The Shaved Head

[Fixed by 35]

Finally, Vin Diesel and Jason Statham are handsome because they are bald, not in spite of it.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Not f**king Vin Diesel again. How many more times? The guy is a twat!

That's the problem with baldness. The so called role models are all crap looking tossers.

People keep bringing up these bald 'role models' and I just read through them thinking 'twat, twat, twat.'

There's no such thing as a bald role model, only bald men too oblivious to how ridiculous they look.

Yeah but, everyone thinks they're right, what makes you special? You might not think Vin Diesel is a handsome guy. Other people clearly disagree.

In all seriousness - 'fixed by 35' - have you ever considered a psychological assesment?

Are you for real? How many times are you going to post your negative crap on the same thread? You've had ample opportunity to share your opinion on this topic and now you are just acting like a kid in junior high. You have almost 300 posts here and I am willing to bet that most of them are a complete waste of yours and everyone elses time and energy. Why don't you start a new website called baldguysareugly.com and you can be the big star. I suggest a new user name for you- Miserable Forever. You are never going to be "Fixed" until you change that nasty attitude of yours.

Shaved heads are ugly? Well I guess im ugly >.< . Ya I'll admit I looked better with hair no doubt, but you make it sound that people with shaved heads are the ugliest things out there.... sorry id rather have a shaved head than half my face blown off? But if that guy with the face blown off still has hair he's the one thats guna get the chick, right?

I weighed out my options before I shaved my head. I could spend tons of money on pills, plugs, and rugs or I could shave my head. Ok while the side effects of the pills may be blown way out of proportion, do you want to take the risk of not being able to perform anymore just for a couple hairs?

Doesn't even spencer say if you can shave your head and move on with your life that you should do it? So than why do you come on the site and go "Spencers completely ****in wrong." I know you didn't say that, but you implied it.

Come on dude what is your grudge against people with hair anyways? I'm envious of a full head of hair just like any bald man is, but did those people with hair when they were an embryo decide to have you go bald one day? Serisouly they did nothing to you, guy cuda wanted directions to go to his daughters wedding, but nope thanks to an asshole like you he missed it... and why, simply becuz he had ****in hair.

Now kid grow the **** up becuz i thought this site was spose to help people not bring them down.

Wow, you really do look awful, like a back alley mugger or something. Most people can just about pull off a professional image despite the baldness, but you really got the worst card in the deck didn't you?

I can honestly say if you turned up for an interview at my offices, I'd be inclined to call security. Needless to say I wouldn't employ you. I'd be worried about how my clients might react. Is there really no way you can soften your brutal image?

Just for the record, having my face blown off isn't any higher in my list of priorities than baldness!

I don't agree with everything Spencer says. That's not to say he is wrong, but that there is a difference of opinion. What he has done well is this website; I do disagree with the view you mention above because I think he underestimates the perception of others.

Going to a wedding in jeans and an anorak? I doubt it. Besides, the expectation of some people, that I can just be stopped in the street by a stranger and suddenly be willing to help, is ridiculous. It's the sort of overconfidence I only ever get from people with hair and Germans. I have better things to do than directing pompous twats with massive quiffs to the nearest hotel and I couldn't give a damn if he did have a wedding to go to.

Now kid grow the **** up becuz i thought this site was spose to help people not bring them down.

Spencer's job is to help people through confidence building and the like. Mine is to be brutally honest and articulate the realities bald people face. I do receive notes of support on this website for doing so. If nothing else, using lines I teach other sufferers can be extremely useful in obtaining free cosmetic surgery from the NHS.

I have had the chance to observe a couple of bald guys over the passed couple of weeks. The first was a guy that appeared to be in his early 30's. He had a shaved head, was fit and tan, not completely jacked, but was a decent looking guy even with a shaved head. He was sitting with the hottest girl in the bar by far. Seeing this really gave me a lot of hope and a competely different perspective. The bald guys I've seen strike out, really were not great looking in the first place. I'm not saying that the stereotype doesn't exist, but fix what you can and I do believe there is definitely hope.

I see this quite a bit. It's obvious who look good bald and who don't, good skin and symmetry/ headshape and build are the biggest factors in my opinion, generally giving off a healthy/ vibrant tone is what you want, which is why I have concerns about using minoxidil because although I tolerate it well it makes my face look less healthy.

