Opinions Plz I Have Been Buzzing My Head

[Christoppp]

I had to take a break from the forums and figure my life out. I met a girlfriend (grew my hair out) and I started buzzing 4 months ago and she acts like she loves me more than anything so I guess that’s good. I’m mainly wondering outside opinions what I should do ? I usually buzz with a 1/2 , 1/16th of an inch every week or so. Here are some pics. Please I use you guys as support and I want to know should I grow the beard longer and is the length okay or go shorter ? I appreciate the input I’m trying to not let this ruin my life.

No homo,but you look very good with a buzzed head. I think that the trimmed beard looks great as well since it accentuates your jawline and gives it a nice definition. Don't worry about anything man,you've got a girl who loves you and you seem to have a nice paying job as well(nurse get payed well I suppose). Get off the forum and never worry about your hair again,life's all sorted for you now and a happy future awaits you.

Looks great. You have dark features and decent facial hair. I would try growing the beard out and seeing how it looks

You still have something to frame your face,thats why it looks good,NW4+ when buzzed looks stupid.I hope u stay in this stage for a long time,because if you lost hair on front,u will probably lost confidence again.

It is sad but I can’t dwell on it my entire life. There are a lot of things that could be worse and it took me along time to realize that.

That’s my worst nightmare because I went through a year long depression but I am taking meds and working on my future. My biggest concern was finding a mate. I never really cared what people cared about me and had a high self confidence before losing hair so I hope I can stay this way.

Thank you guys for the replies. I’m going to try and grow the facial hair out to a fuller beard. I’m not sure at what point it no longer looks professional.

Do you taking propecia? Finding a mate isnt that hard,as some women dont hate baldies,but being satisfied with yourself,when u look in the mirror thats different story.I can say right now for myself thats my confidence is totally low,nw5 at age 26 its like being cursed.

Well, it depends on what you "WANT" out of life and what options you want later

If you let it go it would be hard to do a transplant later

But if you want to maximize your looks, you dont want to jump ship now just because it would be "easier" at the moment

You look very good. If you want to look even better (my opinion) grow the beard longer and buzz it off a little shorter.

@Christoppp
Are you really that happy or you're just smiling for the pics?
Emanating positivity and confidence is more important than we think.
I can't remember the last time i smiled.

Even I can't remember the last time I smiled genuinely. Life is just a meaningless chore to me

Finasteride caused awful side effects and at this rate of hair loss it started quick I choose to accept my fate. A lot of the problems were all in my head. If better treatments come I will hop on those. I still use minoxidil

I want to say I’m genuinely that happy but it took a year if suicidal thoughts and not smiling. I’m also 5,6, only parent alive is dying , and I’m in my most stressful part of my life as I’m in nursing school and losing my hair. I was suicidal last year and would not leave the house. I did not smile at all and everyone around me treated me differently. I thought it was because of my hair change. I started seeing a psychiatrist and started an anti depressant. I also met a girl that likes me for me at least I believe ( she met me when I didn’t even have clean clothes from depression and offered very little to her ) but she stuck around and brings a lot of happiness to my life. I meditate everyday and workout and nice a healthy life style. Also when I start getting negative thoughts , I quickly channel them into positives ones. I’ve always been one of the most confident and happy people I have known in my circle. I choose to not let the things I can’t change affect my confidence and happy and instead change things I have control of. Life is too short to be depressed if you can get help I strongly suggest it. I also should add I feel a lot better since going back to school because I’m working towards something and that brings confidence And happiness to my life.

That is depression man. I was in the same boat but I decided to make changes to my life and I’m genuily happy again. Don’t let it change your life man.
