OVERCOMING BALDING INSECURITY *A Motivational Story*

[@Baldcafe]

This is pretty wild. Hamid and I had never met before this chat on zoom but we both went to the same university in China at the same time and.... we both wen't bald there. What a moment to hear Hamid's story. Hope you guys enjoy 🤝

[@hamidhislam1334]

Thanks for sharing the story. Hope we'll meet in Chongqing Again for the Podcast. 😊

[@stard02]

Being an Indian guy who has experienced major hair loss in mid 20s, I can relate so much to his experience and story. I find it way more difficult to rock a bald look whenever I am in India but it somehow feels more acceptable in Germany (where I currently study). Also, big thanks to you Harry for creating this platform that helps bald men to overcome their insecurities and be more accepting of the look. I hope to find courage to be able to share my own experience someday. 🙌🏼

[@Baldcafe]

I welcome that day 🙏

[@siddharthraychaudhuri7250]

Absolutely bro. Especially for religious reasons people look at you awkwardly if you try to adopt the bald look.

[@Osk94]

Buzzed my hair off yesterday to 1mm well before it got too bad, your channel helped me make the leap! Thanks man

[@ivansokil1122]

Crazy! I also went to the same university in China at the same time. However, I only started really noticing my balding last year, at 28. What I find even more incredible is that, despite attending the same Chinese language school and going through the same language level (zhongji B1), I don't remember seeing you there or meeting you. Chongqing, Chongqing, I always knew there was something fishy about that place! Everyone, be warned. Going to Chongqing and attending classes at Chongqing University may induce balding!

He speaks well and it's another good, wholesome video. I can relate to the cap. When the airport made me take it off I felt that this has become a problem and I don't wanna hide no more so started shaving my head after that.

[@Rblock777]

I think every guy whos going bald has this exact same experience and started to feel free after going bald, so the sooner you go bald the faster you will accept it and feel in harmony with yourself. I started to lose my hair somewhere around the age of 23 and started to shave my head only at the age of 28 Now im 30, proudly bald and started to grow out my beard and people say its a good look for me and they cant even imagine me with hair

[@upthereds4939]

Man ive just noticed how many subscribers you have now !! Amazing . Im here since you had a couple of hundred subs 🙏 well done !!

[@DozerDaddy]

I am 29 years old. I also have recently started shaving my head as well. I always thought man I was gonna look awful. But it was literally all just in my head. Pun intended. I actually look a lot better now than I have. I got the inspiration and the courage from watching your videos. Cheers. And thank you for all you do.

[@mjk6949]

How old did you started balding

[@DozerDaddy]

@@mjk6949 I believe I was 16. Whenever I would comb my hair back. I noticed a receding hairline starting on the right side on the top of my head.

[@JeanMelim]

I was getting less and less hair. 8 years ago I started watching videos of implants and the various techniques, but in addition to being expensive, their maintenance requires medication and not all interventions were well done. 4 years ago I decided to start shaving everything. At this point I feel good about my decision. I don't see white hair because there is no hair... Thanks for the channel and support to bald people around the world Greetings from Portugal

[@amaterasu9079]

Thanks for helping uss❤️

[@arslanakhtar8862]

Your story is very inspiring..I am also a Pakistani guy living in Malaysia and I am also balding...I did have the thought of hair transplant but my inner soul was not accepting it bcoz its fake and unhealthy..now I hear your story I am empowered to embrace my looks whatever it maybe..with confidence and happiness...I will just show the world the way I am...thanks brother..

[@jacopobalia31]

Welcome me to the family!🤣 20 y.o. struggling with balding since at least 4 years, insecurity destroyed me... It all started when a friend of mine made a comment on the transparency of my head. Some time passed trying to forget it but a little later (something like 1 year) a dumb guy who didn't know how to "offend" me said something like changing barber... That ringed in my head.... I tried to keep them long and with a comb always in my pocket to adjust the comb over at shop windows or car's mirrors. Then everytime i wanted to cut them and did it the regret was instant... And let's not talk about beach baths or rainy-windy days... These were an agony even with mid-long hair, a gust of wind and I felt like a naked worm walking on the streets! But this is all over! Today i grabbed my clippers at 3am and started blasting my head! Started from the middle so that I couldn't repent, and here I am with a head (not) full of hair!! I was pretty used at the sight of me buzzed, but the problem lied in the acceptance of having that naked stripe in the middle of my head. Now I just don't care! Fuck minoxidyl and finasteride, won't take that crap anymore! Relying on external things to cope with problems is just a temporary solution, instead acceptance is pretty much definitive! I know hair makes you feel cool n shit (always been a hair guy) and it's a way of expressing ourselves, but it's not the only way to do it! You can always grow a thick ass beard or wear a wig!!(jk🤣🤣) Btw for every teen struggling with hairloss, you got this, you should be proud to struggle in this situation and try to win over it, coz that's no easy task! But when you do, you know for sure that you climbed more stairs than almost everyone in your same environment! and if u like being the eccentric guy (as myself) being the one who hasn't them brings that unique flavour I do love to have!!! Be strong and be bald guys!

