I'll have to admit that before I started losing my hair I was no different than any of the people mocking him. Both my parents have amazing hair at their age so I never thought I'll start balding. Whenever I saw a quite bald person he would not even register as a person for me, most of the time my intial thoughts are "that's just so ugly" and anything that he did or try to show would just be to compensate for the baldness.
In fact, if I saw that before and after of prince William back then I'd probably think "wow he really let himself go", not realising that it has nothing to do with letting himself go, his baldness just kicked in.
I was went on a bus after my gym work out, chest + tris, I still had a good pump left and was wearing a wife beater so obviously you can see the physique better that way. So anyway once I get on the bus there were a bunch of probably 14 y.o. girls with the mouth of a sailor, they all started going "wowowowo what a body, flex ur muscles, but too bad about ur face".
Then later on a bunch of guys got on the bus and one of them had crown thinning, one of them girls said something the lines "dude, you in the grey shirt, you're balding, there are meds available nowadays, go get treated", and this was coming out of the mouth of a 14 y.o. girl... I was really raging as I thought to myself that how f*****g clueless that girl is, hair loss is not a joke, it's an endless vicious cycle of trial and error on the way to Norwood cemetary. There are no treatments without side effects, literally all treatments have some sort of a side effect, is she even aware of that? And even if that guy started treating his hairloss, his crown would most likely still remain bald. I hope that chick goes bald herself or marries the love of her life that has the NW7 clock ticking on him.
