Want to share your story? Email Me at Baldcafe (at) outlook (dot) com Welcome to the video. In this one I challenged Dean Gleeson, who was recently voted the UK's Best Barber to cut my grown out thinning and Balding hair. There were 2 rules to the challenge. No shaved head and no trying to make it look like I had a full head of hair. We wanted to get a cool style out of what I had and I think Dean absolutely did just that. Coining this one the "Baldcafe Double Blend"

This man DOES NOT MISS 🙅🏽♂️
A true pioneer of mens mental health
Mad love thank you 🤝
Power move bro!
@@Baldcafe looks good on this style you should keep this style as your permanent hair style
Rocking the toilet seat haircut 😎
😂
Lol the double blend looks ridiculous, but rocking it is automatically level 100 confidence and level 150 swag 😃.
This is so ridiculous yet admirable 😂😂
Well summed up
@@Baldcafe Why ridiculous?
barber be like: "it ain't much, but it's honest work"
@@baldnbearded seriously, i could’ve cut thus guys hair in 30 seconds 😲🤣
@@Baldcafe I hope I'm not stepping on your feet but watching your transformation made me cu m
Man's looking like a handsome Steve Jobs
No offense intended at all but I really don't like it. Definitely would be sticking with the fully shaved head, but I appreciate the experiment :)
No offense taken. This was a good thing to try.
barber got too fancy with it. shit looks wild...be a good wwe character lol..i think hawk from road warriors had similar cut
I agree. Worth a try, but the dark hair simply is creating a framing device to showcase a bald top of the head, which does tend to look old man ish. Id go just low stubble all round, not necessarily super bold to the skin.
I like that crusty the clown look
It looked better faded than the original but I think it's all or nothing. Shaved with a beard all the way 👌
yea this aint working lol
I think it looks good in my opinion
@@jshaka3769 for the wwe or a movie maybe
@@LITMOVIESCENES nah it looks good . Period .
@@LITMOVIESCENES looks way better than a balding mop ontology. This looks better than clean shaven bald.
Your wife being so supportive is amazing man. Love this channel.
Your vulnerability combined with your confidence is quite lovely. No loss of masculinity at all, just the opposite! This was a privilege to watch, as a female who loves seeing haircuts (male and female) this was very refreshing, and totally positive.
At first I was like "just do a complete shave", but then with the turtleneck pictures at the end, this really works for the "smart look", gives off Steve Jobs vibes, an awesome option for men, that want to own the half-bald head look!
Awesome video as always!
This is EXACTLY what we need! People suffering hair loss shouldn't feel pressured to either shave it all off or to get a hair transplant/wig. You've still got hair, why not have fun with it? The cut feels a little unusual, as we don't see balding men with dope haircuts, but it definitely looks good. Can see it catching on, hope more men will embrace their hair, no matter how much they've got 💯
Yup, might as well make the best of the cards your dealt with. If you remember the tag team wrestlers the road warriors from back in the day. The cut reminds me of animal, lol!
The thing is, this doesn’t even look bad, if this haircut was a common haircut you wouldn’t even think twice about it. I hope this is the start of a trend. Your a legend mate👏🏻
Yea shit look fire
Yes!
All balding ppl should become heihachi Mishima lol
Agreed! It’s not “common” at all so we say it looks bad but in reality it’s pretty clean 🧼
No it doesn't look good and will never ever catch on. Like the saying goes "less is more"
This dude looks sharp with a clean shaved head and the beard
Interesting that you are showing that bald men still have options for hair styling, as the loss of having an option is what bothers a lot of people. Well done. looks good.
I wonder how it would look if the sides were buzzed into lightning bolts or some other abstract design? It might be fun to experiment with. Ultimately you’d look great with any style! 😊
Exactly what I was thinking. Couple of tram lines on one side to break it up a bit. It will take the emphasis off the top a bit then as the eyes will be drawn to the lines.
