How to choose an electric shaver?
What to consider before buying a bald head electric shaver?

If you're in the market for a bald head shaver, you want to make sure you find the best one for your needs. The right shaver can make all the difference in the outcome of your grooming routine. When shopping for a bald head shaver, you'll want to consider factors such as blade type, motor power, and handle grip. Some shavers are designed specifically for bald heads, while others may be more suitable for maintaining a closely-cropped hairstyle. It's important to research and compare different models before making a purchase to ensure you're getting the best product for your money.

The Electric shavers are certainly a lot more convenient and easier to use than razors. They come with the best functions, extra features and accessories, which will make your shaving process more than just a daily routine, but an enjoyable process.

The process of finding the best head shaver might not be that obvious so here are some key points of an electric shaver you should look for.

1. Foil vs rotary 

Electric shavers come in two types: foil and rotary. A rotary shaver usually comes with three or more circular heads moving in rotation on the full blade head. The foil shaver comes with oscillating blades covered with a foil sheet. The foil sheet pulls the hair inside and it's cut by the blades. Foil vs rotary shaver: the decision is yours to make.

2. Wet vs Dry

The best bald head shavers work great with both wet and dry shaving. Using your foil or rotary electric shaver with shaving foam or cream will provide more comfort and the hot water will soften your hair and nicely prepare your skin for a smoother shave. However, many people prefer a quick dry shave, that is for, electric shavers are the best.

3. Cleaning

All head shavers require cleaning maintenance. Some of them will have to be cleaned out on a daily basis, while others will only need periodic cleanings.
Usually, rotary shavers come with blades that are designed to capture shaved hair inside their large shaving chambers. Those removable rotary blades normally come off in a snap, making it easy to give your blades a deep clean inside and out, which extends the blade life and keeps your shaves as smooth as day one. 

4. Battery life

If you choose a shaver with the option of cordless use, you’d want to look into the battery life. How long will you be able to use the razor on a full charge? How long does it take the shaver to be fully charged?
Many head shavers come with an integrated lithium-ion battery, which allows quick charging and a long duration of cordless use. This gives you the freedom to shave anywhere and anytime at your convenience. 

5. Accessories & Extra Features

The best head shavers are made with both travel and comfort in mind, and often have advanced features and accessories that help to ensure a comfortable shaving experience.

• Many head shavers come with LCD displays that show the battery level in percentages to make the daily usage of your shaver even more practical.
• Many of the models come with a smart travel-lock function, in order to prevent the device from accidentally turning on while in your luggage. This feature is great for travellers.
• Another feature that the head shaver may have is the wash-indicator function, which shows when it's time to clean the blades.
• Certain shavers come with accessories like a travel case, a shaving brush, or a rinse stand that are meant to make usage and cleaning more comfortable and efficient.

6. Price

Electric head shavers can vary widely in price. When choosing one, it's important to find a model that fits your budget and has good quality. Keep in mind that you'll need to replace the blades every 3-6 months, so factor the cost of those into your decision. It's also important to make sure that the overall cost of maintaining the shaver fits into your budget.

7. Warranty

When considering an electric head razor, it's important to think about the warranty that comes with it. If your shaver experiences a problem, you may need to get it repaired or replaced. A manufacturer's warranty can protect you from additional costs in these situations, as the manufacturer may provide you with a new shaver at no extra charge.

What is a Rotary Shaver and who is it for?

A rotary shaver

A rotary shaver usually comes with three or more circular heads moving in rotation on the full blade head. The movement of the rotation is in circular motions, with any direction you prefer while shaving.

The circular shaving heads are designed to follow the contour of your face, head, neck and any other part of your body. Due to the rotation of the heads, all the hair is captured, despite the direction of the hair growth and thickness. The rotating blades make it easier to glide over difficult and hard-to-reach areas such as the jawline, ears, Adam’s apple or, if you have higher cheekbones, etc.

The rotary shaver gives you more flexibility of movement while shaving. You won’t have any limitations when choosing which direction to shave, as they have multidirectional capabilities.

In other words, rotary shavers are spinning blades that retract into their housing (full blade head).

• These shavers are best for shaing large areas such as head, neck and arms..
• Also, if you have thicker or curly hair that grows wildly in different directions, then you may consider a rotary shaver.
• The rotary shaver is a decent choice if you don’t like much noise or higher sound, as the motor operates quieter than the foil shaver.

How it works?

As seen above, the rotary shaver comes with 3 or more circular heads moving in rotation. The blades move in a circular motion, in different directions. By that, they capture the hair inside the blades and achieve a maximum close and clean shave.

What is a Foil Shaver and who is it for?

A foil shaver

A foil shaver works differently. It comes with bouncing blades covered with foil sheet, retracted in the housing (body of the shaver).

First things first let’s understand what the foil is. It is a thin sheet of metal with holes in the foil. The function of the foil is important as it covers the cutting blades and becomes a barrier between your skin and the blades to ensure maximum security while shaving.. The foil sheet pulls the hair inside and is cut by the blades, giving a close shave. The foil shaver must be used in a straight line. The blades move in one direction, either up and down, or left and right. So, you will have to move the foil shaver in an opposite direction of the blades’ movement following the direction of your hair growth, to get the best results.

• The foil shaver offers close-cutting performance with the help of the foil. Go for it if you’re looking for accuracy and precision shaving where a specific line is necessary.
• If you have sensitive skin, you may consider the foil shaver for the better results.
• These shavers are the best option for thinner and fine hair.
• Foil shavers work well for face shaving. They work better at trimming sideburns and styling.

How does a foil shaver work?

As seen above, the foil shaver consists of bouncing blades covered with a foil sheet, and the body of the shaver. The foil sheet pulls the hair inside, where the hair is cut by the blades, giving you the closest and smoothest shave.

What is the difference between rotary and foil shavers?
Foil vs Rotary Shaver: Which one to choose?

Now let’s understand the differences between rotary and foil shavers, see the pros and cons of both the shavers and summarize their advantages and disadvantages.

Here are 5 main differences between rotary and foil shavers:

1. The blade of the foil shaver is designed to move in one direction – a straight line, either upward and downward, or left and right. The blade of the rotary shaver is designed to move in multi-direction – in circular motions.
2. Foil shaver gives you precision and the closest shave when the foil pulls the hair inside and oscillating blades cut them.
3. Foil shaver is for thinner, fine and straight hair. Rotary shaver is for straight, as well as, for coarse and thicker hair.
4. Foil shaver is considered to be the sharpest, however, they are the loudest! It has a higher volume while shaving and can be noisy with a buzzing sound. Rotary shaver operates in much lower volume without causing any noise or high-pitched sound.
5. Foil shaver is for those with fine facial features. It nicely does its job with small and gentle areas, good for detailed styling (with straight lines). Rotary shaver is for those with tough facial features. It will easily adapt to the contours of head and face, as the blade heads have more freedom with their movements. So, a rotary shaver is perfect to shave head, face and larger areas.

Here is a comparison chart for all the differences presented above.

Why are some bald heads shiny?

Have you ever noticed bald heads shining and you wonder how it happens? Here are the main reasons why bald men have shiny heads. Think about what will happen if you don’t wash your hair for days. It will get greasy and oily, right? This oil-like substance on your hair is called sebum and basically works as a lubricant. Sebum continues to be produced even in the absence of hair, bald people produce as much sebum as people who have hair on their heads, and sweat glands continue to function. If a person had hair, it would absorb everything, and when there is no hair, the secretions accumulate on the head. This causes the reflection of light and makes bald heads shiny.

Best ways to eliminate shiny bald head

Every bald man knows the challenges of being bald, one of which is the infamous shine or glare of your skull. Unlike those who prefer shiny bald heads, there are those who on the contrary prefer a much more matte look, and make efforts for getting that desirable result. Here, we will discuss effective ways to minimize or get rid of your head shine. There are a variety of ways that one may eliminate shininess from the bald head.

• As you know, a perfectly clean and close shave gives your scalp not only a fresh and clean look but also a super shiny look. Thus, some people prefer a clean-cut, in order to add extra shininess on the head. So if you want to eliminate the shine, you need to do the opposite of that: leave a little stubble on your head rather than a close shave.
• Another way to eliminate the shine from your head is regularly using an exfoliant while washing your scalp. Exfoliating is the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. As such, your skin will become fresh – with a non-greasy texture on the surface.

We have already discussed some products that are not oily and greasy, still being an effective way for giving a shiny look on your head, and there are plenty of products that will help you prevent and eliminate your shiny bald head.

Let’s dive in!

Shaving rash (razor burn) vs. razor bumps

How you can prevent the shaving rash if you have one? How it's different from razor bumps?
Let's check the differences between them!
Shaving rash, or razor burn, is a skin irritation that can be caused by dry shaving, shaving too harsh and rude, shaving with dull blades, or having too sensitive skin. It usually appears on the head, face, neck, legs, and pubes. The irritated part becomes red, and the skin texture differs from usual. It can feel like a burning or itching sensation, which gradually goes away when it gets healed. Other symptoms of razor burn may be redness, itching, stinging sensation and bumps.

Aren’t shaving bumps the same as razor burns?
Razor burn and razor bumps are often encountered together, but they are actually 2 different skin conditions. Razor bumps are caused by ingrown hair, trapped inside the pore, which causes a bump to form. They occur after using hair removal techniques such as shaving, waxing, and plucking. Also, they appear after shaving rash.

What causes a shaving rash?

You may ask yourself, “Why do I always get a shaving rash or shaving bumps on my skin?", "What am I doing wrong?”
Let’s see some causes of how we get a shaving rash on the skin.

Dry shaving

Pressing too hard & Aggressive shaving

Dull blades

Sensitive skin

Sensitive skin is skin with reduced tolerance to cosmetics and skincare products, shaving methods and anything that can affect it. If your skin is sensitive, it may be easily triggered by different shaving methods and be more vulnerable to razor burn. Therefore, you will need to protect your skin with before-and-after skincare products in order to avoid a shaving rash.

How to prevent rash after shaving your head?

As mentioned above, the skin rash can appear on different parts of the body depending on the skin type, the frequency of shaving the same spot, the skincare routine, and the products applied after shaving. One of the most unwanted areas for a razor burn is the head because, unfortunately, it is the most visible one.

Here are practical steps on how to avoid shaving rash and razor bumps on the head.

Wet shave

“Dry shaving causes micro-cuts in the skin, as well as folliculitis, ingrown, irritation, and dryness,” says Melissa Kanchanapoomi Levin, MD, dermatologist and founder of Entière Dermatology.

And according to Dr Hadley King, "If you don't use a product with emollients and occlusive to protect and moisturize the skin, you can end up with abrasions and irritation — this is razor burn."

Avoid shaving the affected area

Choose the right shaver

Using the right shaver is the key to a comfortable shave. One of the most important features the shaver should have is sharp blades. Whether it’s a razor or an electric shaver, make sure to keep the blades sharp. For that, we recommend replacing the blades regularly. Moreover, wash the blades after each use to keep them clean and hygienic for the next shave. The electric razors are perfect for shaving heads, so the best you can do is shave your head with an electric razor. Choose an electric razor that has both wet and dry shaving options to prevent razor burn. As we have seen previously, wet shaving can be beneficial and more convenient for men with sensitive skin. For the latter, I would recommend using a blade, specifically designed for your sensitive skin. The choice of the right blade can save you from shaving rash. If you have sensitive skin, you will love the Baron blade that features three cutting rings per shaving head, to provide a safer cut for you.

Use aftershave products

An aftershave product can help you to prevent the rash after shaving the head. It’s one of the best ways to avoid the discomfort that may occur after shaving. Aftershave is essential for men with sensitive skin to prevent rash, irritation, skin dryness and help calm redness and itching. So the purpose of aftershave is not only to make the skin refreshed and nicely scented but also to prevent razor burn after the shave. In addition, it provides extra protection to your skin and helps it to maintain skin hygiene.

“Never, ever skip moisturizing the skin after a shave. It’s essential to moisturize immediately out of the shower to lock in the moisture and reduce inflammation from shaving,” says Marnie Nussbaum, MD, dermatologist. 

Get on a regular skincare routine 

You may wonder how to build your skincare routine?
A skincare routine consists of three main steps: cleansing, toning, and moisturizing. It is important to follow the correct order, to get the skin of your dreams.
Your first step should be a warm shower to soften your skin and hair. The next step is to apply the scrub in order to exfoliate the skin, prepare it and remove the dead skin cells. After this, the skin will be ready for shaving without getting nicks and cuts. When you are done with shaving, apply toners and moisturizers (aftershave products). This routine will help you prevent rash after shaving your head. 

“Wash your razor every two to three strokes. Rinse skin with cool water after you shave and pat skin dry. Also, do not shave over the same area more than once. Use shaving cream and gel: these textures coat the hair and enhance the glide of the razor against skin, helping minimize potential skin irritation,” says Joshua Zeichner, MD, director of cosmetic and clinical research at Mount Sinai Hospital.

