Baldness issues - hair system option??

[Demoralised_10]

Good afternoon to everyone at LS. I posted a while ago about the issue that's been plaguing my life for some years now. I am a balding male in his thirties who as time has gone on, has become very self conscious of my rapidly disappearing locks, almost obsessively so.

I have had some therapy to talk over my problems, but it doesn't seem to go away.

Last year I travelled to Belgium to see a top HT surgeon with the intention of paying £12k plus for a procedure. This money was saved for a house, I was willing to fore go that if my hair could be restored that's how bad it's become.

However my density and donor area were not sufficient enough to achieve any kind of desired results and therefore not advised.

I thought that once I had closure so to speak it would help me move on and deal with it.. It didnt.

Now I'm left with the hair system route, I've done my research and some these days look good and importantly natural looking.

What are you thoughts, have any of you had any experience with systems or currently wearing?

I'm single and my confidence is rock bottom now than ever before, females what is your take on a bloke wearing a system?

Appreciate all your comments as always and cant advocate enough how helpful this site is!

I am too mate (as you would say). I'm trying to groom it as best as I can. Soon i'll have to go all zero guard. It's a tough thing I've also struggled with but i'm trying to flip it in my mind as a positive. (Real manly, rough, tough, I could care less about hair look) And while I say flip, there are women out there who would not consider this a flip but fact! No system. Shave that, hire a trainer, eat well, get healthy.

Confidence is what is attractive in a man. Try to see if you can get comfortable with the idea of yourself bald. A confident, well built, bald man can be very attractive, more so than with a hair system. But if you absolutely do not think you can pull it off- go with a hair system. Don't wait until you are years into a comb-over or something like that though- I think the time to do it would be sooner rather than later and then whatever you do just own that decision, make it work for you. The most important thing I'm trying to say here, is get that confidence in yourself back.

 

 

I made a terrible decision a few years ago to get glue in hair extensions after a bad haircut. When those extensions came out so did most of my hair. I had to get one of those inverted bob cuts. I was sick. I moped around for about a week before I could even bring myself to wash it. Down is not even a strong enough word for how I felt. Finally, I got up one morning, decided the rest of me was still pretty dang good, washed my hair, got all dressed up, and just decided to rock it. It's not always about the hair, trust me, the confidence makes all the difference. And be glad, be very, very glad you aren't a women with hair problems. We women are a whole lot more forgiving and less judgmental toward men in the looks department than men are toward women.
