Need assistance choosing a new bow

Hello you all!

So, i have been doing archery for a couple of years (interrupted cuz life is hard, but being consistent since last december) and I have been practicing with a bow that was a present from my friends.

For the record, I did not choose the bow, not the characteristics and that kinda make it not optimal for me. At least, since my begginer point. It is a hungarian bow, 28lbs, 32lbs at maximum opening (which I am perfectly able to draw) and I love it! But, a bunch of people at the club told me that that kind of bow is a difficult one to master, and not propper for a newby like me.

That is why I am thinking about acquiring a new one. Tbh the simplier the bow, the more I enjoy it. Traditional is my favourite style. Monoblocks are appealing to me but, a bow with removable limbs seems more like a versatile one and a better long-time inversion.

With these in mind, what kind of bow do you think would be a good one for me? Let me know in the comments and thank you all for your answers!

PD: My height is 1'78m, so take that in consideration hehe.

How am I doing?

A couple of posts here and a few comments there made me a bit paranoid. Ngl, if i am balding, I am ok with that. It is what it is. But, is it really happening? Cuz i do not see noticeable thinning or receeding.

To add context, pics 1-5 are from my fresh 18. The rest of them are from this year (24yo)

So, what do you think?

Thanks all and plz be nice
