Thank you so much for having me on. You continue to inspire people of all ages to beat the anxiety of balding. ❤
Well done, mate! Looking strong!
The pleasure and honor is my brother. Thank you for sharing your experience in the name of helping others. 🙏
You’re a handsome young dude!!! Hell, you get a little tan going you’ll look like Statham! 💪
This kid is so good looking! He doesn't need hair. He seriously looks better without hair. Seriously.
Love from India 🇮🇳 brother. Keep inspiring
He looks really healthy and young with a shaved head, it's brought out his best features. He looks amazing. All that worry for nothing! 👍
Love your compassion and willingness to help people that are struggling or just need some inspiration or motivation.
I stumbled across your channel about 4/5 years ago about a year or two after I went through the balding struggle, thankfully im fairly resilient and dealt with it myself, But it does make me happy knowing you and other people with platforms like yours are helping strangers that could be in a really negative and unhealthy place .
Youre a top guy 👍 wishing you all the positivity you deserve.
It’s nice to see and hear somebody who is tall and young and has nearly the same balding pattern as myself! When I was 22 I dyed my hair a lot and it was just kind of dead looking so I shaved it off as a fresh start and noticed when it came back there was this thinning pattern all over the top of my head and especially on the back of my head, creating this ring pattern and the further back I stood from the mirror the more pronounced it was. I did keeps and was so worried about losing my hair until about 3 months ago when I can across this channel and decided enough was enough, i wasn’t going to be a slave to losing my hair and shaved it all off. I’ve never looked back and I have so much more confidence about myself, so this is really a huge thank you for all that you do! I love hearing stories of people with similar concerns and paths! Keep rocking on lads!
You look so great with that supershort cut! Keep it that way!
brilliant analogy of the endless train at the end. Really likeable dude, and he looks good bald :)
I’ve been thinking for a long time about my hair lost, but I’m going to shave off my head today. No more excuses, this insecurity ends tonight . Thanks for the inspiration💛
being a 24 year old bald man, it sucks, you definetly get a few jokes here and there but the minute you get used to it and deal with the fact that its gone you become to love it, its easy, and most of the time you suit it a lot more then you ever did with hair
I'm 23 and balding. Absolutely devastated. My self image and confidence is completely gone. The prospect of dating is out the window. I don't think any girl at this age will like a bald dude. If I was older it'd be fine. I'm so depressed and kinda suicidal. I've shaved my head a few times and it made it way more obvious when the hair grows out a bit
@blamblastersidgeiii9360 my best advice to you, grow a class beard, get yourself to the gym, get wam and before you know it the bald look just works, I've had a lot of girls prefer it. Transplants and what not are not really worth it, a lifetime of being on meds with horrid side affects, work on yourself and before you know it you'll feel tip top 👌
@@blamblastersidgeiii9360get on finasteride. It's safe and effective. You don't have to go bald if you don't want to.
@@blamblastersidgeiii9360get yourself to turkey for a hair transplant £1750.... then take propecia everyday....worked for me got 80% of my hair back. 👍
I’d say the first thing is to sort out the depression and anxiety so you can feel better about yourself mentally. I do know what depression feels like and my own experience, though not hair related, was that it magnifies all the negative thoughts about oneself out of all normal proportion. Once you feel more positive about yourself then you can decide what to do about your hair. You could get a hair system if that’s what you want to do. Personally, I’d shave it off and keep that look for a week or two at least. It always takes a while for one to get used to a shaved head. Maybe grow a beard if you can; think about your fashion sense and maybe go to the gym to get fit. As for attracting women, if a girl won’t date you because you’re bald then that’s a strong indication of her shallowness as an individual. The girls who matter are those who couldn’t care less about your baldness. Many women are really attracted to bald guys.
I just shaved my head 3 days ago because of this channel. Thanks a lot mate, I feel very relieved. Greets from Leipzig ,Germany!
Congratulations brother. Great to hear you found your courage 🤝
way to go! This channel is very inspiring and if I should start going bald I will stick to it. And greetings to you too, we are from the same region! :)
Hi Harry,
Been watching you for a few years. I'm 26 and I'd love to be on your channel soon doing the same as all these guys and helping others like all your videos have done for me over the past few years.
Thanks,
Matt
It would be a pleasure to have you man. Drop me an email brother 👍
Its a good channel, feel for these guys tgat loose it so young..but inspiring to hear them.
