Recently, I found myself in a hairy situation.
I accidentally stumbled into a situationship with a bald man – and he broke my heart. The worst part? He wasn’t even my type.
I usually have a preference for muscular, athletic guys with a full head of hair. I never imagined I would develop feelings for someone who is bald. It was initially just meant to be a casual relationship.
But in a plot twist I didn’t see coming, I got completely swept up. This guy managed to charm my pants off – literally.
He was cheeky, charismatic and unashamedly alpha, with piercing blue eyes and a deep, mesmerizing voice.
Oh, how I lapped it up.
So, I was unexpectedly gutted when I received this brutal text: ‘It’s not you, it’s me.’

As I mourned the loss of the best sex of my life, I wondered how I got here. I was heartbroken over a man who should never have stood a chance.
That’s when it hit me. It wasn’t his looks that I fell for – it was his charm.
Bald men have mastered the art of charming women despite their lack of hair. They have a way of breaking through your barriers and expectations, effortlessly getting close to you emotionally and physically.
I’ve got to admit, I was kind of impressed.
Unlike conventionally attractive guys, bald men can’t just rely on genetics to woo a woman. Instead they have refined their witty banter, built emotional intelligence and developed a captivating personality.
Just look at Stanley Tucci. He might not be a typical hunk, but the deep timbre of his voice, that soft-spoken intensity and the way he makes a martini…
He’s living proof that while hairlines might recede, sex appeal doesn’t have to.
Ironically, while millions of men fly across the world to get hair transplants in Turkey, women are secretly swooning over the men who shed their manes and stay put.
A recent survey found that 40 percent of women are attracted to baldness, while a 2017 study from the University of Pennsylvania concluded that bald men are perceived as more dominant, confident and masculine.
It got me thinking: Are bald men having a red-hot renaissance?
I mean, some of the world’s biggest sex symbols are chrome domed.
Vin Diesel. Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. Christopher Meloni. Bruce Willis. Jason Statham. Shemar Moore. Channing Tatum.
Pop a bald man in an action movie and you’ve got yourself a blockbuster.
And their love lives speak for themselves. Statham is engaged to supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. ‘The Rock’ is married to the stunning Lauren Hashian. Willis is with model Emma Heming and was once married to Demi Moore.

Meloni (pictured) is also a hairless Hollywood hunk.
Tucci (pictured) is living proof that, while hairlines might recede, sex appeal doesn’t have to.

Truth is, I’ve had my hopes dashed by plenty of dates with ridiculously good-looking, hirsute guys who turned out to be crashing bores.
The source of that disappointment has a name. It’s the ‘halo effect,’ a psychological bias in which we assume conventionally attractive people are automatically a catch, when in reality they’re not. Trust me, I’ve been blinded by it.
But I can’t blame the bachelors who are naturally blessed.
Why bother learning how to hold a conversation if your good looks can do the talking?
When you spend your whole life impressing women with tousled tresses and bone structure alone, there’s not much incentive to develop a personality.
But you know who isn’t putting you to sleep over a cocktail? A bald man.
Dare I say, it’s impossible to go on a bad date with one.
In a world obsessed with perfectly coiffed hair and bulging muscles, these men have single-handedly shattered the stereotype that bald is blah. Clearly, bald is best.
Because real sex appeal isn’t about what’s on top of your head, it’s about what’s going on inside it.
And that is more deadly than a man with a six-pack and a full head of hair.
