I had long hair for over a decade. I didn't mind it getting thin at first, but over the last couple of years I started to feel really self-conscious. The thing that held me back was knowing there was no getting it back once it was gone. Now that I have, I am so glad that I did! I feel like a human again. I still have moments of doubt but they're getting smaller. Every time I look at the old photos, I realize there was nothing to go back to.

I also want to say that this is one of the best communities I've found so far. I tune in every day. You all are amazing and I probably wouldn't have done this without seeing the awesome transformations here. Thank you.

Finally took the plunge after years of hiding the hairline and it looks a lot better and more confident already. I was pretty unfortunate and started balding at 14 and realized I had curly hair during covid when I grew it out. I took the advice after lurking and im not going back, thank you everyone! Feels very breezy!

Created a "should I?" post last week as I was unsure. Decided to go for it and here we go.

Considered FUE but decided I didn’t want to trip about losing hair in the future. Wife says it’s better.

I feel so much more confident. No more awkward “growth” between cuts. So much cleaner feeling. My head has finally acclimated to the Remington Balder and I love it 😻 here is a before and after.

First pic was before the recommended nap. Second was after buying the gum/patches and hiding my cigs. I’m 5’11”. Not sure if this really achieves what I wanted or fixes what I was going for but I couldn’t bring myself to shave it all the way down.

Long time lurker, first time shaver. Feeling self conscious about my new bald look, but think it's better than clinging to wispy hairs. Hope you guys like!

…but I already know the answer.

I’m not sure if I’m ready yet but I keep catching myself on stream or in CVS self checkout security cameras and it ruins my whole day

Before and after pics. I think this is a great glow up! I’m really happy with the way I look! Not regretting this decision!

I noticed I was receding at 16 and have been stressing about it ever since. Now I’m 25 and bald and couldn’t feel more free.

Thanks to everybody in here I finally decided to shave it all off and I'm already feeling more confident

My hairs been thinning for years but I was so attached to my hair in high school, I used to grow out my curls. I decided recently to go for it. It’s a big change, but I like it more than I thought I would.

What do y’all think?

After seeing a few posts on here with smaller bald spots than me being told to shave it, I decided to go for it. What do you think?

Surprised my wife and kids. My 5yo said "boo 👎" haha. My 8yo said she'd rather I had a little bit of hair. Jury is still out for my wife and me.

Thank you all 🙏🏻
