No hair = no dates (online)?

[ali777]

I've seen some ads where the woman specifically says, "please DO NOT reply if you are bald."

Or, "bald guys need not apply"

Or something along those lines. So, that is evidence that some women are not interested in bald guys, no matter what. No matter about anything else, they aren't interested in balds just becaus eof the baldness. Although those women are a small minority who are "that" open about it.

But, how many more of them feel the same way, but just won't openly admit it?

I know that is true but is that a bad thing? Would youa ctively search for a bald woman? Or one that is hideous?

I've seen a few of those as well. We take out a few of the women and our target range goes down to 80%, so what??? Worst case scenario, 50%. It's still not the end of the world. I'd rather be healthy and bald than overweight. Yes, I do have certain standards as well...

I wrote in IWP's thread yesterday that I'm talking to a nice girl who is sort of looking to settle down and she's looking for a like minded person. Obviously she didn't put it that way, but those words were implied. Last weekend, we were talking about aging, etc. I mentioned that I don't like the fact that my hair is thinning. She didn't say anything, but my impression is that she sees it as a sign of maturity, and she isn't bothered at all. I believe she sees me as a potential partner who is mature enough to settle down. (the only problem is I still need to sort out a few things to be ready for a relationship. My future isn't clear yet.)

Another female friend was telling me her bf is very stressed about his hairloss, but she loves him just the same.

I'm not gonna argue that I'm enjoying hairloss, but it's not a disaster. It becomes a disaster if you let it affect you.

Grow a thick skin, get a decent job and get on with your lives. Don't let your life revolve around your hair.....

SAF were you a full on NW6 (I mean where there was absolutely NO hair on top and crown). Because some norwood levels still have hair there although very thin. Because I find it nearly impossible to see how one can go from a full NE6 to a NW6 even with every translplant possible and every body hair I had. I had a ton of hair transplant docs tell me that it's beyond "repairable".

Yeah, I used too look like that pic of Andy Hunt, :shock: crown and front 3rd shiney smooth skin. I had a little of the peach fuzz type vellous hairs in the centre of the vertex but they were like invisible to the naked eye and did'nt grow more than a few mm. Even when I buzzed my head with no guard on, (grade 0) you could still see the horseshoe effect.
Dont get me wrong I dont have a thick dense NW2 like your average non m.p.b sufferer and I use Fibres to create an illusion of somewhat normal thickness.

It is true that in many peoples cases a nw6 is beyond hope, but thats if you wont accept anything less than a full head of hair. But if your willing to settle for thin hair rather than totally bald then there is an option.

Count yourself lucky that the hair transplant dr's you went to were ethical enough to be honest with you.
Here in the UK they just promised me that it would be an easy fix and I fell for it.

There you go hp. A major hair transplant journey(3) and the results of it. Dont tell me hes not bald enough lol. I guess you could get your hair back but it would cost you. I think this guys clinic was cheap though who knows what the Doctor would be like. His results do look good though.

I would bet that there's some concealer being used in this pic, and BTW this clinic is awful, Hunts outcome was by far the best that they've ever produced. Most of their patients get very poor growth.

But if you want to see some good examples of a bald guy totally restored look for Hassan and Wong's Jotronic, Londonlad or the best example I've ever seen NicNitro who posts on HLH. These guys all had megasessions with H&W.

Just the same ammount as guys who wont talk to small titted chicks.

He has CONSIDERABLE more hair on top than I do. That buzz shade on the top? I don't even have that bro. I would be happy almost having what he has in the BEFORE. It would be an improvement.

SAF,

They were honest when they found out I don't have that type of money they would charge. Not even close. Ethics wasn't even involved.

I put up a pic of that Hunt guy. He is NOT a NW6 by my standars. I can see hair when it's buzzed. For me, I'm not that far off from a NW7 I think. There is not even one dot of hair up there lol.

 

[barcafan]

I havent seen the bald guys need not apply ads either. So who's right in this case? Do you get the point?

I havn't seen ads from guys looking for girls that specifiaclly say, "Small breasted girls/women need not apply." Or, "Must have large breasts."

At least not in the ads I've seen. I'm not saying they don't exist. But, I certainly see a lot more of the "No bald guys please" in the ads that women post.

Because if a guy did that, he'd get no replies even from the girls with big tits.

They'd think he was a f*****g wierdo/freak/sex addict.

 

[s.a.f]

I've never seen any girl state "No bald guys" but many of them list 'good hair' as a turn on.

These are from craigslist.

"Are you between the ages of 27 and 37? I am looking for a man who fits the titled criteria for a relationship if there is chemistry between us. Please be physically fit, and intelligent. I am fun, intelligent, cultured, slender, very attractive, and tall. If you send me a picture, I will reply with one of me. Please don't respond if you are bald or overweight. This is just a personal preference. I am seeking my equal in looks as well as in intelligence."

"Be roughly around my age 26-35 I guess. Have a any job and any vehicle, as long as you got em. =) Physical... Umm, how do you say this stuff w/o offending anyone? I like guys that have hair, sorry guys i'm just not attracted to bald/shaved heads."

