It Destroyed My Life

to start of with im 23 and male. and was reasonably happy untill i turned 19. when in one day my whole life turned upside down. some people may think im vain.

but discovering that i was losing my hair at such a young age just gave me a killer blow whicch im still suffering from. at that age your suppose to be enjoying yourself. without any worries. i had plans to go off to university. but when i discovered that i was losing my hair. i just became numb with sadness.

i didnt leave the house for a long time. it came as a very big shock. because eveyone in my family have full heads of hair. im the only one out of about 100 males that is losing their hair.

i just felt that i had let everyone down by losing my hair. even though its purley a genetic thing and i had no control over.

i just forgot about uni. i thought what was the point in going to uni. when i couldnt even leave the house due to the hairloss. at that age looks mean alot to a person. i thought i dont want people feeling sorry for me. when they look at my hair. and i would be seen as ugly.

so i just didnt go. my life just stopped at 19. i didnt do anything. my hair was constantly on my mind. who would want a guy thats suffering from very bad hairloss? how would i even get married.

now 4 years later. my outlook has changed and i probably made a big mistake ie putting my life on hold like that. my love life suffered alot. i after 19 i didnt even have the confidence to approach a girl.

to put it in a nutshell. hairloss runined my life and the best years of my life. and now i just feel regretful everyday that i havent made anything with my life. i was even thinking of wearing a turban. as alot of males in my family do. but when i discovered the hairloss. theres no point wearing a turban as ive lost most of my hair.

i just had to let this out.

uhh if you are that ashamed of the hair loss, then you should be even more motivated to wear a turban because then no one can see you barely have any hair

Still you called yourself Singh?

Just remember our Shaheeds. They give there life for sikhi and you give sikhi for some girl:(

Have you no self consciousness, Remember Shaheebjadas, they give there kife at such young age for sikhi, and todays sikhs who are quite old are leaving sikhi for Girls :D

Are such sikhs of Guru Gobind Singh today. I hope all sikhs are not like that.

Just remember Sikh life is very short, everything has to vanish, The only thing is one should not realize the importence of Sikhi, once it is too late.

Just be positive, i think that the girl who is more attracted toward your physical appearence then your character can be a good soul mate. These are my views. Just feel what type of wife you want, who is with you in all conditions, all ups and downs and i hope a true singni can be one that can be true soulmate then these so called Punjabi Girls.

How can aperson be so stupid to give his religion,History culture , even his parents wishes for girls :)

If a person cannot be true to his Guru then he cannot be true to anyone.

Regards.

I think I’d know something repulsive and embarrassing when I see it.

I have not even seen you and what I find most, lets say intriguing to put it politely, is not your loss of hair, but the fact that you’re 23, think you identify with sikhi and lack the most basic education of who you are. That, or you’ve come here to entertain yourself.

Self confidence is relative. One may simply believe they are strong, even if they are merely strong among mice. The turban may not be for you, but do learn to apply a filter of basic respect when you're just letting things out.

I lost most of my hair in high school but I started to take keshi ishnaan everyday and shampoo my hair every 4th day. after a month i could see the hair growth. my hair are not too long but they are thick. I also use almond oil mixed with other oils. this gives me energy and reduces hair loss. I believe Sikhs should be very confident and should be proud of being Sikhs. I don't know why people feel like they have to approach a girl and need to look "decent" in western sense. I have seen people becoming monay and trust me they didn't get any girls going after them. If Bhai Taru Singh Ji wasn't embarrassed then why are you? He was 25 and engaged when he became martyred. Do a comparison.

if this is indead a genuine post................then veer do not worry if u lost kesh...........u didint go the the barbars and shave it all off did u?

lemme share something with u.................im a bibi and im 23 yrs old when i was 17 i lost all my kesh due to some treatment i was having..............and thus causing the downward spiral of my life.........when i did grow back i cherish each and every strand that waheguru has blessed me with.............

I guess sometimes u dont realise the value of something untill u lose it.............but instead of thinking "hai hai why me, why me, why me" think

"Tehra Kia Meetha Laageh" everything u do seems sweet to me............

Waheguru does everything for a reason and if we dont see that straight away then it doesnt mean we are right..........the time that has past leave it there..........look to the furture and place everything in waheguru's hands......................His compassion and mercy knows no bounds and when u give urself to Him..............nothing can touch except Waheguru's love.....

why do people think that if you keep hair then no one will want you esp. if you're a guy??? both sexes overestimate what the opposite gender really wants i think. be yourself and be comfortable with who you are.

(ooh and to the original poster)

Did you have a dream where Dhan Dhan Sahib Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaaj told you that you're a tankhayia if you lose hair? Coz as far as I know, Guru Sahib Ji Sache Paatshah don't beat u up for hair loss.. lol.. You don't cut it, thats the point.

JUST LIKE you accept Gurbar Akaal Sat Sri Akaal Purakh Sahib Ji's Divine Unchallengable Will to keep kesh - why don't you accept the same for hair loss?!

    • lol dal panth Panj told me explicitly not to associate with Vadhbhag Singh Sodhi followers!
    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.  
    • Author Posted April 24   On 4/21/2025 at 2:43 PM, ipledgeblue said: sirr should not be nanga because keski is usually worn.   Sikhs can sleep nanga-sirr if they choose to . Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
