In 13th of July 2023 I just FELT something wasn't right. I was Norwood 0 that was looking like Norwood 1,5 because of my head shape which was all right I always knew that. I was always concerned about the way I look. And just at that point I fully started to love myself. I started enjoying the way I was looking which surprised me. And a bit after... I started losing my hair. Like someone is just laughing, making fun of me. I just found piece and mostly enjoyed life but all of a sudden my hair started going. Im trying to be hopeful because there is my temples going with thinning in front and im saving money for transplant. If shit goes further my life is pretty much fucked. Never was in the relationship btw. For the last 4 months since 01.01.2024 life is just froze even though I can cover damaged area. Saying it's brutal - not saying anything.
Especially if their under 6ft tall. A 6ft tall guy balding can still look good, but it's over for a bald guy under 5'11" in the vast majority of cases.
It is cruel that we still don't have enough treatments to PREVENT balding. Propecia will slow it down, and rogaine will help hair grow faster. But it isn't enough. I know guys who take 2.5mg of Avodart, which crushes your dht levels by about 98%. They are still balding. It's the perfect example of how men don't age like fine wine because women view balding/bald as subhuman.
Couldn't agree with you more Neil! I've been on Propecia since 2014 and it definitely has slowed it down but hasn't stopped it. The hair transplant industry and the hair system industry are billion dollar industries and I don't know if there is enough financial incentive for a cure. Men definitely don't age like fine wine. That's just another bluepill saying that men like to tell themselves.
@@rtSfe67 I was a Norwood 4 by the time I was 23 years old so I went to a doctor in Florida for both hair transplant surgeries. The first one was to build a new hairline in the receded zones and then the second one was for more density.
Being bald is the worst for real. Haven’t gotten laid in years since shaving my head and it’s obvious women don’t find me as attractive as when I had hair. Started shaving it when I was 23. Anyone who says being bald is more attractive is just lying to themselves to feel better 😂
Damn man, sorry to hear but remember that You have options. You have hair transplants and also hair systems. When I shaved my head, I noticed a significant decrease in interest from women.
It’s a fact that men and women treat you worse when you are bald. It’s not about insecurity. I wouldn’t care as much about being bald but I know that I won’t get as many dates.
I'm late 20s and got tired of wearing my hair down to hide my temples. I got a transplant in TJ 3 weeks ago and it brought me back to a somewhat norwood 1. Really as a short 5'8 guy, having hair is essential to continue to look young. That and being lean + diet + skincare.
That's awesome man! Tijuana? Interesting place to go. I'm sure you were able to save some money on the overall cost by going there. I did both of my transplants here in the U.S. Being lean by eating a healthy diet and having hair make a massive difference.
going bald is NOT AN OPTION for me and I will NEVER accept it, without my hair I am nothing, my hair might be the only thing that could save me from being a complete incel, if I start balding then I'm wearing a wig or getting an hair transplant no matter how much it costs because going bald is NOT AN OPTION
@@Madmongul Yeah, head shape is very important when determining if you would look good bald. Facia features are probably the second most important. Thanks for watching Maddix!
I'm 16 rn and thinning and receeding a lot. been balding since 15 and I'd say i'm about norwood 2 glad to see some other people went through this at young age
My fellow bald brother, you may lack hair but never let people steal your self-respect. You can't make people act in ways you'd like but accepting the reality of being bald is psychologically freeing and opens you up to noticing the many ways that people can be superficial.
I'm not a transplant candidate since my balding is so rapid chances are even fin won't work. I'm also 20. My looksmaxxing plan is SMP, midface and lower third surgeries to get that more aggressive look. Can't grow a beard so that may be my only chance of escaping this hell. May be coping though, hair helps you ALOT.
I went to high school with some pretty alpha or almost-alpha males. When I checked their updates on MySpace and Facebook, I noticed that a few of them were going bald or went bald completely. Even though I was never in the alpha male group in high school, I still felt bad for those guys I went to school with. I was a nerd/geek in high school, and I still am ... and I still have a full head of hair ... which grows so fast that I need to get a haircut on a monthly basis. I hope science finds a cure for those bald guys.
