I was inspired to shave my hair when every time I saw a woman with her head shaved I felt her self confidence and self acceptance. Immediately after shaving my head, (I use a 2 comb and let it grow to a four comb), I was struck by the subtle and not so subtle judgments as people saw me. It took a few weeks to discover that I just didn’t care about their judgement, and they were welcome to it. And that I now walk a little taller and with more self confidence. It’s been several years and I can’t imagine going back.

It really is the little things in life that bring us joy, like a shaved head, a cute dog or music! Thanks for sharing these insights, and I'm glad you've felt some freedom with this decision you made, Anthony :)

Loved this. I've been shaving my head since 2007 and it's been freeing. Love the music, too. You have a great voice.

Dude, I would stress so much and do everything I could to “hide it”. Since shaving/embracing... never looked back either.

Well, one could argue that by shaving, you ARE hiding it. As in, hiding your thinning hair or bald spots. The bigger goal is feeling comfortable in your own skin, hair or no hair.

@@malekkos91 Having gone through this, there is another element that you might be missing. I agree that the goal is to just feel comfortable, but the fear is "losing" the hair and what will happen. It's like an anxiety based on the future as much as it is not loving how it looks in the present, perhaps. What I'm finding has happened for me is by shaving it off, I'm "owning" it and realizing that even when it's completely gone, I'm perfectly okay! I actually was pondering on whether it would bother me to grow my hair back now-the step to shave it was basically facing the fear of what happens if I don't have hair. Now that I know it's not a big deal and have embraced it, I think it would generally stay. Just some thoughts.

• Just found your video while looking for "Shaving my head videos" because i just shaved my head today all the way to the skin for the first time and I thought i looked kind of funny lol thanks for the video 😀

Beautiful! Both the message and the harmonies!

Thanks. I was trying to work up to shaving my head. This was a good reflection on it.

Great video! I did the same thing and am just hitting the one year mark. I agree with you, my only regret is waiting. Stay well.

Especially loved the music, the long take, and being candid. ❤

Great video and I totally get what you mean. My adult son was always stressing over his thinning hair and, recently, he shaved it all off. He loves the new look and it really suits him. Now he doesn't need to stress or be self-conscious about his thinning hair any more. :)

How did it go?

Great video Anthony. I was the same, I used to be worried about going bald. The idea of losing my hair was like losing this precious family heirloom. But now after a few years of shaving my head, that worry just seems silly to me. It's good to just let go, it's a liberating ritual for me now when I shave my head. BTW that is a sweet guitar.

Nice intro!! I typically use minimalism as a philosophy more than a hard and fast rule. It relates a lot to mindfulness as well. I made my first video about minimalism two days ago. The connection between minimalism and mental peace and clarity is an upcoming video I have 🌿

Looks great Anthony. This gave me the confidence to shave my head as well. Have been losing my hair for some time now.

You look great and the combo of shaved head and beard gives you a bit of gravitas.

I think you look great! Love the look on you. I can relate in a different way, I was born with curly hair, all my life I have spent so much money on products, or blowing out my hair, my husband always told me I should embrace my curls, well during the pandemic I also decided to stop trying to have straight hair. It has been liberating, funny I have people stopping me telling me how blessed I am to have soft beautiful curls. The best part is my hair doesn’t frizz anymore, once I just let my hair be what God untended I am sure your feeling the same sense of liberation as I am, it’s freeing....

Slow dancing in a burning room what a song! Anyway...you look great buddy! I was thinning at the crown area, and the temples so I decided to shave my head. I definitely agree with you with doing it sooner. Ever since I've done it...I wouldn't want my hair back as it's the " new me "

Thank you.

New Year’s Eve. And I want to do it. Very scared lol

Well, I just shaved my head down to a number 2 as same situation. I've been wanting to do this for a long time and right now I won't lie I'm very confused, but this video has made me feel a little bit better so thank you

Yes! More clips of singing/playing in your videos please!!! 😀

My hair is thinning and I have the same problems you mentioned. Ive been thinking about the same thing. And I think Ill do it, thanks.

I also shaved my head during the quarantine... I'm in my late twenties and saw a recessing line and just wanted to know how I would look. It's so liberating when you don't need to worry about how your hair looks; You just wake up in the morning, wash your face, and are ready. Shaving once a week is also a cool experience. Feeling my skin like it's some part of me that I never felt before. But after some months, I decided to let my hair grow again because I wanted to try some products and felt a bit lazy shaving every week since I cut my hair twice a year.

Awesome video...Making the decision to remove scalp hair and divest ego from a 'hairstyle" is a big one for some men. But it is life changing...confidence building...and very handsome!

