To feel protective of DS, 19, who has recently gone bald

[DaisyLuke]

DS has gone from normal hairline at 17 to literally a six o'clock horseshoe shadow and b*er all else at 19. We are talking a Prince William scenario on 2 years. Obviously he's rather sensitive about this. I wonder if I need to warn relatives he hasn't seem to a while in advance so he doesn't get the shocked reaction we just recently had at a family wedding. Some people who should know better (S'IL, take a bow) overreacted and I know it upset him. We've a few events coming up soon. Ideas?

Poor your and poor DS!

An old bf of mine had this. He embraced the shave and looked great.

I know it feels drastic but it might look a lot better.

Haven't posted here for a while. DS has now "bitten the bullet" & shaved it all off. He's just texted me the post shave pics. Wasnt an easy step for him, I hope he'll get positive feedback. He's probably nervous anticipating reactions.

Good for him. It’s so unfair

My husband went bald quite young and he’s always said you need to develop a thick skin to the comments. It’s a sad view to have because I can’t understand why people comment on this but it seems to be the norm to be quite pass remarkable when it comes to baldness

Just seen that it’s a zombie thread.

My apologies
