Men from all over the world 🙏🌍 Video topics are timestamped in the description if you want to only watch the main points I won't be mad 😃. Thank you once again Sanjay 🤝
Fair play mate, this channel is gold how you're briging attention to the issue of MPB and thus reducing the stigma of balding especially at a relatively young age. Thank you mate, it's a terrifying thing when you can't control it.
@@j.d.s8942 I can relate to you soo much mate. I faced the same set of questions in my interview. Hell i even got suicidal thoughts due to the society bullying me everyday. The moment i started working out changed the whole life for me. It gave me confidence and i absolutely despise people who ridicule me for my balding even if they are my own family i will cut off them. Your self worth is destined by how you treat you. Give a big fuck off to all the people who think of you as little due to your appearance.
@@Baldcafe Another Indian guy right here who got inspired by you to go bald, thank you so much brother for inspiring millions like me around the world!❤️❤️❤️
As an Indian teenager dealing with going bald so early, I felt so hopeless and depressed that it contributed to the teens and the early twenties being the darkest years of my life. It feels so good to watch videos like these which tell me I was actually not alone. Thank you so much for doing this!
He presented Indian side in 100% authentic manner. Everything what he said is true. I lived my 4 years of my life in US being an indian and receding hair. My life in US was much simpler than India. It's tough to be bald in india
In Indian culture, hair is shaved off (in temples)is to get rid of the false ego that makes us think that our self and our external body are one and the same. The idea is that what we perceive as "I" or "ME" is just a result of false ego , ie the physical features (like color of skin, size and shape of the body)and the accumulation of our experiences through life, (which includes the culture we grow up in ). Shaving of hair is thus considered the first step towards self realization and critical thinking .(it is a misconception that hair is shaved as an offering to gods !!!).So to all my fellow bald people , be happy and humble that the universe has initiated our journey to self realization !!! PS: just found the channel .great effort and quality content .
Literally it's more like sacrificing a thing which is very important to you(hair) to prove your devotion on path of spirituality. Its not about offering its more of leaving one thing to get something better from lord.
This is the best video of the bald cafe. I am too a bald Indian man and I can totally relate to this. We need this kind of awareness in India and this channel will help to lead this awareness.
I agree. Thank god, the negative attitude towards baldness in my country (Indonesia) has been much lesser since a decade ago. I hope India will experience a similar trend. 😎🤍
I am a 26 year old bald Indian man. I shaved off my hair at 21 and never thought about my hair again. I didn't face any problem in blending with the Indian society except for a few awkward situations in the initial phase. But my dating life did suffer a lot. When I used to have hair I would get a lot of female attention. I'll notice girls checking me out on the streets. But after I embraced being bald nobody checks me out. Girls I come close to usually friendzone me. But somehow I have learnt to accept the reality. Sometimes it's disheartening but I never feel like I wish I could get my hair back. I am quite happy the way I am regardless of girls liking me or not.
Bro I can feel you and I disagree that you accept it because this is not acceptable being bald is the worst even I also have same experience even the girl who proposed me in my early 20 now when I am bald friendzoned me and now she didn't even give me enough attention don't even try to compare with HOLLYWOOD CELEBRITY because mindset of foreign girls are different I am living in india and I know about one thing for sure about Indian girls that they won't prefer a bald guy even over a guy with ugliest face but with great hairstyle it happens to me almost everytime it doesn't matter how much I try to accept my reality but this hurt every fucking day behaviour of everyone even your family changes when you have no hairs on your head
@@indetok5524 just check the insta account of Jason Statham even he try to hide his baldness in some photos he edited his head area in his photos and other thing is he is not living in india I challange you name one bollywood actor who is bald and get LEAD ROLE in movie but you cant because there were no one there is no one and there will be no one I am not talking about villan or side role but the lead role bro being bald in india is a curse to social life mental piece and personality bald guys are treated like a trash in indian society
@M Harish yes indian girls don't like bald foreign celebrities such as rock or Jason so this is my massage to every indian bald guy don't give yourself fake hopes we've become ugly in the eyes of indian society and indian girls or agar frk nhi padta to kyu cap pehante hai sab log jinke baal nhi hote sir pe ya kam baal hote hai yhi reason hai ye gandagi hai apne chehre ki or ye dard sirf ek takla ho chuka aadmi hi smjh skta hai or koi nhi
That took some courage Sanjay. Crazy how it is so much more accepted and normal to be bald in Europe. Welcome to the club of bald brothers. There are more of us than you think. Greetings from the Netherlands
Best of luck for your future endeavours, Sanjay, and thank you Baldcafe for providing this amazing platform to hear the experiences of fellow men who are in the same boat, love you from India.
