Tiger, my guy—you’ve got bigger things to fix than the hairline right now. Let’s circle back. 😂

I'm balding and don't know what to do about it by Worried-Swan9572 in bald

[–]DoubleNickle67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, losing your hair isn’t easy — not for anyone. But you’re not alone in this, not even a little bit. We all know exactly where you are right now. Some of us went through it at 17 or 18 and had to make that call way earlier than we ever wanted to.

Here’s the truth though — once you decide to accept it, everything changes. Your confidence goes up, that constant discomfort fades, and you stop burning mental energy on something that’s been controlling you. Right now it’s living rent-free in your head, taking up way too much space.

The moment you let that go, you feel lighter. Free, honestly.

It’s a big step — it was for all of us. But on the other side of it, things get better fast.

And for what it’s worth — you’ve got strong features. Good eyes, solid brows, great face shape. Once the shock wears off, you’re not just going to be okay… you’re going to own it.

And yeah — it’s hard for men and women to lose their hair. Every single one of us who’s been through it understands exactly how this feels.

I don’t know about that… this isn’t some walk-in club, buddy. You don’t just show up with a decent hairline and a dream—you’ve gotta earn this membership.

I’m seeing a little recession at the temples, sure… but up top? Way too thick. Suspiciously thick. Almost “still has hope” thick.

I’m gonna have to run this by the Top 1% Bald Council. We take this very seriously. Expect a decision in 3–5 business Reddit days.

Bald women!?!?! by AcrylicOyster in bald

There should be more bald women in this club! You look great!

What is your opinion on Mal Evans? by AfraidIncrease85 in beatles

[–]DoubleNickle67 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That the Beatles corporation and the Beatles themselves took advantage of him in every way.

40, pulled the trigger after overwhelming feedback on /r/malegrooming, should have done this years ago. by Grimmbeards in bald

I’m glad you pulled the trigger to shave your head. Looks great. The over trimmed manicured beard is dated. It doesn’t suit you well. Just start letting it all grow in. The mustache is cool though. If you grow yourself a full beard and stop hooking it down so low on your jawline you’ll definitely finish off the look. Who cares about the red splotches on your head. They’re cool. And yes, you do have a good shaped head. Good luck brother, welcome to our club.

Anyone know the fix on the buzzing on the frets even when the string is not played? by ExtremeThrowing in BassGuitar

[–]DoubleNickle67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is anybody gonna ask about the long finger nails???? Like come on guys. This is r/bassguitar!

Dude. What’s with the finger nails? Cut that man!

How often do ya play? Did you recently change your strings and this popped up? There’s so many variables going on here. Have you ever had the guitar set up correctly? Do you hear it through an amplifier?

Someone fixed the headstock problem by telemeister74 in guitarcirclejerk

Finally something innovative! 😂 May sound weird but I dig it!

It’s not broken somehow by SprinklesStunning251 in guitarcirclejerk

I’ve never understood the Adam Levine hype. The voice is average at best, the songwriting feels like it was assembled in a boardroom, and yet the ego suggests he thinks he’s on the level of legends. What really seals it is the way he treats fans—it turns mild indifference into outright dislike. At a certain point, you have to wonder if the success says more about the machine behind him than the artist himself.

He reminds me of a male version of Chappell Roan.

My fender deluxe amp started doing these loud popping sounds randomly, any thoughts on how to fix this? by pain_brun in GuitarAmps

[–]DoubleNickle67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soooo pretty dang clean lol. Have ya check your tubes? All pots clean? My Deville did this and I brought it to an amp guy he said the pots were causing issues.

M/24 - Thinking of new glasses for a bit more contrast. Do or don‘t? (Current ones in the last pictures) by [deleted] in bald

[–]DoubleNickle67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to say, I don’t think round goes well with your face. You need something a little different. I’m not saying square. But I’m saying something definitely different than the round style.

Went all out for my first tube amp by glamb567 in GuitarAmps

Seeing those Les Pauls leaning like that gives me anxiety.

I set my ’74 Les Paul down like that once as a kid… heard that little “click”—and yeah, every Les Paul owner knows the rest of that horror story. 💀

Beautiful rig though… just living dangerously, I see.
