When To Shave Your Head When Going Bald

When your hair is thinning and you are starting to go bald, when should you decide to shave your head? Recently I noticed my hair was beginning to really thin and I had developed several bald spots. After messing with my hair for months I decided to shave my head. Since then, I have learned some lessons and wanted to share my thoughts on when a balding man should shave his head.

Going bald at 29. Shaved my head, and it was the best decision ever

[@easykinaka]

How bald are we talking?

[@gdubleu]

You actually look younger with it shaved.

[@shyman99]

I've never seen a better transformation in my life. You went from just an average man to an epic stallion stud with a head shave. The beard is the perfect touch. Congrats on the new look. You really rock it.

[@vincenicholas7743]

shyman99 Eah? The bearded & bald combo is very common these days. I was rocking that style 2 years ago.

[@Baldcafe]

I loved this video and the advice was rather spot on 👍

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks man, it’s an honor to have you drop a comment on the video!

[@laughingwizzy5885]

Simple Man little did he know you’re growing your hair and it’s actually growing hair in the bald areas lol

[@vxsr33]

Dude you already shaved it, just keep it shaved. You look much better that way and there's nothing worse than a guy who is visibly balding trying to keep his hair. This is coming from a bald 22 year old

[@spad3516]

i'm 18 and my hair is balding

[@vincenicholas7743]

buzz killington I disagree. He looked better with longer hair

[@MqKosmos]

My hair isnt really balding but I always told myself when it does ill shave. Im 24, shaved my hair even though i didnt need to. Looks great :D

[@Randki]

@@vincenicholas7743 It would look better if he cleaned up his beard and faded it into his head.

[@petereichman472]

You need a new barber dude. Just shorten it and style it differently. It only looks bad when you're trying to wear a style that you do not have enough hair volume to support.

[@sandozkarika]

nothing wrong w.balding it's actually normal. normal is ok.

[@SimpleManChannel]

Yep exactly. That’s what I was trying to say in the video, no need to over react, you(the person worrying about their balding head) probably notice it more than anyone else and it’s not as bad as you (the person balding) are probably making it out to be. Thanks man!

[@davidarbelaez4395]

Generally, 70% of men lose their hair but can rock a full thick beard. The remaining 30% of men can grow a full head of hair but grow patchy beards. I’m sure there are exceptions to this rule.

[@buzzmcbuzzed6468]

You look amazing with the shaved head and beard!!

[@staygold9798]

im getting to the point of shavin my hair too,... Me and My nice wavy hair had a good run all these years .. but now its time to say goodbye

[@iost5459]

Still got all my hair, just watching in preparation

[@HABWARRIOR]

Same

[@hairycueball]

Believe my bald head, you made the right decision, you look far better with this bald and bearded look than before. Maintain your dome smooth with lather and blade. Given the round shape of youhead, you should perhaps try to replace you full beard by a goatee or to trim it shorter on the sides.

[@SimpleManChannel]

I did just that last night, I think it does look much better. Good advice!

[@Baldcafe]

Shaved head and beard looking awesome man

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks man!

[@shadybrooks8174]

I saw a walmart manager today desperately trying to cover his bald spot by gelling his hair down. It was litterally stuck to his head. He was a really good looking guy but was still trying to holding on to that piece of hair. Theres nothing wrong with being bald. Most bald guys I've seen look good.

[@darrylthompson7509]

What if a guy was 19 and bald?

[@vincenicholas7743]

ShadyBrooks maybe he was just having a bad hair day?

[@shanelynch2695]

When I started going bald I shaved my head and I loved it because it suited me and it's more masculine looking.

[@SimpleManChannel]

I can’t stand to let my hair grow out now. Once you go shaved, it’s hard to go back

[@pfh777]

“It was time” is an easier explanation and people get it. Don’t forget sunscreen now. I’m in Miami so that means year round.

[@matthewoesch2364]

Thank you for this video. My hair is thinning too I’m 37yo but holding on a little longer. Nice to hear you’re going to grow your hair back. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks bud! I’m 33, keep it while you still can, that’s my motto haha.

[@Jamie7ee]

Do you still have your hair 9 months on bro? I’m 34 and debating biting the bullet and going ahead with buzz cutting it all off as I’m thinning :(

[@paulscott6998]

You’re always going to look younger with hair! Spike it up more with product and keep it short, but not too short.

[@SimpleManChannel]

Yeah I’ve been considering growing it out a little bit.

[@notyetskeletal4809]

When you rubbed your hands on your freshly shaven head I could feel it.

[@d.viajes3882]

His bald crown is PERFECT!! 😎👍

[@rubo-one]

It actually didn’t look that bad before you shaved it, but your hair is a lighter color. I have jet black hair, making my balding spot more visible.

[@ForeverShadowBanned]

I'm only 17 and already Norwood 3 and i'm honestly thinking about just shaving my head and forgetting about having hair. I fucking hate balding.