Practical steps to prevent bumps:

• Wash your face to remove excess oil.
• Exfoliate the area you will shave with a gentle scrub to clean out the pores and remove the dead skin.
• Always shave in the downward direction, in the same direction that your hair grows.
• Keep the shaved area always clean and avoid touching it.
• Apply a warm compress to open the pores and help the ingrown hair to come out. It will also help to relieve the pain.

“Exfoliating your head prior to shaving will remove the dead skin cells, allowing easier gliding and better hair removal, which will also dramatically decrease razor bumps and ingrown hair,” says Marnie Nussbaum, MD, dermatologist.

How to stop shaving rash on the head?

While all of the above helps prevent shaving rash, you’d likely want to know what to do if you already have one. So how to treat razor burn on your head and speed up the healing process.

“One of the best treatments for razor burn is no treatment!” says Robert Finney, MD, a dermatologist.

In order to help your skin cure faster, avoid touching the affected area of the skin. Moreover, stop shaving the affected area so that it heals faster.

What are the main treatments to speed up the healing process?

Warm and Cold compress

One of the best ways to treat the razor burn is a cold compress. It will cool the affected area of the head and help reduce skin irritation or itching. In other words, it will help soothe irritated skin and stop the irritation faster than it would get healed naturally.
On the other hand, a warm compress is more helpful than a cold one for treating shaving bumps. It will open the pores and help ingrown hairs to come out.

 

Aloe vera

Aloe vera is known for its healing and cooling properties. It can even heal first and second-degree burns as well. Apply a thin layer of pure aloe vera or natural aloe vera gel on the affected area of the skin. The skin will get cooled (It will have a cooling effect on your skin), and razor burn will heal sooner.
Also, note that in the same way, you can use cucumber as well. It has similar cooling and relaxing properties and is easy to find.

 

Green tea and Chamomile

Green tea has anti-inflammatory properties and can help reduce skin irritation, shaving rash, skin redness, and swelling. Applying green tea to your skin can soothe minor cuts and sunburn as well. As it has strong anti-inflammatory properties, it’s an effective treatment for many dermatological conditions.
Along with green tea, chamomile tea or the oil extract may also help cure redness, hyperpigmentation, and acne. Chamomile is also used in wound healing and soothes sensitive and irritated skin and razor burn as well.

 

Baking soda

Baking soda has a cooling effect on the skin and can stop shaving rash. You can use it as a paste (dense) or mix it with more water (in more liquid form). Apply it on the affected area on the head with a cotton pad and leave it until the soda dries, then rinse it off.

 

Tea tree oil

Tea tree oil is an anti-inflammatory oil. It helps to soothe and relieve painful and irritated skin, discomfort, itchiness, and razor burns. It also has antibacterial properties and antiseptic components; thus, it effectively heals wounds. Apply the oil to the affected area a few times per day.
Mix one tablespoon of olive oil with five drops of tea tree oil. Use a cotton ball and apply the mixture to the affected area. Let sit for 15 minutes and wash off with warm water.

 

Coconut oil

Coconut oil is associated with a multitude of healthy properties and benefits. It is a good antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Coconut oil should be applied directly to the areas where there is a shaving rash. It keeps the irritated and dry skin hydrated and moisturized.
“Because coconut oil is solid in cooler climates, it melts into the skin as a person applies it, which will feel soothing,” says Marie Hayag, MD, dermatologist
In the same way as the oils mentioned above, you can use other organic and natural food oils, such as sunflower seed oil, avocado oil, almond oil, grape seed oil, etc.
“Oils add a layer of protection against the razor and can ease the shaving process. They help to soften the skin, thus making hair removal much easier,” says Gunvor Ekman-Ordeberg, MD, DeoDoc expert

 

Panthenol

Panthenol is one of the best products for irritated and sensitive skin, razor burns, and shaving bumps. Panthenol is made to treat and cure insect bites, poison ivy, sunburn, and even diaper rash. It is a skin protectant with anti-inflammatory properties, which doctors love to recommend often. Panthenol is one of the first products applied after laser treatments, when the skin may get red and itchy, with a burning sensation. 

 

Natural moisturizers

Apply natural moisturizers to treat both shaving rash and razor bumps. It will keep the skin moisturized, and protect the skin from itchiness, redness, and swelling. Aftershave products are good moisturizers and can be applied to dry skin.
“Razor burn is often caused by not using products with emollients like shaving cream or gel. Emollients, an ingredient in a moisturizer that keeps skin soft, smooth and hydrated, which is important because when you shave, you are not just getting rid of hair – you are also stripping away the outermost layers of skin. Using products containing emollients while shaving protects and moisturizes skin, thus decreasing the chance of skin becoming irritated, causing a razor burn,” says Hadley King, MD, a board-certified dermatologist in New York.

 

 

To sum up

While razor bumps and shaving rash can become really annoying, they generally do not cause serious health problems and can be treated at home.
We hope this guide will help you understand where to start from.

However, if the home remedies do not work, consider seeing a doctor or dermatologist for professional advice.

The purpose of hats, initially, was to cover and protect bald heads. However, the concept of wearing hats back then was different compared to now. Men with less hair or bald head were not feeling comfortable with their appearance. So, they had to wear hats to hide their heads. It was only later when more men started wearing hats as stylish accessories.

Nowadays, hats are considered a must-have accessory for any man who likes style. Men's hats are versatile, practical, and can add an accent to any look. 

Bald or not, a hat is an accessory that any man has in his wardrobe, however, a shaved head has some specificities that need to be taken into account when buying or wearing a hat.

In this article, we would like to discuss the main factors to consider when choosing a hat for bald men according to face shape and many other factors and reveal the trending and cool hats for men of 2023.

How to find the right hat for a bald head according to the face shape?

While a hat is a common accessory most of us have, it is hard to choose one when there is a large variety of styles, shapes, and forms. The important thing to remember is that the type of hat for each person will heavily depend on the face shape and hairstyle (bald in our case). So we’ve come up with a short guide that would help make the right choice for you based on your face shape below:

Long 

A long-shaped face is noticeably longer. The forehead, cheekbones, and chin are equal in width, and the chin is a bit round.

It is recommended to wear cowboy hats, sunhats, wide brims, or hats that cut across the forehead to visually shorten the effect of a long face. 

Round   

A round-shaped face is like a square-shaped face with softer angles. Fedora or cloche hats will work best for round faces. Leaning toward these hats styles works best here since they visually make your face look longer.

Square

A square-shaped face has width around the forehead, cheekbones, and jaw parts.

With the square face, floppy and wide brims can go best. A cloche is also great for this type of face shape. The square face has a strong jawline, which can look exaggerated due to angled hats; that is why angled hats are not recommended if you have a square-shaped face.

Oval

An oval-shaped face is slightly longer, more similar to the shape of an egg, and the cheekbones are a bit wider than the jaw and forehead; they are rounded.

Here the situation is easy; bald men with the oval face have versatility in the choice of hats, as the oval-shaped face goes nearly with any hat style.

Dimond

A diamond-shaped face is wider around the top of the head and has a narrow jawline. The best option for the diamond-shaped face is pull-on or pork pie.

What do bald men need to consider when choosing a hat for their bald heads?

Comfort - You need to pay close attention to the size and the material of a hat because comfort is key when you wear a hat for a couple of hours. So when choosing a hat, consider whether it's comfortable for you to wear it and make sure the size is a good fit and especially the interior material is not synthetic, to avoid sweating and irritation.

Latest trends - Whether you like it or not, a hat is a fashion accessory, and sure before buying one, you’d want to keep up with the latest fashion trends. You can always get inspired by trends and incorporate them into your everyday look. For instance, recently 90’s style has become very popular among youth. As a result, many young people started to experiment with vintage clothing: classic leather jackets, oversized flannels, baggy jeans, etc. The same applies to hats. So check our style guide for 2023 to make sure your look rocks!

Why do men go bald? Balding Statistics

Let’s start with some statistics on the causes of baldness. In fact, about 40% of men have noticeable hair loss by the age of 35. Most of them notice they start losing hair in their early 20s.

If you are lucky enough not to have the “bald gene” in your DNA, either lose your hair because of hormonal changes, then follow your nutrition and keep calm because poor nutrition and stress are among other reasons that cause baldness.

Is bald attractive? Bald vs. Balding!

It’s always subjective but let’s now find out if being bald is attractive and what are the common traits that bald men share.

It would be fair to say that high testosterone levels in men’s organisms are highly correlated with the risks of going bald. Dihydrotestosterone or DHT is found in skin, hair follicles, and the prostate. It is the derivative of testosterone, and it can lead to hair loss depending on the hair sensitivity to it. That’s why when women are asked “is bald attractive” they tend to answer that bald men are much stronger, more brutal, more masculine, and powerful.

Fun fact: If you’re a sapiosexual, you are most likely to like bald men, too!

A study at the University of Saarland found that bald men tend to be seen as more intelligent and wiser by women. But what’s the reason to think so? Is that because bald men might have lost their hair due to their extraordinary intellectual abilities? Or is that because bald men accept the philosophy of “Less is More” instead of pretending to be someone else? Anyways, being bald is often perceived as being more mature, and that’s another reason why being bald is a sign of intelligence for women.

There's one catch, though. You have to be completely bald for the sexy perception to apply because men with bald spots or patterned baldness tend to be seen as weak and less attractive. To make our point, we found an interesting experiment for you.

A guy named Richard, who was going bald in his early thirties, opened two different accounts on Tinder: He posted pictures of himself where he has bald spots in the first account and the ones with hair transplants in the second one. Results: He got twice more likes in the account where he’s wearing hair transplants. The experiment showed that women are more likely to like a guy with a full head of hair rather than a balding guy.

But how about totally bald men?

Another research was conducted by a scientist named Albert E. Mannes (by the way, he was bald) at the University of Pennsylvania. The study compiled information from 59 subjects and showed the participants multiple photos of men. For example, a man with a full head of hair was shown in one photo vs. the same man with no hair on the second photo. Surprisingly, most participants reported the bald man to be more attractive compared with non-bald man.

Dating a bald guy, bald men in relationships!
“Would you date a bald guy?”

We have dived deeper and found thoughts and opinions of women on several forums such as Reddit and Quora to understand if bald is attractive for women, whether women like dating a bald guy and to get an answer to the question “Would you date a bald guy?”.

“I fell in love with a guy going bald 17 yrs ago and we’ve been married now 16 years. He’s still bald (of course) and I still love him. It’s so much more about who he is as an amazing guy than it would ever be about whether he had hair or not. And I think that’s true for anyone. It’s the self confidence, sense of humor, personality and wit that will always be it for me. Oh wait—- was I not supposed to answer this because I’m a woman?? 😂❤️✌️sorry!!”

“It's only a turn off when guys try stupid methods to cover up the fact they're balding...like comb overs and wigs.”
Source

“My husband is 26 and almost completely bald. He started going bald around 22 and lost it rapidly.
I started dating him when he was mostly bald. I didn't care. In fact, I have a major Patrick Stewart fetish, so in a way it was a plus.
I won't lie, I look at pictures of him before he lost his hair and I sometimes wish he hadn't lost it, but that's very rare. I'm sure he looks at pictures of me when I was trying to become a model and wishes I still looked like that. It's him I love, not his hair.”
Source

“I think it depends.
If someone is going bald but doesn't obsess/get self conscious about it/doesn't let if affect their confidence/the way they interact with people, I'm probably not going to see it as a major turn off.
I have a male friend who started to go bald very early, (he's in his mid 20s) and he constantly wears a baseball hat to make it less noticeable. I think this kind of attitude probably makes him less attractive to a lot of women - and thats why he's got trouble getting dates.”
Source

“Whatever you do, DO NOT do the comb-over (which I'm sure you already know). If you're worried because of dating, any woman who would hold that against you is not the right one. If you're more concerned for your confidence, I've seen many men who made the choice to tattoo their entire scalp. That is an option I guess.”
Source

“I can't speak for other women, but I personally find baldness (shaved, don't leave the few stragglers there) attractive on many men. However shallow it may be, though, when I think about the bald men I've found attractive over the years, they're all rather well-muscled - so being fit certainly helps you out.
What would make me less attracted to you is if you're obviously insecure about your baldness. Personality is a deal-breaker while baldness is not.”
Source

“31F, my boyfriend is 35M and has thinning hair. I think he is wicked sexy, and I never look at his head and think, "Man I wish you had more hair." I don't see it as a negative at all. My boyfriend is intelligent, funny and super confident, and I think that's what I find sexy about him. Also I like how his fuzzy shaved head feels.”
Source

“A few years ago my husband asked me to list all the actors I found attractive. I'm not once to crush on actors very much, so it was kind of hard but I was able to find about five.Turned out, they were all bald.
I think most women won't care, some will and some will like it. Overall, not a big deal.”
Source

“My boyfriend is balding and, while I wouldn't say I am attracted to a receding hairline, I find him handsome because of other attractive physical features (nice smile, rather fit, etc) and I have gotten to know him as a smart, kind, funny person. Nobody is perfect, so if the worst thing about you is your hair is thinning, you are probably doing pretty well and will find a woman who can see that.”
Source

“Yes, I have dated both bald men and men with hair, and I have no preference at all. This question is very subjective and it will vary from woman to woman.
But my most recent date was with a guy w/out hair and the only drawback is that they're always ready to go- it takes them no time to get ready so they will likely be waiting for you more often. But that's the only drawback in my opinion. :)”

The Final Say

Hair loss is unavoidable mostly because of genetics for a large number of people. Some of them prefer to hide it, whereas others decide to be bald and charismatic. Anyways, girls like masculinity that is maybe even easier to find in a guy who has a head deprived of hair.

