collegechemistrystudent said:The hair itself does not look good. It is the way the temples and hairline frame my face that brings my face up about 2 points. I posted the pic on hotornot, and so far the rating is 9.4. I doubt it will go higher than that, but I'm sure it will stay at least above 8.

collegechemistrystudent said:just the piece. First I went to the school gym. I walked past many students to get in. I went upstairs and ran laps with my friend, checking out the women. We walked around the gym some more afterwards. Everyone acted completely normal. I was careful to only look at them out of the corner of my eye or after they had passed me to see if they looked back. There were a few tall basketball players I walked withing 3 feet of who followed me with their eyes for a few seconds, but I acted impressed by one of their basket ball tricks (giving them value) and they quickly lost interest in checking me out.
I walked around school some more, and met up with other class mates. 4 people who who knew me. All acted completely normal, not even hesitating with conversation. There was that other guy who was amazed that I was 28, who then studied me and seemed to suspect (he was tall and standing 3 feet away). We went down to the local bars and had dinner, and did lots of window shopping. I got out of bed with my hat on.
I'm sure someone suspects, or even knows. But most people won't say anything. Most college students have too much going on in there life to even care enough to gossip. Just a few immature ones would say something to be mean. I'm sure those basket ball players would have ripped on me had I been hitting on their women. But since I gave them value, they lost all interest in picking on me before they even started. If you don't give people eye contact, and don't engage them, or smile at just the right time, they just don't feel interested in this perfect stranger.
I doubt I'll ever see any of those people again, and I doubt more than 5% knew or 15% suspected. And I just bleached it lighter and cleaned it up so it won't be as matty. I'll look better today.

I wouldn't date a girl unless I thought I could make her perfect, or close enough that she'd still be downright beautiful. And I wouldn't expect her to do that on her own. I would tell her my plans for her too. There's no reason to waste a girl's time just because you couldn't be honest with your expectations of her. I'm sure most girls with imperfections want to be made perfect anyhow.
You are a smart man, you could find the money to pay to improve her.
If I was you, I'd focus on getting some FUEs and get those moles removed. You'd then be at least an 8 on the CCS scale, and 8s can look like 10s in the eye of any girl if you both have a good heart. I'm not telling you what to do or anything.....but, that's what I'd be focused on.

I think this is the right attitude. :bravo:
You're not completely obsessing over whether people can notice but are calmly rationally assessing people's reactions. You realize some people will suspect but don't care as long as it looks good and isn't too noticeably 'wiggy'. I think you have the right attitude to make this work. Just don't get too cocky now, like you seem to have the tendency to do when you're feeling good haha. When you're cocky and feeling too good that's when you slip up.
Glad this is working out for you.
