    Welcome to this Episode of Baldcafe "Live". In this episode we welcome Juan. Juan shares with us his entire journey through hair loss and the moment he removes his hair system for good after being a prisoner to it for over 15 years. Juan talked about how hair loss, going bald and the hair system combined have prevented him from living a life to its fullest. He talks about how his career as a professional actor was put on hold and how it even led to the end of great relationships. Juan decided to leave it all behind, draw a line in the sand and totally move on from balding and concealing it with a hair system.
    This is one of the most impactful and incredible turnarounds I have shared here at Baldcafe Juan, I we are forever grateful.

No more anxiety everytime I have to go somewhere where I can’t wear a hat. I truly wish I would have done it years ago. Funniest thing is to me that I was really worried about, like hardly anyone cares. Like I was ready to get laughs or comments and like hardly anyone even said anything other than it looks great. Like I think my mom was most “shocked” lol I hardly ever where a hat anymore. Like it’s just so freeing. Go to the store, go to dinner, I never stress or feel anxiety about my hair. Like I love not having to wear a hat everywhere. And truly no cares but in the best way. Again I just wished I did it years ago because truly I have not missed having hair for second since I did it

      Thank you so much for your replies.
      I am very happy that you found a solution that works for you. I can't even begin to imagine what you're going through, losing hair at such a young age.
      For me, it started mid- 40s.
      My hairbrush would be filled with hair, and I started noticing hair on my clothes, and on the floor, I was literally driving me nuts.
      I could just feel hair sliding down my body when I was taking showers, clogging up my drain.
      At one point, I was COUNTING every hairstrand in my bathroom sink because I had read somewhere that losing 100 to 150 a day is pretty normal.
      Finally, after searching on the web, I tried Minoxidil.
      After 1 year of consistent use, my hair is so much better.
      I am so relieved. Loosing my hair really took an emotional toll on me.
      It made me very aware that one should literally treat your body as a temple.

    • @yos.5684
      @yos.5684 Před rokem +2

      @@sunshinedrops1486 I know exactly what you're talking about because I spent more than a year counting the hairs I lost after every shower and going crazy over feeling hairstrands in shoulders and back. It's absolute madness and takes over your life. I'm also really glad minoxidil is working for you. I also forgot to mention I take it orally every two days or so, but it's a very small dose (0'5 mg) so I'm not sure to what extent it makes any difference as I started it one year before eucapil and the hairloss was the same.
      I think people without hairloss underestimate how bad it is when it happens to you. I've always had the thickest, beautiful curly brown hair that everyone would compliment me on since I was a child. I just feel it gives me my distinctive look (aside from the fact that we're all more than our hair), but you know what I mean. Seeing my appearance change was something that gave me such a stress every single day I would have palpitations going to sleep every night. I would dread the moment of having a shower. I am really really grateful that as for today, I'd say that even tho I haven't achieved 100% the previous thickness, it's like 90% and visually I look again like I did before the ordeal started. So don't lose hope at least you can maintain what you have. After the 40s it's tricky because mostly every woman I've seen loses some thickness. I'll be ok with it because I understand it's an ageing thing, but I pray it'll be something gentle and not a proper balding process. In any way, if it does happen, I'm determined I'll buy the most beautiful wig I find and keep on with my life. I can't let myself be as miserable about it as I was for almost three years.

    Best thing about being bald.
    1. you stop stressing about hair.
    2. you will save a lot of money from hair products, medicines and barbers
    2. no more bad hairdays.

Be confident…that’s the sexiest thing of all. Believe me. Tom Hardy is not the most handsome of men, but his confidence is through the roof…and my friends & I can’t get enough of him. Women care more about a healthy man, than one with hair. We hate wigs & combovers, bcz we KNOW they’re wigs & a combover ISN’T hiding the balding.

