Excuse me if i dont pick up sarcasm, but that in my eyes that guy is no way attractive or good looking. Hes not ugly. But if he wasnt famous ( i dont know who he is or what he does) he would probably have a hard time getting pussy with the hair loss he has.
I go through stages of accepting my hair loss, and being depressed about it. When i get a proper short buzz cut, I feel great, it looks quite good. But give it 3-4 days and my forehead begins to look bulbous. I hate how the forehead begins to become the most prominant part of the face. Im about an nw2, but my recession is wide on the temples. On a postive note, when my hair is on my sides is a grade 1 shave, it looks fine, or at least i feel it makes my head look normal, so perhaps a completely bald look wont look so bad. Its going to take me a long time to completely accept my hairloss. the difficult thing is, its so hard to accept it, as its always changing for worse, but some days your hair feels a lot better than others.
There seems to be like 20% of bald guys that sport it really well. Perhaps another 20% that sport it ok, than 60% that it just looks pretty crap on. Generally within the 60% its the guys, espeically older ones who have let their whole bodies go - fat, bad skin, negative attitude etc. I can kind of see that its easy to just slowly give up. When you have no male pattern baldness and your good looking, I guess its easier to follow a healthier way of life. With great looks, you would just want to mantain them, and it would be easy to get girls and you would be treated well by people you came into contact with in everyday life generally well - so there incentives to stay in good shape and healthy if you were had most of your hair and were good looking would be obvoius. But on the other hand, lets say you have gone bald, and you have shaven it all off. The motivation to stay healthy and so on is probably going to be harder as your only mantaining a substandard look anyway. And lets say if you work out, eat right, do all the things you could do to try within reason and keep a good physice and appearence but you still dont get girls, then im sure it would begin to be hard to constantly mantain a healthy way of life. I guess then its probably better to mantain a healthy way of life for less atheisitc reasons, and you actually want and like to feel healthy, and looking in glowing health would just be a bonus of this way of life.
One thing I find tremondusly difficult is trying to find a middle way between taking good care of your body and going out and indulging. After too many nights of drinking, or of eating crap food, and not feeling healthy. I feel really guilty as I know im not doing all I can to preserve my hair. Its tough.
The toughest thing i have found is that how our hair, even slightly changed or receded can change the way we look so dramatically. I am only nw2, but the way my sides have gone, I now have a bulging forehead, and i know it has already lowered my attractiveness. I know this may seem arrogant, but i felt before male pattern baldness had really started to become noticalble i was an 8 out of 10, perhaps 9 on a good day. Now on average I already feel like a 6 out of ten. Sometimes 7 or 8 when i am feeling healthier or have a fresh trim. This sucks. Perhaps if i had a girlfreind i would begin to feel better about myself, and build up some more self esteem. But because I dont have one, I am finding it hard to build up self esteem. So its kind of a catch 22 situation I guess. I hate that feeling that I only have 2-3 years give or take before my looks as they are now completely transform, and I can no longer easily attract girls like I used to. I guess im going to have to try and keep as healthy as possible and keep myself looking as young as possible and hope for the best. Its so sh*t knowing that if I had no male pattern baldness, the next ten years would be spent in a lot more happiness.
Anyway, sorry the the rambling on, its my release. I hope you enjoy the read.
i feel bad for the ones who used to be good looking and then turned ugly/less then decent looking thanks to male pattern baldness, i think these are the ones that get it worse.
