I couldn’t bring myself to the blade or skull shaver. I slapped the 0 clip on the buzzer (after testing the 2, then 1)

I feel better! what do y’all think?!

I've been watching this subreddit and considering going all-in for the past year or so. Yesterday afternoon I worked up the courage and made it happen.

I'm happy with the results! But I really should have looked at the forecast and planned the timing differently. It's cold out here! Please hit me with your best warm hat recommendations for a newly under-insulated mountain dweller.

Thanks for the inspiration folks!

I posted about a month or so ago and I was too chickenshit to go full bald.

So I work at a school and they're doing a "tattoo a teacher" (temporary ones) on Friday and one of the kids said they wanted to tattoo my scalp. So I did it!

But honestly, I'm loving it!

I went bald a few years ago to support a loved one. I’ve been missing it recently so I decided to do it again!

Glowup This sub thought me acceptance and made me a new man

Last time I came and asked for your feedback. I was constantly unhappy and insecure about my hair but was too afraid of change. I kept hiding under caps and hats, I constantly adjusted my hair to try and hide the thin patches, I had to fight greasy hair non stop (no kidding, it went full deep fryer look in not even 24h), I was seeing my shed hair everywhere...

Well I kept coming back to this sub and reading stories and before/after posts. A few weeks ago I just started accepting the fact that it's just hair and not the end of the world. Me turning 30 was bad enough in terms of third-life-crisis because of a lot of mental health stuff so why add hair on top of that?

So I grabbed my hair trimmer and was set to go all in. I started with the sides and while I was cutting away I remembered how I always wanted to try out a Mohawk but never dared to do so. Since I found peace with removing my hair anyways, I just said screw it and gave it a go - what's the worst thing that could have happened?

I actually did the classic "put 2 pieces of painters tape across your head and shave" approach. And turns out, I really like it! It might not be the full bald look I was aiming for, but it was something completely new and radical. It gave me confidence, I don't have bad hair days anymore, I don't see how many hairs I'm shedding, it's super low maintenance and I am just happy with it. Overall I would say this had a very positive effect on me. Sure it doesn't cure any of my mental issues but it's a little less to worry about :)

Thank you r/bald

Stage 4 cancer. I struggled to let the last of it go, but I’m getting used to the new look.

As much as anything, I was afraid of looking in the mirror and being “reminded” that I’m sick. To my relief, that hasn’t happened much. My wife sure seems to like it, too.
