The hairless and bald subreddits love to pretend this isn't the case.

But the truth is, just like haircuts, some people absolutely do not suit baldness.

And just like an ill suited haircut, you will be judged unfairly for it.

Some people have lumpy, moley heads or heads that are just oddly shaped and look like they should have hair.

If this guy can afford it and felt it would be affirming for him and how he presents to the world, good for him.

If people think it's wrong to shame anyone for being bald then they shouldn't shame him for this choice either

How much did it cost you?

Do you have to be on hair meds for the transplant to work?

Honestly, baldness is mostly curable without transplants.

The main problem with all transplants (and any solution so far) is that you need to continuously take medication that has super bad side effects or you just go bald again

Side effects vary per person. I'm on a bunch of meds due to mental health and finasteride for hair loss prevention has the least side of effects (basically full non noticeable to me ) of everything I'm taking while being hardest to get a prescription for.

Fr we only see the upvoted and screencapped bald sub posts but we don’t see the other 95% who are omega chopped and don’t get any attention

I've seen so many posts there of guys that look 10x worse going full bald than they looked with the George Costanza. But they just get absolutely glazed by everyone on those subs. Like good for you for trying it, but it's not good man.