Ya, abstract designs with negative lines too
Baldness really sucks . I have dealt with it since my early 20’s . So glad that it doesn’t totally consume me nowadays like it did when I was younger.
I honestly think that is a terrific haircut that is professionally executed. He worked with the available hair and created some remarkable contrast or fade. That should be part of your arsenal. I think style is just what we feel confident wearing, regardless of it may first be perceived. If you're confident wearing any style, people will "perceive" it positively. So it is more about the person's confidence than anything else.
Nope! My vote goes to shave it all off. Much better. But keep the beard.
Fax. It looks terrible. My first thoughts are, this guy's trying to hold on to something that isn't there.
@@rondoespsych5901 It was an interesting attempt but after looking at the results, no fucking way I walk out of there like that if it was me. Shave it all off and move on. Quite confident to rock it but it does not look even remotely good to me.
i think it’s cool. there speaks only the anxiety out of you
I think he looks pretty good, very elegant, mature and powerful imo.
Totally agree
Damn your beard length is on point mate!
It looks good, clean and sharp. I'd definitely rock that look.
"As your barber, I advise you to grow it longer. Bleach it, and sport this Hulkamania bandana to tie it all together for a proper all season look."
Dude what a great idea!!! I love how your having so much fun with channel and watching u grow as a host. Thanks for the entertainment and the education.
I love it mate, might try it myself. Also you dress really stylish dude. Hints and tips on clothing would be cool too!
Look with hair is better before haircut, but shaved head is the best solution
The toilet seat🤣🤣🤣
You look great harry
I like it! It definitely takes balls to pull it off with confidence. It gives a balding guy the opportunity to have a great haircut experience at a barbershop - without it being a headshave. Well done!
Like an impotent guy going to a hooker for a great experience. Lol
Seems like a lot of time and effort to achieve a look that most of us were trying to avoid in the first place.
In my opinion it is better, cleaner than the before.
Because I was balding for a long time I developed some sort of anxiety for the barbers. Even if I had the balls to get this hairstyle, I wouldn't keep it. Having it all trimmed at a zero would still be my preference.
Nice experiment
Pretty much with you on this 👑
I think it looks phenomenal! So boss. Love the video! Thanks for posting.
I think the real challenge is to walk with this cut cause it’s so unusual
Video coming soon 👌
@@Baldcafe Waiting for it man 👍
The double blend - men all over the UK, balding or not, are going to embrace this look I'm sure. Looks smashing mate well done
It looks good on you mate especially with the beard. I’m getting some Steve Jobs/Keith from the Prodigy vibes! With your help I have really come to terms with my own balding and am really comfortable now with anything between a grade 1 and zero guard and love it! That said I have been tempted to grow it out and see what happens! Thanks always for your inspiration mate 😎
This is really 'Dr Phil" meets the confidence of the "Anchor Man"
Looks great. Very masculine and says your confident unlike all the rest.
Damn… Great to see the Chanels jumped in Subs, good work bro!
Your video challenged me to rid my scalp of the balding/thinning top and sport a shaved top "power haircut". I've had a total shave before, but this cut proves to me, friends, and family that I'm OK being bald and actually PROUD and good looking, with this new "old man haircut".
I encourage other guys to give it a try.
I think you actually looked good after this cut. Imo for a bald man there should be a golden rule: no turnovers. If you respect that rule everything's fine. 🙌
That looks great! It is a shame hair grows so fast. How nice would it be to keep it just like that for awhile? Before you know it, the day is over. A sleep cycle happens, and when you wake up, it slowly becomes not quite the same. It really does look so great. So different. You must have felt one of a kind. Nobody that you see has that style. Amazing work. Amazing stuff.
Yeah when you wake up the following day the hair is never the same
I like it. Keep it til the end of the year so it can be a 2022 trend
Power move for sure! I do admire the guys who can rock the donut with confidence. At my age I stick with the shave but I’m trying to get more comfortable with the shadow. I’m quite pale so there’s really no hiding it even with a fresh shave.