This guy with or without the hair looks like a male model either way, this vid/channel has been very helpful lately. Hair's been thinning on the crown since 19, I'm 26 now and tried everything, been growing my hair for about 2 years now and the manbun looks really hides it but the maintenance is so tedious, I'm debating on just shaving it. Only thing is I'm very skinny and have a hard time putting/keeping on weight so I'm a bit anxious about how it'll look, but the older I get the less I care about what others think.
He's really cute. OMG I love it that he's bald. It's much better than with hair.
Am so sorry man stay strong am 32 years old and I have no problems with my hair but I feel for you
Looks much better with the close buzz. It sucks to go bald so young, but the great thing is that shaved heads are now mainstream. When I was young, one was looked on as a freak with a shaved head. Thankfully times have changed and anything goes - isn’t that great!
Indeed, I think it became pretty mainstream and common mostly due to the lockdown where people started experimenting and wanted to try out the bald look. I think it is great that people are more open minded about it these days. I am not balding (at least not yet) with a full head of hair and one morning I woke up with quite the bed hair. Instead of combing I decided to to try out something new and went for a full headshave. It looks good on me and I think I will keep it shaved for a while before growing it back at some point. My friends and people in my study group at university like it as well and tell me that I look great.
I can relate completely but luckily the treatments worked for me to regrow about 60% which was enough for me at close to 60 yrs old. Anyway - Your head looks quite good bald. LOOKS GOOD!!!!!!!!!
Exactly! People give up on their hair way too fast. The guy in the video could still save and regrow his hair.
Which treatment?
Im just now 20 but its thinning pretty fast, all the videos have made me feel better about it. Think ill get a buzzcut soon. I was stressed at first but at the end of the day it will all be alright.
Or you can save your hair while there's still time.
@@AlexLawSG im going to get a buzzcut and start microneedling
@@Higxster99 Get Minoxdil 5% + microneedling. That should stop your hairloss and get your hair back. If that doesn't work try finasteride if you want.
14:05 my guy finished with the Chinese byebye byebye 🤣🤣
Homeboy looks great with a shaved head.
only from front
I had exactly the same hair probelm as he did and at the same age. I shaved my head shortly after. Now im 35 and decided to grow it out a few months to see how it looks... it didnt get any worse but after shaving it i wasnt scared to to be bald. The thinning hair also doesnt bother me like it did when i was that young... maybe because its more normal for my older age hahahaah cheers to taking the plunge 😊😊
I think the very short hair suits him very well.
I have been on finasteride for over a year. No minoxidil. It halted the balding process. I have shoulder length hair, with noticeable balding. But not ready to cut it off. I'll stop when I turn 40 and shave it. Till then, no one cares about my bald spot on my crown and thinning top. No one mentions it unless I do. My female hairdresser, shes the only one who truly knows it how bad it is, said she liked that I won't cut it and and wear it 'psuedo' naturally. Just buzz when ready.
Sounds like you’ve accepted your balding situation. Major key 👍
Why do you think you’ll feel different suddenly at 40?
@ifyouarefeelingsinister maybe I won't feel different, but finasteride is a forever thing. Gotta rip the band aid off eventually, though.
Do you take any biotin supplements as well?
Get a transplant
I went bald at 25,i know how it feels,just shave it off what you have left,belive me,after a while you get used to it,at least you have your own teeth!😅
Im 22 and its hard man.
@@uan9166 It gets easier, I was your age when I realised I was thinning it was all that occupied my mind for 3-4 months, I'm 25 now and I very rarely think about it
@@MonkeBusiness69 Im already worrying about it for two years now maybe soon i will shave it.
@@uan9166 you got nothing to lose, you might as well
@@MonkeBusiness69I also thought my hair was thinning at 22. It wasn’t a surprise as most men of my family are balding more or less. But somehow it became denser again now that I am almost 24. Maybe just stress at that time. But I think at some point it will start going.
Looks great. You are lucky to have good features! Unlike some of us 😂
Looks a lot better cut short. Bit of gym work and he has nothing to worry about.
