WTF DID I JUST DO!!

[JayB]

fuckin sh*t man! I decided to shave my head last night at 11pm because i have important exams and im finding myself obsessing and playing with my hair. Besides that ive been shedding more than usual.

So i shart shaving, originally i wanted to make a mohawk but i shaved the vertex first because i completely forgot about wanting a mohawk in my spur of the moment decision to shave. So after i realized i had to shave my entire head now, I decided to cut the top of my head since its long and i didnt want the buzzer ripping at the hair. I get to my hairline and cut, and realized I actually CUT it LOWER than the buzzer does.

SO NOW it looks like i have a bald spot at the temple and i look like im receding. So what i decided to do to eleviate stress has added to it because my temple is now at a #1 while my entire head is a #4.

i look like a tool to the trained eye. most people prob wouldnt notice but i think subconsciously everyones going to think im receding now.

Sounds shitty, man... but you can't hide your balding forever, just face the facts man. If someone sees/thinks that you're receding, so what? Many men are receding at their mid-20s. Dunno how old you are though.

Shave it all to the bone now, its your best option.

Youve shaved your head fella.

Big-deal.

Maybe your sub-concious made you do what you did?

Fact of the matter is the majority of women like men with short hair.
It doesnt matter what you say, all the women you should deal with think this way.
Fact of the matter is long hair on a man looks sh*t.Speak to women when there sobre and not in clubs and the majority like men with short hair.

From all the women ive spoken to short hair prevails.Why would you want to look like a girl or a little kid?
The way I look at is, youve been given the hair-doo that you were designed to have regardless if it slowly disappears as you get older.It just means (in my own opinion) that your subconcious wants more than ugly easy tarts on a friday night.
You now have to work hard for attractive girls that have attractive personalities.Maybe thats what your sub-conciocous is screaming out for.


Remember, if you think your ugly with hair-loss, harsh fact of the matter is you were never good-looking to begin with.

shave the 'non-balding' areas very close, possibly 'bick' the areas and don't shave the 'balding' areas allowing the area to grow. After several days the non balding areas will grow faster giving the appearance that you have equal coverage.


Similar idea of cutting your hair short on the sides and back and growing it out long on the top for the 'illusion' of non- thinning hairline the most you can.

its not the first time i shaved my head....i actually like doing it every few months..

what im saying is that my hairline on one side looks fine, but because i cut the other side with scissors lower than the buzzer buzzed it, it looks like i have no hair there eventhough i really do...
if i hadnt cut it before i shaved it, my hair would look awesome like this..but NOW because of the way i cut it- my hairline only on one temple looks like its creeping a lot further up my head than it really is. Sucks...if i hadnt cut it, there wouldnt be a recessed look to my hairline

no no i think you guys are missing my point- see my explanation above.

i CUT the top of my hair with scissors before i shaved it so that i could shave it smoother without ripping the long hairs out. THen i shaved it on a #4 guard. However, on my left temple area i wasnt thinking properly and i CUT it with one quick snip of the scissors all the way down to what would probably be a #1 guard.

SO i now have my entire head shaved on a #4 guard, with one little area right on my hairline that is the equivalent of a #1 guard. Hence, when im standing far away it looks like a bald spot lol

ah its really subtle but now i just want my hair to grow and fill in so it doesnt look retarted. Does anyone here take MSM?? Will that help my hair grow quicker?

here's what you need to do. go up to each and every person you meet from now on and the next 2-3 weeks and explain exactly what you did and the reason for the apparant receding hairline. if you explain this to them, i'll sure they'll realize how foolish they are...

good idea..im thinking of getting one of those signs that you put your head through for human advertising... that might be easier

Shaving it down so that everything is at the same length isn't an option? That way everything will grow at the same length. Maybe that would be better than having the bald spot on the hair line.

MSM will increase the rate of growth of your hair but since you are freaking out waiting for your hair to grow in, it will probably not seem like it is doing much of anything (since you will be looking at it several times per day obsessing about it).

If you are sure that you do not want to shave it to the #1 guard length then, if I were in your shoes, I would get some MSM... I know that where I live (New England), they sell it at drug stores.

If you have any dermatch, then you can use that to help conceal the spot, but I am not sure if that will work.

I would suggest getting some MSM and just wearing a hat for a bit.

most guys in their late 20's start to have receeding hairlines...It's normal. A lot of them still look good with shaved head even their headline receeded at the temples. I don't think its a big deal. Then again, its just my thought.
