There's no point trying to look "younger" than you actually are. They will know, no matter what.

#52Excuse me for the slight off-topic, but in regards to hair: has anyone noticed that people are shaving their heads randomly more during the pandemic? Maybe just boredom. Or a desire to self-actualize during the lockdown. What a weird way for humanity to react to a crisis. I did it too.
I think the reason is quite simple (it was for me): The alternatives are to let your hair grow wild, go to the barber and risk getting COVID, or have someone in your family trim it with the risk of looking terrible.

#53I'm overlooking the "teeth" part of this story to share a bit of an anecdote here. I'm a guy, and I lost my hair when I was about 21. I spent a while trying every medication (many of which have sexual health side effects), but I don't think I was ever actually happy until I just accepted that I was bald and that was just part of how I looked. Don't get me wrong — I would love having hair again, but it doesn't bother…
My maths teacher once joked that he finds it difficult every morning to wash his face as he don't know where his face starts and ends :D

I vaguely knew a dude who got bald at 20. Beside the slightly strange feeling in the early days it really never made a difference in how we were with him. But he was a cool guy so that helped.

I started going gray in my mid 20's, and I made a similar choice. I just accepted that this is how its gonna be, and came to terms with it, not that I dont go out of my way to minimize it now that I'm in my late 30's thru hair cuts. But I dont bother with dye or any of that.

Was shaving my head the best decision? Of course. I still had some hair in front and a lots on the sides. But top of my head is almost bald and my hair is quite thin. So I would always have bad hair and would fix it in the bathroom constantly. Wearing hat was a problem. Going on a holiday to tropical country - bad hair every day. I shaved that thing after returning from 4 weeks in Indonesia. I just had enough of it. A lot of women complimented my looks. My wife got used to it I think. But if there was a way of making my hair the way it was when I was young without side effects and transplants? I would probably try it. But until that day comes, I am shaving my head and don't care about anybody.

Are the barber shops allowed to operate where those people live? Are people allowed to travel all the way to whoever used to cut their hair?
Shaving it all away is easy.

> “If it helps anyone else out there: no one else thinks about your hair besides you.” I had a girl cancel a date when she learned I was balding (she explicitly told a friend this) so there’s a reason men feel bad about it. That said, shaving your head and getting on with your life is the right approach and has a lot of other benefits anyway. Elon did something different, but for most people going bald, shaving your…

Sure, in that specific case I’d agree it’s a flag.
But there’s a general truth to sexual attractiveness in there, and it’s better to accept the reality as it is and adapt.

Remember what the dormouse said: Shave your head (or something like that)

Isn't it simply that it's impossible to get a haircut, and shaving it off is something you can do by yourself easily?
