    hey i need some help people im 21 and going bald not much hair left now and i am getting very depressed about it. i have never been a very confident person and im really shy but going bald has killed any confidance i had. its getting so bad that i have covered my mirror with posters just so i wont see my reflection because when i do i feel like crying tbh and any time someone says it to me i feel like crap. What makes it worse is that people i know just laugh at me about it which doesnt help also i was out in a nightclub last week and at the bar girls and guys i didnt know just started to laugh and point which made me go home and id only been out for an hour at that time. I know some people will just say shave it off its only hair but not for me as it just wont suit me and i will be laughed at more for it , its getting to the stage im wearing a hat all the times even in my house with nobody around. Please help me if you can thanks before hand

    I know you don't want to hear this, but you really do need to just shave if off, it's only going to get worse and to be honest a neat shave looks alot better than half a head of hair, whether you think it suits you or not.

    I have a friend who had great hair up until about a year ago, it started thinning this year so he just took the plunge and shaved it - an he still looks great. It's a confidence thing, and you'll be alot more confident as the cute guy with the shaved head than the paranoid insecure guy who's going bald.

    I can't imagine how awful it feels as you've no control over it happening, but this really is the only way to go now. You'll feel so much better for it.
    And remember, it's all a confidence thing, believe in yourself and your looks and you're half way there.

    a clean shave in your 20s looks a Yotta times better than a Horse-Shoe, my friend.

    My room mate was bald by the time we met him. Only 26. He was great craic. For completely seperate reasons I too went clean shave for the summer of my freshman year. Jaegermeister takes most of the blame, but I badly needed to get rid of that mop top. But I didnt wear a hat or anything, I liked the look.
