Unless you're bald/balding, keep some hair. Some guys can make the shaved head work, but they'd probably still look better with hair.

The bigger question is why so many dudes are losing their hair?
Last time I was in the Caribbean, I noticed dudes down there don't seem to have that problem.

A lot of times you can look at a youngin's hair line and see they are destined for baldness. LaBron James probably doesn't do drugs, but he looks like a good candidate for a baldy.
It seems like African American males have the highest percentage of bald guys in the USA? I wouldn't say its drugs because white and Asians use drugs and Caribbean dudes definitely use drugs. I'm not even sure you can say more guys are going bald these days because back in the day they might have just had the George Jefferson look.

I blame drug culture. Popping pills is common these days. I live a relatively clean lifestyle myself not counting the occasional fast food and joint here and there. That's light compared to what my friends are into.
Balding in males largely comes down to genetics. I have males in my family that do drugs and eat terribly and it hasnt affected their hair in the least. I have other males in my family that lived clean lives and started showing signs of balding in their early 20s.

Some ethnic groups go bald way more than others. South Asian men perennially lose their hair, while East Asian men often keep theirs. Native Americans rarely suffer from baldness. One study found that among Europeans, Greeks had the highest rates of male pattern baldness.
As a rule of thumb, the hairier a population is, the higher their rate of baldness will be.

Do you mean completely bald or like an army cut? I get my head shaved every 2-3 months or so mainly because going to the hairdresser annoys me. Would never rock the full bald look though

I shave my head, but not with a razor. Girls like it. I'm lucky though, I have a good shaped head and face that fits the look. I'm in the GSP and Vin Diesel camp, not Moby. I've never met a girl who outright doesn't like shaved heads, though I've met many who really like it. Girls love to touch my hair. If I was straight Mr. Clean bald, is imagine it isn't as attractive, and id think some girls would definitely be turned off by it.
Basically, a shaved head and muscle mass is s good look. A shaved head and being s fat or skinny fuck is a horrible look.
I've had a shaved head since I was 17, and didn't start losing hair until my mid twenties. I'm lucky that I'm one of the guys who a shaved head just suits me. My cousin is balding, and looks like dog shit. He has a giant forehead and square head to go with it. Terrible look.

Maybe its just me but with all the anti hair loss options (rogaine, propecia, hair plugs) why do men have to settle with shaving their head unless they want to go bald. However if you are going bald and want to shave your head it would likely be an advantage if your are in shape somewhat as the moby look is kind of the anti player look if you ask me.

There is no cure for balding. Many drugs like propecia have side effects, and you will still go bald. Hair transplants are an option, but you wont have a full head of hair, and you may still lose it in the future. It also leaves scars where they remove the donor strip, so I don't think I would be able to still shave my head, and it is my preferred look. Even if I had a full head of hair, I would still shave it. Though, I would of course prefer to have a full head of hair, but that isn't in the cards for me, and doesn't really bother me. I nail more girls per year than most guys do in their lives. My hair has never been a problem. If you have good game, style and muscle you are still at the top of the game, even without much hair.

Yes, this was the style 10 years ago when conservative hair cuts were considered "in" after movies like "Trainspotting"
I shaved my head for many years. I'm going bald now, and I've grown out my hair and sideburns.
I got more pussy this year than I did in totality from 2001-2009.
It's really all about your game though.
Looks are great if you have them.
If you don't, there are other ways. You'd better cultivate a strong personality.

Back in the Jordan era, it was cool because not a lot of dudes did it. Nowadays, you might see a group of 5 bald guys walking together so it looks sort of stereotypical American ... especially AA.

They say you lose a ton of hair a day (or something like that) I can't tell if it's baldness or just normal shedding.
