“I saw their signs that said ‘The bald John Cena.’ They pushed me into going to see what my options were. I now have a routine: red-light therapy, minoxidil, vitamins, shampoo, conditioner — and I also got a hair transplant last November. I hate the fact that if there wasn’t so much shame around it, I’d have gotten it done 10 years ago. I thought I was alone, but seven or eight out of 10 (men) suffer from thinning or baldness. They don’t do anything except move your hair, one by one, from one area to another. If somebody’s going to sweat me for that, I don’t think there’s any shame in that. It completely changed the course of my life.”
There’s no shame in it, and hey, if you’re an actor you manage your looks like business assets because they are.
But also, man, you can just shave and be done with it. Seriously, it just slots next to brushing your teeth every morning and you don’t have to ever think about it ever again. If there was a shaving equivalent for every other thing that makes men insecure I genuinely believe we’d live in a perfect utopia instead of a fascist hellscape.
Call me a woke snowflake libtard, but surely if 70 to 80% of any demographic suffer with anything then that’s a systems issue?
Shut up, you woke snowflake libtard!
MMPBGA!
But in all seriousness, male pattern baldness can range from a general thinning, to changes like elevated widows peaks, to concentrated areas like John had. Suffer can be* a strange term to use, as it doesn’t cause physical pain - but an argument could definitely be made for emotional/psychic pain.
Oh sure, I get that. What I’m saying is that emotional pain comes from a culture that denies aging (and/or yknow rampant PED use) rather than accepts it.
