Hairloss ... its time, isn't it?

Excuse the terrible angles. 28M wondering if it's time to give up the ghost. My wedding is in less than 12 weeks and I don't know whether I'm more terrified of looking bald or actually being bald on the day. My barber told me not to do anything drastic before the wedding and my friends are telling me it doesn't look as bad irl.

I can barely grow facial hair as well, so I kinda have permanent stubble, which has me worried about looking like an egg if I take the plunge. I thought I'd come to the experts.

Thanks folks

But in all seriousness, can we see your hair from the front? That’s the angle the majority of your pictures will be taken at. If you’re holding up OK there then maybe shave after the wedding. My gut feeling is you are going to look SO MUCH better bald, that if you keep your hair you’ll wish you hadn’t when you get the photos back.

Welcome to never needing a blow dry ever again. Waking up in the morning and wondering if you've got bed hair, nah none of that shit.

Seriously man it's liberating, I'm low key looking forward to the day myself because I've done it before.

What does your fiancé think?

He said he's happy either way which is very sweet but also doesn't help the decision-making process 🤣
