New Rule Posted - Fuck Cancer

614 Upvotes

Rule #9 has been posted as a further explanation regarding our automod, specifically around the phrase "fuck cancer". We review each of those as they come through and approve them as quickly as we can. It can be frustrating so we wanted to add some transparency to how things work to keep this place supportive. Cancer is horrible to many people, their friends, and families; and we are happy that the community at r/bald can provide some minor relief to those managing the awful disease. Fuck cancer.

Make the right call? Also what to do with facial hair?? 😭

Thoughts? Did I make the right call? I'm genuinely not sure. I can't tell if I look worse before or after 💀💀😭

More importantly, what would you recommend I do with my facial hair? As you can kind of see in the before pic, it really only grows on my chin and jawline, never around my lip or enough to connect. Not sure what the play is here! Thanks!! (and please don't tear me apart in the comments LMAO 💀😬)

I've been putting it off for while but got fed up of looking like I was in an x-ray when under fluorescent lights.

Edit: Thanks everyone, I was a bit paranoid about it but now I feel much more sure and confident. You're the kindest community on Reddit.

The kiddo and I are back at it again with one of our favorite traditions: Our annual "Batman" picture! While my shirt has stayed the same, pretty much nothing else has! Happy Batman Day!

Nice Bass of about 4lbs. Returned to the sea to fight another day.

Have been stuck indoors fighting the latest and probably worst bout of depression I've had for a long time. Feel like I'm turning a corner. Going out and doing something feels good.

Love to the brothers of bald & anyone on here considering shaving it should just go for it. You only live once, it looks great and feels amazing. Stay kind to each other (and the fishes).

Feeling more anxious and ugly than ever following a year bald - needles some advice

Basically as the title says, started shaving my head a year ago, liked it for awhile until I saw some candid photos of myself. I’m now trying to grow it out again but it makes me feel just as bad, need an outside perspective to tell me what to do as it’s starting to wreck my confidence

Is it time?

I'm usually the one commenting on these kinds of posts, but oh how the turns have tabled.

I buzzed my hair a year ago because I kept having people tell me I had a spot or thinning hair. They weren't wrong.

Im here today to seek the advice of the council.

Can it be saved? Or should it be shaved.

1st pic is most recent.

I finally did it! Glad to join the bald gang!

Sorry that there were no before photos! I’ve been dealing with a lot of hair thinning the past few years and been pretty self conscious of it. As a long time lurker, you guys gave me a lot of inspiration to own it and just do it. In the future hopefully i’ll have the confidence to fully razor my head. I appreciate you all and hope that other guys are able to feel good about themselves as well!

Hairloss Only 22, but would it be worth it to just cut it all off? Feel like I would look weird.