Yeah, I hear you. Going bald is brutal physically and mentally. The hardest part is losing your identity especially if you had good hair in the past. This was my case and it just really got to me after awhile. I wouldn't wish baldness on anyone even if they aren't a good person. Thanks for watching!
@@ascended266 I had one of the best hair in class, and went NW7 by 22. I had to shave it off, and my headshape has a lot of plagiocephaly. I'm 40 now, and still consider it as one of the most devastating losses in my life. I wish I would have found out about fin earller, but the internet was just developing. I'm happy it worked for you, hopefully they will find out the cure one day.
There already is a decent cure. A good hairpiece. Lots of guys do it and whats wrong with that? Nothing. Women can wear high heels, wear padded/pushup bras, wear makeup, wear fake nails, fake eyelashes, manipulate their eyebrows, put in hair extensions, dye their hair, get their hair styled, and then there is the surgery they do on the breasts, nose, face and lips. A hair piece can change your life for the better
I've long since mourned the loss of my hair which started when I was 16 or 17. Joined the army at 19 and had to shave my head for basic training and haven't had hair since. Honestly I never considered going on pills or getting a hair transplant or toupee since I'm too physically active and like swimming and saunas. I wear headwear to protect against the sun and cold when needed but indoors usually no hats. But it definitely helps to be in shape and have some facial hair. All things being equal it's better to have hair, but things are never equal which is why there are many men with hair who still don't have success with women.
Interesting perspective! I'm glad you came to terms with your hair loss, that's awesome. For me, hair loss deeply affected me and I decided to go down the hair transplant route which luckily has worked out for me. Thanks for watching!
@@ascended266 I don't know how transplants work exactly but I don't even think I had enough hair on the back of my head to donate lol. It would have filled in like half my hairline.
I'm sorry hoss. Being bald is one of my worst fears, so much so I have nightmares where I go bald. I am slightly balding finally now that I'm 28, however I have very long voluminous hair and get compliments at how healthy it looks. I've always had good genetics for great hair and I do take good care of myself, my scalp included. My gf even told me that she would never date a bald man, and that she preffered men with long hair. I felt a sting for my less fortunate brothers when I was told that.
I hated going bald in my late teens and through my twenties. I used lotions that cost a fortune and didn’t work and by the time I was thirty one, my hair had gone on top. It was easier then because I didn’t have anything to lose anymore and I just got on with my life.
I'm glad you were able to move on with your life after dealing with going bald. That's awesome! I try to keep a healthy perspective and not worry too much about my hair anymore. When I was in my 20's, it definitely impacted me a lot. As I get older, I don't focus on it as much as I did back then.
lol, my friend went bald on purpose idk why, he has a full head of hair, no receding hairline or anything, i asked him how getting girls was while he was bald, he told me that the girls he got previously would still talk to him but he couldn't find any new girls that were interested in him. he grew his full hair back now.
Went bald when I was in my late teens. Just shaved my head and didn't worry about. I saw some guy standing at a bus stop one day and he had a comb over. The wind picked up and all his hair stood up on one side. There's nothing more ridiculous than trying to cover it up. Be a real man. Stop worrying about something so insignificant 'cos there's better things to do.
To each their own. I'm glad you decided to shave it and not worry about it. Hair loss effects everyone in different ways. I think for me personally having had really good hair growing up I lost a lot of identity when I started really balding. I was fine with balding up until about Norwood 3 and then that's when I started to really dislike it. I lived about a year as a fully shaven head bald guy and it didn't suit my head shape and overall facial features.
man i swear after taking creatine for two months, two summers ago when i started gymminh, my hairs started shedding like crazy really. Stopped after those two months and it stopped
Creatine definitely sped up the process of balding for me. Genetically, it runs in my family but taking massive amounts of it sped me up from a Norwood 2 to a Norwood 4 in the span of like a year and a half lol lets hope for better hair days going forward bro!
