My Story

[nameless]

If you're looking for much younger women, then, yes, most may reject you. They may reject you if you had hair too, since not all women are into older guys. Forties and up, you'd be surprised how many of them are starting to experience hair loss themselves. They might be thinking like you, "Nobody's flirting with me at all." I (and many other married women, I'm sure) still check out guys--slyly, I hope! A few I see on a regular basis are bald and just average looking. I enjoy the brief chats I have with them and would date them if I were single, not losing hair and so unhappy with my overall appearance. You never know what a woman is thinking. And with hair, these guys would still be just average. You say you were (and probably still are) really good looking with hair and picked up lots of women. At your age, I have a hard time believing that at least some women late 30s and up wouldn't be interested in you.

Joan, you're nice and I do understand that you're trying to help but I am beyond help. I want my big long rock-n-roll hair back and I'm going to get it back or I will never be happy again. At least not happy like I used to be. That's how I feel. There's nothing I can do about it. Those other guys with big long rock-n-roll hair understand how I feel. You can't relate because you're not a rock-n-roll dude who looks great with long hair and the women love you with your big long rock-n-roll hair. I can't be happy without it. If you were there when I had it you would understand.

Love as I know it, is a woman falling in love with me through my hair/attractiveness. You can't understand unless you were/are a big-hair long-hair rock-n-roll man. That's how I understand love.

I'm sure you were rejected a couple of times too, and if you were, it didn't stop you from approaching other women, right?

Yes but also with hair probably more so as I wouldn't do it smoothly or screw it up or was too drunk lol. As Ive got older I wait for clear signs of interest and wait for the right moment and treat women as humans rather than some game of trying to get them to bed.

Yes, a few of those times I got rejected I was too partied up (alcohol) and most of those few women who rejected me would have said yes if I hadn't been so partied up. In other words, even most of my few rejections were actually, "not tonight". Guys like me - nifty-looking big-hair long-hair rock-n-roll men are a different breed. We don't get together with women the same way as the short haired men do. It's totally different. Long hair makes people more attractive and since we become more attractive than the short-haired men, we are more acclimated to women aggressively pursuing us the same way short-haired men pursue women. This bald thing is simply not going to work for me. I can't make love happen as I understand love. Even if some woman was interested I would not be able to get myself into a relationship with her. It's hopeless. My best hope is for SM or Histogen to work for me.

I'm not good looking. I'm barely mediocre looking - if even that. I would get lost in a crowd for sure. And if SM or Histogen work then very few women in any age group would reject me, especially if I everything happens that I think will happen.

I can understand your wanting your hair back, but I lived through the big-hair 80s and do not miss that look on men at all (I had some pretty big hair myself). To each his own. I don't think long hair makes a guy more attractive than a short-haired guy--on the contrary (although long hair does make most women look prettier). Maybe EvilLocks can weigh in on this, since she's a lot younger. It seems like you're ok with women liking you for your hair above all else, and I apologize if I'm reading you wrong. Do you think a hair transplant would give you enough hair to wear it the length you desire?

Are you seeing any results with your regimen? In the picture you posted a while back, I thought you had good features and a good head shape for buzzed or bald.

When all is said and done women don't end up liking guys like me only for our hair but hair-attractiveness is the bridge that I can relate to, to get to the place we all want to be. Hair-attractiveness is the beginning of that journey. And hair-attractiveness is a big part of what guys like me are, not just to ourselves but also to our women, even when our big long hair stops being the front and center issue in the relationship. In other words for guys like me and the women who like us, big long hair is big part of what makes us what we are. No, a hair transplant will not get me enough permanent thickness or length.

What most men with long hair think they look like

What most men with long hair actually look like.

objectively speaking, you need a very masculine, and handsome face to pull off long hair without looking like a neckbeard dweeb. But then again, it wouldn't matter if they had short or long hair, it's all part of the halo effect on their attractiveness.

The second guy is not anything how I look like with long hair.

With long hair I don't look like either of those men but I do look more like the first man.

I can't even produce bangs anymore. I haven't produced bangs in a decade.

And David Roth doesn't look quite that good with hair in real life. Sometimes pictures create fair images, sometimes the images are unkind and sometimes they're too favorable. In this case the picture is very favorable to him. If you look at 10 different pictures of the same man/woman the person will look somewhat different in all of the pictures. Sometimes they don't even look like the same person.

 

[shookwun]

I understand that.

What I'm trying to say is their is a universal type of face that's considered attractive to almost any women regardless of hair style.

Here's another comparison to the singer in Van halen. Notice how both attractive men have the same structure, and pull it off very well..

Lol! I never found him attractive. Guys with big hair who I thought were gorgeous: Paul Stanley and Jimmy Page.

