I started balding at 18 and it was gone by 25. The onset and full loss was devastating to me. I tried all kinds of products and wore an expensive hairpiece for 2 years. One day I woke up and realized that I had been more self-conscious with the hairpiece than I had been losing my hair. I took it off--yes, I slept in it I was so insecure--I shaved my head and I never looked back. It felt so good physically, but more so, emotionally. I truly felt liberated. Everyone loved it, but no one more than me. Guys, don't wait.

I lost my hair at 21. Immediately shaved it all when I realized it was overtly happening. NO ONE CARED. I will say this, we are our own worst critics and it’s only an issue to others when you DONT shave an obviously receding or thinning hairline.

Man, my hairline is already receding at age of 17. Mother Nature sure slapped me hard.

This a true story. Was balding since 22... Had a visible bald spot at the back and receding hairline. Tried to hold on (without medication) using combovers until 26 when finally I had enough of it. Shaved the whole damn thing off and grew a HUGE beard. Few years later I break up with my long term girlfriend (unrelated to the baldness) and now for the first time I'm tackling the dating world as a bald dude. Meet a drop dead gorgeous co worker my age and get her to go on a date with me. We're married now. Baldness didn't hold me back at all. I trim the beard down to about 12/13mm and shave my head every 2 days. I workout hard 4x a week. I'm a pale, white dude but I don't let having no hair bother me. Confidence is attractive to women not insecurity. Stay mentally strong and you'll all be fine.

It's easy to cope when you start going bald at like 30-40. Here I am not even 20 yet with a receding hairline :(

Edit 9/10/22
I turned 20 like 7 months ago and since then I’ve been taking finasteride to conserve the hair that I do have. I feel as though it’s been working. For the folks out there suffering from hair loss, you’re not alone. The replies to this comment proves that. Stay strong! 💪 👨‍🦲

If I could grow a beard like him I'd accept it immediately.

Steve has a nice headshape for being bald some of use have a bad shape for being baled

[Rocky]

Honestly, I’ve felt the feelings about balding, since I’ve been losing hair since 17 (almost 21 now) and I think to myself, why? Why is this giving me such anxiety and self esteem issues? It’s just hair? So what if I have a bad head shape for being bald? So what if people make fun of me? The people that truly care about me won’t care, and the others don’t mean a thing to me. I’d rather go bald than spend thousands of dollars and hours fighting nature. Society can kiss my foot, I’ll do what I want

[anisarif]

I m just 21 and now male pattern boldness has been started 🙂 and i m in my student life and there is no one in my class even in my friends circle who have issues like this 🙂

[MingerHarrier]

I don't know but most black guys don't look bad when they go bald, I can't say the same thing for us white guys (I know it depends on the headsape tho).

[jayaseto]

Whatchu talking about Steve I’m a millennial & started loosing my hair like 4 years ago. It sucks especially when you in your early 20s. Early 30s not as scary

[AxelAlexK]

I started going bald in my early twenties. Funny, I would probably Buzz my hair really short now even if I had hair. I love not ever having to go to the barber anymore. Going bald is something you think is the worst thing ever but when it happens to you you are upset for a short time and then you get over it and move on with your life and realize it was never a big deal. It's just hair. The main thing that bothers me is the Practical downsides such as my head being subject to getting cold or getting sunburn. But as far as cosmetically I actually quite like being bald now.

The audacity of Steve talking about don't fight going bald. When he wore that hair helmet all through out the 90s.

[JETBLASTIX]

I'll fight it... If I lose, I lose.. But I'm gonna fight

[kingkbtv]

Im 22 years old i got all my hair nothing is reciding or anything but if i start seeing bald spots in my hair im cutting my hair off and im rocking out with a bald head its nothing wrong with going bald. I will not be paying no money for hair transplant im gonna be working out in the gym everyday shout out to Saitama and Master and Krillin

"We about to talk about going bald." Audience: no."

It's literally the only topic people don't tend to talk about in this virtual age. Everyone strays away from it or doesn't want to hear about your struggle because of your hair. You can talk about teansgenders, skin color, war, politics, etc, ANYTHING. but when it comes to going bald, which is a real struggle for men, whether it be because of how other people will feel or if it is because of how they feel and they don't care how other people see them, people will run away. Especially women. It's tragic. IMO I mean you can hear the women laughing at all the wrong beats in this video. Sucks

[-wu]

I just shave my hair off. This is why I'm here. Oh and I'm 22 years old 😂 My head shape is my only downside but hey it is what it is ....

[rexiiforsure]

I’m retired and have been bald since 25. It actually started in college . I certainly wish it didn’t happen but of course I learned, (took awhile) what’s going on inside your head is what’s important. Anyway many feel that bald is beautiful

[faisalmanj]

I fought so hard to stop getting bald- I lost the battle lol :p Actually now I love being bald- It feels COMPLETE :)

[east]

Started balding at age 14 when puberty started. It really massacred my self-esteem.
