Welcome to JP's story. In this video I sat down with JP and he detailed his experience with losing his hair at a young age. We talked about how his hair started to go thin at the crown, how he took to wearing hats every day and then how his hairline began to recede. As a former model losing his hair in college was very tough. Recent events and reflections have given him the courage to go with a new shaved head look, focus on other things and finally put hair loss behind him for good. We had a good chat and JP also shares the moment he shaved off his thinning hair for the first time.
Thank you so much JP, not only for having the courage to take this step but also for sharing it to help and inspire others through their own hair loss journey.

#Balding #Headshave #receding
He looks great bald.
Almost everyone does, those who doesn’t have never tried
Guys with good facial aesthetics/skulls usuallly do
Actually, it's all about having the right shaped head. Also, the pattern of baldness makes a big difference to the aesthetic. No one wants an 'egg in the nest look haha
he looks better with hair, as does everyone
Yeah, he looks cool with it. A bit of a Billy Zane/Yul Brynner vibe going.
Honestly wtf is with the ppl he considers 'friends'. Yelling at the back of the van full of people about someone's hair loss is so extra and just toxic, immature bullying you'd expect from middle schoolers 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
yeah society bullies bald people and laugh about balding without knowing what balding feels like at a young age
Being young and stupid for real. And not knowing how it feels yea.. rough
It’s a combination of being young and childish....with (I’ll bet) jealousy mixed in there.
He’s a good looking dude (no homo) so certain dudes think of ways to bring him down
I woulda threw that “friend” off the bus
Yeh.. Like I kinda laughed when my friend sent me a picture of his receeding hairline. Like he doesn't give a shit about his balding at all.
But I could NEVER put him out like that. I would feel bad for years.
This guy has got his life made. He looks fantastic and has now removed this irritation so he can focus on living it. Best wishes.
I'm a woman and I found this channel looking for information on traction alopecia. I had no idea that men really had so many complicated thoughts about their hair and struggled with just shaving it. I've watched many of these videos and without exception, the men look better after they shave their heads. We all have stuff we're insecure about, but guys you look great with a bald head : )
Agreed. They look great.
Please dont lie. It is NOT looks good at all. Bald head makes you look like 45 even if you only 25. It is fkn unhealble pain in the heart. I hate this shit and this live for that. Why the hell I have to be bald at 25 if many people dont even have this problem at their 70. This is bullshit.
@@NKN82 bro it's just hair you're not the only one, I have seen bald guys pull way hotter chicks than some guys with perfect hairlines and look way happier about their lives because they can focus on the things that really matter
After decades of chatting with other women about what we like about guys and their looks, I barely ever, barely ever!, hear anyone mention baldness as a bad thing. Only ever in the context of "going bald," rather than actually being bald. I've heard many, many more women express that "bald men are sexy."
Of course, everyone is different. Each person has certain things they are/aren't attracted to. But that's true about everything. Some people are going to be attracted to you; some aren't. No matter what. Hair or no.
@@mimim7026 I think baldness - whether it's male or female projects confidence in oneself. Besides, most men experience some sort of hair loss by their 40's so it would really be limiting to say no bald men. Thinning/Brittle hair and a receding hairline will seriously age a man (or woman), and shaving it off takes years off your perceived age. I'm a woman and I have my own issues with hair loss so who am I to judge?
this guy is good looking as fuck lol you can still model without hair dude
Cool it wang! But yeah he looks better bald
yeah i was about to say lmao he still looks so good
@@conservativehippie13 let him admire the guy! He looks good as fuck! Lol
There are bald male models..with models it's all about the face and body type..not hair
@@angiem8434 its not about hair? I would rethink..
Man I'm so glad I found your channel Harry. I'm a 21 year old who's been facing hair loss since 17. I've thought about shaving my head but always thought I was too young but seeing people my age and relating to them is motivating me to just go and shave it all off. Thanks for creating this platform and space for people to share their stories and show others they're not alone.
