How to be considered HOT when bald....

[swingline747]

Beckams body looks great for his age. But he works out. the guys sure as hell still trains a lot and plays soccer and other sports in his off time. Im sure he must lift SOME weights. I highly doubt that just his regular body.
Lets also not forget how much of his life he spent running back and forth over a field and training non stop. Im sure his body has been programmed to be reactionary to a point. I will say me working out so early in life has probably made my body a bit more programmed to be a certain way and react to certain life changes differently and hopefully more positive.

I mean look at Beckhams dad, he looks like an out of shape bald goofus. I hope most of you know Beckham also had hair work done.

You have to look healthy and in shape, specially if you want to avoid some of the sick comments but fixating on the stuff that the gym rats care about like if their abs are defined and aligned won't win or impress anyone in my opinion, specially how much they can deadlift or bench.

It would appear that the impact section is not the place for high norwoods to vent or seek support, rather it has become (or perhaps always was) a place for low norwoods to share work out tips, brag about their female conquest inbetween complaining about their receeded temples. While the ones who suffer the most and need the most support are again misunderstood and villainized.

WTF man??

NOTHING about this thread was even for support..... HALF or more of the threads here are not for support. Im partially to blame as well as I have ranted. Venting is one thing but this thread was obviously set up as a cynical view of being bald and attractive.

Just like EVERY other thread in this board it detracts. I said earlier in the thread Ex made a thread asking about what people do to better themselves and keep their minds busy. It started great but BEFORE the first page ended it derailed into a blabbering mess like everything else, where everyone just says what they feel at some moment. I think there were TWO posts about hobbies, mine and another's, and then BAM that schit was over and everyone chimed in with their thoughts of whatever at whatever minute in time.

Also no offense here but no one is giving work out tips, I dont remember one person giving any fitness tips here. Thats YOUR assumption from prob only reading the last page or so. NO ONE was talking about female conquests and NO ONE mentioned receding temples and NO ONE was villianized.

Support is basically
you tried finasteride? No/yes? okay
you tried minoxidil? no/yes? okay
you use nizoral? no/yes? okay

can you get a hair transplant??????

After that what support outside personal growth and construct-ability is there???

Without doubt, it does seem to become like that sometimes. I will admit that it does get tiresome sometimes when comparison with one another occurs.

uncomfortable man, are still going for the hair transplant? It would truly be a life changing transformation for you, and will benefit from it tremendously with a well done job. As FredTheBelgian has stated before, just having a hairline will lift 90% of the hair loss burden off your shoulders.

Fair point but this post doesn't seem to be in that context. No one doubts baldness is significant and at times extremely difficult to come to terms with. It's like if your scarred or something there are things that can be done to enhance it which given a choice many people would.

i agree strongly lol. i miss the old days of me, you, dudemon, hairpieceman, captain forehead, s.a.f. and cuebald. this place was actually mostly BALD back then . . . although back then i was a diffuser lol.

lol i can't believe i thought s.a.f. was insufferable back then. he is nothing compared to wolf pack. at least s.a.f. was bald (albeit with a bad hair transplant). he also never subtle bragged about getting girls or being attractive or whatever.

This isn't a competition.

As Swing said, he didn't even read the thread, just presumed stuff. Also beyond the big 3/hair transplant/Wig, it's just talk.

If they emailed admin for a separate section I don't think it would happen.

^Bro, 5% bodyfat is a few weeks out from a bodybuilding competition. No basketball player sits at 5% bodyfat year-round (if ever). High single-digit bf, sure.

 

[xetudor]

Basketball players have awesome bodies but that's because it's their life and they are paid an insane amount of money. It's hard to mantain that body with a full time job, unless you have good genetics.

And as a common sense rule, never compare yourself to world class athletes. Never. It's just good for the mind to not get your hopes up too much.

 

[bilboswaggins]

Im a huge nba fan, this is the body I want.. Obv basketball players have like 5% body fat, i dont want to go that extreme. But that type lean look, or Kobes look. Not like lebron.

Lebron's physique is not even excessively muscled to the point where it looks ridiculous. He is big but more in the sense of a big frame and genetically broad shoulders. D

​Dwade looks as muscled if not more

First off, I dont have to read the whole thread to know that it is the same tired premise regurged by yet another aesthetic lover who fawns over chisled male model pictures. Just another full head who hangs their own self worth on factors beyond their control like bone size, shape and having perfect symmetry... asserting that all bald guys need to work out and problem solved, oh that and have facial bone structure of a male model that anyone can achieve with the right mindset huh?

1) Who said working out will solve all your problems????

2) I dont even think your read the first page! I think you saw pics posted, ran to the last page, saw one of my posts and then just went off on some ill conceived tangent on what you THOUGHT this thread was

3) THIS thread is the perfect one to talk about working out in, read the first few pages and you will see

4) You have many more problems that you should worry about such as a menial job at a late age (if thats you choice then great), strange dress choices (as you've stated about sporting a huge handlebar mustache and strange hats), a VERY bad never faltering attitude, SMOKING, refusing to change anything and expecting the world to grant YOU amnesty!?

I think you are one of those type A personalities who's entire being is "fighting the world". You know who else is like that.... ME at 18 years old! Then at around 23 I went on anti depressant and anxiety meds and was able to see what a fuqing LUNATIC I was. Also why when I go off on super rants here I specify "Ive been off my meds". I know when I need to start up again. You should really look into some lexapro my friend, it might make a world of difference. They say its a life long thing but its not. I taper on and off and each time i need it less and less, because I learn how to logically evaluate a situation. Since I started on anti depressants/anxiety meds my life sky rocketed and I really made needed changes.

You remind me of my idiot pops a bit, which is sad because if you keep up this attitude at home..... be very warned your poor kids will wind up like his..... oh yeah ME!

Good post mate. Also the "impact of hair loss" and desire to better yourself, go hand in hand. I don't see why it should solely be restricted to hair, particularly in a thread like this. Naturally, people who care about hair and how they are perceived by others, will also usually care about other aspects concerning them. It's not vanity either. If you guys think this is vanity, then so is treating your hair! Just shave it, be confident rings a bell.

Swing I also saw a post earlier in which you mentioned your body is conditioned to your size now. I think that's because of working out early, you will find even if you quit working out, it will take ages to decrease that mass. Also muscle memory exists as well. If you stopped working out, you would probably get back to a good size quicker.

I never said bald guys need to work out for a start. I said it helps. You say I am a full head, not quite, but I still worked out even before I had hair loss. The body should be treated whole from head to toe. Of course hair and face is like 90% but it's short sighted to limit yourself to that.

The benefits of working out both physically and mentally are there for all to see. It will help newbies in this thread as well as treating their hair. Most of them are happy with having some goals that they can achieve. It gives them some control, which hair loss may not. Now what's wrong with that?

Seriously, your mental health professionals sound mad! I feel they make a difference here. Sorry to hear about your gf's news or your experience in Psychiatry. They should have picked up that you had Bipolar earlier, that's a clinical error.

Also to add, maybe your gf's uncle was not admitted to hospital or treated by a Psychiatrist, because he had no mental illness? Just because he killed himself doesn't mean he was mentally ill. Both don't always exist together.

Don't forget, everyone wants to kill themselves in Psychiatry at some point, you have to know when it's more likely to happen, you can't always predict.

I have an image you singing in French on youtube with underwear on.
