Shaving head early in hair loss // save some pride, easier minox application

[BigThinker]

Preface:
Been thinking about this lately.

I'm basically over this hair loss shit. My hair is f**ked. Yeah, I have a few new hairs in my hairline, but I shed more in a day than I can see new hairs in my entire hairline.

The only time I feel like shit about it anymore is when I sit there and look at it. Thankfully, I've been able to get that more under control thanks largely to the gym (rather look at my swell).

On to the topic though:
I don't care for my head shape, but there's not shit I can do about it.

What about just buzzing my head with a 1 guard right now and starting minox. I figure, if I have to buzz my head with a 1-guard, I at least want some stubble up top (not horsehoe). I will continue to take finasteride as well.

The way I see it. If I just shave my head at NW3, I look like a dude with more pride than a guy at, say, NW6 who finally shaves his head after everybody he knows has been noticing his hairloss for years.

Further, minox has got to be infinitely easier to apply on a buzzed head. This way, I can maintain the stubble up top. Just enough to not make me look like a cue-ball.

I'm getting sick of combing my hair with a fine tooth comb to find myself getting next to zero resistance from my hair across my vertex.

It's summer, and I could play the "I want my head cooled off for summer" bullshit card in conjunction with the "yeah, I'm bald, too much testosterone, har har har har" bullshit card.

Everyday that passes, it seems more reasonable and I am one step closer to pulling the trigger on the whole deal. Who knows, maybe at one year finasteride and minox will give me thick stubble, and I will have adjusted to my head shape.

And finally, I would be even more motivated to hit the gym (which I'm starting two-a-days as of tomorrow morning 6 AM).

I'm already over chasing around superficial 21 year old chicks. The last three girls I've went on dates with are in their mid to late 20's and more focused on their career than clubbing -- one of which is a co-worker whose last boyfriend was a bald dude (though he pulled it off pretty damn well). I'm thinking the shaving the head bit will have a significantly smaller impact on my ability to get at chicks than it would even 1 year ago.


Where you come in!

Give me some feedback, bros. I probably won't do it for another ~month or so; it's going to take some hyping-up to do.

I just want to say **** it.

Thoughts?
