You really shouldn't be so hard on yourself.
I remember boasting to my friend at about 22-23 years old that I bet I'd have a full head of hair for many more years (due to my mom's side of the family having thick heads of hair). That thinking wasn't as foolproof as I thought as karma bit me in the ass and I swear, not a week later, I started noticing my hair falling out.
Around last year (when I was 28), I decided to start buzzing my hair on a bi-weekly basis, as it was pretty noticeable that I was thinning and keeping the hair wasn't doing me any favors.
And honestly, it's not a big deal. Most of my friends applauded me for embracing it as opposed to holding on to a receding hairline. Hasn't impacted me regarding females in any way either.
Are there times I think about getting a transplant? Sure. And who knows, maybe one day I will (I still miss my hockey hair days). But at the end of the day, it's all about confidence bro.