Reasons for hair loss in women

There is a common myth that if you shave your hair it will grow back stronger.
To shed some light on this myth we have gathered reasons and facts to find out what causes bald spots in women's hair? There is a false belief that hair loss affects only men. The truth is that more than 50% of women struggle with hair loss and the most common cause of it is a condition called male pattern baldness in women.

Actually, hair loss can be caused by different factors and can be either permanent or temporary. Let’s break down the most common and important ones:

• Bad Diet

  When you cut down your calories and decrease the protein intake the consequence is that your body is not getting the necessary nutrients.

• Hairstyle methods and various styling products

  Make sure you do not overdo the styling because it makes your hair thinner. Allowing your hair to air dry is the best thing you can do for your hair.

• Stress

  It is no secret that stress, whether it is emotional or physical, has a huge impact on hair growth. Luckily, the condition caused by stress is temporary.

• Hormonal changes

  Causes for hormonal changes can be pregnancy, childbirth, medications, menopause etc and all of these can cause significant hair loss or bald patches (bald spots) in women's hair.

• Radiation

  Although there are rare cases of not losing hair after radiation treatments, the risk is still high for the majority to experience it.

• Medications

  Unfortunately, some medications have many side effects, which may include hair loss.

• Alcohol

  Although alcohol does not have a direct impact on hair loss, it can cause other health issues, which can lead to bad hair quality and even hair loss.

• Heredity

  Genetics play a huge role in our life.

The truth is that there are very few women's baldness remedies that can actually prevent hair loss, but, trust us, hair does not define who you are.

“I was in the shower one day, and just handfuls of hair [was] just in my hands,” Jada said. “I was just like, ‘oh my God, am I going bald?’ It was one of those times in my life that I was literally shaking with fear.” Then she spoke about changing her perspective and thinking about all of the things other people are losing. She accepted the fact that hair is something small compared to everything else she could lose.” - Jada Pinket Smith

"Shaving off my hair is so liberating. I had to do it once for a film role, but I've done it periodically, too," Cate Blanchett

"I don't feel like me unless I have my hair shaved," Sinead O'Connor. "So even when I'm an old lady, I'm going to have it."

“...I loved having a shaved head, I felt feminine and pretty still. Of course there were bad days but even when I had long hair I would have those days.People responded to me and my appearance much the same way as when I had long hair. It made me realise that what people find attractive about someone is a whole package of things not just one attribute.”

“As a bald woman I have felt more attractive than when I had hair. Not worrying about if a man is going to like my hairstyle or how I’m going to do it the next day. It’s just so stress free. ”

“ had my head shaved due to trichotillomania two years ago. It was cured about three months ago and I have decided to keep my head shaved because I feel in love with the look and it is much easier to manage than my out of control curls. Ten minutes shaving each morning beats an hour and a half washing, conditioning, drying and flat ironing. Since being bald, I am in and out of the shower in five minutes. I can't count how much money I have saved since I no longer need shampoo and conditioner….”

“I was a teenager in the 80s when punk was in. This meant that a good number of girls rocked short/shaved hair. I guess it helped that I was living in NYC. The girls with the short hair seemed cooler, edgier, and more confident to me than girls with the typical long hair. In 11th grade, I had my hair cut short enough that it spiked up on its own. I don't know if it was the most flattering look for me because I have a round face, but I liked what short hair on a girl represented to me.
I'm in my 40s now and I'm very sad when I see young girls. Everyone seems to have adopted the same long haired look….”

Also, we have found many stories that people shared during covid pandemic. This difficult period brought solitude and depression in many people’s lives, which eventually increased the urge for drastic changes in order to fill the emotional “gap”. There are also many people who are saying that they eventually found the strength to try things they always wanted, like trying different hairstyles. Both men and women cut, trimmed and even shaved their hair on their own and shared their experience on social media to inspire others.

Will I still look feminine?

What if you regret shaving your hair? We are sure that questions like “Would i look good with a shaved head as a woman?”, “What if I regret shaving my head as a woman?” are rushing through your mind right now.

Let’s be honest!

Femininity and sexuality have always been women's superpowers 😎 There is no doubt about that!
But beauty standards have drastically shifted since Ancient Greece.

Whether you are a completely shaved woman, a “buzz cut girl”, “mohawks woman”, a “side shaved girl” or a long-haired woman, you are still the same person. You are not your hair! Many women on the other hand expect that after shaving their hair bald they will immediately become very confident and bold. The truth is that it may not add you confidence because again it is just hair or in this case, it is just their absence. What really can impact your life is the fact that you did what you wanted. You shaved your hair! If you continue to do what you want every day, that is when your life will change. It is not your shaved scalp that will change your life, it is you and your everyday decisions.

Do men like bald women?

Another important question that probably will hugely impact your final decision is “Do men like bald women?” “Will I still be attractive with the new haircut?” Well naturally, people have different tastes and preferences and while many men would kill for long, silky smooth hair, the good news is there are so many who find female baldness the sexiest thing ever.

As a proof, below are some comments from users on the web:

“It’s not the norm, but I dated a guy once who asked me if I would ever consider wearing a shaved head. It was just something he liked for whatever reason.”

“YES!!! i find bald women extremely attractive!!! I think it shows confidence and I myself find it very feminine.. Whether being bald is from a medical condition or by choice, a bald woman is tops in my book”

“Did you watch Black Panther (2018) (also avengers endgame)? Remember all the Wakanda warrior women? They were almost all bald .. and …Yeah.. I’d call them hot! Just trust and honour yourself. I think that makes many women seem pretty beautiful.”

“Yes. I was quite smitten by a woman I met at Burning Man in 2012. She had a condition that caused her to lose all her hair, namely, alopecia. Her beautiful face made up for her lack of hair. I still think about that face. She got married a few years ago, as I found out on Facebook. Her husband is a very lucky man.”

“I have been on dates with three women who were bald. Two were by choice and one had alopecia universalis. I found all three extremely attractive. As much as I like women with conventional hairstyles, I'd have to say that in the last decade and a half to two, I've been seemingly more attracted to women with edgy hairstyles, which would include women with mohawks and women who shave their heads completely bald. I not only find the look extremely sexy, but the confidence it takes to sport it is a big turn-on for me. As of recent, beautiful bald women in my immediate area are like unicorns, so my chances of finding an unmarried one to date are slim to none. I would definitely date another bald woman and even settle down with one, if luck should find me.”

"There are plenty of men who date and even marry bald women. Some will even go as far as shaving their own head in support of their woman. My husband is always telling me to shave my head and just buy wigs so I can have a different hairstyle every day of the week. Beauty is not just what is seen with the eye, it is much deeper than that."

“I would definitely date a bald lady. I find them super attractive and the confidence is a big turn on for me. I really like the bald / shaved head ladies that have tattooed their scalp.”

“Hell yes. My wife shaved her head a few years ago and i begged her to stay that way. She did for a while and even went smooth a few times, that looked even better. I asked her to stay that way and even considered electrolysis to stay smooth. She seemed committed to stay that way but changed her mind unfortunately. Recently she confessed why. That if she stayed bald, she would have to get it tattooed. Again I couldn't see a problem but she was worried just how far she may go. Since then she wears a septum ring and I said it would compliment a shaved head. Fingers crossed.”

The unique appearance and confidence of shaved headed woman is what catches the eye and that is truly amazing.

Let’s also see when did women start shaving?

 

In ancient Egypt, you could see women with shaved hair because pharaohs (both women and men) were shaving their hair. In fact, they even used rings to change the shape of their head, in order to look like their Gods.

Cleopatra, one of the most beautiful and powerful women in history, used to shave all her hair as well

 

 

It is interesting that in Greek culture the situation was completely different. Hair was considered a source of life that is why women grew their hair very long and used different ribbons and wreaths to style their hair.

During the 17-18 centuries, because of bad living conditions and lack of neatness, people had severe skin conditions, bad smell and hair loss. In order to cover those things, people searched for solutions such as wigs, make-up and perfume, which eventually became a beauty standard today.

Luckily today beauty standards are shifting and many women become the “shaved hair girl” by their own choice. Due to today’s efforts to change the perception of beauty, there will be a day when female bald headshave or a buzz cut will not be worth writing an article about, since “female bald headshave” would be a completely ordinary thing.

 

To sum up, whether you want to save time, urge drastic changes or fight hair loss, experiment with your hair in whatever way you like! You are the same person with or without hair.
You don't need acceptance to be happy.
Embrace yourself.
Don’t look out to others, be your own role model and inspire others.
You are beautiful, and you are the one to brighten your life.

Be Bold to be Bald !!!

Is Baldness Hereditary? Will you be bald if your father is? Everything you need to know about hair genetics and where does the bald gene come from!

While women experience hair loss at some point in their life, men are at a higher and greater risk of going bald. For women, the primary reason is usually hair thinning and loosening which can be easily covered with long hair, not to mention the privilege of wearing wigs, changing the haircut or using hair accessories. However, men are different and when it comes to male baldness, there are not so many remedies. 

Throughout our article, we are going to break down these topics:

• If My Dad Is Bald Will I Go Bald?
• Why do men go bald and how to detect it?
• How to cope with balding: 4 reasons you shouldn’t worry about bading

If My Dad Is Bald Will I Go Bald? 

What is the baldness gene? “Does male baldness come from the mother's side?” “If my dad is bald will I be bald?”
 

So, which parent determines hair loss? How does Balding genetics Work? and How to know if you will go bald?

The baldness gene is dominant and is inherited from the father to the son, however, through the mother. Baldness is a sex-limited trait and can be transmitted in case the inheritance is duplex. In this case, women’s genes are considered recessive, meaning the trait of their genes is masked by the dominant trait. Breaking it down, even more, women can transfer this gene to half of their children, however, if you're male there’s a chance that you’ll go bald. For females receiving this gene most of the time means that she’lll become a carrier of the baldness gene just like her mother. Thus, a father that has shown signs of baldness can transfer it to his children through their mother, and usually, this is more visible in male children, than in females. 

So if you want to blame someone for going or being bald, blame both of your parents.

Baldness gene inherited from mother! Myth or truth?

For many years, people believed that the baldness gene runs on the mother’s side. There is an androgen receptor gene which is located on the X chromosome, and many hair genetic researches suggest that this gene is one of the causes for baldness. As this X-linked baldness gene is located on the X chromosome and the latter is inherited only from the mother it caused the misunderstanding that the baldness is passed down from the mother. In other words, since it was believed the primary baldness gene was on the mother’s side X chromosome that would be transferred to the son, men going bald receive the baldness gene from their mother and if there’re many bald men on the mother’s side, there’s a high chance that the son will also be bald. However, this is a misconception, as scientists haven’t yet found all of the genes responsible for baldness. 

“If my dad is bald will I go bald?”

As you may already know, the X chromosome is not the only thing responsible for baldness! Scientists have found that numerous other genes scattered around your other chromosomes can be the reason for baldness. That is to say, even if you have no bald relatives on both sides, your father can still transfer you some baldness genes. Let’s take the example of hair follicles. Follicles (the anchors that hold each hair) are made of cells called hair follicle cells. If they are damaged or harmed somehow, new hair won’t grow out and your hairline will gradually thin out. So, the genes responsible for these hair follicles are also important as all these genes work together and are all responsible for healthy hair growth. To sum up, if you have an X-linked baldness gene or your father is bald, the chances are that you will get bald. Moreover, if you have some of the other genes responsible for baldness, you are even more likely to lose your hair. It is worth mentioning though, that there are many blind spots in this sphere of research, and scientists might surprise us any day with a new revolutionary discovery in genetics. 

Does balding skip generations?

Baldness can of course skip generations! If you have bald relatives on both sides of your family tree the chances are high you will be too. However, if the baldness shows up only on one side,  it’s highly possible the MPB gene will skip not only you but also your siblings. This is how the recessive gene works.

Why do men go bald and how to detect it?