He’s lucky he has good features and shaped head looks better without hair in my opinion
Whoever told you to get a restart and shave was an op 😂
The guy looks better bold than with hair, lol
When the hair goes, you realise whats actually important, your skin and teeth 👌
Cheekbones are everything
I‘d love to shave my head, really. I trimmed it to 3mm once but because of my head shape it just looked weird.. it really is more difficult than one could think. Might sound quite funny but my head is shaped like a peanut shell 🥜 or a hotdog 🌭. My biggest insecurity is not my thinning hair, it‘s the shape of my head. I‘m trying to get used to it, somehow
Stick some extra bits on
💀
@@sleevelesswonder9009 i know bro, laugh if you want i won‘t be mad 🥲
André Agassi has the same shape of head and he looks good
Grow facial hair if you can and work out if you don’t and don’t worry bout gettin a lady that shit will happen naturally
Am I trippin’ or has this guy not levelled up with the shaved head and clean cut look? Looks more handsome.
You ain’t trippin my guy
Ye, you trippin' hard. Bald is a death sentence for man's attractiveness.
You remind me of Billy idol, quite impressive look
I don't want to be the against the main idea here but, at 21 I got 70% of my hair back from norwood 3 with vertex to norwood 1 fully covered up. I just use minoxidil, microneedling, biotin, saw palmetto, ketokonazole and massages consistently. If you want your hair, there's no half-assing it, either you go bald or go full on obsession and benefit from the reward. My friends envy my full head now. Edit: this is just 2 months of minoxidil, so I am a hyper-responder, I might be back to when I was a kid in a year.
Do u have a social media I can message u?
Can you name the biotin supplements you are taking 🙏
get on a better dht blocker or you will lose it again
true i am facing a second shedding phase, although it is normal and should just keep consistency, its starting to get better again

@@user-zk9jv1tk6hdutasteride is basically a superweapon when it comes to stopping male pattern baldness
Ever since i shaved my head people have been treating me with more respect and women seem to follow me around because of my beard, being had made my confidence rise whereas non of this happens when i have my hair, going bald permanently.
It is an interesting experience. I am not balding (at least not yet but maybe in near future), woke up one morning and after seeing myself in the mirror I decided to change my appearance. Went from a full head of hair to skin bald and people started reacting differently. When going out for groceries I could feel that tried to make space if approaching with the cart and girls at university became more talkative. I don't regret it at all, turned from a 20+ average guy into a manly guy and look older, I even grew a beard over the last few weeks. Shaving my head now every morning and will keep it like that for a while. Maybe I'll grow my hair back at some point but for now I enjoy the bald look.
@@LakituKoopa I lost my hairline at 27 ): rather than have a comb over I'll keep it shaved . I just love how my confidence in myself is improving.
@@sethdinges7067 It really helps with confidence, it feels easier to talk to people or interact with them.
Sorry about your hairline, that is never easy. Before I cut my hair off, I noticed that my crown looks a little different. Not sure if it was the light, the way I brushed it or if there really is some thinning going on. Might be the first signs of a bald patch. If it should be one that will develop over the next two years I guess I won't go for a comb over as well. However, that is not the end of the world :)
@@LakituKoopa my rule is if I ever lost hair on my crown I would get laser surgery to remove the hair follicles, I was blessed with Italian and German genetics so I'm better off keeping a beard (:
@@sethdinges7067 Interesting idea with the laser surgery. That could be a good way if it really looks bad. Yeah, a beard can make quite the difference, especially if having such genes. Made myself that experience, usually I keep a clean face but after going for the bald look and growing the beard I noticed that it grows pretty fast. Skipped shaving for two weeks and started to look like someone else ;D
Everytime i watch these videos it makes me really annoyed I had a hair transplant on my hairline , this was a few years ago when I wasn’t told you need to still take medication to keep it, I thought once it’s transplanted it wouldn’t fall out. Now the rest of my hair is going and I’m left. With a thicker hairline and thin at the back and it’s su noticeable when I shave it short , it’s just not natural and also scarred. It’s like I’m going to have to go back and have another transplant for the crown , even though I know it won’t last in the long run, but at least my whole head will look evenly bald
whoever did the transplant and didn't tell you about being on meds is a legit criminal
@@Out427 hair of Istanbul , pretty big establishment too, they did a good job but obviously with no meds and rest of my hair going it won’t last.
@@Ryan____Zit’s just money for them. They did it and forgot about you already. Only business.
Gotta keep taking dutasteride 0.5mg everyday

Not really... 2023 haha... Like being fat and saying "It is what it is"
The ads are so effective and this is a great demonstration. That’s why I put them in the vid. The whole “going bald is a choice” is such utter rubbish it shouldn’t even be allowed. Such is the power of human nature/ marketing
you don't have to shave it all off you can just keep it short
I wish I had his head shape
maybe do a video on rosemary water and rosemary oil
Not to be a downer but if it was really any good. effective then I don't think transplants etc would be a thing no?