Im in the same boat as u brother similar age too. Have tried talking to family about it but they didn't understand, its good to know you are not alone.
@@jormungandr19 Definitely man. I'm worried about what my parents are friends will say. But I feel like if you show them it's something you like and wanted to and radiate positivity, they'll reflect that emotion.
@@funckypickle77 probably yeah the conversation just didn't go incredibly well for me but i think it probably go's better for most foke, but it doesn't really matter i think if it will make you feel better go for it. But even just talking about it made me feel a little better.
What can i do ? i have also shave my head but i don't like the shape of my head. It weird and i look old. I have 19 y old.I feel very insecure
@@damienoptc7222 beard maybe or try some confidence boosting exercises. Or work out and exercise it releces feel good chemicals in your brain and might help.
We do really weird things to cover our baldness but when we decide to accept it, feels like if you take off a weight from your back.
What can i do ? i have also shave my head but i don't like the shape of my head. It weird and i look old. I have 19 y old
@@damienoptc7222 man what i could tell you is, that nobody has the perfect head shape for being bald, like you and me, it just happen, but you could try not to shave at the beggining but try the clipper number one, while you can feel comfortable. And let grow up your beard, if you dont have beard a clean style is nice as well. You can do it.💪👈
@@damienoptc7222 I can’t wait to get tan. My head is pale
@@damienoptc7222 Bro if your head shape is weird do less care about it focus on other things. there are great things to do, It is ok to live without girls.. if someone truly love you she won't judge on ur looks 🙂
@@damienoptc7222 hi friend, how is ur situation now after 2 years? im 21 now and i am and was in ur situation.
Harry is literally a hero.
I shaved my head and expected family and friends to talk rubbish but instead I just received compliments.
Thanks bro
‘I was my hair!’ That epitomized exactly how I identified with my ‘rockstar’ hair at 18. Lol! Such a mature and brilliant dude. You own that shaved look man. Thanks for sharing!
The zero looks great. You look great bald. Keep on getting confident.
The buzzcut is much better than clean shaved in my opinion. It adds character to the head and blends nicely with a beard or stubble .
What can i do ? i have also shave my head but i don't like the shape of my head. It weird and i look old. I have 19 y old
@@damienoptc7222 I would play around with different lengths also maybe try a hair fade where you take the sides down shorter and leave the top . Also beards are also a good way to balance out an uneven head . I myself have a peanut head which comes out at the back and i use different hair and beard styles to help balance it out . Don't give up I'm sure you will get comfortable with it after a while 👍
Depends on how much hair you have left and your balding pattern honestly. For diffuser who still got a hairline left I agree, 0 buzz looks great, but if your hairline already starts at the top of your head or your crown is fully bald, I'd go with a wet shave instead.
@@WButterTBWButter i am diffused thinning. I have still my hairline however i have lost 70 % of my density.I lost my hair even at side and back of my head because of DUPA ( diffsued unpatterned alopecia)
@@WButterTBWButter some real good points there mate and to be honest that's how i have always viewed it but as of late i think that even someone without a hairline and a serious horse shoe can still look really good with a 0 buzzcut and maybe even a #1 depending on the person. Statham is a good example of what I'm talking about .
This is tough to hear as someone who is starting to see his hair go. I'm glad that the guy feels better about himself.
Such a good point about attributing values to the wrong place. placing your value in looks is a losing battle. Fairplay to him, he looks really great bald.
if he doesn't care about looks, why did he feel the need to shave it all off then?
Whoever makes fun of people losing hair deserves to go bald :P
@@SJ-cl4wq Your idea of alpha is surely distorted. Let me list a few bald people and you tell me if they're alpha or not. Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Shaq, Vin Diesel, Jason Statham and many more. These guys could have easily stopped hair loss with their money but they chose not to let it consume their lives
@@SJ-cl4wq Then your countries society
is probably weak by the sounds of it
@@SJ-cl4wq Many famous men have been open about balding and why would I be embarrassed, to me it seems your society has made you this way and you have my sympathy, hope you can find light at the end of the tunnel man
@@SJ-cl4wq If they didn't like being bald they would've bought a transplant or done something about it, they have more than enough money. I think you just have a problem with bald men having a medium where they can feel comfortable and like I said before thats probably because of the society you were raised in.
