How to know if I would look good bald

[shookwun]

Slight recession, but nothing to lose sleep over. There's definitely something you can do about it if you wish to go that route. I don't think you're a total troll, but your concern for your rather minimal hair loss was bound to anger some of the dudes on here that have it way worse.

It's not even anger rather insecurity, and plain jealously. The thought of having hair loss at your hands and being able to do something about it. Something the bitter crew didn't succeed in doing so.

why is everyone disregarding him.

Because noobs like this guy post garbage photos, AS USUAL. Every single new member should have no ability to post photos unless they know how to take a damn photo. It's NOT that hard. Most of these privileged low norwoods come on here and waste everyones time by posting pictures that are either blurry, out of focus, underexposed, overexposed, wrong angle, etc. Then you get like 20 members on the forum arguing about the legitimacy of the pics, the guys hair loss, potential tricks, etc.

Rule should be clear:

Proper photos or get the fvck out.

Hellouser, I can understand your frustration, but maybe you should do what UCman does and simply ignore threads like this, for the sake of your own blood pressure.

These low Norwoods might be irritating but they're not breaking any board rules

I am not upset at all,but I don't understand why are you?

I posted this topic so we can generally discuss about head shape and balding so that some of us don't have to be afraid that it would look bad IF THERE IS some "rule" that determine that....

I posted pics randomly to see opinions on my head shape and how it would look if I was bald

Those before pics are 2 years old so the angle or whatever was not important.... I really went in wrong direction,hope that the purpose of this topic is clear now-please comment on that, I did not at any moment wanted to spam or be disrespectful

If I was,just ban me,block or delete me and this topic.. Wish you all the best!

What is going on here, a guy asks a normal question and everyone just attacks him. He has some bad looking recession, he's soon to be a NW3, and that is the moment when a person has to start shaving/buzzing head.

I don't have a problem with the early norwoods. What gets on my nerves are the end of the world/desperate guys that will only use natural treatments. It's just a pet peeve of mine. I can't stand guys that come here and want help, but refuse to help themselves.

True shookwun, I've had bitter guys in their 50's who had been bald since their 20's harshly criticize my hair transplant at 24 and I suspect it's because they didn't have that option in their time.

As I always say, if it's not jealousy it surely looks like it! They repeat over and over again that I will go full NW7 anyway, that I'll lose hair on the sides etc.

And who knows? They might be right, if there is some kind of absolute curse on me. In the meantime, I already look like I have hair, and life has been good the past few months.

I suspect that it will continue like this for months, years, and they can't stand that fact, they want the men who had a chance to do something about it to suffer as much as they did.

I know what you mean, I told my dad about how I want to stop my hair loss from happening and he just is dismissive and tells me its going to fall out anyway so why bother? I'm thinking if you had the same opportunity and did a little research you'd do the same thing! My uncle joked about his bald spot and I mentioned Rogaine, since it seemed perfect for his male pattern baldness, and he dismissed it as well calling it snake oil. Some people dont want to see you get better ya know?

There's worse:

Guys that do nothing to read into new treatment and do a little bit of research about other potentially superior treatments. Complacency is the absolute worst because THIS attitude is what stalls progress... the guys that say 'well, finasteride and minoxidil are good enough... what are you gonna do?'

Yeah, great message to send to the hair loss industry, like we dont need anything better after 20+ years of being limited to the same GARBAGE treatments.

Can we get these trolls banned? Why are there so many knobs on this site pretending they've got hair loss?

He states quite clearly these pics are BEFORE he started going bald. He is asking our opinion on his head shape.

Rogaine is good for spot treatment with minimal miniaturization such as temple points. It's not optimal for large areas.

All these drugs are mean't to do is prevent the inevitable progression of male pattern baldness. IT'S ALL MAINTENANCE, AND WITHOUT FINASTERIDE YOU'RE FIGHTING A LOOSING BATTLE REGARDLESS OF 5-AR AND FOLLICLE SENSITIVITY TO DHT.

Dad and uncle both wouldnt believe Propecia was a real working drug. There's no getting through some of those old school type of folks, they think everything is a scam lol, didn't even bother mentioning something like RU or spironolactone.

In my opinion a shaved head is far better than a few hairs sitting on top of your head, just do it.
