I Started Balding In School at 16

Welcome to The Baldcafe Podcast.

In this Short Episode we welcome Pieter.

Pieter noticed that he was going bald in school. His friends would make some light hearted jokes and when dating girls would ask..."What's up with the hair, are you going bald?"

He was able to shrug it off but those early years were painful.

Pieter talks on how he really felt like thinly one going through it and how he would have to have a strategy with hats and weather reports in order to feel more comfortable about the hair situation.

Eventually enough was enough and at 21 Pieter decided to shave off the fading hair that was causing him pain. This is Pieter Story of how he dealt with Male Pattern Baldness. I hope you enjoy and/or find it helpful for dealing with your own journey.

The biggest thank you to Pieter for coming on and sharing 🤝

You look great bro. Bald is simple and attractive. Trying to hold onto the last of your hair is unnecessarily stressful and I’m glad you chose to be healthier

[xaneys]

this video gives me so much confidence just wanted to say im tankful for it

[davidribeiro]

You look waaaay better! Congrats, champ!

[shaunbang]

It’s crazy how shaving your head makes someone go from super geeky nerdy type to kinda scary and tough lol

[venetiia]

love his confidence!
attractiveness: 📈

Definitely relate to looking at the weather to see how careful I needed to be. If the wind was over 5 mph I'd freak out inside. I'd carry a comb around with me. Buzzed it super short when I was 19 (24 now) and while it was rough at first I've come to not mind the way I look at all. I can cut my own hair and don't have to worry about the wind again.

Accepting reality gives you a piece of mind

Bro looks badass as bald and that one chill gym bro

[SkyeTrinity]

Aww... i know hair is also important to men as much as it is to women. But can we normalize bald head (also not just in women). he looks amazing!❤️ My husband is having the same problem, but hes been holding on to his thin hair for so long ..he is 31 now and he doesnt want to shave his head or be bald. It runs in their family, although i always tell him that he is always going to look dashing and handsome no matter what. I do understand that he is afraid, so last three months ago we both shaved our heads. Now mine is a pixie cut, but he said hes gonna keep the clean shave forever. He said he has never felt more confident in his life. And me i also learned a lot by shaving my head for the first time. So to all men suffering from hair loss, I want to tell you that you are amazing.👏👏👏

Shaved mine last Sunday! I'm still getting use to it and everyday I gain more and more confidence. At first it was hard to look people in the eye but I'm starting to embrace it.

Thankfully, there was a shining side to it

[alhaeri]

gentlemen, I did it and I have never been happier, thank you for this channel it was a real support for this hard transition. if you are struggling just do it it is worth it, i instantly felt a thousand times happier it is such a relief. and remember when you choose to shave "what is dead may never die"

Currently in the process of my family genes catching up with me and losing my hair too. I’ve had long hair since I was a freshmen in high school and started balding from the crown when I was 21. 23 now and I’ve shortened my hair and I’m just about to the point of wanting to just shave my head like this cause I’m tired of stressin over my bald spot showin. My man here did it, looks good, and seems happy with it too. Might be the move.

[PatrickTheFlirt]

You look way better bald no cap smooth 💯🔥

[darthsinniious]

Not me, I started at 15. With the swirly thing at the back of my head turning into a bald spot. Then at 16, my hairline started receding. Now I'm 17 turning 18 next month worrying about my natural enemy, the wind, revealing my receding hairline.

EDIT: I'm bald now. I shaved my head the day after graduation. It's been 1 month since. Looks like I'm going 2 college bald.

[deepthividhyuth]

Bro you look handsome than before. Great job❤

[prestonlewallen]

Same bro, I had a receding hairline pretty bad already around 14 . Started shaving my head my senior year of high school . Never looked back

[Lazekial]

[Obiamajoyisrmd]

As an advocate of keeping hair, he's one of the few who actually look better bald
