Is this the part we say it looks bad?
Or the part we say don't have kids when you're young?

The Norwood Reaper has struck
I must say it feels fantastic, very liberating. Now for the gym and maybe a beard.
Yep, beard would look awesome

Not that it looked even remotely bad before, I do think it looks much better after. Suits you.

Yeah I think it's time to shave lad....
Not really much you can do with that and it just looks worse if you let it grow out with that much missing. I'm so lucky i'm 30's and zero balding. Aside usual bit of widows peak that i've had since early 20's.
Shave and post update pics.
Edit: Yep see he's shaved, looks better OP as expected..... really not much you can do aside shell out for hair transplant but that is expensive
Edit2: and yes grow out the beard.

I wondered what the update was on this.
Great to see you took the plunge
I think as we grow older we adapt our self view. When I first shaved my head a few friends around me were initially shocked. But then they respected that I'd made such a choice. A lot of people fear change. So they will respect you for your choice.

So reluctant to do your head yet you were waxing your shoulders and upper arms all along you sexy minx.
As you get older you'll find you do your ear and nose hairs more than your head anyway...

So you look less like Matt Lucas and more like Jason Statham

More like a bald Ian Poulter. Definitely looks better.
I wouldn't worry about it in the slightest. I've seen loads of ugly bald old/fat minger men with well fit ladies.
If you are fat or skinny, young/teen, no job or on minimum wage, living at parents home, then you have something to worry about. But other than that... then no worries.
Facts of life really.

I used some old Boots mains-powered clippers with a #1 guard, but the adjustment was all the way out (open?), so less short on the #1 side.
I shaved it last night and went into work this morning. Reactions received were basically as follows:
- Absolutely no reaction, facial or verbal
- Looks clean, going for the Jason Statham look?
- No speaking but mouth open in surprise and rubbing own head as we walked past each other
- Wow, where did your hair go? I need to do that soon too
- Probably loads of silent unknown reactions that I didn't notice
Nobody laughed or took the pee, at least openly.

Because muscular builds typically suit a bald look. Gotta work with what you have.