"things i dislike: large dogs walks on the beach fishing swimming sporting events laziness blonde haired men beards bald or overweight men, don't take showers drugs drink too much or smoking...
ps i do not drive..... "

"Attracted to tall, in shape, good looking, nice smile/teeth essential, no facial hair, no bald/shaved heads please and a great smile is a MUST. No old men please. "

"I prefer people who are not bald, bearded, overweight or obese. If you match any of those descriptions, please don't bother to contact me, since I really don't want to hurt anyone's feelings."

"a) over the age of 30 b) not obese and c) not bald here"

"NO arrogant types, tattoos, beard, piercings, badly-dressed, bald, interested mainly in sports and finance, and stingy"

"but instead i'll be straight forward and tell you right away that i'm not interested in you if you're bald or over 30"

"No tattoos, beards, piercings, and bald heads. "

"not too old, not too overweight, not too bald,"

"Not into bald men with goatee's, tatoo's, baseball caps. "

"Like many other attractive women I get bombarded with men asking me out who are married, engaged, fat, bald, older than my father, have no teeth etc."

"You Taller than me, some hair (don't like bald men)"

Now, that said, I went looking for those, and found almost as many that said they didn't care about baldness, and a few that found shaved heads attractive. But the preference for men with hair does exist, just like the preference for skinny girls exists. I think if you're bald and confident you should be fine. In the end I think Barcafan is right. Sure it does exist, but its far from the majority. Remember, women are also insecure.
A little story:
Before I discovered I was balding, there were two girls that I particularly wanted to sleep with. I failed with both, with a full head of hair. They both slept with bald guys. One with a shaved head, one an NW4 or so. Both the girls are really hot, and could have their pick of men.

But it is not the bald guys rejecting the small women. It is the guys with perfect bodies. The baldies would gladdly date these women, but these women reject the bald guys.

edit: oh, you were pointing out that most guys don't reject these women, so most women do not think baldness is a deal breaker.

I swear man. Get a HP from finalhair for $140 or so, get french lace and PSB perimeter. It will probably last 4 months. With a smooth top you can attach easy. Not say it is your solution, just something so you can have some fun without a hat while you think of another solution. I bet it would come out to maybe $40 per month tops. That is what I will do until I save up enough money for all the body hair transplants I need to do. Cheap, easy to clean, solid attachment, comfortable, strong.

I havent seen the bald guys need not apply ads either. So who's right in this case? Do you get the point?

I haven't seen them either. I have not even seen "no toupe's". I did see one saying she only dates doctors, but that is it. Most ads I think are fake. The woman usually says a one liner that is vague, revealing very little about herself. That is why I don't bother going online to date anymore.

And when I have dated women, they all deny 110% that appearance matters. They always find another excuse to turn you down or break up with you once they discover your penis is too small, or that you are wearing a hat for a reason. They never dump you that second. You'll just notice that from that hour onward, the energy is just not there anymore, and then they find an excuse to end it a week later. So I'm skeptical when guys say they saw an ad that says no baldies please. For all you know, a NW1 guy posted that to scare away his baldy competiton.

Proof enough? Like Dudemon said, I also believe that even though many would say these women are in a minority, they are the outspoken ones, so who knows how many more feel the same way but who are just too polite to mention it. I think the amount of women who truly dislike bald men are HALF, at least. I even heard a statistic that read 20% of women prefer bald guys. IMO, this figure sounds parallel to reality.

 

[CCS]

Oh, I believe most women find baldness a flaw. But I also believe most of those women posting can't be as picky as they say. They are on there because they can't get guys in person. Yes, they don't like bald men, but I bet some would settle, just like you'd settle for them and their flaws.

I stick to what I've said all along: if you compensate in other ways, baldness is not a deal breaker. Height, penis size, muscle, good face, money, all compensate.

Notice that some women's faces are prettier than other's? Think the less pretty ones are victims, like bald guys?

Less pretty, no. But lets take the sliding scale down towards butt ugly. She becomes a victim of her own genetics and the social mentality that labels her as ugly and thus keeps her from getting the kind of attention she wants. Sound familiar? Lets face it, bald is one of the ugly descriptors, like fat- the majority of average to hot people don't want to have anything to do with it.

I tried online dating, as an advice from a friend of mine, without any success. The few girls i was interested refused to have any talk with me. As they refuse in real life...

 

[neis]

Online dating was easier when there was the IRC. Many times I got mb numbers. Now with facebook, is impossible ......

Probably true, but really depends on your face and head shape. I don't think it is as bad as being fat though. People say that, but if you got a good body I'm sure you can do at least average even if bad with bad head shape, as long as your face is at least average. It certainly does pull you down quite a bit though. If I had a NW1 I know the 20 year olds would treat me differently. I've seen plenty of 30 year old boy toys getting with hot 20 year olds. The whole age excuse is just a nice way of avoiding, "you're bald."
