Inspired by darkhearts mindset poll

Thing is it's not about choosing at all. If you knew when you'd bald obviously you'd go with 91. Suppose you are norwood EIGHT at 18. Instead of cucking yourself with finasteride so young, tell me this wouldn't it be better to looksmax what you can, use your energetic youth to go out and make a life without ever worrying about hair in your adulthood? What was that guy's name Brian Laundry, why'd he get a cute blonde gf when he was NW6 at 12 years old

If your bald at 18 then for all intents and purposes you aren't young

 

[Milkonos]

And knowing the effects of finasteride I would never want to get on that at an age like 17 or something, that would be terrible

Guys, I just got finasteride prescribed by my shrink. Please stop trying to scare me, lol

Obviously I'd pick bald at 31. What kind of question is this? Miss out on your youth or not miss out on your youth...

Let's make this more interesting.

How about A is a Norwood 5a pattern at 21 and it stabilizes forever. I.e. good donor supply and with a good hair transplant you can get the illusion of full density with 2-3 surgeries. However you have to spend the money yourself and will likely have to go through college and a lot of your young adult life bald / balding before you can afford it.

Or

Scenario B is you have full head of hair up to 28 and lose it but it's a Norwood 6-7 pattern and you can't get full coverage.

This is a better question.

He wasn't nw6 at 12. He met her when he had all his hair.

A

It is worse to go bald the younger you are, however it is worse having to spend your 30s, 40s, 50s, etc. bald instead of only your 20s or at least most of your 20s bald.

It is a dumb question lol. I only made it cuz For some reason darkheart thinks losing at 31 is worse than losing at 21 lol

If people knew when they'd bald of course everyone would pick the latter age. All these polls assume you magically know when you'd bald. It is better to bald later I guess, but the pain is different. You're a bald teenager you cry about what could have been, you bald at 28 you cry about the image you've created, now lost. It's only after high school that you start making a name for yourself, your actual life. You go bald into it or you don't


Damn so she really was going to leave him due to his hairline

Most people make a name for themselves in high school lol, there is no purer form of living than high school. Just fun and hanging out and relationships based on personality and looks and not degenerate gold digger bs

 

[Isaac Newton]

High school is literally just goofing off for most people, they don't make a name for themselves in the world at all, zero, nada, until they get to university or start developing their career

You dont have a reputation and popularity games in high school? Thats when you really become yourself

 

[Isaac Newton]

Nah bro that sounds like one of 'em has-been high school Chads that ends up getting cucked as a janitor and occasionally whispers to himself "ye, them times were good". It may shape your personality but that's a closed ecosystem your professors or employers/coworkers won't care one bit. Your life starts with those people, everyone just kind of scatters after high school, I know I did

I always hear the has been jock thing but in my experience chad succeeds after high school too

 

[Oknow]

I want everyone to know that I voted for B. High school years mean f*** all, your life only really begins after 18, before that it's like a tutorial

agree with this
My life only really begun after 30

 

[Jeju]

this poll blows my mind. Obviously later. No ifs, no buts.

 

[BurningCoals]

I'm 121 years old and going bald at 31 is soo much better than at 121. At my age hair is a very central part of my identity, whereas on 31 you are basically a kid and have just had hair for 31 years and haven't experienced having it to any significant degree. Hell, being Norwood 2 at 121 is arguably worse than being Norwood 7 with DUPA at 31, I miss my missing 2 cm of hairline it has completely shattered my appearance and identity.

 

[Wolf Pack]

Man, so basically you can't even understand my point at all. You're right that university is mainly for social connections, but it isn't all slags. You meet girls with similar interests, you study into the night with them. You lay under the stars with them, you f*** them, you find your soul mate. High school romance? That sh*t doesn't last a year after HS

And again I'm not particularly emphasizing that your suffering is less. Just that one who loses it around 26-27 has more memories to lose, even so I'm glad they exist in the first place

And you just proved @Isaac Newton 's point. Serious hair loss earlier is way worse because you miss out on your youth and no amount of hair after or time makes up for it, the mindset and experience is just different at 18-23 period. There are none of those memories that we have. Like what you described in the first post, that type of feel good vibes and innocence is only applicable <23, you grow up after and so do the people around you, environment totally changes. Not to say hair loss isn't painful at 26, it is because you can see how life could change looks wise and you're still in your prime yet will fade fast. I know because I had my fun and romance at uni and at 26 it was all about to change, until I solved it (luckily not too aggressive).

Adolescent hardcore balding is one of the saddest events - I can see how that would stump development in many ways and nothing compares if we look at hair loss objectively.