What Causes Baldness: If you have these preconditions, there’s a high chance that you will go bald

The most common factors causing baldness

• MPB - One of the most common causes for baldness is Male Pattern Baldness. MPB can be inherited from either side of a person's family and it affects 98.6% of men and 64.4% of women. 
• Lifestyle - Poor nutrition, strong diets for weight loss, alcohol, stress and smoking can cause baldness.
• Treatments and medical conditions  - some medical conditions, and long-lasting treatments can lead to hair loss.
  
  

Male Baldness Pattern: What is it and who is at risk?

At what age do men go bald? Usually, most men will experience some type of baldness after their thirties. Nonetheless, there are more and more cases of young people going bald in their 20’s.
Hair loss usually is a gradual process and many people miss early signs of balding. However, losing hair does not always mean that you’re going to be bald in the future. Normally, people shade 50-200 hair per day. However, losing more than this average can be a sign of poor diet, stress, hormonal changes or a result of taking aggressive medications, which can provoke baldness in the future. In order not to miss the first alerts, every man should look out for the signs of balding as early as in his twenties.

3 Types of Male Baldness Pattern: How to detect Early Signs of Balding

To successfully detect signs of balding you need to know about these three types of male hair loss referred to as Male Baldness Pattern. 

Your hairline is receding and the hair is thinning on top 
Male Pattern Baldness can have different patterns of hair loss in men. The most common one is when men start noticing receding hairline on their foreheads and bald spots on the crown. It usually starts from the corners of your hairline and goes back giving off the impression of tower formation. Additionally, the hair on the top starts getting thinner and finer. If you want to detect the receding hairline, you’d want to compare your current hairline with the one you had a couple of years ago. Just check your old photos. If you notice a receding hairline, “a tower formation” or an “M” hairline which you didn’t have a couple of years ago and your scalp becomes more visible it likely means that you’re balding.

You Notice Patchy Bald Spots on Your Head 
Not everyone loses hair in full or in the same patterns as others. Patchy bald spots are also common and it’s one of the types of Male Baldness Pattern. Most of the time, at the early stages, men feel unusual itchiness and pain in these spots on the scalp, for no apparent reason. Usually, it’s one of the first signs of going bald. In order not to miss these early signs, take some time to examine your hair. Look in the mirror and see if there are any parts that seem to have thinner hair than the other parts. It’s important to understand the difference between thin and fine hair here. If you have fine hair it means that in a spot you might have lots of hair but they’re fine and give off the impression as if you have lost some hair. On the other hand, when your hair is thin it means there isn’t much density on that part of your scalp.

How to Cope With Balding: 4 Reasons You Shouldn’t Worry About Balding

Dealing with balding may be psychologically hard for many men. Throughout our lives, we are used to seeing ourselves with lots of hair and we think that it's an inseparable part of our identity. What we are missing is that balding is very common and it doesn’t make you stand out in the crowd for better or worse. Besides, here are 5 quite important points why being bald is even better.

• You Save More Money

  Going to the barbershops can be quite expensive, especially when you want a good haircut and hairstyling. The average amount of money spent on a male haircut is €22.74, in case these haircuts are simple scissors-to-hair. Once you go bald you won’t need to go to the barbershops once in a while for a haircut and hairstyling. You can save up to €400 per month by simply going bald.

• Women Love Bald Men

  As mentioned previously, balding isn’t uncommon and if you’re bald it doesn’t make you stand out from the crowd. However, what it does, it changes people's perception and first impression of you. Many researchers have agreed on the fact that bald men look extremely dominant, fearless, confident,  fierce and women LOVE IT. What women don’t like is unconfident men, who rather stick onto little hair and try to hide the fact that they’re going bald. Believe it or not, people see it and it’s better to shave it off and rock your confident look!
  Still in doubt? See what women have to say about bald men:

  Users from Quora and Reddit

“It doesn't bother me at all. I much prefer a guy that'll shave his hair off and go bald than try and pretend they still have hair with an awful haircut or dodgy toupée to hide it, bald men can look sexy so if you're bald own it.”

“Bald men with facial hair look best. If you are going bald, admit it and just shave it off.”

“I’m partial to bald men. Verrry sexy. God only made so few perfectly shaped noggins and those belong to the bald men of the world! I love when balding men own up to it and cut it short or shave it off. Embrace!! Find the women that dig and never look back. Wear it well! 🙂🙂🙂”

“Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, Jason Stratham, LL Cool J, Taye Diggs... I could go on. All super hot. The most important thing is not to try the combover. When it starts noticeably receding, own it and cut the rest off/ super short. Certainly works for Bruce Willis.”

“I like me a bald-headed man in a nice tailored suit. Or a uniform. Or a tight pair of jeans. Or...anything.”

• You Save Time on Hairstyling

  For better or worse, your head looks the same all the time. You take a shower, you have the same hairstyle, you take a nap, you have the same hairstyle, whatever you do, one thing is ensured; nothing can mess up your hair. But does it mean bald men are limited to one look only? Absolutely NOT, bald men can rock different styles of beards for bald heads.
  Also, once you go bald you’ll see you have a large choice of accessories to style your dome: try glasses, scarfs and hats or even head tattoos, to add a pinch of individuality to your new look.
  If still in doubt, check out these tips for bald men on how to create a winning appearance.
  

• Better Sooner Than Later

  Most of the time we try to stick to the little hair that’s left, using creams, shampoos and other products, in hopes that hair will grow back. But if the balding process has already started, there’s no turning back. There’s no evidence that these products will improve hair growth, but there's evidence that balding is permanent. So, it’s better to shave the hair off and rock the bald confident look than wait for the hair to grow back. The first time head-shaving might be stressful, but it can be fun too! There are lots of DIY shavers nowadays that are very easy to use. If your hair is long, you should trim it first and use a DIY shaver or a razor. You can also use head shaving cream for the smoothest and cleanest shave.

To sum up we have found out that there are many misconceptions, misunderstandings on baldness genetic inheritance. We have also confirmed that there are three main patterns of male baldness and each one has its own distinct signs that help you to know if you will go bald. As for the heredity of baldness we have found out that both parents play a major role in the baldness gene and hope we have answered to the "Will you be bald if your father is?" question. So, how to know if you will go bald, the short answer is, if your dad is bald there’s a high chance that you’ll be bald as well. But luckily going bald is nothing more than transforming into a greater man. Women love it, men respect you, and there shouldn’t be anything that can hold you back from shaving your hair off! Be confident in your new journey and good luck!

To apply the shaving cream you will need a shaving mug and a shaving brush or you can apply the cream with just your hand. Of course, there are several benefits of using a shaving brush: it softens the hair, lifts them, and exfoliates the skin preparing for a smooth, safe, and painless shave.


Follow these 5 simple steps to apply the shaving cream properly:

1. Absorb the shaving brush in warm water
With the first step, you should soak the shaving brush in warm water or just hold it under the running water for 30 seconds.

2. Get your head saturated with warm water
To get a soft and smooth shave, we recommend getting your hair saturated with warm water. It will soften your hair and skin, preparing for an extremely close, and silky shave.

3. Apply the shaving cream on the shaving brush
Now you should apply the shaving cream onto the shaving brush or on your hand. The amount of shaving cream used depends on the thickness of your hair and in most cases, approximately three-quarters of an inch of cream is enough.

4. Whip the shaving brush in the shaving mug
You need to get the shaving cream into a rich lather, thus your 4th step should be whipping the shaving brush in the shaving mug.

5. Apply the shaving cream
And the last step will be applying the shaving cream to the area you are going to shave. As mentioned above, you can apply it either with a shaving brush or with the palm of your hand and make sure you will do it thoroughly.

Finally, the most important thing is consistency. Choose what works the best for you and use our charts to see which razor gives the best results with which type of shaving cream. The aftermath of the shaving is equally important, so make sure your care routine for your shaved head is correct and consistent as well.

Historically, many diverse cultures practised and still practise head shaving for different reasons. Even though the same thing was practised differently from culture to culture and for various grounds, there was one idea that was common for most of these cultures; less of hair, more of a man!

Now back to our times, people seem to consider the idea of shaving their head during the lockdown more than ever. Whether it’s a sign of going back to our roots, a spiritual sign of new beginnings, or just boredom, the fact is that more and more people are thinking about shaving their heads, and we are totally loving it! In fact, “Shaved Head” has become one of the most often used words in the search engines and social media channels during the coronavirus outbreak. The popularity of this and many other similar keywords have jumped from bottom to the top since thousands of people are thinking of going bald while being in compulsory isolation and want to know everything about head shaving.

Why do people shave their heads in the lockdown?  

Day by day, more and more people decide on shaving their heads while being in quarantine due to the situation caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19). The reasons are different: barbershops and hair salons continue to be closed, no one leaves their houses and people are bored. Some people simply want to experiment with their haircut, others are just curious about what they would look like bald and the lockdown is a perfect opportunity to find it out since no one would see the change for a few more weeks. Also, many people being unable to cut their hair by themselves, made the decision to go for a shaved head look since it’s much easier to maintain. 

Thousands of men and women shared their newly shaved head look via social media channels.

Jason Hankins from the University of Houston went bald and tweeted on the 6th of April:

“Social distancing got me so bored  I shaved my head lol”.

Another, quite praiseworthy and humane campaign has started on Instagram lately. People are shaving their heads as a part of a charity, trying to raise money to show their support and respect for the generous work the NHS (National Health Service) does during the coronavirus pandemic.

“The government is telling us all to stay at home unless essential while they tackle this ongoing and unpredictable emergency.

How to tell if you look good bald? A super-easy 10-second test

If you are among the curious ones and consider the new haircut, here’s a lifehack to find out if bald will suit you. One of the easiest ways to know whether you will look good with a shaved head is a measurement discovered by John Frieda. After a long research, she found out which jawbone looks better with short hair or with a bald head. For this measurement, you will need a mirror, a ruler and a pencil. 

Let’s start! 

1. Stand in front of the mirror so that you can see the side of your face
2. Hold the pencil horizontally under your chin 
3. Put the ruler vertically under your ear
4. Now measure the distance from your ear to pencil

That’s it! If the distance between your ear and the pencil is less than 2.25 inches, you can go for your quarantine haircut without any doubt, you’ll rock it!

The Bottom Line

Being deprived of going to the barber’s once or twice in a month as we were used to, most of us will eventually have that intractable messy hair problem and this is a matter of time. 

Whether you like it or not, you will finally have to make the decision: either shave your hair off and make your life much easier or experiment with your hair trying various haircuts. 

For this and many other reasons mentioned above, the number of men and women shaving their heads in quarantine is continually growing! And this is how a shaved head is becoming or has already become the coronavirus pandemic symbol.

Many of us have always had the desire to know what we would look like with a shaved head and the lockdown just gave a convenient excuse to do it!

If you are balding at 20s and don’t know how to cope with it, you definitely need to read this!

We will help you to get answers to the following questions:

Is it normal to lose hair in your 20s?

Going bald at 20 or in your teens may come gradually and it normally starts with thinning hair or a receding hairline. But is it normal for hair to thin in your 20s? One of the main causes of going bald in your early 20s is believed to be Male Pattern Baldness.  This genetic condition, also called Androgenic alopecia, affects both men and women of different ages. Men being in the state of MPB can suffer from hair loss as early as at their 20s or even at their teens. This is a widespread and quite normal situation. 

Still and all, the causes of baldness are very individual and, in many cases, people are affected by hair loss as a result of bad and unhealthy habits. Thus, we will rebound to the individual reasons for hair loss later in this article, to clarify, whether balding is normal in certain circumstances or not. 

 

What percentage of men goes bald at 20s? 

Have you noticed that men started to lose hair sooner than before? Hair loss and receding hairline have become a widespread issue nowadays, which many of us try to deal with.  Let’s look at some statistics!  “What age do men go bald?” - Normally the likelihood of hair loss mainly increases with age. In the chart below you can see the proportion of men with noticeable hair loss at different ages:

As per a self-reported survey of 4,000 students at Tsinghua University in Beijing, nearly 60% of the participants reported they were losing a significant amount of hair. What is even more noteworthy, 40% of the participants reported they were quite aware of their receding hairline, while 25% of the respondents didn’t even notice the hair loss until they were told by family members or friends. Which is quite alarming as by the time people at their 20s notice the hair loss they already have a condition.
It’s time to clarify what percentage of men go bald in their 20s. NHS states that 25% of men suffering from male pattern baldness (MPB) start losing hair before they reach the age of 20-21. Moreover, it affects around 50% of men by the age of 50.

Alopecia Areata, another type of hair loss, which causes bald patches on the scalp, is very prevalent in people at the age of 15 to 29. On average, it affects every 2 people out of 1000 in the UK.
Let’s also take a look at some interesting statistics regarding ethnicity, race and baldness to find out what race gets bald most. It’s clear that male pattern baldness can affect all races and ethnicities. However, there are some differences. For instance, Caucasian men have recorded the highest rates of MPB, followed by African Americans, Chinese and Japanese men. Native American males’ baldness rates are among the lowest in the world. 

