
