As men, we tend to care about our appearance. We want to look good for our significant other and ourselves.

However, there are some things that we can't change about ourselves, no matter how hard we try. One of these things? Balding.

There's nothing wrong with being bald, but you might have questions about whether or not a man losing his hair will be perceived as attractive by others.

This article answers the question many balding people may ask: can I still be attractive? The simple answer is yes, of course, you can (and will!). For the long explanation, please read on.

Some bald guys feel less attractive when they've lost their hair

This can be because they think they are less masculine or don't want to look older.

If you're one of these men, it's important to remember that your looks have nothing to do with your attractiveness as a person and everything to do with who you are inside.

You may not have the same hairstyle as others, but that doesn't mean you aren't just as attractive—your style is different!

A confident attitude makes people attractive; having confidence in yourself will help you embrace who you are and make others want to be around you even more than before.

Hair does make an impact on attraction, but it's not everything

It's a common belief that attractiveness is about what you look like and how confident you are, but there's also something else at play: the chemistry between two people.

Of course, many factors can influence that chemistry, including your sense of humor or mannerisms, but here we'll focus on how hair affects attraction—and how much it means in the grand scheme of things.

A big part of being attractive is confidence, and a bald guy can be seen as confident because he's comfortable with his appearance

Confident people don't need to focus on their appearance so much. Instead, they're more likely to focus on other people and the things that make them happy.

Being comfortable with your appearance makes you more attractive because it shows that you don't care about what others think about your appearance.

People who are judgemental or critical of others' appearances often have low self-esteem and an unhealthy obsession with appearances.

Hairloss can be a turnoff for some women, but others aren't all that picky about the style

The notion that women are more attracted to men with hair is not universally true. For example, some women have said they prefer bald guys over those with a full head of hair.

These women tend to like the look of a shaved head and find it more attractive than someone who has long or short locks.

Many men who shave their heads do so because they feel confident and attractive when they do so — and this confidence is the number one attribute that comes across as attractive to other people.

Some people will perceive you as more attractive, and others won't, but you must be comfortable with your appearance

There's no need to be concerned if you are bald and think your appearance makes you unattractive.

Some people will perceive you as more attractive, and others won't, but you must be comfortable with your appearance.

In general, it's not about the look so much as how we carry ourselves and what we have to offer in terms of personality or other qualities.

Many women will be attracted to a guy who has confidence in himself regardless of his physical appearance or body type: if a woman is shallow enough to judge based on looks alone, then sure as hell, she wasn't worth dating anyway.

If you feel good about yourself and are comfortable in your skin, people will want to spend time with you because they'll feel like they're around someone who knows who they are and where they fit into this world.

So at the end of the day, what's most important is that you're comfortable with yourself and your appearance.
