    Want to share your story? Email Me at Baldcafe (at) outlook (dot) com When should you shave your head when you are going bald? If you have decided to move forward and rock a shaved head...When should you go for it!? Is it down to the appearance or is it different for every man? Can there be such a thing as he did it too late or too early or is it the right time when a man decides it is?
    When Eric got in touch to share his story I knew this would be a great opportunity to not only inspire but also open up a healthy discussion about this often asked and debated question.

    Everybody told me it was too soon. Its not about how it looks its about how it makes you feel. Why should we suffer the insecurity of hairloss for an even longer period of time? Shaving it off it is about dealing with your mental health and self confidence not actually about the hair itself its about taking control of what you can to manage your inner health. My fam couldnt understand why I shaved and I dont expect them to but I did it for me.

      Honestly, it looks amazing! I think hair can be beautiful, but at the same time, it isn't necessary to have hair to be beautiful. My brother suffered from alopecia since he was three years old, he has never had hair nor will ever have. Now he's over 30 and being bald didn't stop him from dating or feeling confident. He always jokes about how much money he must have saved from never buying shampoo or never going to the hairdresser. Lastly, I truly believe that beauty manifests in many forms, ways, colours, hair, no hair... :) but at the end feeling confortable and happy in your own skin is what really shines through.

    I shaved it off last week at 40, and I had less balding than him. The problem is people mention it, "your starting to go bald" etc. And it affects you, you worry if people can see something and it makes you depressed. So if your no longer enjoying your hair (Which is my main point), your hiding it under a hat, your not going out just incase someone sees or says something, then you have a problem and if the solution is shaving your head then all the power to you.

    If you have thinning at the crown it’s a whole different kind of struggle. you’re constantly paranoid about seeing the back of your head.

  • @heraclestebas4855

    Hey. The guy in the video checking in.
    I have read a few comments and I have found just what I was expecting to find and have a couple of things to say.
    But first, thank you to all the people saying nice things and understanding the move. And thanks to Harry for publishing such good content every week.
    So let's begin. I want to say something about the people saying that I still have a full head of hair. I will say that I agree with you guys. I still have a full head of hair. At least if you mean by "full" that I still have hair everywhere on my head (minus a couple of cms front recession). The problem is that the density in the mid section is about 60% lower than it used to be (i'd say that even more), and in the crown the % of hair that remains goes down even more. The density in the corners of my hairline is also very low compared to what it used to be. The only part that preserves good density is the front section (there I've lost less than half of it). Someone has pointed out that I could sport a good haircut if I wanted to. Well, I understand that someone watching this video may end up thinking that because the ponytail (when correctly tied) was very decieving. But that's the only haircut that did not show the scalp. If I let the hair go on it's own, I would look the quite similar to Rafa Nadal before his HT (check "rafa nadal balding" in google and you'll understand) in less that a couple of head moves. It would look even worse than Rafa's, because the thinning area was wider in my case. By seeing the pics of rafael nadal anyone can easily imagine how bad will most haircuts look. And indeed, they do. Anything besides letting the front grow long to cover everithing and mantaining the strands very close to the skull, just looks very thin. And even the ponytail was getting more and more difficult to style as the months passed by. COmpletely impossible to make it look good if the hair was wet (the combination of white scalp and dark hair strands made my head look like a zebra).
    So for those who think I still have a lot of hair, I'm sorry to tell you that you are, plain and simple, wrong.
    But it's not that bad to be wrong: my family were like you before I buzzed it and let it grow for a couple days, then they started to acknowledge that, in fact, it was very noticieable.
    To the one recomending a 2. I just have to say that that is probably one of the the worst lengths, because at that length the sides get thick enough to fully cover the scalp (getting really dark) and the upper part of the head shows a huge amount of scalp (even the strongest parts), which ends up with a transparent horseshoe. To give and example, I did not buzz my hair for 7 days a few weeks after the interview with Harry, and I recorded a video of myself goalkeeping and the horseshoe was very noticeable.
    Finally, I want to add a comment about those saying that drugs (and some supplements) could save my hair. There must be some truth about what you are saying, but, I don't want my brain chemistry altered which would put myself at risk (even if low) of persistent sexual disfunction and depression. I made intensive research about this about three or four years ago, and I don't think it's worth it. Some people do not recover even after stopping the meds. Google for example "5α-Reductase Inhibitors sides" and look for serious research. There is some fucked up shit going on.
    Anyway. Thanks to everyone. Even to those who are talking without having a clue.
    Have a nice day.

      Don’t be fooled by the information about Finasteride, it’s a very safe drug and even very effective taken in micro doses a few times a week and there’s literally hardly any chance of side effects. I recommend Kevin Mann’s videos. You hair looks good buzzed as there’s still hair and if you’d be able to maintain that hair I think it would be a good option but if not, it looks good anyway.

I love my look, how it makes me feel and I genuinely don't like my greasy gray hair. It's crazy to think how much I love my beard over my head hair.

    Been watching your videos a long time now, I first started balding at 17 and once I hit 21 I lost all my hair on top and my crown progressively. It’s such a hard thing to deal with as I had long hair most of mu childhood and loved it. I now shave with a one blade electric razor and keep it clean shaven. I try to embrace my boldness now and live with it and in the moment. It’s hard at sometimes because not everyone I know sees me bald as I do wear hats often because of the way they look on me and I like them.. soon enough I’ll stop wearing hats And try to fully embrace it.

    I think the prevailing idea is to keep your hair for as long as possible. Once you go bald, that's it, you wont have any more hair. So if you shave it as soon as you see an inkling of going bald when you could have had a few more years with it, you may look back in 30 years and wish you spent more time with you hair. Which I can kind of understand, but I don't have an issue with guys shaving it whenever they want.

    The right time is when it starts to affect your psyche, when you worry about your hair all day, take pictures, etc. For me, this was very early, I could have had a "full" head of hair and a haircut for 2 more years, but it was bothering me and I am glad I did it. For some, this moment comes way later. So the correct answer to this question is as soon as it starts to capture your thoughts and you can't stop worrying abou it, the time has come. Also, its about how YOU fell and not the other people. I got so much shit in the beginning because friends and faminly kept telling me I was worrying over nothing and imagining stuff. Now, over 3 years later, everybody can see that my hair is really thin on top, everyone said I was probably right. See it as an opportunity though, people will comment and try to test your confidence, that is your chance to show them you don't give a fuck what they think.

    His balding pattern is similar to mine. I shaved my head completely a few times, I have very mixed feelings about it, but I mostly dislike when it grows more than 3/4 mm, because then it just looks like a constant reminder of what's gone. Now I'm starting to think about shaving again, even though the medicine has helped.

    I’ve got a thick head of hair, but I’ve always liked the shaved look. My hair resolutely refuses to fall out, but over lockdown I got braver with my own self barbering. Now I’m rocking a 0.5 buzzcut, and I love it. I never enjoyed the grooming process of longer hair, and never really knew what to do with it, so even though there is this expectation to grow it back, I keep think, why would I? I’ve found with a more daring haircut, that I’m just being more daring generally with my style and really having fun with it. Anyway, point is, I don’t think you have to be balding at all to do it if that’s what you want.