The worst part is even the parents won't understand how difficult it is for their kid; who is balding. In my case I wanna shave my head but my parents keep saying that I need to keep my hair till I get married. Like bruh I already lost so much hair from the top.
Hello..Sanjay. Great to see you on screen. It feels immense pleasure to see one of my best friends giving interview about the most debated topic among Indians, especially teens. Sanjay you were emotional, elegant, expressive and excellent throughout. Hope to see you soon in Big Screen. Keep Rocking daa... ❤️ Do the Best, Be the Best ❤️ Wish you All the Best 🤟
@@mdsolu1949 I think it's every where in the world because Hair improves your facial structure and makes you attractive so Hair = improved looks = attractive
As a Muslim I were muslim cap it's give my face a handsome and bright look. And even my society respect ❤❤ I think there will be no problem if you are Muslim or sikh❤
I started to loose my hairs when I was in 11th class. Sometimes my friends use to make fun of it in public and it's really discouraging. I watched ur videos and it really provided a confidence. Right now I am 21 and thinking to get bald.
@@leftovernewsasia8251 well hairs are generally for head protection. And nowadays people are shaving hairs from their different body parts.... So Wts the problem about head's hairs to be shaved. It removes a lot of stress of seeing ur falling hairs.
@@Renorajapaksha I appreciate your help and feeling very much thankful but I just don't want to use artificial methods. If I'll do that I will only judge and question myself. Still I appreciate your suggestion friend. Thanx
I am getting bald ,facing hair thining.whenever i feel bad for loosing hair i come to your channel to get rid off that thought and feel confident.thank u❤️❤️❤️🙏
@N0v1ce Benchmarker I kind of developed detachment from life, practically having hair hair would help me in two circumstances 1. To get a girlfriend 2. To ace in job interviews ... Apart from that I don't see any use of hair for me ... So in case to solve issure 1 I am kind of a spiritual person pursuing PhD, I live a monk like life style so, girlfriend is a distraction and don't need one and 2. I am doing my PHD so, I want to go to acadamics, so I don't have to ace in job interviews so point two is resolved
I'm also facing like Thea's problems when I was 17, I'm going to depression so many time, my friend and my relative teasing so many times times but I never open up about my feelings.when I seeing your conversation I'm feeling so comfortable and happy for what have what I can do, you guys are reliefing my pain and depression.thank you so much for helping people like us.
To be honest i am facing similar issue and i am 24 and started losing hair a while ago. I had a situation today morning were i had to speak to my cousin brother and we were on a video call and he started pulling my leg saying you are going bald whats happening to you and asking me to get married fast which all of a sudden was embarrassing for me as he was sitting front of my other family members and making fun and he is way older then me. I just some how handle and calming replied it is what it is. Everyone has their flaws. But after cutting the call for 10 mins my mind was all over the place. Sort of it made me feel horrible. But all of a sudden I remember d your channel and started watching this video were i cld relate my story. It feels great that i am not alone in this thing. Proud of you brother. I had not subscribed your channel for a while thinking i dont want to see this stuff as it could make me feel bad about my situation But today i have subscribed and would like to see more stuff like this which help us mentally to get stronger day by day and face any bad or harsh situation in society. Saideep here.
In India, many trends take time to get here. Many people made fun of men who had long hair. But now it’s become a trend and almost every guy is trying to grow his hair long especially during the pandemic going on. Hopefully being bald also gets common and not made fun of.
