Yes, a bald head generally looks better on black men (to me). White men just look pasty with no hair…I say little is better than none. Black men have that natural skin color that softens the look, I guess. When I see a bald white man, I think “He must have been going bald and wanted to beat it to the punch.” When I see a bald black man, I usually think, “That’s kind of sexy!” haha…

I believe that whether they are good looking or not bald depends on the guy, no matter if they’re African American or Caucasian. Some men look better bald, some don’t. It’s all personal preference. I guess if I had to choose, on average I tend to think African American men are sexier bald.

My personal preference is for men to have at least some hair though because I like to run my hands through it.

It depends on the Caucasian man. I am so pale the when I shaved my head (Don’t ask!) I almost had this blue tint. It just wasn’t sexy. I’d have to say that the darker your skin is, the better bald looks.

Depends on the face, black or white.

@onesecondregrets does it depend more on the face or the shape of the head?

@AstroChuck: Spicy and South American?

I think it depends on the guy’s face. Men with big eyes look best bald. And you have to get past that first day or too of the pasty look.

Once I lose more hair I’m gonna go for the bald look.

No. It depends 100% on the facial structure of the person.

I think the ears play a big part in it too. The smaller the better

I forget who said this: “Black guys with shaved heads look cool. White guys with shaved heads just look like thumbs”

Thumbs with ears! LOL!

White men with shaved heads are hitmen. Well-known fact. Unless they are plumbers.

Hairless genitles kind of freak me out on a grown man, regardless of color or race.

@Jayne: Can’t he be both?

DandyDear711's avatar

@jayne – unfortunately we always know that plumbers are not hairless all over…

@DandyDear711 lol That one was dandy! ;)

my first impulse was to say yes, generally bald black guys appeal to me more than white bald guys. but it definitely depends on the individual the majority of the time.

Both the face and the shape, I think the shape less though.
