I hate myself today.

[Hope4hairRedux]

f*** I hate myself today. I hate being the ugly sh*t I am. I hate looking at my bulbous head and my pig like balding features. I just dont have the motivation anymore. I can now understand why bald(ing) men eventually let
themselves go.

No matter how hard I try, I will never look as good as I did. Im not ugly, no. But my I have lost enough hair now that my once good looks have gone down the bin.

I walk down busy streets and I wander if these people go throug the suffering I go through - whether we are all more or less the same. That we all have dark and depressing lives. I look at good looking people and think that by and large they have a better ride than others do. They can enjoy life more than ugly people. They get treated better, they have more attractive partners, and have generally more oppurtunities in life.

I have always been a believer in the philosophy of 'you have to look good to feel good'. Call me superficial or whatever but we all know its more or less true. The people that have a happy vibration about them or more often
than not good looking. Im not saying the most good looking are the most happy - but generally, the nw1s are more
happy than nw6s.

Over the last yr my self confidence has begun to dwindle. I used to do ok with women. I wish I was black or oriental,they look so much better bald. But im a white egg sh*t.

I seroiusly dont think any women could find me attractive. The cruelty of it is I will always be attracted
to the top women. So I will become a bald sh*t and that will be it. game over.

No matter how hard I try I cant seem to have a good style. I cant ever look good in clothes. Now my hair is going,
I dont even know who I am anymore. And you want to know the truth? I f*****g hate bald white men. I hate looking
at my sh*t future. Enjoy life as a bald man, I know I will ! yeah right. I wasnt born ugly, Im not overwieght.

Through no fault of my own I am becommin an unattractive bald guy. this sucks. What sucks is that you dont see itcoming until it hits you. Its like being raped and run over by a car. Every day. Everyday is a f*****g reality
check when I wake up and look at myself. Is this really my reality? I just cant beleive it. f*** this.

I saw the most bueatiful girl today..stunning..mixed race, amazing long hair, glasses..just refined..regal..a real stunner. and i realised that im never going to be able to get that kind of pussy again.

A few points:

1) How bald are you? Post a picture up of only your hairline if you have too. We can be our own harshest critics.

2) You know what you are right, you will have a harder time getting a hot girl to turn her head around. The odds are stacked against you. But why should that stop you from making an effort? HOW do you know that the girl doesn't even like baldies.

I mean think of this rationally and logically, f*** if it is how bad as you say it is just take the plunge and get rejected a billion times, what the f*** have you got to lose at this point? I can understand if you were just starting to lose your hair, but right now you have nothing to lose if indeed your male pattern baldness is aggressive. At least this way you are approaching, and after a sh*t load of approaches, a hot girl will want to sleep with you if you are indeed ugly as sin. I have met some real babes with very average/ugly bald guys. One I am chasing now as a matter of fact, and you know what I can't get her, she loves the bald man too much.

3) If you are ugly as you say you are, you have to learn to embrace your imperfections, your hair wont grow back. This is the harsh reality, adapt. I know this is easier than said, which is why you should seek some sort of therapy or counselling to help you overcome this.

4) If your hair is going, have you thought about working on your body and increasing attraction that way? Bald + muscily = girls dig.

You are full of limiting beliefs, you have to learn to take responsiblity of it and that the problem is not with other people but with you. YOU choose to not approach women because of your hairloss, you choose to make a big deal about it. When it could be so much different. Yes, there will be some girls that will find this to be a dealbreaker and you have to accept that. On the same note there are many that like bald guys, I have seen so many girls hooking up with guys with receeding hairlines, or with guys that are completely bald. The problem is your attitude, life is hard for the average joe hair or not, but you know what you have got to keep on fighting.

Until you learn to accept/embrace these changes you are undergoing, only then will you be fit enough to get a hot girl. At this present moment in time you are in no mindset to get with a girl of your choice, irrespective on if you had hair or not.

Tough love, but my 2 cents.

I dont thinki im 'ugly'.

Ive just lost hope. Im sick of hearing all this 'aproach thousands of girls and eventually 1 will like you' crap. We dont work like that. Our minds arent wired that way. If you are good at a sport, then you are motivated to play it. But if you were sh*t and you knew you had no competative game then you would probably give up.

My point is the insanity of everything. The way we live like animals, wanting to be bueatiful and desirable the whole time. At the end of the day im not going to post a pic up. I know im an NW2, but its not the standard norwood. it goes far back on the sides in a wide way.

I used to be good looking. anyone can say this on a internet forum. but i just knew i was. i used to get complimented on my looks, i used to get girls looking at me. now though, i know its not like that anymore. im not even asking to be 'good looking' anymore. I just feel like a monster with my hair.

Im not looking for some pep talk here, im writing this because others here know what im going through.

Well mate I am not far off from a NW2. Though please post a picture up so I can see what your NW2 looks like?...if not one already.

If you are a NW2, at least you have hair on your head, why dont you go to the hairdressers and ask them to do something with your hair. As I said you gotta adapt, just be grateful that you are not in a position where you have no hair to style.

And you know what, I first got laid with a NW2,3 whatever you want to call it then when I had a NW0.

Here are other NW2 examples with V shaped hairlines that have great haircuts:

Keanu Reeves:

Michael Owen:

And they dont look bad. If anything if style right it can make you look edgy. You just need to find the right style.