@@SJ-cl4wq I'm not balding though XD I watch these out of curiosity so if it does come a point where I'm balding I'll be prepared
Looks amazing!! My favourite part in these videos is when they've shaved half of it off and say some variation of 'Wow. It doesn't look that bad. Actually, I think I like it", with a giant smile on their face 😃
Hello Christina !!
you are very kind women i appricite your commente
Más mujeres como tu!
Hair loss is a paradox. It happens to so many guys, and doesn't discriminate, that you'd expect people to empathise. But that's actually often the reason they don't empathise
They never empathise
@@bavidlynx3409 its so fucking brutal, this is why I'm scared of going bald
I went bald at 19...my son starting balding at 17...its tough on the ego, especially if you had long hair. Ive found that once its done people just accept it as your new look. No one even mentions it, and its seems that women don't care. Just rock it with confidence.
My dad went bald when he was 16 shaved it off. I never knew him with hair. I've looked at old pictures and personally find that he looks weird with hair. The big thing is you yourself getting used to it and your family and friends but just walking around, no one even knows anything different and eventually you and everyone around you gets used to it. It's not as big of a deal as some people make it out to be.
stop liying, women do care if you are bold, just they don´t say it
and the rock is fucking rich
@@zizarronixAny woman that won't date a guy who is bald ISNT WORTH. Sometime in your twenties you will realize that a girl who's but that's all she's got ain't happening.
I went to school with a kid back in the early 1980's, at 14-15yrs old he was bald as a coot. Never bothered him nor did it bother us. Weird how different things effect people. Started losing mine i'd say around 30 but very very slowly and 20+yrs later still losing it but it's never bothered me because for near on 45-50yrs i have always had a buzz cut hairstyle. I have always wished i never had any hair or stubble because i hate having to waste time shaving and cutting it off. I did wish to have alopecia once.😐
These story’s of dudes in their 20’s balding really give me some comfort, as a balding bro who grew out his hair I find myself thinking I want to shave it all off but I’m scared of taking the poundage these make me feel like I can do it
If I would meet this lad I wouldn't even think about his hair or no hair. He seems like a super chill dude, I like his mindset! Cheers to you! I will follow with the hairstyle in a couple of weeks haha
I’m 16 and have been balding for about a year now it’s tough but I’m going to get through it
I'm 38 and started losing my hair at 17. Been a long road. Now that I'm older I don't care but being young and balding is very hard.
16? Are you actually balding or was your hairline just maturing?
take propecia and use minoxidil, i started losing my hair at 15, i m 23 now and i have solid hair
@@hollowinside1962 any side effects???
@@rxxxplays5894 none
I’m 25 and my hairs been falling out for the last 4 months because of late onset alopecia. Finally took the plunge today and shaved it all off, razored down to the skin and it feels f*cking amazing. No more worrying about trying to hide my hair loss on zoom calls, or my hair falling out on my pillow/in the shower. Take the plunge guys, you’ll look and feel so much tidier once it’s gone. Thanks for this channel and these videos, been a real help.
1:00 I wouldn't call him a friend
Yea, that's a dick move. Id rather not have friends than be around such a toxic person.
looks amazing dude honestly! Huge well done dude, its cool to see someone so young tackle something like this with the courage you had 👊
You were very brave to do this, and share it with the world! Boss move!
It is inspiring af! Thank you!
