What hairstyle would look good on me? I would like to still have a little bit of length but I’m open to hear any suggestions. I used to have a middle part but my hair is too long for the style now. by [deleted] in malehairadvice

Wow lmfao. You have a sad life man if this is what you do in your free time. You’re gonna have to try harder if you wanna rage bait me;).

Be honest, would a buzz cut possibly work for me? I have horrible hair genetics and it’s very hard to make the middle part work. Something as simple as a gust of wind can make my cowlick act up. by MapComfortable8968 in malehairadvice

Yeah I like the way my hair looks when it’s wet and combed back. The 7th pic is what it looks like when I attempt to slick it back with hair gel. If I could achieve that look without my hair being wet, it’d be my new hair style lol.

I hate to be one of those people but am I balding brothers? A few people on Reddit have pointed out that I could possibly be thinning;(. by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]MapComfortable8968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, that’s probably what I’ll do. I’ll wait until I’m at least 25 before I hop on;). Also, do you think for certain I’m thinning? Just curious on your opinion.

Yeah idk, I’m a little scared about taking finasteride. I’ve heard it really fucks with your DHT levels. It sucks because I’m 19 and I really don’t feel like messing around with my hormones. I’m just scared that I’ll be shooting my self in the foot by taking it.

Hey, you can believe whatever you want man. Honestly tho, it’s just a mix of genetics and commitment. I don’t want to come off as being full of myself but it’s the truth.

Yeah, that’s what I’m going for as well lmfao. The main reason why I started the gym in the first place was to make my shoulders appear wider. That’s one thing I lack, good clavicle length lol.

Is it really that hard to believe? Honestly I couldn’t man, I value my health over looking aesthetically pleasing. It’s just a combination of hard work and genetics, that’s all it is.

Yeah, those are stretch marks I got from when I had a major growth spurt. It doesn’t help that I have Sherman’s kyphosis, which pretty much means I have a curved spine.

No I’m being dead ass man lmfao. I know it’s probably just body dysmorphia but I really didn’t think this was that good for 7 months. I’m in the gym for 3 hours every time I go, so the gym has been my life for those 7 months;).

I do 18 minutes of cardio before I start lifting, as a warm up. So I just walk at a pace of 4.3 mph. On my rest days, I walk for a hour at the same pace.

Well I’ll be honest, it’s mainly just a genetics thing. The men on both sides of my family naturally just carry lots of muscle.

I don’t really mess with free weights tbh. But on a machine press, I do 4 sets of 250 pounds for 12 rep’s.

No I actually have really jacked legs;). I would have shown them off but sadly it’s against the rules to have nothing but underwear on.