I like it! And I absolutely LOVE his attitude about it all.
I'm trying to help my father with this very issue. Since his 20s, he's worn that 70s combover. Since I now have to shave his face and cut his hair, I told him I was going to look at what else he can do. I appreciate this video so much!
Looks great! I have a similar hairline/MPB. I’ve shaved it cleaned, had a buzz cut, and grown it out to see how things look. Right now it’s pretty long on top I feel like I need to do something different and will definitely consider this cut. I know a lot of people say just shave it off and I personally don’t care for the look on myself but think a lot of others can pull it off.
Man I just love your videos, thanks for sharing and for being so authentic!!! That's so important for us men!
Looks super good! Impressed!
Very nice! I will be recommending to my balding clients. Thank you
I saw this the day you posted it and thought it looked ridiculous. Rewatching it today, I love it.
Should of added a design like greek leaf crown. That would of been dope!
That’s a great shout
Classic, love that u keep trying these new experiments.
Think you should try next a full comb over. That would be epic.
Great channel btw.
😂 that would take some dedication. Thanks for the support man.
Man your haircut looks awesome dude & the beard goes along with it. Keep that haircut man. That's you
Looks surprisingly great !
As ever good inspirational work !
It’s all right. Maybe a little different, but it looks good. For myself, with a shaved head, I just am so happy to be done with the barbershop routine and expense. Not that I didn’t like my barber, but it’s just one less thing to worry about. Thanks for having the guts to do this.
That is a work of art, love it. Big balls too walk it though.
The Official "Bald Cafe Double Blend" Is here. Let me know if you’d like a walk and talk, “What I really think” about this cut video 🤝
Lol
I do enjoy a good walk and talk
I really appreciate and I enjoyed watching this video. The discussion you had with your Barber was very good and brought up some very important points. Hats off to both you and your Barber !
@@JasonKB the second this ☝🏻
Yes
I prefer the full shaved head but of course to each their own :)
That's definitely a brave cut, I feel self conscious after 3 days of not buzzing it. I use the gold trimmers he uses, great set of clippers for a zero buzz, a review from you would be great!
What’s that shaver called mate
@@lolctulol123 BaByliss Pro Super Motor Skeleton
I got it in gunmetal though, expensive but cuts very short and I haven't even zero gapped it.
@@Springwater786 awesome I’ll have a gander thanks :)
What brand and model of clippers bro? Ive been looking for a new one for a while, need a really close shave...
This. Fuck being bald is a lot of maintenance
This double blend is absolutely amazing ! I have done a bit of experimenting myself by shaving my bald spot in back especially and forward as well. This type of style actually highlights and shows off how good male pattern baldness actually looks . I thought I was the only one so I'm glad you're rocking this ! High-5 to you Harry !
Well done harry! Top man! You have really inspired me ! Keep up it! You have really helped my confidence and made me feel better about myself🙌👍
Cool to try new styles, but I think smooth shave looks best 👍
Yo I got a full head of hair and not much mpb history in my family … but I low-key wanna do this it’s kinda fire, like idk if I could rock the full bald but this is kinda the level of badass I want
that looks so GOOD!!
He's a great barber u gotta give him that!
I honestly feel you can rock any hairstyle....ive seen all your videos and you pull off all the looks😎
Been looking for a video like this!! Someone brave enough to do the "real bald fade." Proper, salute to you mate!! Would love for you to get Wes Watson a motivational/fitness youtuber on your channel! He recently shaved his head. Awesome work bruv, keep it up!! CHEERS!
Bro! You make it work!!! 🔥🔥
That fade is colllddd
Fantastic channel and helps so many people around the UK struggling with hair loss also barber looks the business in his profession, plym on their way to Wembley will cheer you up mate
Hit play as fast as I could. Great idea for content, love to see what the best can do when they don't have a lot to work with. Suits you better all gone but love the confidence to give it a try and show us the results.
i really doubted this until the end. It looks dope on you!