Man, I know that feeling when you turn on the clippers and realize what is about to happen. The first time was scary for me but immediately after I began getting compliments and I grew to enjoy the new look and grooming routine quite a bit. Good for you man!
kudos to you for taking back control and not letting your hairloss hinder your life or impact your confidence
Bro I relate soooo much to this guy!!! I’m 18 now and got telogen effluvium and that triggered my genetic hair loss to start so I’m balding early but man its insane how much value I gave to my hair. This experience humbled me bruh I’m not that mad anymore.. The amount of guys I see that give soooo much attention to their hair and how it’s looking every second of every day (I used to be that) when really it ain’t that deep it’s just dead protein on your head…
IT ALWAYS LOOK BETTER! Killing it king!
Looks great.These vids are so satisfying. I went through this nightmare 20 years ago,never looked back.
Looks great man. I did it myself a couple weeks ago. No regrets at all.
The number 1 looked great. The razor shave look is even better. Well done, JP :)
Hey JP I feel every little feeling that u had about your hair loss. I’m proud of you man. You look great!
you look great, man! And your confidence went up the roof!!!
Thank you for the sharing brother. Modeling jobs were cool back in the day. Now a days there are better life goals and business ventures,
Well done for taking a big step, looking good
Looks like two different people. Just in the way he was talking and carrying himself on camera, could feel the confidence at the end. Well don bro🙌🏼
I love this channel.... which is kind of crazy given the fact that I have literally ran from the idea of shaving my head. I have my own going bald story and I’ve been considering shaving my head and have finally made up my mind that I’m going to do it!
Thank you Baldcafe for always reminding men like us that we aren't alone.
Loving this kind of content. I started thinning and started rocking the bald look for several years.
way to go JP. Looks fantastic. You can still take up a modeling career with the new you!!
I love this channel. Just found it today. So nice to see these guys claim their positivity and confidence. And for real, every one of them looks great after the change. It's a very handsome and masculine look IMO.
It's consoling knowing there are others who are experiencing the same conditions as we are. Your bald head adds to your handsomeness. Looks great!
What a humble and enlightened young dude!!! You look amazing!! 💪
JP is so handsome and looks so good with the zero haircut! He looks so happy and holds himself better good luck with the future
very good interview, my compliments for the interviewing and the ideas of the new man
uhuuuuuu really nice that you went all the way bro! Congrats! Thx for sharing!
Looks way better!
Great decision!
Some of these guys hairlines are not even that bad to me, I must have been out of my mind not shaving my head sooner😂😂😂
Same 😂
Bruh, it's not always about the hairline. He clearly showed he was going bald from the backside of his head. There was a wide bald spot there.
So true! I got to the point at 41 it was so thin that when I did shave it off the new look didn’t even shock me 😂. I spent over twenty years years obsessing about my hair. At least these guys won’t have to waste those years doing the same.
Suits you pal! Good luck man and thanks for sharing
One of the best transformations, prominent eyebrows/eyes are now very visible, imo looks much better now than years ago even with full hair
I relate to this guy soo much his story and hair struggle is so similar to mine but after countless hair regrowth stuff I've finally accepted it.
Bro has a way with words. He will go far
you won't regret it!!!
he is very engaging in the way he talks. enjoyed watching
Stay strong bros !
His eyes look beautiful with no hair
Thank you this channel helped my fear of buzzing it off
Looks great mate and a confidence boost .
More Power to You.
I've found solace on this channel,thank you so much .I'm glad to be following every video I cone across on this channel it has helped me
You are very welcome
he looks so good ,so badass
Oh my ! This man is a total stud :)
The zero looks awesome!
I love this channel. They pretty much always look better afterward. He is more handsome without the curls if you ask me.
DO IT! I just turned 23 this month, and I've been shaving my head the last couple of months. Feels so good not having to worry about the wind and silly things like that.
Yeah but you have to worry about shaving it constantly otherwise you'll get that weird horseshoe look. Why not just hop on finasteride and save your hair?
@@jeniosk1097 Man, just read about all those side effects from finasteride/minoxidil therapy and you will see why it's better just to go bald.
@@michalstepien568 The side effects are less than 5%. From these 5%, 90% are mild side effects (slightly less semen content, slightly fewer erections etc). I've been on it for over a year and it's been worth it. I regularly get horny and have no problem getting an erection. It is indeed your choice though.
