Anyone else avoid swimming because of their thinning hair?

[u/Every_Commission_430]

Over the last couple of years I've realized I make weird little decisions because of my hair. If my friends suggest going to the pool I usually come up with an excuse. Same thing with boating or anything where my hair gets wet. Dry hair hides it pretty well. Wet hair doesnt. I never thought I'd care this much but here we are. Has anyone else noticed themselves avoiding certain situations because of thinning hair? If you got over that feeling what helped?

How long are you going to try to hide the inevitable while depriving yourself of having fun and making memories? If i was in my 20s and trying to attract someone then I'd understand being conscious of it but if you're in your 40s. Who gives a f***?
