"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Alright suckas...I'm rockin my new hairpiece and LOVIN' it!

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Women are fine with a shaved head. Spending the money on something else would serve you so much better.

I think you usually give good advice here, but with all due respect, I don't think you can speak for "women" in general on this one here.
I don't see any of the females I know who won't prefer a guy with "great" hair over someone who goes for the shaved head, anything else being equal. Maybe it has something to do with age, most of them are in their early 20s, 22-24, none of them is above 29. Maybe as people get older, being bald or "shaved head" is much better accepted.
Anyway congratulations to STR8UP.
On the other hand though, I can understand him wanting to try something different. I mean, he did say that he's had a shaved head for what? Eight years or something?
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Trying something different by growing out your own hair is one thing...but paying well over $100 a month on hairpieces you glue or tape to your head for that change? I just think it's a waste of money...especially if you are doing it to try to be more attractive to women because women like shaved heads a lot. It also screams "I'm insecure about myself because I'm losing my hair". In the long run, I just don't think it's a wise choice. I don't care how good the glue or tape is or how real it looks...I can picture it now...being in the middle of rough sex, all sweaty and grabbing the guy's head and his hair coming off in her hand. Just stick with what is natural...really.italostud said:
Who said I was paying over $100 per month?Wyldfire said:
Even if I was, my mortgage payment is about 45 times that much....what's the big deal?
If you would have read the whole post instead of just replying to the title you would see that each piece costs about $150 and needs to be replaced every 2-6 months. You really should be more open minded, or at least read the post before you comment.
I specifically stated that I am not doing this to attract women. I am doing it for myself.
That's the biggest crock of B.S. I've ever heard.
Says who? You?
I'm sure people have plenty to say about me when I'm not around, but I doubt that "insecure" is a term that pops of very often.
In what way is it not a wise choice?
It doesn't work that way sweetie. People ride roller coasters and practice martial arts while wearing hairpieces.
This confirms that the only reason you are so prejudice against wearing hair is because you have no idea what it's all about. You really should open your mind to new things.....you can miss out on a lot if you choose to live your life this way.
So if tomorrow YOU happened to discover that you have alopecia (yes, women can lose their hair too) and a hairpiece was your only natural looking and viable option, would you spend a few hundred bucks per year or just live with it? That's what I thought.
I was worried about how my close friends would react when they found out what I had done (you can't rely on everyone to be open to these kinds of things), but so far it has been nothing but positive. Any kind of negativity that was expressed BEFORE I took the plunge quickly turned into a big thumbs up as soon as they saw the finished product.
I was REALLY concerned about how the girl who I had cut my hair would react, since I hang out with her pretty much weekly and she is the one who hooks me up with all of her friends. She had the same misconceptions that everyone else has but once I showed her how real it looks and feels and how strong the adhesives are she thought it was the coolest thing she had ever seen. Good to know I still have the hookup
You might personally like bald guys, but at least subconsciously most people (male and female) are wired to think that someone with a full head of hair is most attractive. That's just the way it is.
The point I'm trying to make here is that you're wasting money on something you think will make your life better in some way. It's not going to make your life better. You should have taken the money you'll spend on these hairpieces, the glue and tape and styling them and gone on a cruise or fishing/camping trip to Alaska or something.
Um...two of the richest men are Donald Trump and Bill Gates and both of them are butt freaking ugly.STR8UP said:
How much hair a person has doesn't have anything to do with how attractive they are. Their facial features is what determines how attractive they are or aren't. As long as a balding guy doesn't try to do the "swoop" to cover where he's balding his lack of hair doesn't make him less attractive.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Hey, I say people should pluck it, tuck it, suck it, (or in his case) glue it, all they want! Everyone should have the freedom to reach for a higher quality of life and define that quality any way they choose.
bullsh*t! Who are you to judge the body investments of others! I pay a pretty high membership to a gym to keep my as$ high and tight - I (nor my hubby) feels this is a waste. I pay $$ to get waxes - again, money well spent to keep the playground clear! I burn money - well, I buy candles to burn while making love to my man in the bed or bath - waste??? I think not.
What another does to enhance or embellish their life goes so much further then just the item or task itself.
Your judgment of others and representation of womankind is getting pretty old and rather warped.
Alright people....for the last freakin time.....IT WON'T FALL OFF YOUR HEAD AND YOU CAN'T PULL IT OFF EITHER! It takes about 10 minutes to get it off, and that's with drowning the adhesive in 99% alcohol, which is STRONG sh!t.spider_007 said:hey dude, what are you gona do if you start getting hot and rough with a gurl and she pulls your hair.

And to debunk some other myths-
No, it doesn't look like a pile of fur placed on top of your head. It is handmade with real human hairs that are individually tied into a fine lace that COMPLETELY disappears against your skin once it is attached. When it is properly attached, you can't see it even with your eyes a few inches away from the lace, and you can't feel it either.
You choose your density to match your current hair thickness and age level. I ordered 65%, which basically means that the piece is made to mimic the thickness of a 34 year old's typical level of thickness.
The color is custom matched to your own. I chose the appropriate color from a color ring and it matches well.

I understand why you do it.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Because it's okay for HER or any other woman to spend thousands of dollars on breast implants, makeup, facelifts, and whatnot, but god forbid a man try to improve his appearance with....OMG....a TOUPEE!Bad_Lil'Pixie said:
Seriously, Wyld is just a victim of the limitations of her own mind. I'm glad that there are some other women like you out there who see it for what it is and not what's swilring around in the back of their head from watching too many Seinfeld episodes.
EXACTLY!
I don't PREFER breast implants, I would much rather have a chick that's all natural, but I'm not that small minded that I would judge someone based upon their decision to have it done. To each their own.
I would be willing to bet a lot of money that if transplants were not an option (they aren't for me) you would be DESPERATELY seeking a solution and would be a little more open to gluing or taping something to your head. Hairloss would DEVASTATE you. I don't buy it for one minute.Wyldfire said:
It will improve my life. I will feel better about my new look. That's all that matters.
And I already take several vacations every year. Buying a couple of hundred bucks worth of hair isn't going to interfere with my lifestyle, I can assure you of that.
Nowhere did I judge him...I'm telling him it's unnecessary and he is wasting money on something he does NOT need to do. I'm saying there are many more things he COULD spend that money on that WOULD enrich his life more and make for some real happy times.Bad_Lil'Pixie said:
This discussion isn't about how much or your husband's hard earned money you spend. This thread is about someone spending an awful lot of money on something that they (at least subconsciously) think is going to make them more successful in life. A hairpiece is not going to make any significan't difference in his life. He doesn't need the hairpiece...THAT is the point I'm making.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