[@DarkAutumn3D]

This ONLY works if it actually suits you to be bald! Being pale skinned with light eyebrows does NOT work well with this lol. I have a lot of hair but my crown is thinning. Going bald isn't an option for me as even stylists have told me it won't suit me.

[@DhiscoStu]

Which is why virtually every "head shaving is great" video is a guy with a bold beard and well defined eyebrows :p

[@billpeart]

The shaved head look is the new comb over.

[@vincenicholas7743]

Pete Privitere guys think they look better with a buzzed/shaved head. I’ve got over the peer pressure of buzzing. When I grew my out, my girlfriend was surprised that I had hair. She thought I couldn’t grow hair and that’s why I buzzed it.

[@Mbq-sh6bj]

Awesome video, very insightful, especially the part about being hypersensitive about the way hair / balding looks. Not just a good video about head shaving but the mental processing behind it all. Thanks!

[@GhostRiderSpiritOfVengeance]

Hey.. .Thank you so much for taking the time making this video. It helped me so much more than you know.

[@rjcarter2904]

Awesome! You look...maybe a 1000 times better. Very handsome!

[@cactaceous]

I was with the dude until the 4:16 mark when he clearly stated he's still in denial.

[@TheBezwet]

Man, You look freaking awesome with a bald head!

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thank you!

[@greenlaceblue]

looking so much better dude

[@97widerider]

I was 50 before I finally mustarded up the courage to use a 3mm and cut it off. Wished I had done it 20 years earlier.

[@TheRowlandstone73]

To be honest, I thought the same as you about your hair not looking that bad to begin with. When the video started, I was like, "Why's he shaving that?" Having it wet and long-ish obviously makes it look worse. Even though you looked fine with it shaved, (especially once the top of your head had gotten a bit of colour), I kinda hope you grew it back, kept it shorter and started using a dry-look product like a paste or a matte wax.

[@euanelliott3613]

When I got my thinning hair shaved off the neighbours said I looked much better. Where I live skinheads are the norm rather than the exception. English footballer David Beckham made a shaved head fashionable in 2000. God bless him.

[@Declined469]

The only bad part about shaving your head is the lack of a tan. But that will change over less than a month if you keep shaving it off.

[@RababaInc]

with that kind of beard you could rock any hairstyle. looking reaaally good shaved though! I wish I had a proper beard, so I could shave my head too

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks man!

[@turkishsmurf]

Welcome to the egg gang we are very accepting here we know your struggle 👌🏻🤘🏻👍🏼

[@LuisPerez-ny5hf]

I just want to thank you for sharing this. It has helped me a lot!

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks man, glad it helped!

[@eyeswideopen2536]

if you notice youre going bald just shave your head and take up weight training. job done

[@Baldcafe]

Sound advice

[@Sam-sp7qh]

Yes sir. Grow a beard and go to the gym

[@AlbertoMartinez-un8zl]

Working on it

[@frenchonj]

Why go to the gym.it takes forever to see any resultes you would have to put in time everyday and change your diet.

[@jonnyfrmtheblck]

You seem like the nicest dude. Just saying. I dig the buzz on you. It’s a good look for you.

[@ramtha9]

You are a cool human being. Thanks...

[@Aligned211]

Gr8 video..... you just talked me OUT of shaving my head.lol

[@SimpleManChannel]

Haha, thanks man. My shaved head grew on me, I love it now!

[@AlexA-de7is]

[@tmac160]

That's a good video you've made there. Some good tips and food for thought.

No more sorrows white your haircut ,keep iT.

[@thatonechillguy2427]

I'm 28 and I'm already starting to bald at the hairline and i also have some gray hairs, i guess I'll join team bald.

[@SimpleManChannel]

It's really not too bad, you;ll learn to love it.

[@bennycaustic5102]

Someone needs to make an edit where the Vine boom sound effects whenever someone shows their male pattern baldness.

[@jeanguyproulx2906]

You looked better with the thin hair.

[@russellbogrett605]

Im a barber who shaves, it makes my clients who think about doing it to give it try

[@wade2922]

If people ask tell them, you got in a fight with a weed wacker

[@insightvideo6136]

Thanks man! Great video!

[@localguide6569]

I like this handsome, hot and sexy bald look with facial hair! Great decision! Generally beautiful people don't need hair. :-)

[@SkrapSF83]

The only thing I worry about is how it’s going to affect my job in sales, I know my looks help but what will happen once I change my look? Make less money 😒 that would suck!

[@MaloneysDigest]

Good job chief!

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks man!

[@slowturtle6745]

Easy decision, I have naturally curly hair...looked like Bozo The Clown.

[@DJTXD123]

You still have decent hair you should keep it, maybe buzz it to a number 2

[@SimpleManChannel]

I have too much gray hair haha I prefer it shorter for that reason

[@vincenicholas7743]

With about 4-5 inches of hair and not dying his beard, he’d be a SilverFox.

