This is simply an observation. I’ve noticed that the majority of white males I’ve known in real life and on television have a fear of losing their hair.
Most black guys I know welcome the hair loss as an opportunity to wear the bald look. On the other hand most white men comb the few strands they have over and wear a ring around their head to savor the last hair they have. I’d venture to bet Rogaine’s sales market is primarily white males. Why is that, bald is okay…welcome your age.[/quote]
Of course, this is a generalization. Therefore, a stereotype. You sir, have committed hate speech. Unapproved of observations are not to be permitted! Stay where you are, sensitivity coaches are being dispatched to your location.
white men are much more affected by hairloss, you dont even have to look at stats for this just use your eyes,
asians have the least tendency to go bald, and african americans have pretty good genes there too,
while most white men are affected by hairloss,
the grass is always greener on the other side i guess, although i dont know where your generalization of black men prefer to go bald came from, iv yet to meet a guy no matter the race that welcomed hair loss

LOL!!! So true! Me too I don’t get the point of this. Pathetic. For chrisake shave that shit off!
I’m 23 and my hair is falling out pretty fast. It was semi long a few months ago and when I saw some pictures I realised it just looked dumb. I have shaved it really short since. I probably will shave my head soon but I think it will look stupid.
I have a really small head and no hair will make it look even smaller on a bigger then average body. I can’t do the bearded look cos my facial hair is really slow to develop.
Still, I refuse to be a comb-over person. They just look dumb.
I’ve had it shaved fairly short but I prefer to hide the fact that I have a very high hairline. When the time comes I’ll have no problem shaving it and rocking a beard.
I started losing it when I was about 19 and it started to become noticeable by the time I was 21. As soon as it was noticeable I started shaving it. It was traumatic at first, especially being so young, but I ended up finding out that A LOT of women go for it and I’ve been told I look pretty good this way, so it doesn’t bother me anymore.
If given the choice, I would have it of course, but it isn’t something I sit around worrying about.
Most white men (who don’t lift) have pencil necks tbh. A pencil neck with a large-ass melon on top looks terrible bald.
If you’re a pinhead, its even worse lol.
IF you have a normal sized head atop a thick-ass neck with decent traps, chances are you’ll rock the bald look no matter what.
My hair started to leave around age 22 or so. As soon as the thinning was noticeable I shaved it.
Now I can stand it if it grows for more than about 4 days. Drives me nuts.
Luckily, my wife met me bald, and loves the shaved look.
BTW–I’m white and my wife is black…LOL.
The shaved head “look” sort of originated in the biker culture to my understanding, then was adopted by black males as a “style” in the 90’s.
Typically, black people tend to lead a lot of the style “trends”. Bald became cool for black guys, and sort of stuck a lot longer than most styles. It often takes a long time for trends like that to transmit over into “white” culture.
In this case, the shaved look for white people is still associated with the biker culture, i.e the “bad ass” look. That turns away a lot of conservative white people.
Many sides to something as simple as shaving…
Shaved heads and goatees go with powerlifting ----so I have always fit in well.
guys with jawlines like stathams could get away with most hair styles, or lack thereof. But yeah, if I start to lose it I’m going to try and be like him too haha.