Yea you're right to a degree but then there are individual situations. In my case, I look very good with a full head of hair, and I look mediocre at best missing some hair. That's just the way my face is.

David Roth's looks are damaged by his crummy personality, he's egotistical, dumb, aloof, and kind of mean. I'm none of those things. I'm intelligent and nice. I'm lucky when I have my hair because when I have my hair I get to be popular even though I'm nice.

I'm concerned about the limp state of the 2 potted house lilies in the right corner behind the 3 stooges. Someone better feed them soon they're starting to resemble Larry and I.

Both plants are green. They look quite alive. I relate to them because they're very much alive but they're disfigured like me.
Tomorrow's payday - maybe I should buy a gun and shoot myself.

By the way I edit my posts a lot because I'm doing 50 billion things at once. I work with computers and I'm rolling around in a chair moving between different computers. I type a lot of stuff at HairLossTalk.com while moving about and going from computer to computer so I'm not focused well when I type/post at HairLossTalk.com. Hence, I have to go back and alter what I posted a lot because I'll post a bunch of stuff while focused on other things and then after I post I'll see that I've been redundant or posted way more info than necessary to make my point, owing to my lack of focus. Please bear with me and my edits.

Just like the plants you too still have a lot of life left in you.
Now you gave some sound advice recently to Evil that I believe was a better choice now than the ****ing one you're messing with here.
You hate hypocrisy right?
It can't be all or nothing anymore. Even when nothing looks close to a promise on the skyline.
Even if my hair is gone I would not want to leave behind a legacy that told my friends and family that my hair was worth more than the rest of my life.

I'm sticking around. I think Histogen is already hopeful and SM04554 may prove to be a breakthrough. I have to be
here to get access to them. And I don't ever have to be bald because a hair transplant will at least protect me from that.
Even if I don't get my hair back and women abandon me forever I can still travel and stuff like that so life
won't be totally without some pleasures. If I don't get my hair back my artwork will never surface and
that's a little unfortunate. Anyway, I have to run.

I agree with that to an extent but also note that the unattractive man is the one without hair. He looks like
he's all-head because he has very little hair left on the top or sides of his head. The lack of hair makes his
head look awkward. The right amount of hair on a person's head creates proper proportion for the head.

Alright then stick around Picasso and paint your masterpeace.


BTW Pablo did not permit his disdain for his own awful baldness conquer or destroy his most beloved quality.

Good to see David Lee make an appearance in the thread.

Gotta love some of that old VH stuff...

@ Shookwon. Considering your advice, I'd appreciate it if you checked my profile pictures and tell me whether I'm in shave it territory... I don't think I am, I think it still works for me, but I may be deluded as you state many balding men with longer hair are...

 

[nameless]

Have you actively tried dating women or are you making the assumption all women will reject you? It's true some women will no longer find you as attractive, but I had no problem getting women when I was single had good results on tinder etc and I have less hair than you (if you are only a NW3).

The last chick I was living with was quite awhile ago and she basically told me that since she was attractive and my looks were damaged I better to whatever she said. A friend of her's in Nebraska called and asked her to go to Nebraska for a visit so I got her a plane ticket and sent her to Nebraska. After a few weeks she tried to get me to send her a ticket back to my place but I refused. I don't take kindly to being blackmailed. She called crying for a couple of months trying to sweet-talk me to take her back but forget that. I told her she couldn't come back. Finally she abruptly stopped calling so I think she has settled into her new life in Nebraska. Nebraska is a pretty boring place so I think I got the last laugh in this domestic disaster. Like the little kid in the "Twillight Zone" movie I sent her to the Cornfield. I'm thinking about writing a song about her boring new life in Nebraska and I have a working title for the song. Since Nebraska has a bunch of corn and not much else I'm going to call the song "Life Among the Cornfields".

You say that long hair makes women "prettier". OK can we substitute the word "attractive" for the word you used - "pretty"? I hope we're agreeable that it's fair to say that even according to you long hair makes women more attractive. Well, the same things happen with a lot of men. A lot of men wear their hair short, and some men do look better with short hair, but some of those guys wearing their hair short would look better with longer hair. But they choose to have short hair. OK, that's their right. But anyway, the same as you acknowledge that long hair makes women look better it does the same thing for some men.

Are there any famous men at all that you can remember with long hair that would make you think that it would be sad if he lost his hair? Any men at all? Even one?

 

[GoldenMane]

Unless you have a great face and head shape, the shaved/bald look isn't for you. Most people look better with medium-long hair. Too well defined features and you'll look very harsh/severe/scary with short/no hair. Too round features and you'll look like a potato.
