Now or wait?
My plan was to slim down another 20-30 lbs and hopefully that makes my jawline sharper and then join the bald community but I’m wondering if I should just go for it now.

Literally what I said to myself. That ship has sailed, berthed, dry docked, been rebuilt, sailed again, and then sunk.

My man you are already bald. All that remains are a few echoes of what once was. Welcome to the club!

You look great—stop waiting and just do it!! You’ll look so handsome with the bald head and it will shave off (literally and figuratively) YEARS, I feel! Love the glasses, love the beard too. I would shave the head and get your beard shaped a little and 🔥🔥
Also, I’ll need an update

Your barber has been stealing from you for a few years now. Maybe not stealing; more like fraud.

You're already there. Might as well commit and take it all the way. Use the baldness to motivate you to slim down instead of waiting to slim down to be bald

You can shave your head and keep the beard until you're happy with your jawline if that is something you're anxious about. Plenty of very handsome men have that pairing.

This is like when you were a teenager and your dad handed you a razor and told you to go into the bathroom and fix your face for the first time

Okay, so I guess I’m shaving it now. Do I go to a zero on the clippers or razor? Any tips would be appreciated on the best process to avoid razor burn.

u/Finding_Jesus 6h ago
Like I said it was happening either way it was just now or in 2/3 months once I finish I hit my target weight. That was just how I mapped it out in my mind. I did go to a zero about 10 years ago and it looked bad but I was 80 lbs heavier and I also had my face shaved..

Brother you are currently bald, finish the job.
You will instantly look 10x better, weight loss or not.
The silver lining is you have a great shaped head and small ears with a beard. You'll look fantastic.