Long hair is still considered as abnormal behavior in India or you are called by names like yogi, sadhu, woman, blah blah blah blah 😂😂, But fuk them who cares
THANKS for coming out on this channel bro. And thank you harry for making these videos. I would like to add a few things here most of the girls (18-24) here in india are way more judgemental dont know whats wrong with them for example even if the girl is below average "looks wise" still she would want to date a good looking 6ft tall guy with hair. Its because they get so much attention from the 'chapri boys' which makes them think that they look like a super model lol better stop giving that much attention to every other women and focus on building your career and start working on your peace of mind. You"ll find your right women one day no matter you are bald or whatever. 💪💪
Losing your hairs when you are 17 sucks so so so much.. 😓😓😓 People seem to think we have control over it but they never get the simple fact that it is not something we can control .. we cannot cheat life
Great video! All he mentioned is true, its really bad for those who start receding during their teenage years. Initially I didn't care but at 19yo people straight up keep staring at my hairline. It is a confidence killer when you are having a great conversation with someone and suddenly they start starting. Even my parents aren't supportive of any treatment even though being well educated. Sanjay does look good with the bearded look, gain some muscles and tbh will make you look more defined.
finally an indian dude on ur podcast so that we indian guys can relate to. m Man with hair or bald head u look good dont worry mate. SO MUCH LOVE from INDIA to BALDCAFE for spreading positivity . Kudos to you Harry .;))) i'm 21 starting to notice bald spots and very much receding . your every videos helps me man . love from india .
I am Indian man who started balding in my 20s, so did my younger brother. Both of us shaved our heads recently. It is liberating. I am not sure about others, but I am more comfortable with the way I look than I was before. The ideal of masculinity in Bollywood is linked to Hollywood. Indian men, consciously and subconsciously, try to emulate white European stereotypes. Part of the postcolonial hangup. I am sure that if baldness starts to become more accepted in western media, it will have a knock on effect in India. The other thing that will generally help Indian men is to dress better and work out. That takes away a lot of the (negative) attention. I have Indian friends who got hair transplants, but they don’t work out and dress like middle aged men. For what it’s worth, I generally get more positive female attention than them.
Hey Harry.. Love the way you are helping people tackle with this... balding is a big stigma in India... I am an Indian and I live in Ireland and I am totally happy and comfortable being bald...I took the decision to go bald after watching your videos...I would love to feature in your video and share my experience of how a Indian bald man feels in a foreign country vs how someone feels in India. A person thank you for doing this -Faisal
I'm 19 from banglore,india 🇮🇳 from a lower middle class family and I'm almost 70% bald my hairfall started when I was 16 or 17. Initially I started combing sideways and tried various home remedies and shaved my head at times, When I did people obviously ask us which temple did u visist n that's normal. It was all due to severe dandruff but i cared least about it just by trying home remedies and different shampoos . When I showed it to normal doctor he told it vit B12 deficiency gave injections and pills but it didn't work out too! 😭 Instead it caused me kidney stone... We'll now my bald head is visible when I go out in sunlight, now I feel very insecure ,now I feel like crying sometimes i hit myself and regret. Yesterday my uncle passed away I went out literally after 5 months I wore cap and all of them looked at me in a weird way idk it feels so bad. I'm literally helpless neither my parents care about the hairloss they tell this is normal your hair will come back dont worry. Recently I had a fight with my dad too I cried broke a chair but he told he'll show it to a professional dermatologist later as he can't afford now and also due to covid! FML! I recently came across your RU-vid channel hope it motivates me and get me out of this trauma! My mental health is worsening day by day I almost think abt my hairs like throughout the day!😭😭💔🙏
My best friend solve his balding hair by putting small amount of Tabasco sauce in his scalp 3x a week It's been a year now doing that things, way back year ago he is literally looks going to bald but if you look his photo before and now it literally looking better now his hair significantly thicker and fuller. I conclude that tabasco sauce contains species and capsaicin which is great to numb and destroy DHT receptor and promote hair growth.
