I think you look good shaved Lavishous. The neck makes a huge difference how one looks shaved... next to the other obvious factors ofcourse. You would be a beast if you bought some good fitting clothes! Only saying this because it seems that you aren't wearing anything fitting in your pictures.

No alienhead whatsoever, looking good man. I honestly feel like you're at a stage where you can keep shaving. It suits you very good in my opinion. But there's nothing wrong with going on the medical route either (thats what im on lol). like Michel Sapin said, you might get good results
Such a fuckin relief dude. I'll do a minimalist thing to keep my dandruff in check and maybe hang on a bit longer to the buzz before shaving. I actually love the athletic, bald + beard combo (a lot of ufc fighters have this), but only if they've got a decent head-shape/proportions. Tried to get another shot where I look slick bald to see how that looks. You guys better not be sellin me down the river lol!

People on the internet aren't exactly known for holding back their opinion. Since there is a big anonymity factor going on here and the majority of people are saying you look good without hair you shouldn't worry imo

Yeah this seemed like the best way of getting brutally honest feedback. Lemme know if I can help any of you kind gentlemen with anything. Btw if you decide to go the route I have, I think being somewhat muscular/low-bodyfat is kind of a necessity.

Lol very true. I just never gave any thought to how I look until losing the hair and always worked out hard anyway. I legit might look better now shaved because I would always rock a retarded jew-fro and never get haircuts lol. Look at this fuckin rat's nest holy sh*t.

Thanks man. Been lifting on and off for like 4 yrs. Strongest lift is the deadlift, got that up into 450lb range. Freshman yr of college I did a super-bulk and got my weight above 200lbs but was definitely fatter than I wanted to be. Mainly do brazilian jiu jitsu and calisthenics these days and hover around 180 so I can cut to 168 for competitions.

You look much better without hair. There's not even a question about that. It must be so relieving for you to be confident in your skin now and to never have to worry about hairloss and sh*t.

If it's like you say, then its an insane relief. I do kinda enjoy the inherent aggressiveness of no hair and my hair has been tangled sh*t for quite some time. Also a huge metal fan and like half those dudes have shaved heads. If I can pull it off (allegedly), then I suggest more of you guys try. I'd provide honest feedback for you as well. I was COMPLETELY SURE I had a totally absurd head-shape for it and I guess I'm wrong. So there's evidence that more young guys can live life as non-freaks if they give themselves time to adjust to the look.

Just start living your life to the fullest and don't even have a speck of apprehension that you're looking like a skinhead freak. You're the kind of guy that should be posed as the posterboy of "looking better without hair" phrase. You don't have anything to be worried about your looks again.:)

To start, without the hair, I would probably give you a 3 out of 10 and with the hair probably a 3.5 out of 10. Do keep in mind that the only people who I would rate a 10 would be top supermodels, as I rate on a number of factors. In terms of your age, without your hair, you look like you are about 10 years older. That being said, as other posters have mentioned, you have a good head shape for a bald look, and I think with a beard to add balance to the face, would have the same rating compared to having a full head of hair. I do, however, respect you for accepting that you are losing your hair.


I pretty much hate every post you have made on this boards so far.

Don't be scared of finasteride sides espically if you value your hair. I've been on it for a year and now I'm thinking of getting on duta which is a much stronger drug. finasteride really is a very weak drug , it's mostly fear mongering around it. I am someone with anxiety but even I was able to not catch the "physcological sides"

I call this the finasteride fallacy.

'I, myself did not have side effects, therefore they are not real.'

Ahahahahaha f*** finasteride. DHT is a pretty decent hormone on balance. Being a skinhead is kind of an alright trade for beard, deep voice, and sex drive. Any thoughts on my bald dome?

Agreed. And then we are not even talking about the neurological damage...

@Lavishous Honestly bro I'm a pro hair guy and will fight to the death for that, however.. You are one of these genuinely good cases who do suit being bald. You look good with hair and I think you look a bit better without! Your attitude exacerbates that which is excellent. Believe me man,you look fantastic!
