Bit of a strange question, but has probably been the only thing that has ever bothered me about going bald. 

Does it matter to any of you guys how bald you are?  It is probably the only thing that I still obsess about having gone through the whole hair loss thing!  What I mean is, my hair has all gone on top, but has also gone from around 30% of the side of my head, at times this drives me crazy with neurosis thinking that god i am only 27 and my hair has gone so much worse than other guys.  I also have dark hair so the shadow is always there and quite noticeable.   Whilst I am sure this is not the case, i thought i would post and banish this final demon.  I am determined to reach the day very soon when i look in a mirror to shave without analysing the way i look.  I feel that time is getting close - the guys on this site have helped.

I should add that head on I am pretty happy, just as ugly as i was with hair  i dont think much changes, but i do obsess about my profile a bit.  I have posted a pic in the gallery, but not sure how to do linky things.  But........what do you guys think?  Can you be too sly?

You look like your a good looking guy from the side view in the gallery so you shouldnt worry about it!

The problem with hairloss is that we worry that we will be less attractive to the opposite sex, so the question that you have got to ask yourself is, do you get more ladies now than you used to?

BTW the rate that Im going Ill have the same hairline as you by the time Im 27, well at least I think I will. But I have one good thing about my hair, its blonde!!! So not much shadow, and it will go grey in the next 10 years!!!

All I can say is, I do care abit as in "Im too young!" but then again I think "Im better looking than some guys!", "I get well paid" and "Im in fairly good shape".

The answer is Yes. You can be too sly, and I'm living proof. 

If i could have predicted one person's answer it would have been Schro's.

Hey people don't want "good", they want consistency.

well since your already in a committed relationship i wouldnt worry about it...she met you when you were shaved so obviously she liked you as you are,and liked you for you and even is having your kid.

Consider yourself 'lucky' Argyle.  The less hair you have, the better it looks IMHO.  You are rocking the look.  I'm stuck with this ugly mug, but at least I have a smooth head.

A truely SLY guy or gal who was too SLY would be too SLY to admit it so the answer is obviously NO!

Being "too sly" is like being "too happy" or "too successful".  It's not really possible.  I know what you're saying about the hair loss thing, but it's out of your control and you should take some pride in knowing that you've done the best thing possible to improve your appearance.  We all obsess about certain perceived appearance flaws.  In most cases, the rest of the world doesn't even notice these "flaws."

This is an exciting time of your life.  A lot of great things are happening and are going to happen.  Enjoy them to the fullest and don't worry about unimportant things like how many hairs you have to shave off your head each morning.
