7 Advantages of A Bald Head

Do you know about St. Baldrick”s Day? Thousands of women and men from the US come together and shave and make their heads bald for a bald head on St. Baldrick’s Day to generate funds for cancer research. Eventually, they shave their heads in solidarity with the young cancer patients who suffered hair loss due to cancer treatment.

Going bald is not as bad and irritating as most people think. Going bald either because of hair loss or for hobby or fancy is trending because becoming bald is in itself a style.

People who take baldness as a disgrace and feel ashamed of baldness will be astonished to know that baldness has numerous advantages.

What are the advantages of a bald head?

We have explained the seven wonderful advantages of a bald head below…

1. Low Risk of Cancer

Many studies have been conducted and still going on to find whether baldness is connected to cancer. One such study’s co-author Jonathan L. Wright confirms that male pattern baldness within the age of 30 has a 29% reduced risk of prostate cancer. He further adds that the longer you remain bald, the more you are protected from cancer.

As per research, 25% of men get hair loss due to male pattern baldness at the age below 30, and by the age 50, as much as 50% of men get bald. Similarly, around 80% of people become bald at the age of 70. 

In all these male pattern baldness cases, their DHT or dihydrotestosterone (which gets converted to DHT from testosterone) affects the hair follicles and result in baldness. It’s possible to block DHT hormones using some hair care products. There are many popular DHT blocker shampoo available that can reduce the possibility of hair loss.

2. Lower Stress

Mental stress is one of the major reasons for hair loss and becoming bald. But at the same time, if you lead a life with baldness by owning the baldness, then you will be free of a lot of your stress.

First of all, you are under great stress when you discover that you are getting baldness. The sooner you own your baldness, the easier you come out of your stress.

Secondly, you are often stressed when you are with your hair. You need to take care of your hair and maintain it by spending a lot of your time, energy, and money. This certainly adds to your mental stress. It all disappears when you decide to go bald.

3. Effective Metabolism

Bald people have a high level of testosterone than people with hair on their heads. Eventually, a high level of testosterone in the male body has a positive metabolic influence on their health. Testosterone boosts the metabolism and gives them a good shape and masculine body. 

Besides this, enhanced metabolism also maintains the overall weight of the body, including providing good muscle. Several studies have established that a high testosterone level does not allow fat deposits in the face and thus keeps the face sculpted and stronger.

4. You Won’t Overheat in Summer

Summer becomes sweatier and greasier when you have hair on your head. But bald people do not experience this embarrassment. Besides this, dense hair on the head also increase the heat of summer and directly affect the head. On the other hand, bald people with a hat can easily and effectively avoid the heat and keep their heads protected from the summer heat.

5. It Saves Time and Money

As per Statistica.com, each American spent an average of $ 78.7 in 2019 for hair. The global hair product market in 2018 was $ 87. 9 billion, which would increase to $105.14 within 2025. The study further says that there are hundreds and thousands of hair products, but the most used products are hair shampoos, serums, conditioners, sprays, colorants, etc.

Secondly, hair care takes a lot of time and energy, including money. Almost all hair products instruct to wait at least half an hour to one hour after application. So, baldness not only saves a lot of money but saves your time.

6. Baldness Can Give Better Business Deals

Bald people look more mature, trustworthy, and efficient. Similarly, baldness provides more facial hair and gives a masculine beard. Besides, it has been seen that bald head men are better leaders than people with hair. Eventually, bald people are more successful in business than others.