Actually he doesn't only look better than with thinning hair but also better than with head full of hair. What kind of hairstyle was that anyway!
If you are concern about hair loss and affects you , start treatment finasteride + monoxidil. DHT is the main problem of hair loss , finasteride will block it , and minoxidil will make you hair regrowth. you need to use both forever twice a day. You need pacience only after 5 months you will start to see result. It works !
Did you watch the video bro?
Don't use Hims. Save 90%, & just go to any GP, request a prescription for finasteride.
Mad how such companies have been able to repackage it into something that seems “special”
I’ve wasted so much money paying companies for a dubious product. Thanks for stating what now seems the obvious. I’m 35 but very young looking, not quite ready to give up the ghost.😅
@@Baldcafe they are using people's weak spots to milk them. There was a so called doctor in my city. He made a name among people and was selling really expensive herbal treatments to cancer patients telling them it is a special formula. Luckily police caught him in the end. This is what those companies are doing too
I am 19 and I am also losing my hair 🙂I don't know what to do
Take finasteride and minoxidil
Looks fine. U could have giant scar like i do..just shave it and grt a tan
Nobody understands how much losing your hair impacts your mental health. Its debilitating. Over the years you try literally everything! Then eventually you give up and just accept it. Sad but true.
This guy looks 1billion times better without his hair!
does he have smp? still looks like alot of hair.
No SMP
it is not too late, you can still save your hair! get 5mg propecia tablets prescribed, they are literally so cheap. it is like 3 dollars per 30 pills. just cut them in 4 and take everyday, and forget about it. however, ofc if you are at peace with going bald and you dont want to treat it, i respect it.
They ain't that cheap bro
Bro that drug ruined my life so bad 😭 my dick hasn’t worked since I took it
hi sir ive contacted with you previously....ihve trimmed my hair and feeling confident...shall i mail you my cureent pic and also i would like to feature on your channel
Sure thing man. Drop me another DM on the gram and say “hey! We just chatted on YT!”
how old he was when balding started?
19
Not the first and not the last- I first shaved my head when I moved from England to Texas El Paso back in 2019. I was sporting the man bun hiding a huge bald patch- in 40 degree heat. Got called a pussy by my brother as he’d already accepted fate and pulled the shaver out ran it straight down the middle. I gained confidence from this moment. I was no longer hiding and avoiding situations.
Does anyone have any advice for dating as a young bald man, I feel like I’m at a constant disadvantage and have to lower my standards
Read 2 books. Models by Mark Manson and How to be a 3% man Coach Corey Wayne. Read them for real

But like the dude's not bald yet.
If its actually male pattern baldness then doing Finestaride right now would definitely give him the hair density back, it just takes like 2 years. You can always mix it with dutasteride aswell for good measure so I dont see the point of not doing anything. Atleast Fin, its like 17$/year if you quarter it.
Like its so easy to just take one pill a day.
The point is like he said. He doesn’t want to take meds just for hair and for life. It’s easy to become dependent on them for confidence etc.
He probably says that just because he doesnt realize that taking finnasteride for life is completely fine, its like brushing your teeth every night except its way faster. Its an equivalent of saying I dont want to brush my teeth for life.
Finnestaride is literally a perfect medication, it does not interact with any other substances, it's effective, has extremely low side effect profile and it's the cheapest medication out there (if you quarter it). There is controversy only because many people are balding, which leaves room for many people to spread misinformation about the drug, finestaride is proven to be safe.
Its funny to me that people are scared about TEMPORARY erectile dysfunction from finnasteride, when the majority of non hairloss medicatons have erectile dysfunction as a side effect aswell, IN ADDITION to like 25 other side effects that are worse. For example anti depressants. Or my mood stablizer medication had over 50 side effects, including a life-threathing rash, I got none of those obviously. Or for example my old grandmother takes 2 medicatons everyday, without them she could potentionally end up in the hospital. Those drugs also have many side effects but obviously she never had any of them (like most people), and it allows her to function fine.
Swallowing a tiny pill everynight in the exchange of keeping your hair seems to me like the obvious choice everyone should make. Unless they like being bald.
It sucks when people realize this at the point of no return, when theyve already lost their hair.
