Bold Bald
Baldness in its natural state is a horseshoe shape without any appearance altering factors. Horseshoe hairstyle looks clownish and it's commonly adopted by professional clowns around the world. It's surprising that people can make a style out of doughnut ring hair. This is proof that people can adapt to any unwanted condition and thrive to cover up its defects. Actors are living proof that baldness can be rebranded by shaving to skin level. We have all seen at least one bald actor who defies the laws of physics and social dynamics. As it happens actors live a staged life both in movies and in reality. Whatever actors do can’t be replicated by ordinary people. For ordinary men it's difficult to compensate for a lack of hair without wealth and fame. Celebrities have a significant amount of wealth that overcompensates for baldness and makes it seem like baldness has no effect at all. Many men lean on the successes of bald celebrities in giving them confidence that hair loss can be overcome. However confidence alone won’t be enough without assistance from other qualities such as wealth, health, fame and status. Those who have some degree of qualities mentioned can adorn the bald look boldly. Whereas those who don’t have any will look clownish despite being confident. The key ingredient that makes bald men look cool is competence. Those who lack competence become clowns by default. For this reason, it's imperative that bald men gain competence to offset side effects of hair loss. Men instinctively do build competence when they first start losing hair. The ones who don’t bother are left at the bottom of the male hierarchy.
Hairy crowns don't need to hide from the light of day unlike a bald spot reflecting rays from the sun onto people's eyes. Face decorations such beards, piercings, and tattoos are used to draw attention away from a shiny scalp. Especially effective way to draw attention away is a good personality. Making fun of your own bald head shows your personality is more important. By emphasizing the obvious bald head along with your sense of humour, personality is catapulted to the front and baldness is left behind. An opposite effect can happen when a hat is worn 24/7 especially indoors because it attracts curiosity. When everything is known about a person except their hair, people will naturally speculate about what is under the hat. When the dreaded moment finally arrives, it will have a double effect. A temporary fix is covering the bald spot with a combover but it is inadequate and shows insecurity over time. The best idea is to find a real lasting cure. Some guys prefer going out at night, avoiding any light as much as possible. The darker the hair, the better as the darkness and hair become indistinguishable from each other, serving as camouflage. There is a community of men who only go out at night because it's easier, they call it a night game but let's not digress. Boldly displaying a bald spot is always better than hiding it in an obvious manner like wearing a hat 24/7. The reason bold bald men are perceived better looking is because they tap into the bald brand that has already been marketed through many channels. Bold bald men can leverage the bald brand that has already been marketed by bald celebrities.
A popular opinion that circulates around the hair loss community is confidence is more important than the state of your hair. Confidence is important but untestable and can easily be faked. For this reason lies about bald men and confidence being sexy is spreading. When a man shaves his hair he is insecure, if he was truly confident he would grow out his hair in the grandpa area and have it on display. For insecure men the solution is shaving the hair completely to make others think they have full hair and are shaving it out of choice. Bald men are trying to leverage a style called bald brand by shaving hair to skin level. Primary focus should be on curing baldness since confidence matters after you have passed the appearance filter. Baldness constrains how a person manages their own hairstyle. Even when you can hide your baldness, it still dominates your style. Hair is a wonderful way to express your personality as there are an unlimited number of styles to choose from. Long hair is often seen as non-conformist and rebellious, this roughly translates to confidence. When your hair is thinning most hair styles are forbidden, leaving you with one viable option which is to leverage the bald brand.
Because baldness is now more associated with confidence thanks to actors who promote the idea, people assume hairy men aren’t confident. Those who buy into such beliefs narrow their dating pool to only bald men when looking for confident men. A unique selling point for bald men is confidence when it comes to dating. Follicly challenged men unintentionally made confidence their trait to give themself a competitive edge. Bald men have to be dominant wherever they go otherwise if they stay silent, there is nothing to distract people from the shiny bald scalp. Bald men who don’t become dominant will be classed as senile. Unless you’re happy being sidelined as a senile, you have to be dominant and take your place at the top of male hierarchy. Predators survive on eating weak animals. On the other hand, Dominant men survive on talking over men who have hair because hairy men don’t need to be loud or dominant to attract attention. Dominating those who aren’t competing with you is easy. However when another dominant man arrives into the same room, the game changes. If there are two dominant bald men in the room, one of them will have to be subordinate to the other like an older and younger brother relationship. When a single opportunity arises such as a job position or new date, the competition between two bald men will be cut throat, destroying the experience of just going with the flow. In order for bald men to succeed they have to be bold. For some the boldness will aid in success while lowering enjoyment of the journey. It's always better to be bold bald than hiding it but ultimately a cure is the best.
