New Guy Here, Would Like some encouragement by BaldnBearded on 03 Dec, 2008 23:30

Hey guys, what's going on? My name is Chris and I'm 22 years old.I've been in denial the last few years but its getting har to ignore the fact that I'm balding.My crown is really beggining to thin out and all the hair on top of my head is thinning.I think with a little encouragement I could shave my head bald, but my issues is im fully bearded right now and want to remain this way.It's cold here in the Northeast and I'm growing out my beard to an inch, maybe two.I have a very thick beard and I'm guessing it wouldn't look good with a bald head huh?I'm really self concious about my hair and would like to eventually shave my head butat the same time do not want to get rid of or trim my beard.Have any young guys here (or anyone for that matter) sported a longer styled beard and a bald head?Any help or encouragement is greatly appreciated.Hopefully I can jump in and really become a part of this board.

you cant tell from my pic cuz its an older pic but i have a 2 1/2 inch beard right now. i HAVE to have my beard when i shave my head or else i look like a giant penis lol. if you go bald definately keep the beard.
actually............do you have a pic? it would be easier to tell. headshape plays a role in it too.
btw. im only 20 and im balding so dont worry man. i dont have the same pattern as you but i honestly consider mine worse. i barely have a harline. i just have this long thin strip. it sucks

welcome to the forum; I recommend: take the plunge and shave your head; a bald shaved head looks great with a well trimmed beard.
Just do it; you won't regret it. -

Welcome. Plenty of guys here have full beards. Shave it and give it 30 days.

Bald with full beard looks cool. Wish I had a thicker beard myself, would like
to try it too. -

so you guys really think me being 22 years old could pull off being bald with a 1.5-2inch long beard in a professional setting?My work is very cool (im a dental hygieniest) but I feel like its gonna be a radical change.I don't want to trim this beard down but at the same time I rally would like to try being bald to take my mind off my thinning hair

I'd say yes, definitely. You should put up a picture of yourself so we have a better idea what you're workin with. If your hair is thinning and it's bothering you, shave it down man. You'll LOVE it!
