the top-tier of humanity are tite teens

what? How can teenagers be the top tier of humanity? Most are sniveling, useless little brats that care about nothing of importance. The top tier of humanity is a tight, well educated and successful 25-30 year old woman who like spends her free time volunteering at a soup kitchen.

I'm still a gregarious and charming guy, the picture face is just the state of mind I was in. That profile pic face is me saying "FU** you life, I won you son of a b**ch!" However, in real life, I have the same personality. People do take me seriously now.

One of the biggest differences I noticed is how people react to me. Used to, kids would see me in public and say "You're balding!" or "Why are you losing your hair?" (As a PE coach or working with Boys club)... or women would look at me and get that look of sympathy, like "Ah, he's cute. Too bad he's balding." or whatever.

Now, kids just assume I shave my head. They never say anything about it. I'd rather be called the bald guy with a beard than the 'balding' man. And women look at me and have that flirtatious look in their eyes, no 'sympathetic' or 'creepy' look. That's all I needed, acceptance.

I am actually starting to like your posts.

I understand they will NOT apply to everyone, actually only a few people, but they are still applicable.

I have started a serious fitness regimen and I consider myself in a similar situation, but only 5'9".

I have extreme diffused thinning all over the top and sides. I have a muscular build, covered in some fat but just three years ago i was pretty ripped. Dark features, big eyes, nice beard, etc... and at one point women found me very attractive.

Once I am ripped, I WILL feel more comfortable getting rid of my hair. I know people say this is just a cope, and well it is, but people are allowed to cope sometimes. We cannot fully accept all our flaws.

For people like me, these posts do help a bit. I need to emphasize what I have, take care of it and improve what I can control, because there is NO DOUBT I will have to shave my head soon. f***, I am already past the point where everyone would agree it needs to be done. I just wear toppix and a hat all the time.

why do they even bother classifying NW5 and higher? it could just be up to NW4, anything past that can just be classified as “fucked”

worthy for hair transplant

I appreciate your positive feedback. I'm telling you the truth when I say I was not anywhere in the ballpark of this confident even 2-3 years ago. I was sitting in that hotel room, crying like a baby, looking at my 275 lb naked body and balding head thinking "How am I 28 years old?" When I say I was suicidal, I really mean it. I just laid there on the bed, in my boxers for a long time. I keep using the word void or despondent because that's the only adjective I can think of to describe my state of mind. I can't even tell you how long I just laid there, staring at the ceiling in the dark, looking at shadows, thinking about giving up on life.

When you're free, you feel like chains have been lifted. You wake up from your funk and realize you don't have to be a prisoner to your hair anymore. It's gone. Like I said, you don't have to be 6'4'' to get this confidence. My cousin is 5'4''. He is balding (genetics) and he's 27. He had a hot fiance. They were going to be married last year but she died in a freak 4 wheeler accident. He's a ripped dude, and has tons of swagger/confidence. He dresses in nice clothes and carries himself well. My point is, he got this amazingly hot girl. It's possible. I can be done.

Even 25's pushing it.

Physically, of course a 22 year old is at her peak, but all things considered, just someone who doesn't drive me crazy with their bullshit. Who's also not a walrus haha.

The OP obviously means well and you can tell that his heart is with it , probably trying to offer genuine advice.

The problem is it just doesn't work for everyone. I envy guys that use hairloss as a reason to get in shape - honestly that's great for them.

Thing is I already do workout , and I already do try to looksmax however I am held back because of my genes. I never once denied hairloss - at age 16 as soon as I noticed a tiny bit of thinning I didn't even try to pretend otherwise. Some guys can delude themselves but I couldn't.

He's a world wide famous, hollywood celebrity and a multimillionaire.

Still plenty of counter examples of famous hollywood multimillionaire celebrities who don't get that amount of pussies and struggle to get laid, there's something you got wrong about what can bring a journalist litteraly wets her panties during an interview and end in a hotel room, and that's surely not money.
Yes it will help, but not as you think it will.

I actually once argued with a guy about his height when I was in undergrad because he was trying to convince me it was just as bad trying to shop as a big guy as it must be for me as a small guy.

I was just like "wut". I realize now that conversation was 15 years ago and I still remember it because it was surreal.

Some people just have no idea in life.
Reminds me of my friend who is depressed because his NW0 hair "doesn't look that good".

I'm the kind of guy that even if finasteride was killing my dick, I MIGHT stay on it to save my hair. Hopefully I will never have to make that choice

I already live with a moderate amount of loneliness. My guess is with baldness, I could pretty much forget about being invited out to socialize almost entirely. I have kind of a weird immature humor that endears me to people, but it really only works because I look like a decade younger than my age. As a 5'6" bald pasty white dude I doubt I could get away with this personality. I would basically have to shift all my focus onto things not involving interaction with people in order to maintain sanity

Most overlooked part of baldness is the way it can limit your personality due to how others perceive you. Truly the kiss of death if you're running immature humor game.

It simply would not work. Would go from being funny to being creepy. For better or worse this is the only way I've ever acted that seems to make people really like me

Dude are you my clone? lol seriously I can relate to so much of that post that it's actually very weird. The height , the humor , the staying on hair meds even if it was killing my dick.

100% true that baldness limit personality in terms of impressing people around.
This is the problem of baldness.
In love,we have to expect the girl you like don't care for your baldness.This decreases the chances.
Its not that bald men do not get girlfriend or wife,but chances of getting heart break increases too much.

To find a girl who don't care for your hairloss takes extra ordinary efforts for many.Guys can lose confidence in between this.

Yesterday,one relative of mine who is software engineer,27 got "yes" from girl.He is norwood 4.

I like the optimism that the OP brings.
What I am going to add does not negate it:
1. When you are 6'4", people look at your body much more often than they look at the top of your head. It is physically difficult to look at the top of your head; this is maybe why the shaving worked for you;
2. Not everyone can get ripped. Not everyone has the time to go to the gym often (some of us have works with long hours). And, mainly, some of us just get some muscles and then the body does not cooperate to put on some more. Unless we take steroids...

Happy the Vin worked for you and happy you wanted to share it, but your solution is not the solution for everyone.