Keepthehair, I'm sorry that most people on the balding websites bring up the same bald role models e.g. Jason Statham and Vin Diesel but I actually personally know NW5 head shavers that I think look great, and in terms of other 'known' bald guys I can think of plenty others bar the same old names that pop up on hair loss forums. Do you hate balding shaved heads only? or do you think a number 1-2 on a good head of hair is a bad thing also?

I think it's about time Fixedby35 gets banned. Kenny has the nads to post his photo and Fixed belittles him. Typical scumbag move from a scumbag. For the record, it's tough to tell from the lighting but his head looks fine to me. Not gettiing employed??? LOL once again, get some mental help.

Fixed's mind is already made up and there's no point of listening to him rant about how much lower he is in social society due to his baldness. Everyone has given him sound advice over and over again and he just rejects it and spews the same BS.

Of all the sexy bald celebs out there, I think Vin Diesel is the studliest of them all and looks fabulous.

The darkness of the image is what makes Kenny look a little thuggish, not his bald head or his face. He actually pulls off the look very well if you ask me. As for Fixedby35, I don't think he should be banned, I think he needs our help desperately! It’s people like him that need the most sympathy because he is so hopeless. I feel sorry for him and hope he finds some peace in his life.

What a thread...

I have no idea why that guy just posted his picture?


It looks just about how you would expect a shaved head to look. To be honest I just don't like it at all. I don't like the feeling attached to it. Fixed By 35 said you look like a back alley mugger...lol... Perhaps it is not that bad but it does not look "warm" as a head full of hair does. It looks cold and unappealing.

I completely dislike the shaved look... I will never do it.





As for this forum I am just gonna go live my life and come here every now and then...I am done with all this garbage. Sure baldness sucks and shaved head sucks...but what are we going to do? Moan about it for the rest of our lives? Not me. I am just going to do what I can until HSC comes out or whatever.

Keep the hair - i think you have made a wise decision in getting on with your life. There is more to life than hair and visiting the forums less will make you obsess about it less.
I think kenny has done well in posting his picture, giving a two fingered salute to 'fixed by 35' in the process : ) I too think kenny pulls of the look - good head shape, strong features and the attitude to go with it. The picture quality is lacking a bit but you get the general idea.
I would rather have people thinking im a mans man and even a little thugish at times........than a vain, miserable nancy boy clinging onto a few wispy hairs.
I have no problem with people who want a hair transplant - whatever makes people happy is good by me. Some hair transplants can look good and change peoples lifes for the better. But given the choice between a shaved head and a severly thining head of hair....... it has to be the shaved head every time.

I just thought the guy deserved brutal honesty; he was, after all, being brutally honest with me. As I've said on previous threads, lying to people to big them up isn't going to help in the long term either.

I think the first thing any man who shaves their head must do is soften their image. The shaved head was the choice of thugs and homosexuals before it became popular for the balding and the stereotypes persist (I should point out that whilst being gay is not in itself a bad thing, being mistaken for someone who is gay is clearly not the objective of a straight man).

Kenny has done no such thing. Whilst some men naturally have the features to look human without hair (for example 90% of the celebrities cited on these pages) most do not. Kenny, for example, looks like a convict. If he came to my place of business for an interview, I'd probably try to get rid of him as soon as possible.

I have a similar problem. I have very hard features. Losing my hair is ruining my image, but shaving my head will turn me into a thug. I don't want to become one of those people that others cross the street to avoid, but if I shave my head that is what will happen.

There are ways to soften the image. Dressing well, glasses to frame the face and not shaving all the way to zero. But they are in themselves limited as an option.

Roll on Histogen!

Fixed by 35 - Disregarding the homosexual and thug remarks..... your last post wasnt too bad! I think if you can positvely engage in the debate, then people would not be as hostile towards you.
You make a point about softening the image of a shaven headed man. I dont always think this is necessary but i take your point. I think getting a tan, getting teeth fixed etc can aid this process.
You say that kenny looks thuggish.... but you are seeing one snapshot of his life. In person he may smile a lot, laugh a lot.....when he meets people he may shake their hand and put them at ease. So the difference in seeing one pic or spending 30 seconds with the man may be enormous.
