dianetavegia -> Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/4/2008 9:39:14 PM)

Okay. I see so many bald guys, usually quite young, and they all have facial hair.

Why do you think a bald man grows a beard, goatee or mustache?
What do you think about the young guys losing some hair who shave their head? Cool or just bald?
What about Comb Overs? Is a comb over worse than shaved heads?
Ladies, Is bald attractive to you?

Hubby has a full head of hair and won't grow a mustache (had one for many years.)

Because he can.

I think it's fine. I don't think it's cool OR uncool (although I lean more towards cool than uncool).

What about Comb Overs? Is a comb over worse than shaved heads?
ABSOLUTELY worse!

Ladies, Is bald attractive to you?
I'm fine with it.

My hubby has a full head of hair, too, and if his dad is any indication, he'll be keeping it (although he's already graying).

Bald with facial hair is very nice.

There's a guy at my church my age with a horseshoe thingie going for him. He just stays bald but keeps his goatee and mustache. Very nice. [:)]



DreadPirateRandy -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/5/2008 12:42:19 AM)

I'm partially werewolf, so facial hair is always an issue.

I hope and pray I never go bald. I don't think I can pull it off.



Szaftoo -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/5/2008 11:42:32 AM)

It depends on the guy, but pretty much anything is OK with me, except a comb over. They should be illegal.

They don't all do it, but those who do I think do it because it's a better look. Bald and just bald (especially young bald) doesn't look right.

Both. My fiance is mostly bald and shaves it all off. There's history to it, but long story short, he got out of the marines and tried to grow his hair back and realized there wasn't much to grow. So he just does it the easy way and has none. He has less hair at 34 than his dad does at 60.

What about Comb Overs? Is a comb over worse than shaved heads?
completely unattractive. Looks ridiculous. It's like women trying to wear jeans with their bellies hanging over the edge.

Ladies, Is bald attractive to you?
Yep.

I think of a comb-over as a sideways mullet.

Yes .. but mullets were cool at one point. I don't think a combover has EVER been cool.

Was that about the same time polyester leisure suits were cool?

No, a little later I think. I remember them being cool when I was growing up. And I'm only 28.

Yeah, and bell bottoms too. [:)]



armydude -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/6/2008 8:06:03 PM)

I shave my head, and I also have a short goatee. I do it just because I like the look.

dianetavegia -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/8/2008 8:19:10 PM)

Okay. Another question:
Why are so many young men going bald? I'm 57 and I cannot ever recall seeing young men who were bald. Maybe a very ill young man, but shucks, almost every young man in our large church is bald or seriously balding.

Hormones in food? Stress? Exposure to chemicals?


To answer my own questions from above:

I have NO idea why a balding guy would shave his head. Not cool to me.

I think a LOT of facial hair on a bald guy looks lopsided and odd. A mustach or small goatee is fine. I am guessing they grow hair on their face because they can.

Comb overs are horrid!

I do NOT find shaved bald attractive. A balding guy, such as Sean Connery, looks just fine.



christsstar -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/8/2008 11:51:27 PM)

Diane ... I agree that a full beard and bald doesn't look good. But a goatee is very stylish and trendy these days. A mustache alone .... NOT COOL!!!!

I think men shave their head instead of see the bald because it takes away from teh bald. The attention isn't on the crown of hair, but on the head. it's all the same.

Now ... at 60 with a grey crown? that shouldn't be shaved. But at 30ish ... I LOVe it.

Well, I guess I won't shave my head then.

This is the exact reason I do the whole head shaving thing. When my head is shaved, I look like I'm in my 20's. When it's not, I look like I'm the 40 year old range.



JazTek -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/14/2008 5:15:41 PM)

To be honest, I've seen a lot of guys who shave their head and have a goatee/beard are usually overweight... Not all of them, but the majority...

btw... i have a goatee, am overweight, but will not shave my head... just don't like it...

like grossly overweight???

I would say it might be a coincidence. The average adult puts on weight as he/she ages and most men who are going bald and will shave are probably in their 30s. So I would think that being overweight and have the shaved/goatee look going on is a coincidence.

I can think of a lot of overweight men who have normal hair. Who have long hair. Who have full beards. Who are clean-shaven. I'm not sure that's a fair connection.



_Cinderella_ -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/21/2008 4:08:31 AM)

Some men look alright with this look. I think Todd of the music group Selah is not bad looking.



brothertodd -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/25/2008 12:36:14 AM)

LOL...absolutely!!!! I am married to a soldier, so he can't have facial hair (well, he could have a mustache, but that would just look weird on him). He keeps his hair very very short though...usually about once a week he buzz cuts it to the skin then straight razor's it all the way down so it is smooth. I wouldn't mind if he did that every day, but he doesn't take/have time to do that. I like it when he does though!!! Usually it doesn't grow out too much beyond the "velcro" stage when he gets the urge to cut it again. (PIC of my two baldies...lol). My hubby was the one guy who showed up to Basic training though with long hair, and once he got it cut he has never gone back again.

ROFLOL....I agree!!!!

I think it just depends on the person, to be honest. But I agree combovers are awful.

Hi Denny!!

I've been interested in someone for awhile and he's a black man who shaves his head... we joke that when his hair gets to be an 1/8 inch long, that he's just getting shaggy and his hair's almost long enough to braid..... hehheeh.... but part of his reason for shaving isn't because he was going bald but because he'd have a fro otherwise [;)]

I mentioned to someone at church that my hair had gotten too long and she looked at me like I had gone crazy. Then I said, If I can pinch and get ahold of hair, it's too long.[;)] (My hair's about 1/8-1/4 inch)



vmginny -> RE: Bald men and facial hair ?? (5/26/2008 9:13:03 PM)

Bald and goatee. I love goatees.

My husband isn't bald but I love it when he buzz cuts his hair and trims his goatee. He's one handsome dude then.