    Good for him! What an amazing supportive friend too. I know from my personal experience losing your hair and trying to hide it is a terrible feeling. You're scared and filled with anxiety, it really plays a toll on your mental health if not taken seriously. You grieve and doubt your worth just thinking about it, it sounds silly but it's true, our self image is so important! Now maybe not ALL men go through the same emotional process when receding but I sure did especially in my early 20s and not to mention I was a performer and was always known for nice hair, that was SO hard. I started closing myself from the world and experiencing things like swimming in the lake, wearing helmets, getting really close with people physically etc. I tried different methods but couldn't save it, started filling it in with powder and keeping the same cut, from far away I think I got away with it but up close in the right light you could tell it wasn't natural but nobody really said anything to me and did that for a while until I had enough and decided to shave it all and actually loved it. I still love it, I love the fact that I'm the only one in my friends and close family to have a bald head, God blessed me with a great beard so I think that definitely helps, plus everyone was accepting and complimented how nice my head was and a lot of girls don't say anything about, most look at me and tell me they love it. I have more confidence and people can sense that. Cheers mate, for sharing your story and overcoming something so big for you. You look fucking great man! And for all the men receding or losing it, SHAVE IT. Save yourself the time, money and heartache brother I'm telling you. Maybe try some holistic methods first, but why pay for surgery? It's expensive, it hurts, the recovery isn't easy, and it's not guaranteed. Maybe a wig but like why? God made you this way on purpose, own it. Bald heads are masculine and look attractive, once you realize this life gets easier and you will be happier! Get a good 5 blade razor, some nice shaving cream, I like ones with aloe, a brush and some aftershave. Hot water on the head and get the razor hot (I prefer to do it after a shower), get the brush wet, you need a little cream on that brush and lather up your head, I like small/medium circles, just get a nice even layer enough to just hide the hair, then start shaving, you'll probably find your grove after a few times. If it feels okay I'll go against the grain everywhere, it can be stubborn, you'll have to go over some spots maybe a few times, clean your razor then rinse your brush with warm water, squeeze any cream left and do a good job! Now I rinse my head with cold water, JUST DO IT lol, I will put my head under the sink, clean it off and cool it down, then gently dry my head take a small amount of after shave in your palm and rub your palms together and gently pat all around your head, it might sting a little but it goes away fast, it feels good it wakes you up, you will get good at it really fast the more you do it.

    Oh my god, he looks so much better! It's crazy how many people who deal with hair loss look much better with a shaved head. He's got a great, round head, so he looks good with the shaved cut. When I first saw him on this video, his hair didn't match his beard and it looked weird. Now he looks fine. Well done, hope you're doing okay.

    I worked with an older guy who wore a piece. It looked terrible and eventually he broke down and told us he couldn’t afford a new one. We were encouraged that he would even talk about it. Over the course of a few weeks we got him to shave up and get a little sun. When he came back to work clean, people were blown away how much better he looked. He couldn’t thank us enough once he got used to it.

    I did the exact same thing for a client that wanted to pay me to style all his toupee’s I told him that he would look better without it and now he’s so glad I was able to guide him in making the decision.
    In the end I lost a lot of money from styling his toupees but his happiness is worth every single cent.

    As a black woman, one of most empowering moments of my life was cutting off all my damaged relaxed uneven hair and going natural and embracing my natural curls. It was like starting over again. Yes, I did face backlash and ridicule because it was not trendy back then when I first did so but everything negative everyone told me would happen like with not being able to land a job or no one wanting to date because I would be bald headed and look like a man never came to pass. Because I was still able to land jobs and the dating experience was better. So now, my mentality is it's only hair. It may grow back. It may not grow back. But like that Indie Arie song, I am not my hair. I am the soul which lies underneath.

      @Fabian Kirchgessner interacting with men on a daily basis is a fact of life. Worrying about whether those men find we women attractive is not. Obviously you can’t grasp the idea of a woman who could care less about what a man thinks of her appearance. But we exist and we are very large in number. So keep hiding behind your toxic masculinity if that makes you feel safe. But you’re hiding inside a smaller and smaller clique.

I kid you not, mere months between events. I WOULD tell this guy he looks great, but he doesn't want to hear from some ancient grey-haired cow like myself. Sometimes we have to take that leap and accept ourselves as we are, knowing not all interactions are perfect, but MOST are certainly more comfortable because we aren't hiding anymore. The power comes from within ourselves. But I'm truly sorry you aren't offered 20% off on Tuesdays for your beautiful natural 'fro. My gf wears her hair natural (and slightly wild) and I can honestly say it's the hottest thing I've ever seen. [People assume I must be very rich when they see me with her, lol!]

The great thing about him that attracted me to him wasn't his looks, but his humbleness and awesome personality. Anyway I suggested he shave it all off. He was mad at first but after some years later he let me shave it all off. He had great compliments from his family and friends. Now I have been shaving his head for 18 yrs. We're 25yrs happily married.🥰
