Comment on Men with shaved heads are perceived to be more masculine

Comments

I think there's something to it about the active choice of a shaved head - I started going bald fairly early (around 18), and shaving my head really seemed to change people's perceptions of me for the better.

Of course, it could just be that I became more comfortable and confident after it.

Well part of that is that (if you do it right, too thin or lanky and you look like a cancer patient) purposely shaved bald looks far better then naturally thinning.

That it does look better probably helped with your comfort level and confidence.
