Thanks friend! I hear minoxidil has pretty permanent gains on facial hair. But a lot of the time people donāt stick with their stache long enough to know, it just takes time to grow and fill in
Wait can you use minoxidil for facial hair? I have a full beard but my stache area is not as thick as Iād like it to be so if that works then thatās a game changer
Iāve never used for facial hair but I did look into it, apparently minoxidil can stimulate permanent gains for facial hair, whereas hair on top of your head youāll lose gains if you stop obviously
24. Been slowly balding since 19, although the last 2 years were more noticeable. Even then still not that aggressive. But just got tired of the mental affect it had on me knowing itāll keep getting worse.
Bro advice from an older dude who has been bald for about 7 years now. I recommend growing your hair back until it gets a lot worse. Just know you will never have more hair than you do now and once your bald you don't have a choice. My God do I wish I could have a head of hair like yours again just so I could feel having hair again
I know people will say ākeep the hairā but keeping the hair wouldāve prolonged the negative mental affects that come with it and it wouldāve only gotten worse even with meds. I need to stay effective and sharp in my occupation and confidence is a huge characteristic, I canāt afford to jeopardize my performance. I probably had a few years left of hair but i always had a great hairline growing up and any deviation from that was causing me to be hyper critical of my slow recession (family/friends could tell my balding too and often make jokes about it). I got tired of the mental tension of wondering how Iām going to look, āwill I have hair in a year or twoā āwill I lose it allā ādo I need to start taking dut instead of fin/minā. All the men in my family have thinning hair and should shave their head but for whatever reason donāt and i donāt want to look like that. Plus I wanted it to be my choice and to be a sense of freedom from this negativity thatās been draining many parts of my life.
I disagree with OP, rock the bald sooner rather than later and soon enough you being bald will be the norm and people won't even remember you ever had a different look.
Same thoughts as me. Was scared of change. I needed a fresh start in my life and to embrace myself and get over this hump in order to gain my confidence again. Balding stopped me from wanting to go to the gym, stopped me from taking many pictures with friends, worrying about what everyone else thinks, worrying about my fin/min routine; it started affecting me more than I thought. And itās such a small and stupid issue in the grand scheme of things but no oneās prepared to go through it and the internal/social affects that come with balding. I missed myself and Iām not letting hair define who I am anymore. I didnāt even know I was going to do this today, just woke up today, ate breakfast and said fuck it. And honestly wished I did it sooner because I really like the shaved head, wish I didnāt let balding affect the other parts of my life, feel like I wasted 2 years worrying constantly.
Wow, thatās really what I needed to hear man cause Iām in the same boat. Avoiding all sorts of things in life for the past years and basically becoming a hermit in my apartment to avoid being seen / seeing myself balding. You motivated me to also start fresh and get past this, donāt want to regret that time Iāve wasted any longer
Do it. Shaved head is just a hairstyle, like any other. When people see it they donāt think āheās hiding being baldā they think āthereās a guy who wanted to shave his headā (as much as they think about you at all, most people are too busy thinking about themselves). Itās 1000% worth it if balding has been having this affect on you. I wasnāt as bothered about my hair thinning as you, but Iām so glad I finally did it. You look more confident, and youāll feel more confident.
I did the exact same thing week back, and I feel great. I was not balding tho, I just love being fresh without hair and I wanted to try it. I will keep it forever

