Someone took a picture of the back of my head at Pokemon GO Fest in June and I noticed a weird bald spot. I didn't think anything of it, but over the past few months it just got worse and worse. It became a huge point of stress and confusion (which I know wasn't helping anything) and I was in denial because I've been trying to grow my hair out again.

Not sure what pushed me over the edge this evening, but I grabbed my clippers and closed my eyes.

Et voilà!

I'm still planning a trip to the derm because I'd like to know the root cause, but this'll hopefully take the edge off until then.

Let hair grow for 11 years and started thinning as soon it got to where I wanted it. Bald at 29, yay.

Quick edit: Thank yall for all the positive messages. It really does mean a whole lot.

One more quick edit: While I appreciate the intent in trying to show what more I could do, please stop sending my pictures through AI.
