Our obsession with hair

Every time I am about to get a haircut I always think about our obsession with hair.
We put a lot more importance on hair than we should. I can talk a bit about the experiences of man. I have since many people in person and online who are really insecure about their hair loss. Then there are people who happily wear the bald look. People who are comfortable being bold never think a bit about hair. But people who have hair but are losing it completely lose their mind. I understand a bit but to some extent it’s irrational. The hair adds to your external look and probably adds to your confidence. But that’s just on the outside. If you can manage things on the inside hair shouldn’t matter too much.
That’s what I have come to terms with myself. I wouldn’t lie and say I don’t care if I get bald. I did in the past. That’s why I intentionally got a bald haircut a few times. One time, it was because I lost a bet, but whatever the reason was, it made me realize that it was all in my head at the end of the day. Whether I get bald or not, in the long run, no one cares as long as I can come to terms with it.
So if you are someone who’s obsessed with your hair, maybe ask yourself where it comes from. But if you are a barber, then stop asking that question and keep cutting that hair.