Also having a mature hairline does not neccessary mean that you will go bald.

[Thinneritgoes!]

They don't look bad!? YEAH THEY HAVE A FULL HEAD OF HAIR.



Wait until you guys dont have anything to style up front. Where there are just a few strands coming out. I wouldn't even call those mature hairlines. They are full heads of hair.

If you are a NW2, please do waht you need to preserve and get the F#$^$ out of here (for your own sake, im not being a d###). Because as cliche as it is around here. You will look back at that hair you have now and want to beat yourself up for not enjoying it. Trust me.

 

[qball01]

hate to say it Hope for Hair...but if you were good looking before, a Norwood 2 isn't enough of a difference to physically destroy your looks...you should post a picture for objective perspectives. You sound like somebody with Body Dysmorphic Disorder...and what sucks about this disease is that NO MATTER WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE...you will convince yourself you are hideous and unattractive and not deserving of any girls. Then when you do get rejected because you're mopy, depressed and nervous (not because you're ugly) you'll think its because of how you look and then feel even worse.

This isn't even one of those "you can still look good bald" arguments because a Norwood 2 is hardly bald...I bet people hardly notice besides you.

Well, my hairline is the one in the first picture. Just using Revita atm, and monitoring my hairline. And if my hairline was diagnosed as a Norwood 1-2 (the same a Ewan Mcgregors, then I have no doubt that the original posters hair is not as bad as he makes it sounds like.) He is probably just crying over a little bit of recession.

 

[qball01]

I know this has nothing to do with baldness, but I found this site while looking up stuff about Body Dysmorphic Disorder

This girl wanted to look like Trish Stratus (WWF Diva). She felt like she was hideous and had many of the same insecurity problems as some of the people on here do....feeling like she was lesser than others because she was so ugly. Clearly, she is far from ugly. Point is....the "its mostly in your mind" arguments do have a lot of validity...I'm not denying that MBP can definitely have some effect...its definitely had an impact on me...(and unlike a lot of guys on this site, at 21 years old I don't just have some minor receeding with a full head of hair) but to sit here and blame being bald for not being able to find an attractive girl, a good job or live a normal life is kinda ridiculous IMO.

First of, f*** the norwood scale. my baldness IS obvoius. Thats the bottom line. And it HAS taken away my attractiveness. I still have a nice face. But It just looks so crappy now. Crappy hairline. Which now makes my forehead look all bulbous.

You may be slick bald but you dont have the right to tell another male pattern baldness sufferrer that they shouldnt be here as their hair loss isnt as bad. Bullshit. Although it may be different physically, mentally its all the same. You either move on and accept, or you dont. Right now, I dont. Its not easy sometimes to just 'accept and move on', but im trying, and god forbit Im getting there.

Today Im just having a sh*t hair day. And today im feeling down about it. That is all.

Im not saying my male pattern baldness has made my hideous - its just that Ive gone from about an 8/10 looks wise to a 5-6/10. And it f*****g sucks.

If it bothers you that much why don't you wear a conceeler?

 

[barcafan]

yeah i gotta say, you fuckers all have great hair.

 

[cuebald]

ROFL, is this thread a fucking joke?
when I was NW2 I didn't even notice I was losing hair apart from seeing more shedded, and I didn't care at all how it affected my looks as it's so DAMNED NEGLIGABLE.

you're NUTS if you think going to NW2 will suddenly make you hugely ugly.
Come back when your hairline starts behind your ears.

 

[uncomfortable man]

I think it's what is to come that has you so upset. Right, so you think you have it bad now. If I were you I would do everything in my power to keep my hair and wake up everyday and breathe a big sigh of relief that you don't look like me.

 

[cruz]

I think it's what is to come that has you so upset.

I agree with this. A lot of people on here underestimate what the fear of going bald can do to you. You cannot just switch that fear off just because you may have a number of years left before you are slick bald.

Remember, not everyone will be able to keep what they have left by using hairloss treatments. When you are continually losing hair each day, you know that you will reach NW7 eventually. It may be in a few years or it maybe 10 years, but you know it's gonna happen. If you're not in a strong place mentally, it's this fear that can destroy you.

Having said this, I agree that, generally, NW2 should not have such a negligible effect on your appearance (most people have still not noticed my hairloss even though i'm probably past NW2 myself).

 

[Hope4hairRedux]

Yes, part of my depression is knowing full well that I have a bald future ahead of me. Its looking at all the bald men everywhere that dont look attractive or confident. Its knowing that I could turn into that. It scares me.

Im not a typical NW2. it has receeded a lot on the sides. I argue that even minor hair loss can completely take away the frame of your face. I have such a wide forehead now. its taken away that sharp look that creates that contrast. I feel that i already look a lot blander.

What im saying is that although its better to have less loss than more - its still a disfigurement. It still makes me uglier. I dont feel attractive like i used to be. very few people have noticed but i have recieved less n less positive comments on my looks but whatever. Ok I do feel happy that I have some hair, but to me, its already spoilt. My looks have already been spoilt. I live in a busy city - london - where looks are everything. There are millions of perfect nw1s. How can I ever compete? How will I be able to get bueatuful women??

How many people on this site really have bueatiful gfs?
