I finally took the plunge and shaved my head with a three guard at some Puerto Rican barbershop here in northern nj where I live.

It looks and feels so much better and all I’ve been getting are compliments, which I’ll take when I can get 😁😂

My hair, while quite long/shoulder length, was unfortunately starting to thin a bit. I just turned 37 so I guess I had a good run! After a certain point I really stopped taking care of it. And it showed.

There are some pics floating around here that show the longhair.

I was a bit nervous with my live-in gf because she always said she loves guys with a full head of hair and could never date a bald guy. Well I’m not bald per se, and it actually looks fuller and healthier short, but here we are!

She actually took it very well and was supportive. She thinks it kinda looks badass compared to my long hair lol 😂 . I used to look like a grungy little dweeb.

Now I don’t have to wear a hat or beanie everywhere I go.

Anyone here recently make a big chop? Thinking about doing so? Here is an honest and chill place to talk about it!
 
I started going bald at 14, Im almost 50 now, that shit never grew back...

Yea bro good move. I always tell people who are insecure about balding 'look at Fedor'. He's one of the best fighters ever and rocked being bald.

It doesn't mean shit. I'm sure you have a nicely shaped head and you will rock it SherFedor.
 
Enojy the perks of looking after it even less and it doesnt show, barely having to dry after a shower or not waking up with bedhead.

Shaving it down to a #2 has been my go to for a long time.

I'm 44 and have hair just past my shoulders. But difference is I actually take care of my hair. I have the ends trimmed regularly and use high dollar shampoo and conditioner. I have to because it's thick and curly.

Not to mention I have zero thinning as baldness doesn't run on my mother or father's side.

Look at this arrogant asshole flexing on these baldies...





Yeah, my hair is also at shoulder length too. High five!

I'm in the same position you were in before you cut it

I've worn it long and in pigtails for years now but I'm aware it no longer looks right. I've had my head shaved many times and know I look good that way but I just can't believe it's over and when I cut it it likely will never be long again.

Like a marker of the passage of time. We're not even close to being young any more.

I felt that in my soul!

I went through the same exact feelings. But I knew that keeping it long just looked bad. I always used to say that i would never cling on to hair when i would see others holding fast against the inevitable.

And I also considered the fact that I will never have long hair again. It sucks having that choice taken away from you.

But at the end of the day, I now do look and feel a lot better I think.

No one wants to look like Roger when he was a porn truck driver on American Dad (see attachment) 😂