Do you also feel good to look like you sick and 20 years older?
Young girls left chat, 45+ ladies giving you chance.
@@NKN82 Lol, I have a girlfriend, and she's 21. I'm not worried about that at all.
Looks great man
This is such a great channel
Mad respect for you
You look good in a one or a zero. More important is how you feel and I’m glad you feel better about yourself and don’t feel like hiding.
Dude looks awesome. Great video!
Champion, you look awesome.
Going bold is soul freedom, just be sure to OWN IT, that's what I do when my hair doesn't turn out right!!!
Great change. Love your All Blacks shirt! (I am from NZ).
I never comment but I figured I'd throw my 2 cents in. I'm a 22 year old and I've dealt with hair loss since 19. This channel has gave me so much more hope and confidence in the process. I am afraid to shave my head but after seeing how great everyone looks afterwards I want to go through with it for myself. Who knows maybe I will join the channel and make a video for myself about it! Thanks baldcafe this is a great channel.
Just do it man!
@@guilhermegoncalves1161 Sometimes you just gotta say, what the fuck. Shaved my head at 18 years old and never looked back.
Go for it...I hope you'll make a video to help other guys your age...having no hair feels great!!
Looking good brother 👍🏴
Love the derdrie Barlow glasses in the thumbnail at the end
New Zealand represent!
Dude awesome look
0 buzz is the best if you've got a hairline left and no bald patches. Depending on how fast it goes, this will look good for quite a while. I too rocked this for a while, but I switched to razor shaving as it progressed further.
You are a solid guy.
Looks every bit as outstanding and attractive with a shaved head!
He looks great 🔥🔥
Looks way better then the hair...
This is the best one i have seen so far.
Looks great!
amazing video!! good job sir!
This channel so inspirational, I was never brave as the guys on your videos to cut all my hair off until I was a lot older, but seeing that the guys featured on this channel who are way more handsome than me just shave it all off makes me remember how stupid I was and how much of my life I have wasted worrying about my hair. hope all these guys are happier now which I'm sure they will be and also anyone who is balding and considering shaving their hair off to just do it like these guys.
So true! I was the same as you. I had twenty years of worry and every decision I made in someway my hair would become part of thought process. Like that story the guy said about sitting on the bus. Id purposefully not sit at the front.
Favorite of this video is him wearing an All blacks jersey! Kia Kaha my friend!
Looks good shaved because he still has the hairline shadow kind of framing his face, and the face aesthetics don't hurt.
I can totally relate, thanks for that video man!!
This guy looks great with both the buzz cut and fully shaved. Definitely helped by being a good looking dude in the first place and having a nice head shape too. Looks just as good as when he had his curly locks and could definitely still get modelling jobs for sure.
He looks like a model with that buzz cut 🔥🔥
You look so much better, take care,
I have the same hair type, and you look sick dude. definitely feel more confident buzzing it off! still havent seen myself in a zero but definitely will this summer🔥 Fire results bro bro
He looks soooo freaking good. I'm glad he let that hair go. it was coving up his handsome face
Top lad for wearing a New Zealand All Blacks top too 👌
This guy still has a lot of hair. I would probably wait a few more years before I started shaving it. Enjoy my hair while it last.
He wouldn’t be enjoying it tho. He’d be constantly worrying about it. Every day he’d have to go through a routine of covering up his balding. He’s done the right thing. I wish I’d had his balls. I went with your option instead and had twenty years of worry. Then last year in lockdown I shaved the fucker off. Now I don’t care. I just feel great like him.
He just needed to start finasteride . He had the rest of the genetics in place. He could have won in life
@@Slade69Then you're depending on a drug for the rest of your life, and run the risk of side effects aka your dick not working. No thanks.
Embrace it and take control brother 👍
You look amazing!!!!! Bald suits you! Rock it!
Honestly
U look awesome Bro..🔥
