I've changed. I'm much cooler since shaving off all my bad hair.
+ 1
The only way shaving my head changed me was making me feel 'cooler'. I gained a ridiculous amount of self confidence that never would have been possible with my excuse for hair. Take the plunge. -

Hey there, first let me say I've been looking around and the forum looks great, really supportive to guys concerned with the issue of losing their hair.
Ok, here's my [short] story...
I like things which are cool... of course we all do, but I think 'coolness' is on my mind moreso than others. Growing up I've hung around people who to me were cool, listened to music I thought was cool, I've tried to act cool, look cool... you get the idea!
I can relate to this, SO MUCH!
I have a very laid back attitude, and don't take anything seriously... however, that's been because I was confident in my beliefs, and my 'attitude' or style. Part of that package is obviously the way I look... but since losing a lot of my hair I worry that when I shave, that 'attitude' won't be there.
It's hard to describe, but the way I am, the cheeky smiles and sarcastic nature... it feels like that will have to change. Why? I'm not the biggest guy, but I look ok, without hair though I'll look thin and odd in the clothes I currently wear. That makes me think I'll need to change how I dress, but what about the way I speak?
I'm 23 but act younger, I can't imagine fooling around without hair. I feel like I will need to harden up... grow up. People I see with bald heads either seem like a typical hard working guy, a tough guy, or... sad. I fear I'll fall into the latter category because I'm not at all 'hard'.
What I guess I'm asking is... did anyone change when they decided to go sly? I really feel like getting rid of my receeding hair will also get rid of some other part in me. Like I said it's hard to describe, hope someone understands.
