Bald Head Truths: Hair, Identity, and Letting Go
Episode 16
Wednesday, 29 October, 2025
What happens when your hairline calls it quits before you do? In this episode, I peel back the layers, literally and figuratively, on Black men’s relationship with our hair, identity, and confidence. I started losing my hair at 20 years old while I was at Morehouse, back when there was a strict no-hats policy. No cover-ups, no excuses. Just me, my scalp, and a new reality I wasn’t ready for. I talk about what it’s like to go bald early, how it shapes your confidence, and why I think every Black man needs to have this conversation. Expect honesty, a little humor and a few bald head truths along the way. This one’s for every brother learning to let go and laugh while doing it.