As a 30+ bald guy taking first year courses at uni, this makes me chuckle. If ya can't afford hair transplant there is only one solution. Accept it and get on with it.
Yeah, to each their own. I went down the HT route and it definitely had a positive impact overall. If you feel comfortable shaving it, go for it and more power to you! I tried that for a year and hair just suits me way better.
@@ascended266 Ngl, I probably would have got hair transplants or something if could afford it. I just find myself in a position where I can either become salty and raise my fists at the gods or just forget about it and get to work. I find so much of the former in the blackpill community, people descend into the "why have the gods forsaken me!" mentality, when there is actually a fair amount of good living to be had even if you aren't good looking or have a good head of hair. But I get your point still.
Absolutely correct video! Even though your family-friends say you look good, its not really true, hair just gives your face some kind of shape. Last summer I buzzed my hair down, and that was definetely enough to notice that I get much fewer woman contact. If you dont have hair in your teens, early twenties, that just basically a sign on you that you have bad genetics, and on the inside, no woman wants to be with a guy with bad genes. I'm 18 and I never really had luscious hair, I have a naturally high hairline and relatives that went bald really early, this video just confirmed my fears, but thats the hard truth. The part with eye contact is so truee! But hey man at least youre a 6'2 biggie, I'm 5'11 here, height compensate it definitely, even as a bald guy if youre bigger and taller than other guys, that can give you big confidence boost.
Thanks man! I try my best to be a pleasant person. I think having been on both sides, it allows me to see things through a comedic lense. Yeah, I noticed that once I looksmaxxed to the high tier normie range I started getting better treatment.
Males in my family have full head of hair till their death. My dad has full head of hair as 60 and nor wood 0, grandfather has full head of hair in his 80s. If I get bald for some reason I won't be able to cope for real.
Yeah, that would be brutal. The males on both my moms side and dads side all have the baldness gene so I knew eventually that it would happen. I just decided to take the route of restoring my hair and that's always an option if you start losing. IF you start to notice your hair thinning, being proactive in preventing further loss early is important.
same genetics, yet here I am started shedding and slightly receding at 20. I'm 22 now and luckily after a year on finasteride shedding is gone and hairline thickened up significantly. still anxious asf and dumbfounded about how unlucky I am
I was getting some hair lost at my midle 40s. I was overweighted and has a very stressfull job. I quit. Start to get in shape and now I have a full teenager dark hair at 51yo. Maybe avoid stress can help someone.
I'm glad you were able to reverse your hair loss Elvis! Stress from your career can definitely have an impact on losing hair. I try to compartmentalize and shut off work when I'm done for the day and that seems to really help.
Oh hey! A new Blackpill creator! Nice! I'm so glad about this video, there is just not enough emphasis in BP community on the horrors of balding. They recognize it for sure, but since it affects such a small percentage of the Sub-population it doesn't get featured in many videos. Kudos to you. NW-5 here
Thanks man! I appreciate it. Yeah, hair loss definitely affected me a lot especially in the past. That's why I wanted to make a video on it. Hair transplants can be life changing if done by the right surgeon and if you're a good candidate. I will be making future videos about hair transplants so keep an eye out for them.
Thanks man! Yeah, this video was very tough in a way. I definitely really struggled with losing my hair especially when I was younger. I felt that I was really going to lose my looks and identity. Thanks for watching!
@@ascended266 i had body image issues with skin isues in university it made me feel like a leper, i can relate to being insecure in every class i went into, so many girls everywhere felt like i was being judged everyday. its hard out here for a young guy. thanks for your bravery theres a lot of younger guys who are gonna resonate with this
Same here i was totally unaware of the world in my mid 20s . Had no idea balding was a bad thing, had no clue what jokes were going on. Realy amazing if only we hopped on finasteride… this is why the blackpill is important . It gives awareness and action
Yeah, I wished I would have known about fin back in 2011 when I first started balding. You nailed it on the head with awareness and action. By bringing awareness to different blackpill topics, people can take action on improving their looks and their overall life. Thanks for watching Shiro!