Moreover, here are 11 countries with the baldest population, according to the statistics. 

Baldness rates by country:

1. The Czech Republic ranks first in the list of these countries with 42.79 % of men going bald
2. Spain has the second-highest number - 42.6 %
3. Germany - 41.2 %
4. France - 39.24 %
5. The UK has the fifth-highest count - 39.23 %
6. The USA - 39.04% bald or balding rate
7. Italy - 39.01%
8. Poland - 38.34%
9. Netherlands - 37.93%
10. Canada - 37.42%
11. Russia - 32.39%

 

Why are you losing hair in your 20s and can you reverse balding?   

As stated before, there are numerous individual causes of hair loss in young men which can lead either to a permanent or temporary hair loss. In some cases, temporary hair loss can be stopped, while there is no way to reverse the permanent balding. 

Want to know “Why do men go bald?”, we have identified some of the most common causes of hair loss below:

1. Male Pattern Baldness/ Hereditary 

MPB is one of the main causes of going bald young. MPB can be inherited from either side of a person's family and it affects 98.6% of men and 64.4% of women. In this genetic condition, men start suffering hair loss as early as in their teens and 20s. This is a normal situation and, unfortunately, there is no cure for MPB. Consequently, MPB causes permanent loss of hair.

2.  Poor Nutrition and diet

Poor nutrition, crash diets and low levels of biotin, iron, magnesium, calcium, zinc, Vitamin A, B-complex vitamins can lead to hair loss and receding hairline. Thus, make sure you eat healthy food and take enough vitamins to improve the quality of your hair. 

3. Weight loss 

In certain cases, weight loss can lead to temporary hair loss. This condition is called Telogen Effluvium when physical stress forces the hair follicles to move into an inactive stage.

4. Stress  

Thinning hair and hair loss can also be brought on by stress. Young people are under high pressure these days which can bring to long-term stress. A lot of graduate students, for example, get temporary baldness during their studies. Stress-related hair loss can be temporary but it can also speed up other forms of hair loss, such as Male Pattern Baldness.

5. Alcohol

Immoderate use of alcohol is another cause for balding at 20. Doctors recommend considering how much you drink and keeping alcohol use to moderate levels. Usually, this form of hair loss is also considered to be temporary.

6. Smoking

Statistically, two-thirds of all smokers in the UK start smoking in their teens and it’s not a coincidence, that many doctors talk about the influence of smoking on hair loss in men in their early 20s. 

7. Medical condition

Several medical conditions such as thyroid disease, alopecia areata (an autoimmune disease that attacks hair follicles) and scalp infections like ringworm are also believed to be a cause of hair loss. After a successful treatment, there is a chance your hair will grow back.

 

As you can see, the Male Pattern Baldness is one of the most widespread forms of hair loss. MPB causes permanent hair loss, which can not be reversed. However, this is a normal situation unlike other forms of hair loss which are connected with stress, smoking, immoderate usage of alcohol, poor nutrition and diets, fast weight loss and certain medical conditions. In order to understand the exact cause of your baldness, it is highly recommended to consult a doctor. 

 

What are the stages and signs of balding at 20? 

Hair loss is a continuous process and it’s quite normal to lose between 50 and 100 hair every day. However, there are some signs of balding at 20 (they are the same at the age of 18, 20, 22 etc), which will help  understand whether you are losing a normal amount of hair or are going bald:

1. Gradual thinning

Hair thinning, which is the minor to moderate hair loss,  appears on top of the head and around the temples. As a result, these parts appear to be thinner spots on your head. This may or may not be a sign of baldness caused by Male Pattern Baldness. However, it happens gradually, thus, in case you notice it sooner, you’ll be able to pinpoint the causes and have a successful treatment in case it’s not MPB condition.

2. Patchy bald spots

This form of hair loss normally affects only the scalp. You will notice sudden bald spots in specific areas, normally on your head, the cause of which is normally an autoimmune reaction.

3. Sudden loosening of hair

An overall hair thinning appears and not bald patches.

4. Full-body hair loss

Some medical treatments, such as chemotherapy for cancer, can result in the loss of hair all over your body, but this is a temporary form of hair loss and the hair grows back after some period of time.

5. Patches of scaling

This can be accompanied by broken hair, redness and swelling.

 

These were 5 main signs of going bald and if you are also interested in the stages of balding, here you go! 

According to the Hamilton–Norwood scale, an assessment scale used by doctors to measure the severity of baldness, Male Pattern Baldness has 7 main stages:

Stage 1. In the first stage of MPB, there is no significant recession of the hairline.

Stage 2. In this stage, a slight recession of a hairline is noticed around the temples.  

Stage 3. A deep recession becomes visible around the temples, which resembles M, U or V shape. 

Stage 3 Vertex. A severe hair loss appears on the top of the scalp (the vertex). 

Stage 4. The 2 areas gradually become larger than the previous stage, but they are still separated with a band of hair. 

Stage 5. The band of hair, connecting the balding areas, starts to narrow and creates a hairline called “horseshoe”. 

Stage 6. Only very thin hair remains on the crown. 

Stage 7. In the last stage, the top of the scalp is completely bald and only a band of fine hair is noticed around the side of the head.

 

How to cope with going bald? 

Now that you have learnt all the necessary information about the causes, stages and signs of hair loss, you are most probably interested in how to cope with balding. Normally, for most of the people, who just started to lose hair, the most preferable resolution is reversing balding. But, before trying any type of treatment, it is appropriate to see a doctor in order to get proper professional advice and avoid possible health problems in the future. 

Unfortunately, in many cases, hair loss can’t be reversed and you should make a decision: either hide the baldness or shave the hair off and cope with hair loss at a young age. There are some well-known ways of hiding the fact of losing hair, such as wearing hats or keeping your hair short, but none of them is a permanent solution in this state. Besides, women proved many times embracing baldness looks far better than embracing a comb-over. Being confident is the key to deal with balding!

Let’s see what women advise their dads, friends and boyfriends going bald:

Users from Reddit and Quora

“It almost always looks 100% worse than if they just accepted the fact that they're bald and either shaved their head or rolled with it. I have never seen a dude with a combover that looked good, most guys who go the wig/toupee route tend to get super cheap ones that look super cheap, and those hair fiber spray things just look ridiculous and weird. Nothin wrong with being bald. Just be bald.”

“Bald man here, I think it's tragic. Just shave it all off and embrace the new you. Or don't try to hide it and rock your inner Patrick Stewart. My bald friends that do this all wear beanies and hats ALL the time. I think they're not fooling anyone but themselves. I get it though, it's not easy to come to terms with it.”

“I don't really hold it against them, but some methods are objectively worse than others. My dear father, for example, had a combover for about 3 decades until my mother convinced him to give it up and just look like an old dude.” 

“They should do what they need to do to feel comfortable with themselves. Everyone wants to feel good about their appearance”

“Honestly, I'd never judge a guy for that. Balding is in genetics and if reversing/stopping makes you confident and happy, I'd cheer you on. Hell, if my partner had this problem, I'd even offer to pay for some of it even though I am absolutely certain he could rock the bald look with ease.”

“ When I was younger I didn’t find bald men attractive and now that I’m older I do. Obviously this isn’t for every woman, we all have different tastes.”

“We're not blind. Own whatever hair you have left. Style your head to make it look good. If that means a clean shave, that's fine. Need to cut it super short- great. Combovers are not for anyone under 50. I'd rather have my other half have next to no hair than try to hide the fact he's losing his hair.”

“I can't say I relate to that specifically, but I definitely can relate to feeling self-conscious about something about myself and trying to correct it. I know some guys who've gone through this and they honestly look tons better without hair. At the end of the day they should do what's gonna make them feel most comfortable in their body, but I don't think embracing the baldness is as bad as they might think it is.”

“Women do the exact same thing, but on a different level. I spend money on hair extensions. Some people think it's stupid, I do it for self-esteem.”

“If a guy wants to use Rogaine or get hair transplants, I'm not judging. That's all fine. If he wants to shave it all off, that's fine too. I'm not so much into the middle-ground solutions: combover, wig, or hair fibers. It's way too much daily maintenance and fuss. Not being able to jump in a lake or swimming pool and risk messing up the 'do, not being able to pop on a bike helmet and go for a cruise, having to shelter from any significant amount of wind or rain... that's no fun. I think you just gotta make a decision either way. Either fix it for real with hair transplants or hormone blockers or buzz it off.”

Men’s advice:

“Stanley Tucci, Moby, Billy Corrigan, Patrick Stewart, Gandhi, John Malkovich. All bald men without huge muscles or testosterone. All look great. there are MANY more. it's not what you have or what you haven't, it's what you do with it.”

“What you need to realize is that being bald IS YOU. You are a bald man. You sound like you need to accept who you really are, and not what you think you are or who you want to be.”

“Some people here will tell you to compensate by working out, or being financially successful, or dressing better. You don't necessarily have to do that. Just learn to be comfortable in your own skin and it will show. Deep down women are attracted to confidence, not your hair or money.”

“Take balding as a message from the universe that you will look better if you just shave off all those scrabbly remains an go au natural !”

“I wonder if they have mirrors in their house. Virtually everything that can be done to hide balding looks way worse than balding ever could, and in my general experience surgeries/treatments are really ineffective, but men always seem to think they've been effective (which again makes me wonder about the mirrors). I also kind of don't get it? Lots of very sexy men, who are largely thought to be sexy by society at large, are bald so I don't quite get where the insecurity comes from. Of course, lots of not-sexy men are also bald, but it's not as though the baldness is why they're not sexy. It's not like Danny Devito would suddenly become a heartthrob if he had a head full of hair.”

“I'll say this. Shaving your head early in age can be great because now you get to develop your confidence, persona, character as is, rather than have to make this big change later in life. Right now, you are amorphous, and can grow up as a confident, stylish, interesting man where your hair is set - rather than have your hair deteriorating slowly with a persona and image already super established.”

“Dude, I'm the quiet, introvert, and dorky type myself, and I love going bald since the start of the year. Wish I had done so a lot sooner. I feel a lot better about myself as it has eliminated one of my biggest insecurities about my physical appearance, and has been an improvement to my self-esteem. Honestly, I would say don't worry about the bald stereotypes, and just do you. Help define what it means to be bald rather than it defining you.”

 Frequently Asked Questions

In the last part of our article, we will answer the most common questions we get.

How long does it take to go bald?

This is very individual, however, on average it takes 15-25 years to go completely bald. Only in extreme cases, men go bald fast within 5 years. 

Is balding genetic?

The hereditary factor in baldness is more dominant on the woman's side. This is because the androgen receptor is on the X chromosome and a man inherits the X chromosome from mom. However, other researches also state that men whose father is bald are more likely to develop MPB (Male Pattern Baldness). 

If my hair is receding will I go bald?

If you have the signs mentioned above or if you are in a particular stage of balding according to Hamilton–Norwood scale you are most probably suffering Male Pattern Baldness and will lose your hair gradually and slowly. 

Is balding a sign of low testosterone?

James B. Hamilton’s studies showed that high levels of men hormone called testosterone can lead to baldness.

According to this very popular theory, bald men have higher levels of the men hormone testosterone. This makes them more masculine and increases sex drive. 

When to shave your head if going bald

The sooner, the better! Women recommend men shave their heads when they notice receding hairline and bald patches on the top of the scalp. Women appreciate the confidence in men and prefer it when men shave their heads instead of hiding the fact of losing hair.  

Can hats make you go bald?

“Does wearing a hat make you go bald?” - the answer is no! 

Normally, hats or caps can’t cause alopecia, since they don’t provide too much tension. However, if the hat is significantly tight, it can lead to broken hair follicles. As a result, some bald patches may appear which will be temporary, and the hair will grow back once the stress is removed.

 

The Final Say!

We do really hope we managed to answer all your questions and helped you to make the right decision! Don’t be scared of going bald at 20, 25, 30. It is not the end of the world, you are perfect just the way you are, so just embrace yourself and do whatever you think and feel is right!

Electric shaver vs razor: what is the difference and which one is better? Certainly, each one has its pros and cons, so we decided to dig deeper to find the answer.

Our small research will help you discover:

• What is the difference between electric and manual razors?

• All possible pros and cons of electric shavers and manual razors

• Your expectations and needs

• 12 proven reasons to choose an electric shaver

What Is The Difference Between Electric and Manual Razors?

The first prototypes of razors were identified back in the Bronze age:

Made of bronze or obsidian, these shaving tools have significantly changed in their shape and size, but in terms of usage, the mechanism is quite similar to modern straight razors. Over the past centuries, only 3 main types of shavers have been invented: straight, disposable and electric razors. Let’s now unveil the difference between them!

Electric Shaver vs Razor: What is the functional difference?