[@mariamkhan3833]

You look quite dope when it's all shaved out 👌👌

[@davidarbelaez4395]

We live in a time where we have the time, money and leisure to sit around worrying about whether to shave our heads, whether to grow a beard or both. I could imagine a time long ago when men did things out of necessity not choice.

[@chaseattaway7058]

Are you bald?Cause if you ain't you have no idea what it feels like to have your self esteem at a young age cut away

[@NotTempest]

I’m 22 and my hair is getting really thin on the top

[@ibraheem128]

Your hair didnt look that bad but you should keep it shaved you look good

[@lynnmonkres6451]

It’s easier to shave your head the more hair you lose. I hate the old man look with bald top and hair on sides and back, even though I lived with it a long time as my hair thinned on top. I like it buzzed 0 now or bald shaved. I’m also lazy and don’t want to blade shave daily. Every 7~10 days is good. I can do a 0 buzz pretty quickly so if I’m in a hurry I go with that. I feel comfortable with both and since I do it myself now due to the pandemic, I can do what I ;Ike at any time without waiting for a barber. It’s very freeing and I’ve learned a lot through KZbin tutorials. I feel much better!n

[@JpNinja003]

If only i had a beard....

[@beyondoff-road1663]

My brother needs to do this.

[@KMFlivin]

Looks way better man

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks bud!

[@marqueswilsonn]

Dude looks bad ass

[@tytoalba605]

Strugle for me is the patchy stubble and punk spirit that wants to just let it grow out. I don't get the comments but I was a weekly new do person so it wasn't as crazy as a person with a forever style.

[@jobananas3052]

Im at the basically the same point where you are here now and I'm still on the fence about shaving it, the front is receded but still pretty thick whete it is. If I wasnt taking Rogaine id prob be due for the shave though and im debating just shaving and stopping Rogaine.

[@JoeT-re5ro]

If your watching this vid it’s time to shave it

[@martinwilliams9098]

You really do look like a new younger guy much better

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks man, I really appreciate the compliment!

[@SimpleManChannel]

Thanks man!

[@ricklanders]

Dude looks like Andy Roddick - with a beard, lol. Looks much better shaved

[@sandozkarika]

hairy bald is the new shave.

[@arjaydalusong5799]

Have you ever experience hairfall?

[@mebeasensei]

You looked way better with hair, but I know you felt way worse. Honestly, you have nice hair and it shapes your face well front and back, but top is bad, I agree. I wouldn't be able to resist shaving it if I were you, especially after a bad day or when really tired or frustrated. Politicians are a good guide. They aren't stupid, and they have some of the most ridiculous comb-overs out there.

[@thesavage5783]

You look like a bald Leo Messi

[@SimpleManChannel]

Haha people say that a lot

[@niltomega2978]

My god hair transplants are so cheap now and they totally work. I think losing your hair is like a bad break up with a girl you really love. You know at some point you can't have her...so you just dump her (shave your head). Then you never look back...but guess what you CAN get her back...all of her. Hair transplants are like $3900.00 now. ..and they are forever ... unless you like shaving your damn head every day for the rest of your life !.

[@aleksandardinic6465]

Do not hide anymore if you can tell me why are so bald

[@seancountryman2672]

Ik this vid is 3 years old but I’m 17 going on 18 and I have an extreme hair loss issue and im very insecure ab it and I just wanna know if anyone knows how to overcome that

[@elaineblanchard4775]

Your gorgeous still man hair aint the man !

[@tqsuited]

Use some hair fibre product, it works well for diffuse thinning like your hair.

[@cornstar1253]

Until people can see that you effectively painted your scalp with dust.

[@DJTXD123]

Also i did the samd as you, im 27 and i buzzed it recently, havent shaved it in two weeks, looks very fuzzy, any tips on growing it out?

[@SimpleManChannel]

I started growing mine back out but after comparing my hair to past pictures it was getting worse, so I buzzed it with no guard. I’ve grown used to it now and prefer it this way for the time being

[@emanuele1023]

[@cornstar1253]

You looked better before. Just keep it really short. Not buzzed

U looking very Nate

Damn it 🐶

[@raltoriche9128]

Bro you looked way better with the hair you had. Don’t fall into the hype

[@sandozkarika]

you are over reacting

[@gailbannister3919]

This is a woman's perspective on young men shaving heads. Sorry, you all look like the pinheads that you are. If you go bald with age it is like your hair turning grey. There is a time for it as you grow older. So don't try to fool yourselves, you are not better looking bald and young. You are not more macho. You simply look stupid, cancer ridden or a member of a gang.

[@philiposwald780]

Gail Bannister well, aren’t you kind of a bish?

[@Krunchyjclown]

Your video is so true. I'm developing a skullet. I'm still on the fence as to I should cut it off or not.

[@vincenicholas7743]

krunchy Clown rock the combover as long as you can. These shaved heads have increased like wildfire. Be different.