@@Shiro642 On my first transplant, I got 2,000 FUT grafts. I then got 2,000 FUE grafts. All of the grafts were in the frontal zone with more focus on the hairline. I am a Norwood 1.
@@Shiro642 Nice! I would evaluate what your goals are. If you want a straighter hairline, then that could work. If you want more density, you might want to have them fill in the gaps between the grafts.
Am in Norwood 1 am 20 yo i started noticing hair recession at 19 yo but hopefully i catch it soon with finesteride hair is life bros, don't be a sheep try your best to live your desired life
It's like fkng knife in stomach. I recall when one woman said with sadistic pleasure "you're balding, oh my god!". Then my mother said "dear, you're balding", and then most people started noticing with fear or aversion. And then people just distanced from me
I can relate! I was 21 and my friend jokingly asked me "Dude, are you balding?" Lol it hit me like a stack of bricks. I ignored it for a year and was in denial.
What helped me is head micropigmentation. At least I could get something like "normal" look, so I look like a crazy shaved, rather than bald. Not an ideal solution, but better than NW7. Did it 10 years ago, and don't regret a single day. I also lasered off the rest of horseshoe, which took me like a year (8 sessions if I remember correctly), was crazy painful, as the amount and density of hair was brutal there. I still perceive myself as bald, whereas even my woman still asks to grow it out, and I jokingly say then we have to have backdoors intercourse, and she just said "ok, change the condom". I freaked out. I could move to a normal lifestyle after that, though I have an ugly headshape (flat back). What I mean I don't have depressions any longer about it, and even don't ponder about it much. It's like you're dead and born again, but still feel half-dead, haha. Because that hairy man is dead
I'm glad you were able to find a solution in SMP Mike! Some people seem to have good results depending on where you go. I've seen good and bad outcomes. Headshape definitely makes a major difference in the decision to do something about hair loss. Thanks for watching!

if you just started balding here are following tips: grow your hair out, keep it longer at least 2-3 inches and always cut it on your own or go to a good barber who knows how to cut only a little with the scissors dont panic, no matter what kind of hairloss you have you can always get a hairtransplant stop fapping, seriously most young people literally lose their hair because they fap all their zinc away - if you really cant help it eat come in your hand and eat it
I grew my hair out at first when I started balding. I didn't start Fin until I was a Norwood 4, never really looked into it. There wasn't a lot of information on youtube back then. Getting a hair transplant is always an option. Although for people who are Norwood 5 and beyond, the result may not be as good as there is more surface area to cover. Thanks for watching!
Yeah, it's a big decision on whether you want to fix it. You have a lot of options. Most people start with meds and then look into either hair transplants or hair systems. I wish there were better advancements for hair but at the moment there really aren't too many. Thanks for watching!
A hair transplant is when they take hair from the back of your head and place it into your balding areas(hairline, crown, etc.) Both of mine turned out to be pretty good.
You must not be very muscular. I’m 6 foot 275 and don’t look it. I play basketball, I’m in good enough shape to run up and down the court. I can bench 300, leg press 1200.
I’ve got to be honest I started balding at 24 and started shaving my head and women loved it. I got way more engagement than I was already getting which was pretty good. Just be confident.
Thanks for your perspective! I'm glad you had good results shaving your head. Back when I was bald, I was very overweight. I'm sure I would have better results had I been in shape. I don't have particularly strong facial features to really pull off the bald look. For me personally, I look better with hair and I decided to go down the transplant route. To each, their own. Thanks for watching!
Only a very small percentage of men have all the requisite characteristics (tall height, defined/muscular body, strong jawline, alpha personality) to pull off the bald look successfully. For most men, going bald is a huge negative life-changing event that will lower their SMV to almost zero, and have devastating consequences on their ability to have a normal social and romantic life.
