My 6 month transformation, pretty dramatic difference.

[DeadlyStriker]

Glad to see that you realize that in the end, that is something so small and menial that it means nothing. I played soccer with a kid since I was young, and around 8th grade he had to shave his head. He had the same thing as you, and from 8th grade on was completely bald, no eyebrows, etc.

He's married now with a very attractive woman haha.

Keep crushing OP. You look good. srs.

[Iluvmud]

Man.... that reminds me Gotham got cancelled.

[Kirra]

Looks better, srs.

You might wanna get your eyebrows tattooed on though. A friend of mine has the same thing.

EDIT: And stop closing the button on your suit jacket when you're wearing a west you heathen.

I'm considering it especially seeing as this seems to be permanent as of now. Gonna wait for now though. I don't really want to spend 500$ whenever I to need more practical things like a new condenser.

[wooosh3]

Part of the reason why I'm positive about it because I know at the end of the day it isn't the end of the world. I got an amazing career, a house, great friends and family, and I have my health and physique.

this is the kind of positivity that we need on the misc

repped

[l2ambo]

Looks better imo

[PrepaidExpress]

Dam, and here i am complaining about my hair receding.

[r32gojirra]

Now I feel bad about shaving my skull every week.

I’m my own reaper

[DizzySmalls]

My head is way too large for this. I'm ****ed once the reaper finishes what he started

[BigNik78]

Thankfully the alopecia areata hasn't reaped my eyebrows in the last nearly ten years even though my head still looks like a soccer ball. Keep lifting mayne, with your build you still look really good (No Homer).

[Serenadium]

how did you get your scar at the top of your nose between your eyes?

[EoR]

Nicely shaped skull, good body aesthetics and a positive attitude. You're doing well.

[clangsta]

No big deal opie you gonna be just fine. PS - nice pupper.

Thanks brother, good to see another miscer with alopecia. Have you tried changing your diet at all or do you just lose hair sporadically.

Probbaly just the picture but I dont have a scar.

Thanks brother. Staying positive because why get pissed about something so trivial.

[jasticus]

I am hairy af. I hope I get it for my body hair.

Haha the lack of body hair doesn't bother me. Showers are faster crew. Although I'm always cold now.

[BustaCapp]

smooth like butta

[pechorin]

you have the perfect head shape so you look awesome still man. Even without the brows you have a strong skull and eyebrow ridge area. Almost like a model (no homo). You look great and you have your health. Respect

Pretty sporadically. Happened shortly after I dropped an extra long floor jack on my foot and blew the opposite knee along with a lot of stress at the time. A couple weeks later I had three really small bald spots in the back then it hit me a lot harder shortly after that. took a while for my body hair to come back but still have it pretty bad on my head. I've read some others here and there have got it after body trauma too.

Yeah that's my biggest thing about this disease is not knowing what triggered it. Sounds like you have yours under control somewhat. Have you tried any shots, creams, pills, or supplements for it?

[TsubasaKen]

Thanks brah. I was thinking of getting my eyebrows micro bladed but gonna hold off. Is 500$ really worth having eyebrows?

Id say yes. You could go from "whats up with that dude" to "damn thats a good looking guy".


Dont know if that microblading thing ends up fine looking, but if it does then its a no-brainer IMO.

Don't know about no Male model but thanks for the kind words.

Yeah it's the only thing I truly miss and I know it would definitely make me look more "normal"

[digital022]

That's wild bro. On the bright side, it's just part of what makes you you, considering you're otherwise healthy.

[HomerJThompson]

Thanks brah. No I don't really except some wedding pictures

Yes one of the many reasons I'd trade the possibility of getting hair back for just my eyebrows and eyelashes. Driving on a call with the window down and boom i cant see.

Only thing I hate is not having eyebrows. I can live with being bald. No reason to be negative. Who is it benefiting? It's not gonna make me feel better about myself.

unfortunately I dropped out of the dating game for a few months. My self confidence got shot there for a bit. I'm ready to get back out there though. Not gonna let being bald hold me back.

Glad you are positive, unfortunately you wont have the same success in the dating game but just plow through it op, will help you find a genuine girl. Can you get microthreading eyebrows?

[ItsJamesthefin]

Yeah I am otherwise healthy. I even figure out my extreme IBS due to cutting gluten and dairy out. I used to poop on average 5 times a day and sometimes it would be as many as 10+. I just figured if was due to my colon surgery years ago. I had a foot of my intestines removed after my appendix ruptured.

Online dating probbaly will be way more difficult. However I feel more confident than ever and having a positive attitude I believe will take me far. I'm still considering getting microblading for my eyebrows. I looked around and you definitely get what you pay for. So I'm gonna have to shell out some decent money if I want it done.

[kezzam]

Looks good mate, srs. I think you'll end up a better man for it, not worrying about appearance so much is good for masculinity anyways.

[TheWeeknd4Ever]

you look good man, glad to see how positive you are and that you are otherwise in great health

nothing about this should set you back in any area of your life. keep killing it man

[ItsJamesthefin]

Seriously I agree with this statement. It seems like hardship can force you to become a better version of yourself. I've discovered a lot about myself, and I have gotten out of my comfort zone recently.

That's the plan man, being positive seems to be the way to go. It makes you feel better about yourself. I hated being negative and thinking why did this happen to me. It's all I thought about and it was start to eat me up. Everyone said I looked fine but I didnt believe them. I learned to accept myself and I realized that I dont have it that bad. I lost my hair so what. I still have so much in life and I am very thankful for that.

[ItsJamesthefin]

Someone asked if I had any pictures. This was right after I shaved my head for the first time and had eyebrows.

[Coolman468]

Sure thing. Back in March I noticed a few spots of hair missing on the back of my head. I went to the dermatologist and he said it was alopecia. At first I was getting shots to help fill in the spots, but the spots grew bigger and bigger and started to multiply. It got to the point where I decided to shave my head. Eventually the disease started to migrate to my eyebrows, eyelashes, facial hair and some of my body. It really knocked me down and killed my self confidence, but eventually I decided to not be negative and dwell on how bad I have it. The disease only attacks hair cells and I'm otherwise healthy.

Sucks that that happened, but glad to hear you’re owning it!
