Yeah, I'm a bit like you, man.
I was never in denial, in the early days. In fact I probably overplayed how much hair I was loosing!!
During the early stages of my hair loss, the people around me didn't notice I was balding at all. But I sure as hell knew.

In fact, I become accustomed to the reassurances that I wasn't balding.
I don't get that reassurance so much nowadays, hahaha.. especially when I'm out in the wind.
Oh, no!! People are only then too quick to point out my hair loss.

They only point it out and joke about it before you're completely bald.

The process if funny. But once your there, you'll know. They will roast everything about you,
except baldness!!

balding at 20 = privileged.

this

at 18 years old you can do a good adult haircut

and you had almost 2 years for enjoyng hair priviledge

I NEVER had a chance to chose a haircut besides buzzcut length

What people seem to not forget for those that privileged there way into there twenties is that your teenage years are a learning curve, and shape who you are well into old age. Those core experiences largely influence your development, and how you approach women.


Incels that never experience this are at a huge disadvantage as they get older. The older you get, the harder it gets to break through anxiety, and self-esteem issues.


I see lot's of former studs who are balding (nw3-5) who still manage to pull soley based on the fact that they accumulated those core experiences for when it mattered most. it's as though they have reinforced them self of there value through years of vaginas that got destroyed. They have taken there hits aesthetically, but are still able to pull because of those reinforces experiences.

Incels that bald = Fucked. Essentially going from hard to tier10 hardcore mode.

Lol I didn't realize I was balding until I hit NW2.5. Now I look back at pics and I've been in NW2 land for years

Changes your entire perspective on reality the day you realize you have a genetic predisposition for your head to become permanently disfigured

Lots of NW2-3's I know don't seem to realize what's going on, the way they wear their hairlines fully exposed, posting pics on facebook that don't hide it at all...in a way I envy them...but in a way I don't. I'm glad I didn't catch this sh*t any later.

Also, @Admin , can we move this thread to impact?
If you're a strong NW2-3 exposing the hairline usually looks better than a combover pretending to be NW0.

It depends...sometimes. But you put yourself at risk of the balding stigma if there are any norwood spotters around

He is so freaking hot in my book. LOVE him.

Just recently started watching the leftovers and I really like his character and enjoy his acting

Question though: does it not take away from your attraction of him, or other dudes with moderate (not past NW3)recession, since we know male pattern baldness is a one way street and inevitably he is headed toward baldness if his hair loss is untreated and he lives long enough?

That's what I'm referring to by the "balding stigma." Even if you're NW2.5 or whatever, and you're not really bald...you're "balding"....and your genetic endstate is almost definitely NW6-7(granted some slow receders would have to live to absurd ages for their hair loss to reach this level)

It's why I'm getting a transplant to a non balding hairline...I don't want to give any prick the satisfaction of looking at me and thinking I might be bald one day

Justin Theroux has had the same hairline for 16 years though! Here he is in American Psycho (2000). Wonder if he's on finasteride/dutasteride.

Honestly i don't look at men and think if their hair is going to effect there looks in long run. LOL i dont know if after being on this site if i might start doing this--i hope not lol.

I notice if someone is hot to me in the moment...i dont really think about down the line.

granted i do not know if he would look as good if he were bald..I do like some men who are bald Ed Harris (younger) and Woody Harrelson are two examples..Hair no hair they are sexy as hell to me.

Of course this is not the case for everyone so i dont want to sound like i am blowing smoke up peoples butts about men who are bald being attractive.

I have dated men both bald and balding and if they look good in the moment its not a concern.

(i love The Leftovers it's so trippy)

Damn he's better looking now...looks a bit bloated in that pic. Low body fat % is doing him good

He's gotta be on finasteride/dutasteride along with 99% of hollywood. Lol no way he has a hairline in that pattern that isn't male pattern baldness

But you're a norwood spotter now! There's no going back

jk, hopefully you'll continue to experience the dampening within your lady part when Mr. handsome NW3 approaches you

Do you think knowing that a dude was using finasteride/minoxidil would affect your level of attraction to him?

Yesterday i went to buy my month supply of finasteride (i can only get 1 month a time) from a 24/7 pharmacy, i usually go there by night time so my bald-shame is not quite as bad.
At nightime its often young people behind the counter (students i suppose) and this time it was a young man probably my age (24) rocking his Norwood 2-3.
I show my social security card, and he's asking if i have any questions and if iam satisfied so far, i answer that "its sh*t, but its the only option WE have"
After that he starts blushing (a "f*** is it that noticeble" moment), give me my finasteride, i pay (without a word) and he rushes away from the counter...

I think i delivered an unasked red pill to this dude.... feel so sorry, gonna be akward as f*** next time

You only wanted one guy more in your hair loss depression boat. If he commits suicide, you are responsible for that.

Lipitor?? What?

Comb overs are the thing to do. Know guys that had a Norwood III, and looked
like a Norwood 2 or less with a comb over. Hides bald spots.

Showing the bald areas is the worst thing someone can do.
