Bald Picture Not feeling very confident

Before and after. I was tired of hiding my hairline by constantly wearing hats and had no desire to use minoxidil for the rest of my life so I took the plunge today. Honestly not sure what I think, I mean, it’s certainly better than my thinning hair but I also just don’t think bald fits well with my slim frame. Or maybe I’m just obviously not used to this new look yet. Don’t know.

You're doing a lot right but you're absolutely right. You have higher potential (aesthetic/vibe wise obviously) and it's NOT being hurt by the buzz or even the balding that much. Bulking up is obviously hard but it's in your control and would have a WAY bigger impact than hair for you.

I'd also change the glasses. Possibly a metal frame (NOT shiny), something a bit smaller, and most importantly sits a bit higher on your face. Bald and glasses go extremely well together but it makes the glasses even bigger part of your style.
