I Went From 25%-50% To 1%-2% Hit Rate On Tinder.

My old pictures: NW1, thick and big hair. I'd get matches ever second or third swipe...before I reset my Tinder, I had around 500 matches (in a small-ish town)

My updates pictures: NW3A, almost NW4. Visibly short and receding temples. I use toppik to hide any scalp.
I can seriously swipe for days without any hits. I'm not kidding, maybe I get a hit every 50th swipe or so, sometimes less. Yesterday, while laying in bed, I was swiping right on probably 70% of the profiles...not a two matches before I ran out of swipes.

Such is life with terminal Norwood.

I really fail to see the point in these anecdotes sometimes.

We all know that balding makes you uglier and less desirable. Much like a facial disfigurement or being fat does.

"I'm getting less swipes on tinder since I got 70% burns, why?"

" When i was 20 years younger and weighed 3 stone less I would get more attention from girls, wtf?"

No f*****g sh*t. Sometimes I compare this forum to the fat positivity idiots. State the obvious and get 100 likes.

Jesus. Even with no visible hair loss I have historically had a less than 1/100 match rate on Tinder.

What kind of SuperChad were you? Do you look like a movie star?

Another Chad bites the dust...

This illuminates a general truth that no man wants to admit.

Yes, but we need to reassure ourselves constantly lest we get too blue-pilled.

He is just venting I think, has only just realised his fate in life being a NW3+.

Pray for new treatments @tracker54 , it's the only thing that can save us

Time for a hair transplant.

Problem solved.

I had around 25% and you've seen my picture and I'm not even a top tier guy.
You have seen my pic and I have Tinder Gold. I get a few likes per month and no single match, even if I were to lower my standards. (Far) better-looking guys (6-7) than me who have Tinder Gold have several dozen likes more, but very rarely girls 6s and above, so if you swipe somewhat conservatively, you'll be nowhere near 25%.

If you had hair you would get 10 matches a day

Your face and build are fine - its just the hair :(

I truly wish it were that simple. I am fully aware the lack of hair prevents me from getting a smiliar amount as the guys I mentioned - but we are talking likes here, not matches. I'm a person who cannot stress the importance of looks enough. It's virtually everything. But I'd still find enough deficiencies that'd leave me wanting with girls I desire. Having said that, I mentioned an example lately where things were going well with a 7-8 (in my view) until she saw a pic without cover for the head. ;) Thing still is: a hair transplant could not get me where I'd really like to be hair-wise. and: I'd do it for others, not for myself, as I do not think I looked significantly better with hair. I was still more or less average, i.e. I already needed luck for a pretty girl to like me.