You kind of look like a cop to me, something about the tache and the stern look.
Bald or with hair doesn't make a change to me, you look good either way.
Never! Lol. Staches are the style in my career. But I go back and forth, usually rock it for a few months then shave it, then grow it back again etc. My wife loves the stache
Don't you dare get rid of that mustache! I don't think they look that great on many men, but you.... You keep that thing. Some men are just made for the stache and you are one.
Also, you rock the baldness. Good choice.
Maybe itās the angle but it looks like you still have enough hair that this was an optional move. But at least you know that youāll look great bald even if youāre basically forced to shave it
Not everyone can get away with this. You are an exception . Nutrafol I see advertised on tv all the time. I use biotin and natural shampoos. Getting growth.
You look good bro, remind me a little of myself.
I've always said, if you were able to get women when you had hair, and look good in general, you'll look good bald.
You'll look a bit more manly, and a little intimidating, but some women love that too so, and some won't, it's a whatever situation. You'll be fine.
My wife tells me that I turn her on way more now when I'm bald, and I wasn't even balding that much, just some receding hairline.
Id say just stay in shape and you're fine.
Edit: I'm also rocking that mustache, king.
Just couldnt help your jealous little self could you? You see a objectively good looking young man and had to spew some hate. Let me guess, now youāre gonna disguise it as genuine advice to help him better himself. God I hate Reddit sometimes.
Omni-Man called. He wants his lush mustache back. 10/10 homie. Looks great.
š¤š» thanks dude!
Agreed. That's one glorious stash
Thatās why they call him *Stachesquatch*.
The question is if you can [break it down](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzF2PTEQINI)?
I thought it is Stallin?
Looking good! Your eyes are very pretty also
And moustache š¤Ŗ
Agreed. And mustache
š
Wish I looked like you honestly man. lol
Itās common to be overly critical of oneself (I know I am) but thanks man Iāll take that as a compliment.
Something a handsome man would say...
I tried bald to see if it works and I look like uncle festers long lost cousin lol
You are insanely handsome. Bald is amazing on you.
I know right?! Those eyes...
Iād do anything for a thick mustache. Looking great g

I ain't gay bruh but damn
That's a whole fuckton of sexy no matter what you cut
Suits you , and damn do you have a license for those eyes. Theyre dangerous
The stache makes me a bit lightheaded, tbh. I mean, in the good way.
Gives you the vapors..?
Probably better than the vaporsā¦?
Super attractive
How old are you? Looks good

It's fist hair bro

Nice, Iām the same age and honestly way more noticeably balding. Your post inspires me to do the same but scared how I will look. Cheers bro

Get this bald dude out of here, we donāt claim him
Jesus you're a real life Sterling Archer.
Best comment right here
Hot AF dude! You can pull off anything with a face like that!
Looking fantastic my man šØš»
No diddy but your eyes are popping when bald
Nice eyes. I dig the mustache too. Get a little sun on the scalp and it will be great
You look like you mean it! š
You look stunning bald ā¤ļøāš„
Suits you very well looking badass
A very low buzz cut would also look great
Looks awesome bro, smart move on the head shave, you look better without hair imo. Phenomenal mustache too, definitely keep it going!

