I'm a 39yo guy with a buzz cut, i cut it every 2 days with my trimmer, I've had this style since my early 20s when i was in the army
I wouldn't even class myself as "bald".. my hairline has receded a little but i can still grow hair on top if i want. No way near the Captain Picard look. I look better with a buzzcut, the receded grown out look doesn't appeal to me.
To be brutally honest and objective as possible.. i am actually quite good looking in the face, and i'm also tall which goes a long way with appearance and attractiveness i have found.
Some teen lads called me baldy, actually they went beserk one day yelling it and going crazy...
My mate Jim asks me if i ever considered growing out my hair or getting hair transplant surgery. I said nah.. it got mentioned again next month.
When i was with my ex-gf in the pubs and bars i'd sometimes get the "fair play mate you've done ok for a bald guy.." errr ok
Brit blokes are very insecure about hair, the thought of going bald is nightmarish. They live for their fancy fades they pay 17 quid for at the Kurdish Barbers