Something of a metaphor 🤝 Thanks for watching
I did not go to barber for almost 25 years now. I am a huge fan of Your CZcams work. I like this Lenin Style. I can see You were a little bit unsecure, with new idea, but now You can even enjoy during regular barber visits.
Looks so good on him!
I assumed I'd hate it, but straight-on, it's surprisingly ok. Not the best, but a cool change of pace!
You are the best Harry!
Great video. I think the all shaved head is still way better! I shaved my head back in June and I’m loving it! Guys nobody gives a damn if you rock a bald head! Embracing the bald head or shaved head is true confidence!
I'm just impressed that how easily you make every bald look, Sexyy. ❤️❤️❤️
Looks pretty dope to be fair haha. I like the short beard 👍 Keep it mate.
About a month into the beard now… not sure what to do with it.
@@Baldcafe I always keep it about that length and sharp it up with the single blade razor + trimmer. But yeah thats not low maintenance 🤣.
Y’know what I actually don’t hate it! Personally I’d probably fade it a little lower or less intense so there’s more weight on the sides but this is very intriguing… might just try it myself!
I agree. Lower fade and the bottom should probably be a 1/2 or a 1 and then up to a 1.5 or a 2 blended.
Go for it bro! 💪🏻
YO YOU ARE ROCKING THE TURTLE NECK, ALL BLACK, AND CHAIN!
Haha I actually love this look, I've never seen a fade on a bald head but I like it
Definitely like it! it’s cool to step out of the box 📦 & try something new!
Ya that was definitely a fire cut came out clean didn't expect that but deff good
Holy f*******k so great im going bald at the crown but have pretty long hair and im seriously after watching this gonna go tomorrow and get this same haircut.. ill let you know how i get on and get pics somehow over to you. great job its a mont haircut. total class
I like it. It's nice to have different options 👍
Looks good!
I think this looks so suave and cool. Especially in combination with that outfit. I will absolutely make this my signature hair cut.
Great video! Quality cut, but your DIY buzz/shaves look better for you. I’ve been a blade shaver for years, and based on your earlier video I’ve let it grow out here and there. Got to tell you it’s been good. A quality head+face shave takes me 15-20 mins. It’s nice to skip that and have a second coffee and watch some bald cafe on the days where I want to chill in the morning. Keep the videos coming, and consider broadening the channel. The latest content shows that all gentlemen can appreciate what you do, not just your fellow bald dudes. Thanks
I would call this the 'prince William fade' LOL we salute you for trying this out
To experiment with options someone could try is cool and part of what you do so well on your channel. I thought at some point towards the end you might say, ok let’s just shave it off. Nope, that was legit bro walking out with the cut. 🤘👍
I had my doubts before but it looks killer with the turtleneck and chain my man.
thats a brave cut, definetly different, its a statement . I feel that if it was common it would look cool, u look like a film star at the end looks sharp
A very entertaining and interesting video. I prefer a shaved head but I have to admit it looks fresh and looks good on you Harry, you are lucky haha. Nice clothes too 👍🏼
Didn't think I would but I actually I like it!
Looks great!
Fair enough haha. Time for us baldies to modernise the monk cut.
Real
Probably going to do this. Thanks man
Looks good either way with this cut or completely shaved off
it actually looks good, might be the fashion style as well
Looks great imho. This was my go to cut 10 years ago and I was always satisfied with the final look. The problem though is that in order to keep the cut looking it’s best, I had to have it redone every month otherwise it aged me by a decade. I wound up buying a pair of clippers, and did a weekly shave to the scalp.
Looking dapper my man😎
Looks great man.. 🖤
The thing with this hairstyle it screams well groomed and an effort was made at looking quite presentable.
EPIC haircut!
