Default Views of guys losing their hair?

First off I am a guy and I am losing my hair. It always bothered me even before it started happening because I knew it was in my genes. I am now 31 and have just begun getting into the dating scene again and I am really embarrassed about it. I know women would all prefer a guy with hair but is it really a deal breaker for alot of women. Basically I can pretty much attract any women I want (within reason) with a hat on but I always feel like i am tricking them so I jokingly tell them "I hope you like bald guys" and take off my hat and see how they react. One girl told me to put my hat back on but still wants to go out with me!!! Was it just a bigger deal to me than her? She is 25 I am 31.
BTW I am 6'6" 195lbs and have muscle and a six pack. I also can dress nicely and am told I have a very handsome face.
How do women really feel? Its driving me insane, thats for sure. Thanks.

lot of guys when going bold early in life shave the whole lot off. It sounds like this is what you may have done. I think this can really work on the right person and be kind of cool, Van Diesel style. It sounds like you could probably pull this off as it sounds like you are quite a fit looking guy.

throw away the hat and make the boldness a statement. women love confidence in men. Emphasis what you have not what you don't. this is not going to be all women's thing but it shouldn't be a deal breaker for many.

Good Luck and have fun.

Agree with TT...

Throw away the hat, that's non confidence.

I don't mind at all a man with a six pack, tall and shaved hair.

Walk with confidence.

If you are receeding, not shaved, do it... all or nothing, kind of says, bold, and sexy... and deliberate.

Women don't know if it is or isn't.

Go for it.

I don't usually wear a hat but when I do I notice the women are much more fond of me so I have much more fun. I know I need to really just quit caring what others think of it but it really is a mans #1 fear.
I have been contemplating buzzing it really short but don't know if my head shape suits it. Again it will have to be another who care's attitude. Some will like it some won't. Its just hard going from the attractive man I was with hair to the one that noticeably gets less attention without it.
On top of that my facial hair doesn't grow in the best either. Can't win...

Bald can be very sexy. I don't see the reason for all of the fuss. In fact, guys who keep fussing with their hair are a big turn off. It's a man's confidence in himself that is alluring, not the hair.

I have a vacation coming up and am really ready to get rid of it. It will then give me a week to get used to it and get some sun on it.
As for confidence, I do have it. I am really quite the catch aside from my few problems presented here on the board.
It just hurts some of the things women say to me. Like, "you would look so ugly without hair" and this last Thursday, "put your hat back on your so much cuter". Even though I still managed to get a date with the girl and it went pretty well last night. Now I am waiting the for the 2 day rule to kick in before I call...

Sounds like those women are pretty shallow to me.

Truly? How fickle is she, likes the six pack, body, height, knows not of the soul? Views looks, cuter? So, she is sizing up you body not your make-up?

What is with that?

Let's just check this man out in body, forget the soul?

Not worth your time don't you think?

If and, it's happened so many times, a guy looks at my photo and say wow?

What?

What is WOW is the inner me, want to find out?

Diss her real quick don't pass go, and never settle for less..

If they don't know? If they are looking superficial then frankly time to think, deep you are way worth more as a person.
