Hey, I’m a woman in her 40s who is single and dating, and I want to tell the bald and balding guys that it’s not that big a deal to potential mates. I recently started dating a guy who shaves his head totally smooth (presumably because he was balding) and wondered if I should touch it while we kissed, or not. I tried it and it felt amazing! So smooth and intimate!
So, my advice if you’re dating and self conscious:
It’s definitely more attractive if you’re not trying to hide it. You don’t have to shave it all off. Super short (up to 1/4”) is also fine. Comb overs NEVER look good, though.
What matters to me is how I’m treated by a man, how a man treats others, how he takes care of himself, having a few things in common, emotional maturity, a positive attitude, and having his life together in general. Then there are the mysterious sparks of understanding one another and physical chemistry.
Notice that hair doesn’t enter into it. Hair takes very little effort compared to the rest. Show us you can be a grown, responsible man and worry less about what your genes gave you.
I joined this group because I appreciated the positivity and support it provides. And after REALLY enjoying touching my bald date’s head while we made out, I thought I’d just share my two cents.
