I'm writing based on a true life experience of me. I'm thirty-five this year and a few years ago, I noticed that I was balding. The hair professionals call this the "U" shape male hair loss pattern. I long for my head full of hair, recall my memories of having long hair when I was younger, I could comb, style it anyway I liked it.

Once, I saw a commercial depicting a middle aged man, enjoying his car ride with the car hood lowered down, the breeze was blowing through his hair and he was showing the feeling of free spirit and loving every seconds of it, but suddenly the breeze was too strong for his hair and in seconds, his hair took off and landed on another person's car windscreen. Oh, how I can appreciate that sight, with wind blowing through my hair, the feeling of freedom inside me going to burst out any moment. But I reflect back on my hair loss whenever I see myself in the mirror everyday, that patch of hair loss in my head. This hair loss was inherited from my dad, whom began his hair loss days when he was in his mid thirties too. I was always laughed at by my siblings, but I know that I can't do anything but try ways and means to slow down its process.

Whenever, I see couples on dates or walking down the path holding hand in hand. I admire the guy whom has a bunch of healthy looking hair, I began wondering to myself have I lost that sex appeal to women. I'm just a average guy, not particularly handsome, now losing my hair, makes it worse that women may not want me at all for their soul mates. I began to realize that I'm losing my self confidence, especially when it comes to posing for camera shots which I will normally try to avoid it at all cost. This question of sex appeal of the bald man really came onto me as something that I could contribute because it is really something close to my heart.

Can a bald man be as sexy compared with a man with a full crop of healthy hair? I think so, maybe I'm trying to evade the question or running away from the problem, but I think that it's the inner self that should appeal to the opposite sex and not just the outward appearance which will fade away in time. Loving one person is not about outward appearance, it involves more than that, emotions, feelings, touch, all this are important in creating that person appealing to sex and I think there is still the chances of sex appealing to bald man as well.