I could relate to him 100% as a Indian man. Arranged marriage thing was perfectly put by him. I don't have interest to get married anytime soon but i have told my parents to start looking for bride because I know that's not gonna be easy. Girls here might agree if people go for artificial hair or hair transplant but they will definitely say no for skin visible on head.
Mr. Jagadesh D Sanjay. I know him from my childhood. He is a very talented actor. I am the one who witnessed that. I used to wonder on his level of knowledge he knows almost everything. . A Kind hearted person and a hard worker Surely he will be rated high for his talent Machiiii masss daa. Podu thakida thakida.
I am Balding at 21......will probably start shaving soon. I dont think i have any confidence issue but man thinking about being attractive to women fks me up.
@@Baldcafe Hey i can come in one of your video podcasts. I will complete my 3rd year bald anniversary this October 10th. Could convey a lot with my experience
Love to see u from India(Tamil) brother actually I wanted to do this for a long back bcoz I'm facing the same thing from my age of 20 but u did it I really appreciate it 🎉❤️ Thx and luv u both of you Brother's 😍
its a brutal world out their .I am lucky to have good hairline at age 33.I was always cursing myself for not being good looking but I thank god that I have good hairline for the time being.
Found your channel in December 2020, I started to lose hair at age 15, it has been a tough fight more so in india, I faced all the things he told in the video. Fortunately, I received the support of a doctor and he saved me.
Balding is definitely manly, only thing with me is I dislike not having the choice of a hairstyle. When I was a teenager I used to buzz my hair off and had no problem with it because it was my choice, I felt it looked cool plus was great during the summer. Then when the thinning kicked in I chose to enjoy my hair while it was decent up until now when it's gotten really thin. Also I definitely do feel like women will like the hair better, but being bald isn't all that bad.
So sad to see our culture Is over taken with super fiscal extreme judgemental ways. Not gonna lie being an Indian is difficult especially when it comes down to looks.
Yea bro even if the girl is below average "looks wise" still she would want to date a good looking 6ft tall guy with hair. Its because they get so much attention from the 'chapri boys' which makes them think that they look like a super model lol better stop giving that much attention to every other women and focus on building your career and start working on your peace of mind. You"ll find your right women one day no matter you are bald or not.
@@abhinaykumar39 100% true. Who has time to worry a out it all the time. I personally have had a hair transplant for my hair line and getting a second setting done for my midscalp and been happy with it But I dont do it for a girl. I just do it for me that's it. Otherwise i could do a shaved look or even a hair system but even for guys who have full heads of hair i think woman still set the expectation bar far too high. 31 and still single parents dont want to find me anyone I kind of quit caring too. I'm busy with my career as a network support specialist and lead engineer that I dont have time to worry about what people think of me.
Well man you don't need a girl to live your life you yourself is more than enough .. my dad used to say this alot when I was a teen that you came alone you'll go alone .. instead of crying that no girl is approaching you. You should be thankful that you get to live another day cause some do not ... Baldness is just another phase of your life accept it .. develop "Dont give a fuck " attitude it'll help you alot in long run and about girls see if a girl judge you on the basis of your looks then shes definitely not "The one " .. a true life partner never judge another on the basis of how they look , they get attracted on how you treat her or how you deal with hard situations calmly and i know you'll definitely find that partner you just have to wait ... Enjoy this beautiful life surround yourself with positive people instead of people judging you , i myself is suffering from hair thinning so before nature takes it call i just shaved my hair off .. and the all that amount of stress discomfort it's all gone now i don't care how people see me i am confident on how I speak how I look and how i represent myself .. so I 'll just say that be confident everyone loves a confident and calm guy ..
Unfortunately in Ind d situation is pathetic for Bald Men. India is blessed with sun light & baldness is stereotyped with old age. Bald men r looked down upon in marriage market. Women simply need reason for rejection in Ind & being bald is a big void.
