r/bald↗

Lose your hair, not your head.

Welcome to r/bald! Our philosophy is simple: embrace bald and strive to make the world a more bald-friendly place. We’re often sold the idea that bald is bad. That’s bullshit. As we grow and mature everyone experiences the aging process a little differently, for most of us here, that includes varying degrees of hair-loss. It is natural. And it is nothing to be ashamed of - here we’ll support each other and learn to take pride in our baldness.