Below you will find the main differences in the basic functionality between manual and electric shavers:

All Possible Pros and Cons of Both Electric Shavers and Manual Razors

Both manual razors and electric shavers have specific advantages and disadvantages and your decision mostly depends on them. Find all the possible pros and cons of them below: 

Should I Use Manual Razor?

PROS:

• Closest shave for a longer period of time 
• Blades are easily replaced
• Usually the cheapest option available, however, their cost adds up over time
• Manual razors are easy to clean and to travel with

CONS:

• Dry shave with a manual razor is not possible 
• Shaving takes longer due to the use of grooming products such as shaving cream, foam and aftershave solutions
  
• The blades of manual razors dull very quickly and need to be replaced once every few days
• You often get nicks, cuts and ingrown hair as you might have to go over the same area several times to get the closest shave
  
• Manual razors are less versatile as they do require a wet shave and water for a painless shave
• Some manual razors are very expensive
• Short shaved hair creates a real mess around you

Should I Use Electric Razor?

PROS:

• Safe shave without nicks and cuts: Electric shavers have won over customers with trouble areas due to birthmarks, freckles, scars, acne and even those who simply cannot afford to break the skin. With electric shavers, you get a smooth shave without getting nicks and cuts, razor burn, bumps, and ingrown hair.
• Perfect for sensitive skin: safe shave without any skin irritation

• Convenient to shave on the go, in the car, whenever and wherever you wish 
• They are more versatile: you can shave facial hair, beards, moustaches, and sideburns
• The blades of electric razors are very durable and long-lasting
• Reliable companies provide manufacturer's warranty to cover up for any defects

CONS:

• Electric razors provide you with a clean shave but the closest results are possible with manual razors 
• They are heavier than manual razors and are bigger in size
• Buzzing sound while shaving, which can sometimes be disturbing 
• Initially higher investment required to purchase it (though in a long-run you actually save money)

Your Expectations and Needs 

To make the final decision you need to identify your expectations and needs. The majority of people tend to fall under one of these two categories: 

Group #1 

• You have the time and patience for a slower and more time-consuming method of shaving
• You’re confident that you can avoid cutting or nicking your skin, getting skin irritation and razor burn with the razor
• You don’t mind spending additional money on shaving cream/soap etc. 

Group #2

• You'd like need to save time and want a faster, easier, no-mess shave
• You have a spare budget to spend on advanced shaving gadgets, which would allow you to save money in the long run
• You don’t mind a little bit less thorough but a totally clean shave
  

If your expectations and needs are closer to the ones mentioned in the 1st group, you should most probably choose manual razors. Otherwise, your best choice will definitely be an electric shaver for your bald head and face!!!

12 Proven Reasons to Choose a Rotary Electric Shaver 

After you have learned everything about electric shavers and manual razors and have better understood your expectations and needs, you are ready to take that decision!

And to make it easier for you, we have highlighted 12 proven reasons to choose electric shaver:

1. Save Time 

   As a general rule, the electric shavers significantly reduce the time required to shave your face or head, thanks to the safety mechanism and advanced blade technologies. The rotary blades of your electric shaver will reduce the total shaving time at least by half and provide you with a fast shave within just a few minutes.
   
   

2. Save Money

   While the initial investment required for purchasing the shaver is higher than for conventional razor, a good quality electric shaver will serve you for years. You would simply need to consider changing the blades once every few months, to make sure the quality of the shave is not compromised.
   
   

3. Shave Wet and Dry

   Some advanced models of electric shavers give the opportunity to shave both wet and dry. This means you can save time and shave without any shaving cream or foam and even without water. Or, if you have spare time, you can enjoy the traditional wet shave. What’s more, with electric head and face shavers like Skull Shaver you can enjoy the shave even in the shower!
   
   

4. Shave On The Go

   Most of the electric shavers are super convenient to shave on the go, in the car, whenever and wherever you wish! Get to all tough to reach areas without a mirror or any other shaving supplements.
   
   

5. Shave With No Mess

6. Take While Travelling

   Another major advantage of electric shavers is the convenience of transportation, especially for travellers. The reasonable size and weight of electric head shavers allow you to use it while travelling: just pack it in its travel case and put in the suitcase to look your best anytime and everywhere!

8. Safe Shave

   Electric shavers are very safe to use with a lower risk of getting any nicks and cuts.  The sharp cutting edges of electric razor for the head, face, and beard glide smoothly over irregularities and have won over customers with trouble areas due to birthmarks, freckles, and scars.
   
   

9. No Irritation

   An electric head shaver is perfect for sensitive skin since they ensure a safe shave without any skin irritation. You may still want to give your skin an adaptation period of 2-3 weeks when switching to an electric shaver.
   
   

10. Get To Tough Areas With Ease

    Electric shavers allow better and safer access to tough areas of head and face, without compromising the quality of the shave. Most of the shavers have flexible heads which better adjust to the contours of the head for better comfort of shaving. 
    
    

11. Use Cordless or In Plug and Shave Mode

    Some electric razors can be used both cordless and in "plug and shave" mode. And the battery life indicator will let you know when exactly the shaver needs a recharge. 
    
    

12. Warranty and Money Back Guarantee

    Most of the electric shavers come with a manufacturer warranty and money-back guarantee to protect customers.

Who says bald men are less attractive or have a less winning appearance? If someone said it, it was a huge mistake! We have proven the opposite many many times and now we'll just help you make the utmost of your look by giving some helpful tips of bald men fashion.

Pay closer attention to: 

1. Upper body - The upper body of a shaved headed man looks bigger. The reason for that is the bald head which looks smaller in contrast. So, the first and utmost advice for you: avoid wearing big and loose bulky shirts.

2. Trousers - To choose the right pair of pants, make sure they are not too long and there are two or three creases only as the fabric tends to gather around your ankles. Another piece of advice for you: keep away from too baggy or very skinny trousers, neither of them look cool!

3. Wardrobe - Another helpful bald fashion tip for men: update your wardrobe at least 2 times in a year. This way you will catch up the latest trends of each season and will always look fashionable.

4. Comfort - To outrun the risk of cutting off your blood supply with clothes that are too small give your preference to the ones that are more comfortable. Remember, you will look good when you feel good!

5. Colour - Normally the hair on the head provides a contrast with the skin colour. That’s why bald man’s scalp colour is the most dominant aspect that influences his appearance. And the only way you can create contrast is with the colour of the clothes you are going to wear. Here are a few considerations to keep in mind:

Darker colours with light skin tones: Pale skin tones look great in natural colours and in darker hues as they compliment your peachy undertones. A bald man with light skin should try colours such as burnt orange or forest green, grey and brown. But avoid white and pastel colours as they will wash your complexion out.

Light-toned neutrals with medium skin tones: Medium skin tones have an olive-coloured tint. If the monotone look is not the one you are looking for, avoid colours like yellow, orange or olive undertones. The winning option for a baldie with medium skin tone will be natural light colours or royal purple, deep red, black and navy.

Bright colours with dark skin tones: Dark-skinned men with a shaved head look perfect with any colour. However, the shades of brown that resemble the skin colour might create a monotone and boring look. So, the best choice is bright colours, white and even black.

6. Patterns - Another unique solution to complete a bald man’s fashion style is wearing clothes with trendy patterns. If chosen correctly patterns will help accomplish a sinewy and expressive look of yours. Here are some of the trending patterns of 2023 you can have in mind: vertical and horizontal stripes, geometric designs, letters, words or sentences and abstract florals.

7. Age - Keep in mind one of the most important aspects in bald guy fashion: dressing your age. By making the decision and shaving your head bald you are closer to a younger appearance, so get even closer and choose clothes which will correspond to your age. If you are going bald at 20, avoid too baggy clothes, sandals with socks and other outdated trends will make you look up to 10 years older than your real age. And vice versa, too skinny clothes and teenage trends for bald men over 50 will create a strange and detached look. 

8. Occasion - Not only the age but the occasion as well needs to be taken into account when choosing clothes. One should be careful choosing outfits for special events, theatres, galas etc. Some kinds of events just require a presentable appearance and that’s where you need to meet the expectations. Continue reading to find helpful tips for creating your night out style.

9. Season - Always dress according to the weather and the season outside. Above all the men’s fashion trends your health and well being is always the most important. Besides, freshening your daily look with new pieces of clothes and accessories for each season will make your appearance even more interesting. 

10. Accessories - Accessories are a must-have for a bald man. Try some fashionable hats in the summer and beanies in the winter. To complete men’s autumn/winter fashion look a piece of a nice scarf and some gloves can be added. Wearing a pair of glasses corresponding your face shape and style is also a great idea

11. Beard - A shaved head with a nice piece of beard is an excellent combination, which you must try. A bald man with a beard is a new fashion icon these days.

12. Muscles and Tattoos - Muscles and tattoos express the manly and tough side of a man. They look crazy and wild, but at the same time masculine and sexy especially with a clean shaved head. So don’t be afraid to give it a try despite your age.

All these attributes form and compile your overall look, so choosing and combining them correctly is not so obvious sometimes! But first things first! Pick a style to match your persona. 

Some helpful bald fashion tips for creating your look

Casual clothes are all important in every bald man’s wardrobe since they are suitable for weekends, outings and hangouts with friends etc. A unique casual look for bald men is probably one of the easiest styles to create

• T-shirts or a casual shirt 

A casual t-shirt or simply a shirt of a solid colour or with a trendy print is something! Create your casual style by combining a shirt with a nice pair of jeans and the final touch could be a handsome blazer or a fine jacket. Put the emphasis on bold patterns and bright colours in order to break the monotony and fill in the absence of hair. The linen-cotton shirt with sackcloth trousers will be the next excellent choice of yours for creating a casual yet sophisticated look!

• Jeans and again Jeans!

From the 1960s onwards, jeans have become very common and today are considered to be an inseparable component of a man’s daily clothing collection. But keep in mind that neither too baggy nor too skinny ones will do. Make sure to choose the ones that are comfortable, fit well and create a flattering fashionable look.

• The final say!

Define your proportions and look leaner with a cool belt, add a cool pair of glasses and a nice cap. And most importantly, wear a pair of comfortable shoes. That’s it, the casual look is ready to roll!

 

Formalwear and Professional Look 

 image courtasey: http://bit.ly/2VHylGF

Classy formalwear is the very thing a bald man can wear to cut a dash at work or at a business meeting. Spice up your wardrobe with these considerations:

• Button-down shirts and slacks 

For a professional look, the best choice is a button-down shirt with a slack. You can play with colours, patterns, prints or breathe a new life to your look with classy fashion shoes for men and a blazer.

• Play with colours, patterns and prints

If for some reason you have already made the hardest decision to shave your head this article is a must-read for you! 

Having a shaved head has lots of benefits and is easier to maintain for sure. But you need to look after it very carefully as well. Normally, the scalp manifests differently to various weather conditions․ In the winter and on sunny days your scalp may dry out and peel due to the scarcity of humidity in the air and the active exposure of the sun rays. On the other hand, the scalp becomes shiny and oily at high temperatures. Hence, to take care of a bald head correctly, men with a shaved head need to take into account the atmospheric conditions and the state of their scalp itself. 

Further, in this blog, we will talk about the best practices for bald head maintenance depending on various weather conditions and individual characteristics of the scalp as well as try to answer the most common questions about shaved head care. 

Maintaining bald head in cold weather and on sunny days

Because of the absence of hair, the scalp may dry out and peel especially when exposed to sun and cold weather. This happens because of less humidity in the air in winter and strong UVA/UVB rays exposure in summer. These simple 13 rules will teach you how to care for a shaved head during both cold and sunny days:

1. Moisturize

First and foremost, a shaved head needs to be moist and hydrated, especially in winter when the air is dehydrated and on sunny days, when the scalp is actively exposed to the UVA/UVB rays. Using a bald head moisturizer will keep it moist, smooth, clean and will prevent any skin irritation. You can check up on moisturizers by Brickell, according to the product reviews they are really good. 

2. Drink at least 2 litres of water

Another useful tip for skin hydration is drinking at least 2 litres or half a gallon of water. 60% of our body consists of water, give or take. Since our body is prone to dehydration we ought to drink a sufficient amount of water on a daily basis, which is normally considered to be 2 litres a day. 

3. Avoid long exposure to the sun rays

The recommended daily dose of vitamin D is 600 IU (15 mcg) and the safest timeframe for getting it is before 11 am. After 12 pm the UVA/UVB rays of the sun may harm the scalp and trigger various skin disorders such as skin cancer, severe sunburns, skin ageing etc. It may also cause heat stroke and eye diseases like cataracts.  For this matter, avoid long exposure to the sun rays, especially between 12 am to 5 pm. 

4. The best sun protection for bald heads is sunscreen

If you can’t avoid the direct sunlight, the least you can do is apply a sunscreen. 

