I would disregard this as immaterial, particularly because of sample and confirmation bias. There aren't just material flaws in the analysis (using an isolated study based on live video testimony. bear in mind that when a camera is in front of you, you are more than likely to alter your opinion in favor of maintain political correctness. (behavioral tendencies found unilaterally in bare basis questionnaires as an example).
As I've done throughout, I think that you are doing an essential disservice to the younger cohort of folks in suggesting that balding in an assert because it worked for you. Blanketed statements are immaterial to the broader scope because they are insufficient in sample size, and are tailored specifically to the individual. Some folks might value their hair infinitely more than another, and some won't care at all. (I have colleagues that are on both sides of the aisle. The former would likely progress to clinical depression if indeed he went through progressively worsening balding, while the latter voluntarily kept his head buzzed since he was young, so it was never really an issue of materiality when he was progressing through the process.
I'm of the belief that the extremities aren't always the prudent. Yes, balding ceteris paribus will adversely affect opportunities within the dating league circles, and spontaneous coitus percolation. However, it doesn't preclude these folks from getting married, having healthy relationships, and pursuing and progressing through life. Identity loss and societal stigma are often more difficult to overcome in magnitude than is the thought of getting over the absence of dead keratin on top of your head. As well all react differently and hold different valuations on the intrinsic value of our follicles, it is much more appropriate to remit to the individuals, and leave them to decide what they wish to do. If they want to do everything in their power to keep their hair? excellent. If they want to go your route? That's fine as well. However, there is no blanket statement that works as a one size fit all.
