Thinking of moving on from here and hair loss

I seem to post some of the most well liked posts on here but I want to get over the negativity. I was listening to a truly beautiful piece of music today (Beethoven piano sonata no. 8) and it hit me... Why not just forget hair loss and move on? I've been bald over 3 years and I'm still going. It would be

-no more talk of treatments or systems or transplants. Systems are the only proper cure for a high norwood and I refused to wear one. Full Prince William or pep guardiola.

-Come on here just once per week. In the time that I save, read more books or listen to more great music.

-start a YouTube channel or website (wearing hat in videos if I want) so that I can post or speak or express my opinions more and share my views on hair loss and other terrible things in life.

What got me here was thinking that whatever hair transplant I have I'd be stuck with a bald crown and visible horseshoe... How much of an improvement would it be over the Pep Guardiola..? With my case, it's not guaranteed that I'd like it better. Guys with hair are better than me for sure. But so are lots of people for lots of reasons. Instead of praying for hair, why can't a person pray for the strength to live without hair.

Has anybody here tried this, or something like the 30 day head shaving challenge? The sly bald guys may look silly but we're the ones crying and bemoaning our hair loss every day, while they feel good about themselves, even if it is blissful ignorance. Even Joe Tillman and Spencer Kobren seem like they are exhausted after spending a lifetime staying on top of their hair loss and say that the best treatment of all is to accept it and do nothing. People are becoming more isolated and lonely. It's true that your social and romantic life will be much worse while bald, but that's the way the world is going anyway.

Why? I like being an in shape natural. Doing that I would be a lower tier juicer. I'm saying to do nothing about hair loss besides the haircut, beard and dressing well and just getting on with whatever life there is for you.

Good for you man, alot of guys deal with this differently whether by treatments or straight up faking it with a wig but nothing beats finding freedom from the stress and anxiety of thinking about it. Shaving it really does help a long way, like building to a level of acceptance - sure their will be days you feel less an days when you want to wear a cap that's normal. But the main goal is to stop caring as much yep

You should just shave in your situation or system it and not look back...if a legit cure comes out you'll hear about it anyway, until then keep finding things to enjoy in life like you described, looking for what matters to you as well like a relationship and family you once mentioned. Pop in here for light hearted banter once in a while if that is something you manage. All my time on here I saw so many types of guys and the ones that had it bad were the ones torturing themselves, you could see the pain in their posts like a broken record and it would never end. It could be over a Norwood 1.5 or severe hair loss or women or whatever but they would never get the answers here despite trying, don't be those guys and waste your life. Everyone has the right to vent but in those cases they are only harming themselves the way I see it with no benefit.

As I say light hearted chat on here, or sharing stories of your life (dating, otherwise) on here with people who "know you" is fine but if the place makes you more depressed, that's when you got to take action.

Just let go and be the best male that you were supposed to be. Managing male hair loss without estrogen is not a particularly fruitful activity and getting it back, even with estrogen or oral minoxidil, can take years and both have significant side-effects if used in therapeutic doses.

Best,

He has a good head shape, I'm starting to think shaving it is his best option, maybe even laser hair removal to get rid of the horseshoe look and just be completely bald.

That's a big positive about the head shape. He'll put it off then, has a tan too, if only he was average height at least but the other factors are more important, the face will look fine due to tan and headshape. I don't know his donor capacity but he could do smp/transplant and maintain a buzz? Touch of SMP on dark skin is fine. But again, if he pulls off a clean shaved head just fine, the shaved buzz look isn't that crucial and won't change things much so why bother. It sounds like a good decision to avoid transplants in his case, just will end up with lots of scars, baldness and grandpa combover. I wouldn't laser the horseshoe in case he changes his mind or some new technology is out, he can simply epilate the horseshoe. I got my girl to epilate me for the beach for a smooth look (even though I am not hairy and none on the back etc) and you get used to the pain. Epilation results last weekly easily unlike shaving.

SMP is a strange one, gives illusion of hair but what happens if a girl rubs her hand on it and can’t feel the stubble?

oh i mean hair plus smp all over. On it's own smp looks like crap and embarrassing, still looks slightly normal on dark skin but on light skin it looks so bad, I've seen a couple of guys with it and it's a joke. Think about it, it's hair tattoos, so to save ridicule its essential to mix with hair.