@@ascended266 I am going to be bald by 25 if it continues the way it has unfortunately. Thanks for giving your experience with this, I wanted to know what to expect. Maybe I should hurry and go to college lol
I have a full head of hair, in my early 20's clocked me at 30 or maybe even mid 30's, I just have an old, worn looking face, when I went to a highschool at 22 for a tradecourse I got greeted all the time then I heard two girls whispering "Is he a teacher? No wait now that I look closer he looks younger" so at 22 I looked old enough to be a teacher which is scary to me.
Ah well at least you have a full head of hair! That's definitely a big advantage to say the least. Having an old face can be rough especially when you are in your early 20's. I had a double combination of looking bald and older when I couldn't grow facial hair. Skin care can help a bit with looking younger but some people age quicker with wrinkles and eye bags much sooner.
That's awesome man! It seems like you can pull off the bald look more than most people can. Most people need hair to look good as they lack the facial aesthetics to pull off being bald.
@@ascended266 there is one more Dynamic about attraction you need to understand there could be a guy which most people would say is not attractive that much but based off facial Symmetry and attractive female could find that same male very attractive might not happen all the time but it can't happen
Very true man It definitely can happen. When I was recovering from my first hair transplant and lost a little bit of weight, there was a girl that was out of my league that still liked me.
Yeah, looking back it probably would have been different if I wasn't 300 pounds. If I would have been in good shape, I'm sure I would have had a slightly better experience.
I wouldn’t wish the scourge of baldness on my worst enemy. Absolutely brutal.
Same here man! It's brutal.
Yupp the worst 😔
I had the opposite. I always still do have a full head of thick hair. The problem is that I'm on the low average, high sub5 looks, so.....

To each their own. I'm glad you decided to shave it and not worry about it. Hair loss effects everyone in different ways. I think for me personally having had really good hair growing up I lost a lot of identity when I started really balding. I was fine with balding up until about Norwood 3 and then that's when I started to really dislike it. I lived about a year as a fully shaven head bald guy and it didn't suit my head shape and overall facial features.
Confidence won't get you girls bro
man i swear after taking creatine for two months, two summers ago when i started gymminh, my hairs started shedding like crazy really. Stopped after those two months and it stopped
Creatine definitely sped up the process of balding for me. Genetically, it runs in my family but taking massive amounts of it sped me up from a Norwood 2 to a Norwood 4 in the span of like a year and a half lol lets hope for better hair days going forward bro!
@@ascended266 The only hope for hairs to get better as time passes is to get a wig or smth like that lmao. Digging your channel so far keep it up!
@@supertuna123 Thanks man! I appreciate it.
As a 30+ bald guy taking first year courses at uni, this makes me chuckle. If ya can't afford hair transplant there is only one solution. Accept it and get on with it.
Yeah, to each their own. I went down the HT route and it definitely had a positive impact overall. If you feel comfortable shaving it, go for it and more power to you! I tried that for a year and hair just suits me way better.
@@ascended266 Ngl, I probably would have got hair transplants or something if could afford it. I just find myself in a position where I can either become salty and raise my fists at the gods or just forget about it and get to work.
I find so much of the former in the blackpill community, people descend into the "why have the gods forsaken me!" mentality, when there is actually a fair amount of good living to be had even if you aren't good looking or have a good head of hair. But I get your point still.
Holy shit!!! You really did become a chad now. I heard that Tinder match at 6:36😂. Good for you man, glad you ascended, you're a good dude.
Hahaha I'm dying! I just went back and watched and yep that happened lol thanks for watching and the support!
Just buy hamza course bro! for $5k ONLY
Haha SIGN ME UP!
Absolutely correct video! Even though your family-friends say you look good, its not really true, hair just gives your face some kind of shape.