I have been following your channel on Instagram and FB, I like all your videos, and I'm from Indian and that too same for the south, this guy has said what Indian guys problems are. it about how confident we are with or without hair, it not what we have on the head it all about what's inside the head, people who feel bad about the bald show see your channel and feel that they are not alone so many people are dealing this, you channel help to feel it normal to have bald, I think India files should start showing bald is also style to being, finally, all we have one life to live, so get out from this and do we feel like to do, men are natural
I am from nepal 🇳🇵 Yes people just question about what happened to your family did anyone in your family member died or stuff like that .Thats just embarrassing thing if you are being questioned in front of many friend and many girls reject balding men just because of looks and There are many rites and rituals followed in Hindu religion like sanjay said.Many media always expose bad things about balding issue.People in Nepal experiencing less about Balding problem compared to many parts of the world .Just want to say Harry Big Thanks to you for interviews 😅❤️❤️
Been losing hair since the age of 17. But the first thing is... We still can't say hair thinning at early age normal in India. Balding in 20s is still rare in this part of the world. Bald looks will become normal once it spreads to a great number. The western sense of clothing has become normal now, because, well, it's everywhere. Another thing is that, in the west people don't care about anyone that way, which makes these things simpler. In Indian Culture, you know even the relatives of your neighbour and have close contacts with them. This may seem awkward to us, but they truly think that their suggestions will help us. As I've said, it's still rare. And that's why people don't know the modest way to talk about this. I don't think I can blame them for doing these things. Because when we need them, even remote contacts through these people can be real helpful at many occassions. Indians know that. They just don't want to accept that. People will become humble towards it eventually when young age balding spreads. That's how it works with every society.
12:33 you should do a podcast with a woman (maybe your wife) that likes bald guys. I was never a particularly good looking guy with hair and clean shaven in my 20s, but being bald and bearded is definitely the best look for me. get more interest from women and respect from men. "mate" and "oi you" became "sir" and "this gentleman"... a lot of women DO LIKE the bald look as a preference.
Definitely something to explore in the future but in a constructive way. Maybe with some kind of expert on the topic of attraction or something rather than asking random women which is what most do. I ponder over beards and I honestly think a beard is something else that requires confidence to wear because so many numbnuts will say “ewww shave your gross beard!” 🤦♂️ 😂
people just ignore what doesn't fits in their comfort zone, the only solution to this is to work on ourselves and get in 1%. The road is difficult but god has burnt the bridges for us .

India and pakistan are about the same been experiencing hair loss at 23 now i have lost prospective and what i want from my life, the worst part is sometimes i consider suicide, i earn quite well for my age my family wants me to get married and get on with life but deep inside i am mentally exhasted.
Posted this under a different comment, try going for a buzz cut. If you keep your hair really short the top of the head blends really well with the back and side making the baldness way less apparent. Looks really good on people too. It helped me lots back in the day.
You can put Tabasco Sauce in your scalp, my best friend is balding at age of 24 but he restore his hair by putting small amount of tabasco sauce in his scalp, now his hair is healthier and fuller, the result is an evidence that tabasco sauce working as topical remedies.
Hey Baldcafe! Want to say that I'm from Pakistan and facing this issue of baldness for past 3 years. I've been under confident for most of that time coz of this baldness issue and using caps and covers in my university. As there exists a paranoia in our society specially in Indo-Pak region where people consider bald men as less attractive and less beautiful. They are of the view like no girl will marry you if you get bald, you will look over aged etc U know as this guy explained too and it's really embarrasing for people like me. Recently after coming across your channel and listening to all these happy bald guys, it has boosted my confidence regarding baldness and now I am thinking to shave off my head too without fukin caring of society
Right now i am 23 and i have a head with hair. but i am having hairfall problem and i may go bald in next 4-5 years. however, i am not afraid of going bald. last year, i had shaved my head in order to see that how will i look with a bald head. it was a nice experience. 😀
My dad is nearly 70 and all the hair on his crown is gone, he STILL refuses to shave it all off. As a 27 year old Indian myself, I have a little thinning on my crown but I am not afraid to bust out the clippers if it gets any worse. My mother however doesn't seem to accept that as a very real possibility.