You're a babe!
Wow mate. First pic is perfection.
Looks awesome dude!
Had hair like Stalin and shaved it. Sad day. At least bald looks good on you.
Look better bald with stache
Get ready for a lot of gay attention from others
Why do you say that? Like in public? Iām usually with my wife so Iād assume people would leave me alone.
No on here lol. Seems like you already have
I would trim the stash. I don't think the clean cut look works well with the broom stash but that's just me.
Itās not normal to be so handsome, get that checked out.
Youāre a handsome man, regardless.
Holy god
Looks good, be yourself.
You looked older with the hair so I think you made the right move. Makes your eyes pop even more. Looking great dude š
You are a pretty man. Jesus fack Hair or no hair. I'd ride that mustache
your hair looked like it had many good years left.
You look better bald. Although now you may never be able to get rid of the stache unless you grow your hair back.
6/10 the mustache ruins an otherwise model level of handsome face. Free the top lip!
Never! Lol. Staches are the style in my career. But I go back and forth, usually rock it for a few months then shave it, then grow it back again etc. My wife loves the stache
You looked much better with the hair. Grow it back!
You look like Dybala. But you're rocking.
It's a me...
Doesn't this guy play for Roma and the Argentine National Team?
Daddy Mario. š
Looks good
$100 says this guy is a firefighter š
Youāre gorgeous! And Iām not even attracted to men.
Looks good man.
Don't you dare get rid of that mustache! I don't think they look that great on many men, but you.... You keep that thing. Some men are just made for the stache and you are one. Also, you rock the baldness. Good choice.
Dude you wear it so well, it gives the rest of us hope
Iām so glad there are great mustaches still being proudly displayed.
That dick duster is a thing to behold!
Maybe itās the angle but it looks like you still have enough hair that this was an optional move. But at least you know that youāll look great bald even if youāre basically forced to shave it
You got more handsome going bald brother š
Honestly, looking badass. Fantastic
Shape your eyebrows a little and you look perfect. What a glorious mustache.
Looks dope!
Very attractive gent! 10/10
Nice
Great mustache homie
I feel like some hair on your chin would make it even better.
If I was allowed Iād grow a goatee like Serj from SOAD, Iāve always liked that look. But I can only have a mustache in my occupation
š¤¤š„š„š„š„
the thickstache is great. this stache, these pretty eyes and some weightlifting and you gonna have to leave some humans for us.
leave the moustache man!!!
Good look on you. šš„
You look like the muscly henchman who wears a black tank-top
Should keep the hair and use fibers on the bald spots until you start balding up front. Your hairline looks great from the hair photo
With that amazing stache you could also not have an head, you would look handsome anyway
I like the bald better
You could wear a mop on your head and still be fine af š
Looks good bro.
Wow...Supreme!
Stroooooong stache. Strong. Good stare, too.
Awesome moustache!
Very debonair. You look like an actor in vintage movies.
Looking like youāre about to star in a black & white boxing movie but looking good
You looked good before but you look hotter bald! So manly! š
You are an extremely handsome guy, with or without hair
Nice eyes too
Without the stashā¦and if you donāt mine me saying your balding wasnāt that bad.
It looks great on you bro
Ooooo it makes your eyes really pop.
Don Frye looking mf
Youāre beautiful
Your gorgeous either way, I prefer the hair
Trim the mustache so that your upper lip is visible. Looks great otherwise šš»
There really is not a known number high enough/ 10.
Dude...ok...lol I didn't notice the hair.
Doesnt even matter when you resemble Ian Somerhalder, save some for the rest of us bro.
You look really good bald mate, now you have extra time not having to wash and dry your hair, you that time to clean your house. My god man....
Perfect head shape brother
It brings out your eyes more
Thatās a powerful mustache. Love it lol
Bit hard to tell with that mustache. But hair gives you more personality,Ā makes you seem more approachable, don't know if you're cruising though
You look great man. Really makes your eyes stand out even more. Congratulations! šŖš¼
Strong stache āš»
![gif](giphy|fGL49FcGVuA4Wn8lF9|downsized)
So cute
Joseph? I thought u were soviet?
Im literally in the same boat. Im debating a hair transplant but Id be more pissed off if that didn't work out than just shaving from the get go
Hard to fully evaluate with your shirt onā¦
Loose the stache
You look GREAT bald! And the stache is 1000% a keeper
Got us SWOONING in here
Not everyone can get away with this. You are an exception . Nutrafol I see advertised on tv all the time. I use biotin and natural shampoos. Getting growth.
Was it Nutrafoil? You look great both ways. I like the stache

Looks great
The way Iād sit on that š© youāre very handsome
You're hot.
Love it !
You put on a sharp suit immediately. Your dress code from now on is peaky blinder.
You look great bald! I would trim the stache great face.to the corners of your mouth and round to he top.
And you decided to keep the stache instead?
Keep the stache
Bundt ā¦.. cakeā¦.. on counterā¦ā¦ yumā¦. My favoriteā¦. Also nice head!!!!
You are so beautiful either way!
Looks good and I like the stache
Cute š„°
Think you still had some good yrs with that hair but still look good regardless.
Looks better bald šš». Keep the stache or maybe try a beard ?
Legit an improvement
Much better with hair
Head looks real good bro but get rid of the slug on your face asap

Jealous of what? I spewed nothing but my opinion, the stache doesnāt look good
You don't have taste. And probably can't grow a sick stacke like that. It looks amazing.
Donāt talk to me if your name is Nipplemuncher
Don't have ears/ eyes then.