I so want to shave my hair! The problem is I'm afraid of the stares and hair has always been a part of me that I would get compliments often. Can't imagine how freeing it must feel having a bald head and walking around people! 19, female

Anthony, that is awesome! I keep my hair as a buzz cut. I always shave it to a quarter of an inch. Though it has been completely bald twice. I was like you always thinking about my hair because it is thick and wavy, in a bad way. It would take me 45 minutes everyday to get it to a point where I was comfortable walking outside. Now I don’t think about it. I think I look better because you can actually see my face. Of course, people ask me why it is shaved. A lot of people assume I am a lesbian and I have been asked if I have cancer. And I agree not having all the hair stuff is fantastic. No hairdryer, no hair brush, no, gel, no hair ties. Only my clippers and my Ayurvedic shampoo! 😊

Dude you have a great skull shape and beard, you were made for shaved head style! I just did it yesterday, it was time to let go lol. Honestly, even with a slight tan line, I have nothing to embrace - I think I look way better than with hair and was just holding on to something that didn’t look good, but was just with me for a long time…

I had the same experience. You look cool btw.

My husband was hesitant to do it but he looks great! He’s been doing it about 5 years and is only 32.

me too and i love it. Never going back.

Paris, France calling.... Anthony, not only do you look great with a bald head, but your body language has changed. You seem more relaxed and more confident in your skin. Your decision has triggered something very positive within you. I would like to be brave enough to face my complexes and do something about it. You are a good example. Thanks again. Maureen x

i just did it once, i did it again and i can't go back, and then i came across a quote, that is life changing, less is more. max hair i would grow if a buzz cut

I would love to have that confidence. I’m balding... but don’t have the courage.

I am 22 and experienced some hair thining don’t know if it is permanent or due to stress but i shaved it off✊🏼

I guess the equivalent for women is to stop dyeing their hair and have the confidence to go grey.

I shaved my head bald september 29 of 2022 due to trich and i have a lot of videos of my journey on my channel. it was the best decision ever, i'm so glad i did it. it felt so liberating and empowering, truly life changing 😍 i plan on keeping it virgin til the day i die lol.

I had fairly long hair most of my life, until 1998, when I started buzzcutting and shaving my head. I'll never go back to long hair.

Glad you enjoy your shaved head. However, I've always found the thinning bald spots cute on guys.

its crazy how so many people think they have to shave their heads once they start balding. Finasteride + minoxidil would've completely reversed your thinning, you didn't even have a bad hairline to worry about.

@@smithcoffee8 true but i dont think its a large percentage, being a non responder isn't the norm. And even rarer to not respond to dutasteride, which a doctor would next prescribe someone. And even failing that, there's a whole other list of anti-androgens to try like ru55841, fluridil, alfatradiol. My point being that so many people aren't educated in what causes hairloss and how it can be easily prevented in a lot of cases, it would help a lot of people suffering in silence who don't want to go bald in their 20's or 30's and save a lot of peoples mental health.

I started getting grey hair in high school. Receding hairline since my late 20s. Been shaving my head for a long time now (I'm 47). To me, keeping it short/shaved it makes me look younger. I rarely actually shave my head unless I need to dress up. Shaving is too much work because if you don't shave it every other day, it gets too long to shave with an electric razor.. Maybe a day or two more and you can no longer do it very well with a Bic without first trimming it down via other means. So now it's twice the work. So what I end up doing is every week..or up to two weeks, I buzz my head and face with a good quality electric trimmer, and that's it..no shaving. And not with any of those fancy manscaping trimmers.. just the old school metal "buzzers" you find at barber shops. It leaves a '5 o clock shadow' but doesn't take long and I'm good for another week or two. Minimal. TBH, your hair was not bad at all. But if it makes you feel better about yourself, then by all means. I say shave the beard off too. :)

noice 👌🏼

I personally also think its just so much more flexible. Less time in the shower, and its so much more comfy in summer days aswell. WIth hair you ll get sweaty and it starts to look bad. But bald, you can legit just pour some cold water over your head anywhere you are to get refreshed again and you dont need to worry about the hair drying again or anything like that. I also think bald feels much better while sleeping somehow, a bald head on a pillow feels different than having hair everywhere.

I don't get it. YOu look better with hair. You weren't even close to bald. Not only that you were a PERFECT candidate for a hair transplant which only cost about 4k. I did it years ago and now have a full head of hair. Yes hair transplants are forever. Minimalist? You call having to shave your head EVERY day being a minimalist? Honestly in this video it sounds like you are trying to convince yourself more than the audience.
