Guy Posts Tons Of Cope And Then Has Meltdown

[JohnsonDDG]

I've just found a brilliant post about how different men handled balding and I was really enjoying the read. There was a ton of cope in there but it was quite nice to hear from men who was living as balding men and still living decent, functional lives.

But then the writers decided to shave his own balding head and this is what he had to say:

'Well, I did it. Okay, technically, Jessie did it. But OMG, it's done. We met at my studio, I gave a toast to Michael Jordan, my friend John, everyone who shaves their head in the word, and Jessie proceeded to take it off. Besides Jessie hurting my scalp at times from her aggressiveness (I swear, she LOVED doing this), I actually felt pretty calm while it was happening. It wasn't until later that night when all the fun wore off and the reality of my situation hit me. I knew I had to live with this look for months to come, and that wasn't a pleasant feeling.

So, how do I feel now that I shaved my hair off? Well, I’ve been kinda depressed. I feel very unattractive. I'm completely self-conscious about it. The whole thing is just making me get all existential about my inevitable death. It's making me question a lot of things surrounding my identity and my ego. I just don't feel like “me.” I feel like a hack. I feel like a has-been. I feel old and washed up. I feel like I've crossed the threshold of my prime. I feel like I don't know who this person is in the mirror. I feel...stupid for saying all this, but it's the truth. I looked at my naked head in the mirror for 5 minutes the night we shaved it. I didn't like it one bit. I looked at my face, my eyes, my nose and my ears. It's amazing how hair changes our entire appearance. I saw my biological dad in my reflection again. With his thinning hair, I saw him. I saw his life and his home and his decisions. I saw myself in 10, 20, 30 years.'

Does anyone else think he actually looks better bald?

Going for the pasty, inflamed decaying ghoul appearance

Great every day look

After seeing this I went and looked at myself in the mirror, and reflected back on my shaved head pick up experiences. The result are that I feel blessed in comparison.




As for this poor fella, I believe his biggest downfall is his complexity, skin tone and light hair. Doesn't have the appearance of facial hair and eye brows.

Umm.. I think he looked OK with a bit of short, even though wispy, hair on top, as the sides were nice and short from the clippers. This looked good, I think.
A bit of style.

Maybe he could of made that work, who knows?

You think he is unlucky?

I think he is perhaps around a 6 out of 10 and the hair loss doesn't really kill his looks. He could still date as a bald man I imagine.

I was more highlighting it as an example of how it can destroy the ego - sometimes regardless of whether it makes us look good or bad.

I can relate to this so much. As horrible looking as my bieber-esq comb over was I could some what "cope" .shaving made me reach rock bottom.

Me too. I've decided to keep my hair and just have this style if/when I lose another Norwood:

I don't feel like me when I shave it bald. I'd rather in some ways look worse and still have hair if that can make any sense.

 

[sunchyme1]

i dont think he looks too bad really.

got the height, body, good shape head. not bad looking.

maybe get his eye brows done and a tan and i think hed look ok

for now tho he should def keep it short at the sides and back.

 

[resu]

Yep he needs a beard and glasses if wants to not get cancer comments because of the lack of eyebrows.

You decide

Brutal. Dying fetus

What I flounder interesting is wit in the comment section every women liked him at his 1 month appearance. Where he looks most.masculine

looks handsome one month

should keep to this. buzz cut and stubble, nice t shirt.

On a lighter note: I enjoyed reading the words "cope" and "meltdown" in the same sentence.

@sunchyme1 what do you mean by get his eyebrows "done?"

I don't think he looks too bad. The height thing is crucial. One area that I was mercifully given a genetic break (I'm about 6'3".) Ironically i didn't like being tall as an adolescent. Just wanted to be the same as my peers. But anyway, yeah.

When he had hair at the beginning of the video it was styled horribly.

eyebrow thickening/transplant if thats even possible. need strong thick eye brows to pull off the balding look. well to look better anyway. which thank f*** ive been blessed with. thick as f***

[sunchyme1]

However, the truth is they eventually grow tired of it and move on... it is not a sustainable appearance in my opinion

i think its fine mate

i mean you could say this about a guy in general......they get tired of you and move on

as long as your handsome and fit with some hair as a thin buzzcut i cant imagine ever having a problem with girls

seann william scott. 40 years old

cant imagine him having a time with the ladies....regardless of his wealth and fame. just based on looks

The aesthetic game is basically over for me if I ever advance beyond NW2/3

Pasty manlet pretty boy = maintain hair at all costs

he needs to stop smiling so much. Loses like 3 masculinity points.

You got your game plan. Don't ever give up. Just remember, you can still save your image with a huge bank account. So make sure you have that as a back up plan just in case.

I found it ironic how all the women preferred his second picture, given he didn't look his best on a male stand point. Goes to show that a little masculinity, scruff, and a stony look can over look baldness in certain ways.