Last summer I buzzed my hair down, and that was definetely enough to notice that I get much fewer woman contact. If you dont have hair in your teens, early twenties, that just basically a sign on you that you have bad genetics, and on the inside, no woman wants to be with a guy with bad genes. I'm 18 and I never really had luscious hair, I have a naturally high hairline and relatives that went bald really early, this video just confirmed my fears, but thats the hard truth. The part with eye contact is so truee! But hey man at least youre a 6'2 biggie, I'm 5'11 here, height compensate it definitely, even as a bald guy if youre bigger and taller than other guys, that can give you big confidence boost.
You sound like such a pleasant guy.
Women are brutal bro, even for normies and slightly above average men.
Thanks man! I try my best to be a pleasant person. I think having been on both sides, it allows me to see things through a comedic lense. Yeah, I noticed that once I looksmaxxed to the high tier normie range I started getting better treatment.
Some guys can totally get away with the bald look while others just look old and unattractive.
Very true man! I was one of the people who looked old and unattractive. It doesn't help when you have fair skin as well.
Males in my family have full head of hair till their death. My dad has full head of hair as 60 and nor wood 0, grandfather has full head of hair in his 80s. If I get bald for some reason I won't be able to cope for real.
Yeah, that would be brutal. The males on both my moms side and dads side all have the baldness gene so I knew eventually that it would happen. I just decided to take the route of restoring my hair and that's always an option if you start losing. IF you start to notice your hair thinning, being proactive in preventing further loss early is important.
same genetics, yet here I am started shedding and slightly receding at 20. I'm 22 now and luckily after a year on finasteride shedding is gone and hairline thickened up significantly. still anxious asf and dumbfounded about how unlucky I am
I was getting some hair lost at my midle 40s. I was overweighted and has a very stressfull job. I quit. Start to get in shape and now I have a full teenager dark hair at 51yo. Maybe avoid stress can help someone.
I'm glad you were able to reverse your hair loss Elvis! Stress from your career can definitely have an impact on losing hair. I try to compartmentalize and shut off work when I'm done for the day and that seems to really help.
Oh hey! A new Blackpill creator! Nice!
I'm so glad about this video, there is just not enough emphasis in BP community on the horrors of balding. They recognize it for sure, but since it affects such a small percentage of the Sub-population it doesn't get featured in many videos.
Kudos to you.
NW-5 here
Thanks man! I appreciate it. Yeah, hair loss definitely affected me a lot especially in the past. That's why I wanted to make a video on it. Hair transplants can be life changing if done by the right surgeon and if you're a good candidate. I will be making future videos about hair transplants so keep an eye out for them.
Hairloss can be stopped by taking a pill. It's so simple
*slowed down
@@mikeser3484Fin works indefinitely as long as it's taken, especially if you start soon
Thanks for your vulnerability man that must have sucked
Thanks man! Yeah, this video was very tough in a way. I definitely really struggled with losing my hair especially when I was younger. I felt that I was really going to lose my looks and identity. Thanks for watching!
@@ascended266 i had body image issues with skin isues in university it made me feel like a leper, i can relate to being insecure in every class i went into, so many girls everywhere felt like i was being judged everyday. its hard out here for a young guy. thanks for your bravery theres a lot of younger guys who are gonna resonate with this
Same here i was totally unaware of the world in my mid 20s . Had no idea balding was a bad thing, had no clue what jokes were going on. Realy amazing if only we hopped on finasteride… this is why the blackpill is important . It gives awareness and action
Yeah, I wished I would have known about fin back in 2011 when I first started balding. You nailed it on the head with awareness and action. By bringing awareness to different blackpill topics, people can take action on improving their looks and their overall life. Thanks for watching Shiro!
@@ascended266
How many grafts did you get in both transplants? Are you back to a NW0?
@@Shiro642 On my first transplant, I got 2,000 FUT grafts. I then got 2,000 FUE grafts. All of the grafts were in the frontal zone with more focus on the hairline. I am a Norwood 1.
