From negation, to resignation to hope to aceptation
All pics are taken in order.
Hair loss became notorious. I avoided pics from above, with certain light and buy hair-loss shampoos and creams. In a point (First pics) i literally cut my hair in ways that looks absurd with the objetive of "erease" baldness signs spots in my forehead and use hat to hide the meat kipá in the top of my head.
Finally i decided it was too much. Being bald was more dignified and aesthetically pleasing than carrying that death cat with mange on my head. I was scared and unsure of my decision, but at the same time, I felt free from the stress and insecurity I'd been experiencing regarding my hair loss. If I was going to be bald, I was going to be bald with dignity and not cling to ashes.
At first, it was strange for me. It felt odd to see myself in the mirror or take pictures, but most people said I didn't look bad, and I also started to feel a self-confidence I was losing.
I liked being bald.
Or so I thought.
As you can see in the middle photos, at one point my hair started to grow, and to my surprise, spots and areas that previously had hardly any hair were now growing normally (or so I thought). So I decided that maybe I could get back on track with my hair. It was a moment of weakness. After seeing the photos I mentioned, I realized it was just a false hope. Maybe if I let it grow more, I could cover those areas, but that would have meant going back to the stress I wanted to escape.
I shaved my head again, and since then, I've had moments of weakness, but I think it's the best decision. I'm a 26-year-old bald man.
TL;DR: 26 y/o bald feel insecure about my hair loss, decided to shave my head completely. I liked it, saw that my hair started to grow back, decided to try letting it grow, go wrong, and went back to the right path