5. On sunny days, use a bald head cap

Buy a nice cap for your shaved head and a nice pair of glasses and always put it before getting out to the sun as additional protection from the harmful UVA/UVB rays. Though using a hat or a cap may cause abundant perspiration to the scalp, it will serve as supplementary protection to block out the harmful rays of the sun and will prevent various skin problems. 

6. Try wet shaving

In the winter and on sunny days your skin needs extra sources of water, one of which is a wet shave. A wet shave will not only hydrate your scalp but will also prevent skin irritation, dryness and razor bumps. You can use shaving cream, gel, foam or soap for a wet shave. But what is more important the shaver needs to be water-resistant too. 

7. Choose the right shaver

For a healthy and fresh look, one must start from choosing a well-adapted shaver. It is proven time and time again, that electric shavers are better than razors: most of them are waterproof and allow to enjoy both wet and dry shave, they do not cause skin irritation and are safe to use. Our Skull Shaver head and face shavers are the vivid examples of which: these shavers are 100% water-resistant, you can try both wet and dry shave and enjoy 90 minutes cordless use thanks to a powerful integrated battery. You can find more information about each model of head shaver in our website.

8. Don’t ditch the shampoo and conditioner

Your scalp and that tiny hair still need some care even if you are keeping your head shaved! Oil and dirt can perfectly build-up on the scalp and give an oily look to your shaved head. For this matter, we suggest using a nice piece of refreshing shampoo and finishing up your sleek look with a moisturizing conditioner. Brickell strengthening shampoo is a good choice for dry and itchy scalp. Keep in mind that soap and body wash have a drying effect, so try to keep away from them.

9. Protect your bald head with a hat or a beanie in cold weather

No matter balding in 20s or in 50s, a nice piece of a beanie or a hat for shaved heads is a real salvation in winter from extremely cold temperatures. Though the UK doesn’t really get exceptionally cold, a beanie with a piece of scarf may fulfil your everyday look.

10. Exfoliate your scalp

Dead skin cells make your head look dull and clog the pores. Exfoliating the scalp of a shaved head affects the physical appearance of your head, takes the dead skin cells, oil and dirt away and prepares the skin to an extremely close and smooth shave. 

11. Nourish the scalp with natural vegetable oils

Besides keeping the scalp moist remember to also nourish it. The best way is maintaining it with natural vegan oils such as almond, argan, castor and jojoba oil. Naissance’s 100% pure Organic Golden Jojoba Oil is a natural remedy against inflammation and many other skin imperfections. This vegan oil will nourish and strengthen your scalp and give your baldie a sleek and fresh look.

12. Warm, not hot showers

The heat from the shower will dry your skin out. Therefore, either replace hot showers with warm or thoroughly moisturize and nourish your scalp after each shower with a moisturizer for a shaved head. 

13. Avoid skincare products containing alcohol

Many of the skincare products contain alcohol, which, as we all know, causes additional dryness. That’s why we suggest giving your preference to the products not containing alcohol. 

We hope these 13 pieces of advice helped you get an answer to the initial question: “How to care for a shaved head?”. Follow them to have a nice and neat bald head and avoid any problems with your scalp!

Face shape	Definition	Picture
Oblong	A face shape with a very long and narrow bone structure
Rectangular	These face shapes are about one and a half times longer than they are wide. The cheek lines running from temple to jaw line are straight. Rectangular face shapes are similar to the oblong shape but have an angular jawline.
Round	Face shape with a wide hairline and fullness below the cheekbones.
Square	With a wide hairline and jawline.
Diamond	With a narrow chin and forehead with wide cheekbones
Triangle	A small, narrow forehead and a larger jawline.
Inverted triangle	A wider forehead and a narrower chin.

Step 2. The style and the look

If you have already identified your face shape, it’s time to determine the styles of glasses for bald men, since each frame creates its own unique style. In the table below you will learn how to choose the appropriate glasses frames for men to create your desired style and look.

Finally, summer has come and it’s time to have a break from the mundane lifestyle and prepare for the holidays. 

But hold on a minute! Have you already made your travel checklist? If yes, just read further to make sure you have not missed anything out. If not, well, we’ve done it for you. read carefully and take every single thing from this ultimate holiday packing list.

Why even do a packing list? 

While being super excited packing bags for the long-awaited trip, we tend to forget some of the most important travel items. For that exact reason, the packing checklists exist. We have created this unique summer holiday packing list to solve this common issue and to help you make the most of your holidays.

And since this is a travel checklist made specifically for bald men, you will not find any common items such as a toothbrush or phone charger. 

You might now think what is the difference between a common holiday packing list and the one specially made for bald men. The thing is that bald or shaved-headed men need to take care of their scalp very carefully, especially on sunny days. So now let’s discover some of the most important packing essentials every bald man must take with him.

What are the Top 7 travel essentials for bald men?

1. A sunscreen 

We have already talked about the importance of using sunscreen, especially for bald men: one of the most important holidays packing essentials has been and will always be sunscreen! If you really wish to enjoy your holidays, take the sunscreen everywhere with you and reapply it regularly every 40 or 80 minutes on your head to be sufficiently protected. We advise avoiding direct sun exposure since you risk having a sunburn, especially if you have just shaved your head. Your skin may also be affected by UVA/UVB rays of the sun, which can definitely spoil your holidays.

To know why to use sunscreen, how to choose the right one, how to properly use it and what are the top 10 sunscreens for a bald head in 2023 you can read our previous article.

2. A hat

Even if you use sunscreen and reapply it regularly, a hat or a cap is another must-have of your holiday packing list. The scalp gets sunburn very fast, especially the newly shaved one under the direct sun rays. When choosing your hat, try to avoid black and dark colours, as they absorb UV rays and can heat your head, resulting in fatigue and headache. Instead, give preference to white, beige and other light colours to keep your scalp cool and safe. Remember to take a nice pair of sunglasses to finalize your look!

3. A bald wipe

A bald wipe is a piece of a towel to dry and refresh your scalp when it sweats. On sunny days, even when not directly exposed to the sun, your scalp and all your body sweat very actively. The drops of a mixture of sweat and sunscreen applied on your head may roll down into your eyes and cause irritation. That's why the bald wipes exist. You can have a look at DUDE Head and Face Wipes, which will refresh your head and face throughout the day, take away the sweat and prevent from harming your eyes. 

4. A shaver

To have a well-groomed look while travelling, which women do appreciate, remember to take your shaver with you. Make sure to choose a shaver suitable to be transported and safe to be packed in a suitcase or in a backpack. Discover any of our Skull Shavers, which are perfectly adapted for travellers. They even allow a quick shave on the go thanks to the in-built vacuum system, which collects hair while shaving and ensures a mess-free shaving experience. Moreover, you can enjoy up to 90 minutes of cordless use and use it in a plug-and-shave mode in case you have forgotten to charge it. They can also be safely packed in the travel case to ensure safe and secure transportation. 

5. Shaving cream or foam

A wet shave is highly recommended particularly for a dry and itchy scalp. Therefore you absolutely need to have shaving cream, foam, gel or soap with you since after sun exposure the skin becomes very dry. Consider the Shaving Cream from Bee Bald, which is highly recommended by users, since it is light and slick and ensures an incredibly smooth shave. Make sure your shaver is water-resistant and can be used wet or dry, with shaving foam or without. All our Skull Shavers can be used both for a wet and dry shave and the upgraded models can even be used in the shower. 

6. A Moisturizing oil 

When being exposed to the sun, your scalp may dry out and peel, imposing you to regularly moisturize it. So remember to take a moisturizing oil, gel or spray with you and apply it after each shave to ensure your fresh and sleek look. Moisturizing oils should be your first choice since the effect of freshness would last longer. It is well known that bio argan and jojoba oils are perfect organic scalp moisturisers. We recommend having a look at organic jojoba and argan oils by Naissance. They are excellent moisturizers for your scalp and are very suitable to carry around due to their size and airtight packaging. What is more, being 100% pure and virgin, those vegan oils are safe to use and won’t cause any skin irritation.

7. Shampoo or a Bar Soap

Once again, the bald head scalp needs to be taken care of very carefully especially on sunny days. The scalp becomes too itchy and dry from the UV rays and needs to be nourished and moisturized while shaving, as well as after shaving, while you are under the sun and even when the sun is gone. That is why don’t forget to take a moisturizing shampoo with you to calm down the scalp after a long time being under the sun. Check CLn Shampoo for Scalp Health if you are looking for a shampoo which will eliminate flakes, unclog pores and refresh your scalp.

Here is a holiday packing list template for you

Thanks for your time and enjoy your holidays!!!

A man, who is thinking of going bald, generally takes into account some major factors before making his decision: "Do women like bald men?", “What do they say about bald men?”, “Are bald men as attractive for them as those with a head full of hair” etc. We have written this article based on the answers of hundreds of women surveyed to make it easier for you to decide whether to go for it or not!

After reading the article you will find answers to the following questions: 

 

Let’s discover the causes of hair loss and figure out the feelings of a balding man, before presenting the results of the survey.

What are the reasons for losing hair?

More than 50% of men have significant signs of hair loss at the age of 50 and it reaches 4 out of 5 men by the age of 70. Moreover, nowadays, the younger generation starts to fight hair loss at an earlier age, compared to a few centuries back. According to research conducted by the NHS, 25% of men, suffering from Male Pattern Baldness (MPB), start losing hair by the age of 20-21. The reasons for hair loss are very individual and we have mentioned some of them below:

 

What a balding man feels like?

Have you ever been obliged to do anything that you didn’t actually want to and were unsure whether it would be good for you? If so, you may probably understand a man who is losing his hair and is to shave his head.

When men notice their receding hairline, they often become very self-conscious. This is because they think they are losing attractiveness and are beginning to show signs of ageing. Therefore, any balding man tries to find a fast and effective solution. Firstly, he evaluates all the pros and cons of being bald, secondly, he looks for the best way to shave their heads and finally makes a decision! 

Whether you will look good with a shaved head or not mostly depends on you: if you will turn up your look with a beard, or whether you will work harder on your body and all the other features which can add attractiveness to your look, is your choice.  

 

The New Research

We have recently surveyed 1000 women to figure out the answer to this question: “What should one work on to rock his bald look?”

Let’s see what women advise:

46.2% of women advised bald men to be more confident in themselves and in the people around them as well

36.8% recommended growing a nice piece of beard

12.7% suggested concentrating on having a fit and masculine body

10% of women find that getting a tattoo is a good way to rock a bald look

8.8% think fashion look will help to rock a shaved-headed look

6.4% of women think bald men are attractive, sexy and bald rocks by itself

 

What is women’s attitude towards bald or shaved-headed men? Do women like bald men?

Hundreds of women of different ages and habits have been surveyed to find out the answers to the most frequent questions. You might now be thinking most women gave negative answers? Don’t hurry to jump to conclusions, read further, as there are lots of surprising and cheerful facts for you!

So, for the questions “Do women like bald men?” the overwhelming majority of women gave positive answers. 87.5% of women of different ages and nationalities surveyed find bald men attractive compared to only 12.5% of women, who gave negative answer. 

Let’s see what they say about bald guys:

 

“What do women think of bald or shaved-head men?”

Many women approved that the decisive factor is not the hair or its absence, but the personality of the man. Some women even mentioned they see baldness as a form of nakedness which appears to be a sign of honesty, thus making it easier to trust bald men.

Another group of women finds hair loss a secondary and non-significant factor. Moreover, they pay much more attention to a man’s sense of humour and other personal characteristics such as intelligence, sociability, confidence rather than the hair on the head. A reasonable woman would never choose his soulmate based on his facial appearance. And for those who will, they hardly deserve your attention.

Dozens of women said, quite often the face and the head shape of a man is something which looks perfect with a bald head. Usually, by saying this, women refer to celebrities such as Bruce Willis, Patrick Stewart, Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson. Also, the answer to the question "Is a shaved head unattractive?" was a solid “no”.

Another reassuring fact for bald men - women appreciate when men shave their head rather than try to camouflage their hair loss. It is seen as a self-confident act which makes them admire the man. Moreover, women and shaved headed woman say what matters isn't hair, but confidence: in that case hair or lack of it does not matter that much. Women like when men take care of themselves, thus a sleek and well-groomed look is always appreciable․ 

  Let’s have a look at what did women say. Users from Quora and Reddit:

“According to all the information my adolescent brain had available, the baldest man I knew was, for reasons completely unrelated and peripheral, the most compelling example of manhood EVER.”

“If you are good with it.. confident..hot enough and at the end of the day INTELLECTUAL. You being bald won't matter. be confident and carry it smartly. ”

“Women respect and appreciate men for who they are and not for how they look. And if someone says, looks are everything, that's just matter, I can't advocate for other women, but personally, I'd much rather prefer a bald man with a firebrand attitude as compared to a man with amazingly long locks.”