Hey I don’t have hair loss but I have premature graying since I was 18 I been growing my sides to hide it should I just cut it short it’s been a big insecurity of mine.

[@cocktailzombie]

Really enjoyed listening to this guy.

[@emanbayat]

Nice episode. It seems eastern communities have their own challenges viewing shaving hair as a normal choice. As an Iranian, I am still facing stereotypical reactions from people around my area, after 7 months of rocking the bald look and enjoying it. People question me "Why did you shave your head? I can see your hairline the crown area is fine!" Well, it's my damn hair, and I wasn't satisfied with that thinning soft hair, I chose to shave it.

[@debakantabiswal9988]

I never had a balding problem. Mine was my hair going white starting at the age of 15. I am now 35 years old and my hair is 90+% white. This is why I started shaving bald.

[@BaljinderSingh-xy4ik]

I also have white hair but i m using jamican castor oil to reverse it..

[@tprime2702]

Genetics studies into balding shows that its inhereited from the mother's genetics, specifically from the mytotic envelopment of the oocyte during the first trimester. It's believed that those telomeres code to structure follicles far shorter in some areas of the body rather than others resulting in a heavily methylated chemical structure but not on the ends of the roots, rather at the root itself.

[@justinthematrix]

Dude looks great. Fantastic beard too

[@PAC0717]

Myself a typical indian.When i was loosing my hair at first i was afraid that how people going to think. They going to make fun on me They going to kick me out of the groups. And same in my family. Who ever seeing they ask about my age. If say i am 23. And they ask what what did you said come again.... At that point I was feeling like so depression.for so many days/months. And that time i started to seeing you video from a day one. i going to shave my head. That video inspired me a lot. And i started to seeing your videos and. I through to shave my head. And i done it. And there story begins. And through they may leave me for moment. And people who ever they are seeing me asked the same question your 29 right (Actually i am 23-24) for some i say i am not 29 and i have to explain them the reason behind my baldness. After some months if some one asked what was your i started to say like i am 30. And at final by a force of a society. I weares a wig after 2-3 years of bald and felt happy for some months and people starts ask is that wig your wearing.. Hey i find it. Okay okay don't worry i won't say to anybody. But actually after some months every body knows it. And exactly after this video I through what ever you do people going to say something and again I going to shave my head I think that's permanent. Thanks a lot to you the most you made to take decision whenever I was depression. Thanks a lot @baldcafe

[@vinayakshinde4528]

yeah man being a bald is more tough in India. But still two words 'just ignore'.

[@virtualcastle2]

Yo losing the hair has made this dude 200% hotter wtf he looks so good now

[@joejo4549]

I was clearly losing hair since last summer but two days ago a hair wash shedded the last bits away giving a clear bald spot. Only 26 but been in despair, crying etc honestly feels like I'm losing a part of my identity

[@poisonrana]

Harry that beard is looking amazing now

[@Byokku2013]

Those glasses really help pull off the bald look

[@scotthight4012]

I'm 28 and been going bald at 24 and it just got bad. So now I just decided to shave it all off. My head is pale now 😂 and my wife hates it cause the way it feels. But I think it looks great I feel more comfortable and confident in public without a hat now.

[@tommymakaveli8102]

I decided to shave my head even if I got a long hair because I put the long hair from the side to cover my bald so now I feel comfortable I don’t care anything

[@jamworthy14]

Listen mate life is bigger than hair.. it's just in ur head .. i am losing hair.. fuck it . Get with it . Life will be normal still. It's all just in you. Trust me the power it takes to accept balding is an advantage for us actually.

[@siddharthraychaudhuri7250]

Absolutely agree. Indians and Pakistanis are very rude towards young bald men. For the old ones lot of respect but men in 20s and especially unmarried they outright rude. I am a fit guy miles ahead in athletic ability than any of my cousins but be any family gathering roasting my baldness is the favourite activity. As if women and men don't come with their flaws, if at all this be a flaw. Great video and kudos the Pakistani bro.

Hi mate sorry no where else to message you I don't have instagram. I've started using the RX5 and it's giving me bad irrigation on my neck. I'm wondering would razor shaving give me that same irrigation. I am getting to my wit's end trying to find a good routine for my head. Clippers aren't short enough but the RX5 is ripping me to bits. I really wanna try a razor shave but I'm petrified my head will come out really bad

Hair transplant is best solution?

[@Baldcafe]

Hair transplant is your best hope if you are hoping to try you best to maintain the appearance of a full head of hair. I’d say a hair system might actually be better but both have their own disadvantages