@@ascended266 must feel nice, i got 1800 in the front to go from nw4 to nw2. Not sure if i should get a second one to get to a nw1
@@Shiro642 Nice! I would evaluate what your goals are. If you want a straighter hairline, then that could work. If you want more density, you might want to have them fill in the gaps between the grafts.
Balding at any age is brutal.
Am in Norwood 1 am 20 yo i started noticing hair recession at 19 yo but hopefully i catch it soon with finesteride hair is life bros, don't be a sheep try your best to live your desired life
Yeah, hair is definitely life without a doubt! Lol Finasteride definitely helped me slow down and stop my hair loss over the years.
@@ascended266 did fin worked well for you ? I taked my first fin 1 week ago I cut a 5mg pill into 4 and I take one a day
What about the side effects of fin? It seems like lots of guys have problems.
This is so fucked up wth hope u keep progressing in your weight loss journey !!!
Thanks man! Its been an arduous journey thus far and I've been at a pretty good weight for a good while now.
my hair saves my head shape ngl but im 14 and 6'2 im still growing so it doesnt really matter if i ever become bald later
6'2 and growing, bald thuggmaxx immediately
I was balding at 19. It was brutal. People laughed at me
It's like fkng knife in stomach. I recall when one woman said with sadistic pleasure "you're balding, oh my god!". Then my mother said "dear, you're balding", and then most people started noticing with fear or aversion. And then people just distanced from me
I can relate! I was 21 and my friend jokingly asked me "Dude, are you balding?" Lol it hit me like a stack of bricks. I ignored it for a year and was in denial.
Treated u like you have a contagious disease.
What helped me is head micropigmentation. At least I could get something like "normal" look, so I look like a crazy shaved, rather than bald. Not an ideal solution, but better than NW7. Did it 10 years ago, and don't regret a single day. I also lasered off the rest of horseshoe, which took me like a year (8 sessions if I remember correctly), was crazy painful, as the amount and density of hair was brutal there.
I still perceive myself as bald, whereas even my woman still asks to grow it out, and I jokingly say then we have to have backdoors intercourse, and she just said "ok, change the condom". I freaked out.
I could move to a normal lifestyle after that, though I have an ugly headshape (flat back). What I mean I don't have depressions any longer about it, and even don't ponder about it much.
It's like you're dead and born again, but still feel half-dead, haha. Because that hairy man is dead
I'm glad you were able to find a solution in SMP Mike! Some people seem to have good results depending on where you go. I've seen good and bad outcomes. Headshape definitely makes a major difference in the decision to do something about hair loss. Thanks for watching!
Thank god balding doesn't run in my family. Still a stinkie inkie though
Consider yourself lucky my friend! It's definitely tough to go through. Thanks for watching!
@@ascended266 Thanks for producing the content u do. There are hardly any good blackpill channels like urs since ITV left, BP memes turned bluepill and Tails became pretty shit. Channels like urs rly help me and im sure a lot of other ppl too.

Thank you for sharing your story.
When did you notice the lookspill first time?
Thanks John! I feel like I always knew deep down about the looks pill but it didn't really hit me until I started balding and gaining a lot of weight.
Try balding in high school
I went bald at 16
That's brutal man! I thought I started losing my hair early but damn that's rough.
if you just started balding here are following tips:
grow your hair out, keep it longer at least 2-3 inches and always cut it on your own or go to a good barber who knows how to cut only a little with the scissors
dont panic, no matter what kind of hairloss you have you can always get a hairtransplant
stop fapping, seriously most young people literally lose their hair because they fap all their zinc away - if you really cant help it eat come in your hand and eat it
I grew my hair out at first when I started balding. I didn't start Fin until I was a Norwood 4, never really looked into it. There wasn't a lot of information on youtube back then. Getting a hair transplant is always an option. Although for people who are Norwood 5 and beyond, the result may not be as good as there is more surface area to cover. Thanks for watching!
Are you mentally ill?
98% of hairloss is from androgenic alopecia and that can be treated by finasteride or dutasteride
Try balding at middle school!
