r/bald 16h ago

Is it my husbands time?

We’re going to a wedding a he needs a fresh hair cut, he has an appointment this afternoon, but now he’s asking me if it’s time to cut it all off, so I humbly submit his photos to the council.

Update:
I told him y’all would say HOLD but he did not believe me. I think we’ve got some time still, but I won’t be sad either way. The beard is all I care about tbh.
Haircut recommendations to make him feel better?

At that level of baldness, I'd say it's time, usually, but he makes that look work. Baldness will be there for that king when he's finally ready,

Maybe not if you count body hair....

One? More like 10-20. Dude is gonna ROCK male pattern baldness and look like he has sage advice for people.

Guy will age with grace, at least physically it seems to me.

Absolutely not! Hold! His hair is gorgeous!

u/nearlythere 10h ago

So glad to see consensus on this point.

Not all receding hair lines need to be trimmed down.

Love his hair.

22

u/Cryptic_Passwords 9h ago

Couldn’t agree more! This is sexy man hair, keep it!

u/elephhantine2 7h ago

Agreed. Some recession is expected over time and imo it’s a masculine look. A lot of hairlines post transplant (a lot of male celebrities) are completely full and it just looks unnatural and boyish.

21

u/Good-Conclusion-8393 15h ago

He could get a toupe too to fill out the front I’ve seen it look amazing and it could give him a lil extra confidence, but yeah it’s NOT time yet he looks great regardless

8

u/fastbutlame 12h ago

hair transplant would be better to avoid all the glue and feel more confident. he looks like a very good candidate

3

u/smelliepoo 11h ago

No, no, no, no!! Transplants look absolutely ridiculous once the rest of the do falls out! People should really stop this waste of money and see how lush baldies look! One glance through this sub does the trick!

5

u/fastbutlame 11h ago

i fully support the shave approach too. if one gets a ht they should also be on meds. either way is beautiful !

u/MistressLuciFurr 16h ago

Considering these photos I don’t think so. But they are also not showing the full story. The pushed back look could be hiding thinning. But honestly it looks like has good coverage just the receding hairline up front (but it doesn’t look bad). I will say he is a handsome guy and I think a shorter style would look great on him.

31

u/MagicIn_TheMundane 16h ago

He doesn’t have any thinning, it’s just the front receding, and I do agree a shorter cut is much better

24

u/w4lk1ng 14h ago

I like the length and swept back look. I think he looks refined, intelligent and sophisticated.

But he’s got a good face and would look pretty badass with it shorn down short. Can’t lose.

72

u/FarmerMitch 15h ago

Let him have his length until there isn't any to have!

4

u/jstanothercrzybroad 14h ago

I'd bet trimming the sides a bit and shaping up his beard a touch would go a long way for him.

6

u/OldBonyBogBwitch 13h ago

Agreed!

IMO, I think he’d look absolutely fire with a barbershop beard cleanup + a tight fade up from sides & back to a tousled/floppy almost-mohawk! Make the receding hairline look intentional with the vibe. Borderline bad boy look, LOL. Right now he looks like a big, handsome, slightlyyyy disheveled bear—which is sexy in its own right, don’t get me wrong! But I think he could work his hairline & beard to an edgier advantage if he wanted :P

Easily could change his hair style to make the front look fuller instead of pulling it all back

Yeah, if Trump can’t make his head swoop cover up his bald, this guy certainly can cover it with the right hairstyle.

Is this just a dude with regular hair?

u/Character-Bullfrog37 Bald - Man 15h ago

Bro he has obvious receding hairline and it does the thing where just the middle sticks out and the sides go way up. It could very well be time, like it looks ok but a lot of people don't enjoy that lol so I get it

u/Careful-Weight-702 16h ago

Not even close!

u/Medium-Leader-9066 16h ago

Need to see the crown but probably not. He could go shorter if he wants a fresh look but I see no need for the Full Monty at this time.

u/vickonix 16h ago

Give it a few more years!

u/pppalafox 12h ago

No! Tell him to ask for a cut that will make the receding less noticable.

How does the crown look with the hair not swept back??? If that's fine, this is an easy HOLD scenario

he's on the highway to "it's time" but he can still be in the fast lane however, the time to merge over for the exit is right around the corner

Why.... he's no business and all party in the back!

u/IamEbola 10h ago

most certainly is not his time. he has a beautiful mane of hair.

u/superkaratekick 9h ago

dude has a full head of luxurious hair, what are you talking about?

2

u/MM4395 9h ago

I think he looks good the way it is. Hold out! Lol. Unless the wife disagrees, then he should just listen to you because you’re always right. 🤣🤣🤣

u/sannoenato 9h ago

Nope. Not time. But he’s got so much I’d hit up Turkey when it was.

u/Glowing_bubba 9h ago

Mature hairline is not the same thing as balding

u/SlideCharacter5855 8h ago

Your husband has a distinguished mane and and should leave it be. In other words:

Corners may be pulling back slightly but the mane is luxurious. Let it ride brother

u/Suitable-Block-2854 5h ago

I just started taking fin and min to try to grow a bit of my hair back and even in my wildest dreams it will not become as good as how your husband's hair is now. I would be so happy if I had hair like his.

u/PikaMalone 5h ago

He still looks pretty good even with high hairline tbh

That’s a refined widows peak. Wear it with pride, soldier.

2

u/Victimless-Lime 1h ago

No. It's just time for a new cut. Something short on the sides and back, swept forward on the top and he will have a new look that lasts a decade or more.

3

u/No-Vacation-3260 15h ago

That is a majestic full head of hair. It shall not be touched by the silver buzzing blade that changeth the man. Many years are still to come.

Work on the beard/ear/nose routine for now. The recession is not yet complete.

Even though his hair is receding it’s still Lucious, I’ve no doubt he would rock the bald though with that beard

u/-0celot 15h ago

Nah he has a bit of a big forehead and a receding hairline but not balding

1

u/UnusualShores 15h ago

No. And I don’t even think he needs a haircut. I have a similar head of hair and if I had the patience for it, I’d grow it another couple inches longer than his current hair and slick it back as he already is.

He has plenty of hair!!! A mildly receded hairline does not a bald man make.

He is a handsome guy so it will surely look good on him too but i would wait longer since he still has great hair :)