“When did hair become criteria for judging a man? There are several other things to worry about.. ;) As long as the man likes his style and carries it off well, how does it matter if he is bald or sports a Mohawk?! What makes you hot and likable is your personality, not just your hairstyle..”

“Do women find bald men attractive?”

Don't assume that your baldness is the cause behind all rejections that you experience. A vast majority of surveyed women, confirmed that actually, the hair loss isn’t what matters but who a man is, and that is what makes a man attractive. So the answer is absolutely YES! Man’s attitude towards his own look and the way he sees himself directly affects the women’s attitude. More often, women do not just go for looks, they appreciate personality, mannerisms, and overall charisma of a person.

As we all know,  women generally are attracted to the following characteristics of men, roughly in  the following proportions:

Physical: look, appearance, symmetry: 20%

Material: wealth, taste, capabilities: 40%

Social: attractiveness to other women, confidence, leadership: 40%

“It's all about confidence, charisma and personality.

If you have these 3 features, baldness will not make a difference to attract the right kind of people with the right vibes (^_^)”

“The least attractive thing is being ashamed of it or trying to hide it. The only times when thinning is ugly, is when it's paired with an incongruous haircut, eg bald on top, then long hair at the sides.

But bald all over, or really close-cropped, can be really hot, depending on whether you have a nicely-shaped head. If you do have a nicely-shaped head, go bald. If not, then keep your hair short, but perhaps strategically cut it shorter in some areas than others.”

“Well, in my opinion, some look better without hair and some don't. Some look pretty badass but it's not the being bald that's the main reason for that, it just contributes to the look. To me, hair or the lack of it isn't a deciding factor if I find a man attractive.”

“All that matters is the inner beauty and the inner personality of a person if anyone fails to appreciate that you'll only lead to dissatisfaction later on. I agree the first thing anyone observes about a person is the physical appearance. But there's a lot more to learn and appreciate about another person rather than his/her physical beauty.

He can always consult a good dermatologist and regain his lost hair. If that's the main concern for you.

My advice is just meet him get to know him if your personality matches with him voila you've got yourself a perfect match.”

“I'm not sure why, but some peoples' head shapes and facial features just look good without hair - just as people may look better or worse with different hairstyles.”

“I find guys that are losing hair, who just doesn’t care and shave everything off shows a lot of confidence and I personally find that attractive.

Some guys may have nice hair, but has a weak jaw, overweight, or with terrible posture, etc… then that thick hair won’t do much for him.”

“Do women mind dating with a bald man?”

The vast preponderance of women answering this question mentioned being bald is not an obstacle to date. However,  the external appearance is also very important, especially for the first meeting. Women recommended men to complete their look with some nice piece of beard, fashion glasses and other fashion accessories to make the best of their bald look.

 Users from Reddit and Quora:

“I am willing to date any man who understands my career priorities, my responsibility towards my family is loyal and intelligent. With or without hair.”

“I'm already dating someone who makes me burst out laughing on my phone in crosswalks. If he were bald, though, I'd still date with him.”

“Yep, some women hate it and won't even consider dating a man with thinning hair or who is completely bald. These women are shallow idiots, who think the admiration of their friends of their boyfriend is very important. I'm not some really deep person who only looks at inner beauty ... I like outer beauty, but if he has less hair on his head than others, well there are bigger issues and I've certainly dated my fair share of the follically challenged. I believe most women are like me on this one.”

“Yes, I have dated both bald men and men with hair, and I have no preference at all. This question is very subjective and it will vary from woman to woman.

But my most recent date was with a guy w/out hair and the only drawback is that they're always ready to go- it takes them no time to get ready so they will likely be waiting for you more often. But that's the only drawback in my opinion. :)”

“Would women marry a bald man?”

Marriage is not a game and is believed to be one of the most important decisions in our lives. But everyone has comprised something in their marriage as not a thing is perfect in this world.

Most women will marry a man without even thinking whether he is bald or not and there will be some, for whom being bald may be an obstacle for marriage. But one thing is true, not a single loving woman will leave his beloved one because of losing hair. However, we are not here to judge women but to present what they say.

 

Users from Quora:

“I don’t know if you could call me a ‘beautiful’ girl, but yes I’d marry a bald man, no doubt. Bald men are hot unless they’re fat.”

“I don’t really know whether girls, in general, would like to marry a bald man or not; because I cannot say for everyone and I also do not happen to be some poll-conducting agency but I’ve seen a lot of girls getting married to bald men for real.”

“I'm a woman, not a girl.. and I will answer from a woman's perspective. I am not averse to bald guys. It is the confidence with which a man holds himself that attracts a woman. It doesn't matter if you are tall or short, of athletic build or overweight, bald or having a full head of hair… Hold yourself with confidence and attitude. It's enough .. I know it sounds like a generic answer but it is the truth. I have seen guys that have no good looks, but with a Twinkle of their eye, mesmerizing a crowd full of women. It is all about confidence. And as to marrying one, why not? It is not something a woman would mind.”

“What would women advise a man who is losing hair and is going bald?” 

In fact, men are the ones to be anxious to lose hair and get bald. But what if you yourselves start looking at it from another perspective? Did you know that the majority of women prove the way they see and treat a bald man directly depends on the men’s attitude and his further behaviour? If you are self-confident enough and like your own appearance, women will look at your baldness as an advantage and the answer to the question "Do women find bald men sexy" will be YES. Moreover, women love your overall appearance, your character and you as a human being.

Most women recommended men to be proud of being bald, but, also accompany the bald look with a nice beard and a fit body.

Women find this to be a great way to emphasize the masculine and tough side of a guy and create an extremely attractive and charming look. The statistics showed that pictures of bald men with a beard were rated by women 6 % more confident, 10 % more masculine, 13 % more dominant, about an inch taller and 13 % stronger than the pictures of men with a head full of hair.

 

Users from Quora:

“You just have to be smarter about it.  You absolutely MUST be self-confident and you must feel good about yourself (which can be hard when you hear bald jokes all the time).  Stay in shape, too! If you allow your baldness to fuel your insecurity, you will create a vicious cycle that will be hard to break. BE CONFIDENT.  BE BOLD. LOVE WHO YOU ARE.”

“Work on accepting and being whole with yourself, just the way you are.”

The Final Say!

In the end, I would like to give my piece of advice to men who are losing hair. As a woman, I can confirm, not a single woman falls in love with only the facial appearance of a man. The thing that matters the most is a man’s character and who he is. You just need to be confident and fight your insecurities related to your baldness. Do not concentrate on the fact of losing hair and if you truly believe baldness to be an attractive feature for you, others will see the same. Just be yourself! Bald people, no matter old or young, are hot and handsome just the way they are!! Good luck!

6. Finding the right balance 

Being deprived of having a head full of hair people tend to grow hair elsewhere, which usually turns up to be a beard or/and a moustache. In fact, the latter is a perfect way to balance the overall look with a minimum effort. That is why having a beard with a shaved head makes one of the current fashion trends. Luckily, you can have a well-groomed beard despite the fact that you are losing hair. So don’t stress about your bald look, simply add some facial hair and rock it!

7. Getting rid of irritated red skin

Shaving your face every day is really hard on your skin, isn't it? Red and irritated skin, nicks and cuts, ingrown hair etc. This is because the facial skin is much more delicate than that of the head. So, growing a beard designates shaving less often and thus taking care of your skin and health. Moreover, you will have a definitely attractive look with your shiny bald head and a sleek beard.

8. Create your intellectual and winning look

Perfect idea for an intellectual look! A shaved head and a neatly-groomed beard - this is all you need to accomplish your intellectual appearance.

Shaved Head With Beard: Beard Styles for Bald Head

After all of the benefits mentioned above, if you have decided on growing a beard with a bald head just continue reading to find out how to choose the right beard style and to discover cool beard shapes for bald guys.

The first step to reveal how to look good bald with a beard will be identifying your face shape, then choose a beard style for your face shape, preferred style and occasion․ Here are 7 main face shapes: oblong, rectangular, round, square, diamond, inverted triangle and triangle. Once the face shape is defined, you will need to choose the beard style according to your face shape, occasion and preferred style. Here are the best beard styles for bald men according to face shapes, occasions and different styles. Are you ready for the big change?

OBLONG

This face shape is identified by a long and narrow bone structure.

A beard short in the bottom and fuller on the sides will make your face look wider. Avoid growing a long, narrow beard that counters all laws of symmetry.

Recommended beard styles for Oblong face shape with a bald head: 

-    Mutton Chops or Imperial beard is the best option to create a wider face shape. However, you can also try Boxed Beard for a tough appearance and a light Stubble for a fashionable and stylish "bald with beard" look

 

 

RECTANGULAR

Rectangle faces are about one and a half times longer than they are wide. The cheek lines running from temple to jawline are straight. These face shapes are very similar to the oblong shape but have an angular jawline.

Recommended beard styles for Rectangular face shape with a bald head: 

-  a badass look with a Full Beard, which is currently believed to be an ideal beard length and style for shaved head

-  a modern and youthful style with a neat Chin Curtain

-  a flirty intellectual look -  Extended Goatee

ROUND

The round face shape is defined as a face with wide hairline and fullness below the cheekbones.

A lengthy beard will be your best choice, as it will prolong your face as wide as it is round. Keep the side parts short and let everything grow fully under the chin. Different variations of goatee are a pretty good choice: an extended goatee, half goatee or goatee with a moustache (fuller hair at your chin going up around the mouth). Bald head and goatee highlight your masculinity in its best ways! A light stubble is also a good decision. But even better is the beard that was created by Eric Bandholz: longer full beard with a connecting moustache. That will make your chin look weaker giving you a look of a modern hipster.

Recommended beard styles for Round face shape to create: 

-  a traditionally stylish shaved head and goatee look and a narrow face with a classic Goatee, an extended Goatee, full Goatee, half Goatee, Goatee with a moustache, bald and long beard and all the similar beard styles

-  a narrow face with a light Stubble:  shave the upper part of your beard on the cheeks, and give it a shape that makes your face look narrow

-  a young and handsome appearance with a Chinstrap Beard

-  a modern hipster look with a Soul patch beard style

 

SQUARE

The square-shaped face has a wide hairline and jawline.

With this kind of face shape, you need to avoid straight lines and try to smoothen your face shape with the help of facial hair. Similar to guys with round faces, you will probably want to create a long and narrow face. Because your face is more angular than a round one, it’s important to shape the beard as it grows. It is a great idea sculpting it into a rounded, more oval shape as it becomes fuller. To keep it neat, cut your beard shorter on the sides while letting it grow thicker around your chin.

Recommended beard styles for Square face shape with a bald head:  

-  a macho style with a Balbo beard

-  a stylish and fresh look with an Extended Goatee

-  a charming, mature, wise and experienced look with a Chinstrap Beard

DIAMOND

The diamond face shape is described by a narrow chin and forehead with wide cheekbones.

Beard styles that work best with this face shape have narrower sides and fullness at the chin. That means it’s best to keep the sides short while growing out the bottom of your beard. As your cheeks are sharper than your chin, you may want to keep the chin hair slightly shorter than the rest of the bottom. You can also give this illusion by sculpting the beard into an oval shape with a good beard wax or oil. You can try beard oils and waxes by “Viking Beard Stuff”, “Arthur j Hawke” and “Grizzly Adam”. Beard grooming products by these companies are of high quality and fairly priced.

Recommended beard styles for Diamond face shape with a bald head:

-  a “Tough man look” with a Full beard

-  a young and handsome look with a Balbo Beard

-  a confident and wise look with a Chinstrap Beard

-  a charming youthful look with a Goatee Beard

INVERTED TRIANGLE

This face shape is characterized by a wider forehead and narrower chin. Keeping the style fuller around the jaw helps to add weight to the narrower chin. The classic Garibaldi beard is a great means for enhancing your face shape, which has a full-grown beard and a connected moustache, with the facial hair trimmed in a circular shape at the ends to create a rounded face shape. This will give a compelling look to one with a bald head by defining a brand new style. Although this style is described as low maintenance, it is essential to keep the bottom of the beard rounded and symmetrical.

Recommended beard styles for Inverted triangle face shape with a bald head: 

-  knowledgeable, wise and experienced look with a Mutton Chops Beard

-  fashionable and confident look with a Chin Curtain Beard

-  a trendy, badass look with a Full Beard or an Extended Goatee Beard

TRIANGLE

This face shape has a small, narrow forehead and a larger jawline.

This creates a tricky situation since you already have volume in the area where you want to grow a beard. For this reason, no full beards are recommended. There still are a couple of options to rock your beard. You can keep everything short and neat or grow a long beard but keep it short on the sides, then sculpt it inward to create an oval face illusion of a bald guy with a beard.

Recommended beard styles for Triangular face shape with a bald head: 

-  a charming look with a Chinstrap beard and a moustache

-  a modern and stylish look with a Goatee and a moustache

-  a tough guy look with a Balbo beard