Brooootal
BRUTAL!
I'm shaving my head for maybe three years I have not decided if I want to try to fix the top or not hair started thinning at 2 6
Yeah, it's a big decision on whether you want to fix it. You have a lot of options. Most people start with meds and then look into either hair transplants or hair systems. I wish there were better advancements for hair but at the moment there really aren't too many. Thanks for watching!
What exactly is a hair transplant and how good is yours
A hair transplant is when they take hair from the back of your head and place it into your balding areas(hairline, crown, etc.) Both of mine turned out to be pretty good.
@@ascended266 so do you ever get a haircut or no ?
You must not be very muscular. I’m 6 foot 275 and don’t look it. I play basketball, I’m in good enough shape to run up and down the court. I can bench 300, leg press 1200.
Back then, I definitely wasn't. I was very much overweight and it was mostly fat. I didn't start building muscle until losing the weight.
I’ve got to be honest I started balding at 24 and started shaving my head and women loved it. I got way more engagement than I was already getting which was pretty good. Just be confident.
Fr? Must have a well shaped head
how tall are you?
@@alexbohinskyi987 6’3” but Chadlite is 6’2” you’d expect similar results
Thanks for your perspective! I'm glad you had good results shaving your head. Back when I was bald, I was very overweight. I'm sure I would have better results had I been in shape. I don't have particularly strong facial features to really pull off the bald look. For me personally, I look better with hair and I decided to go down the transplant route. To each, their own. Thanks for watching!
Only a very small percentage of men have all the requisite characteristics (tall height, defined/muscular body, strong jawline, alpha personality) to pull off the bald look successfully. For most men, going bald is a huge negative life-changing event that will lower their SMV to almost zero, and have devastating consequences on their ability to have a normal social and romantic life.
The blackpill exists!
I stop lifting and it falls slower I lift more and it falls faster I was like wtf
Haha yeah I got really into lifting and taking creatine back in 2011-2012 and especially the creatine sped up the balding for me! Thanks for watching!
@@ascended266 I am going to be bald by 25 if it continues the way it has unfortunately. Thanks for giving your experience with this, I wanted to know what to expect. Maybe I should hurry and go to college lol
I have a full head of hair, in my early 20's clocked me at 30 or maybe even mid 30's, I just have an old, worn looking face, when I went to a highschool at 22 for a tradecourse I got greeted all the time then I heard two girls whispering "Is he a teacher? No wait now that I look closer he looks younger" so at 22 I looked old enough to be a teacher which is scary to me.
Ah well at least you have a full head of hair! That's definitely a big advantage to say the least. Having an old face can be rough especially when you are in your early 20's. I had a double combination of looking bald and older when I couldn't grow facial hair. Skin care can help a bit with looking younger but some people age quicker with wrinkles and eye bags much sooner.
How did you get your hair back
I got 2 hair transplants in 2014 and 2017.
@@ascended266 how much did you fap or pmo ejaculate etc
No more
I'm a bald dude shaved head and I had a smoking-hot twenty-one-year-old all over me just recently at the bar I'm 36
That's awesome man! It seems like you can pull off the bald look more than most people can. Most people need hair to look good as they lack the facial aesthetics to pull off being bald.
@@ascended266 there is one more Dynamic about attraction you need to understand there could be a guy which most people would say is not attractive that much but based off facial Symmetry and attractive female could find that same male very attractive might not happen all the time but it can't happen

Very true man It definitely can happen. When I was recovering from my first hair transplant and lost a little bit of weight, there was a girl that was out of my league that still liked me.
@Tony Diesel how tall are you? I ask because men who are 6 ft tall tend to mitigate the impact of hair loss somewhat.
Did you get hair transplant?
Yes, he got two. He says it from time to time on the channel

Even at 6'2 it affected you that much?! Fuck...
Yeah, looking back it probably would have been different if I wasn't 300 pounds. If I would have been in good shape, I'm sure I would have had a slightly better experience.
