    You are so handsome with or without hair.

    This is the moment Walt became Heisenberg…

    I can’t wait to send this to my husband! Thank you for your wisdom, as usual 💕

  • @syrahsmythe says:

    Your shaved head looks amazing, it really suits you. Hair is just dead protein and I don’t get why people get so attached tot it. I rocked a shaved head for 4 years during Covid and got so many compliments – mostly from men. Confident women don’t need to hide behind long hair. Freedom. No maintenance. The money saved from not going to the salon went towards weekly massages.

  • @Mialuvsveggies says:

    Derek, you are just as handsome as ever. I 100% appreciate the embracing the au natural look. I’m glad you are happy with your decision.

  • @Cas_anova says:

    Quick tip for my fellow Calimeros: The reason hair makes some look better is because it visually alters the shape of the head. Shaping your beard right can achieve the same result. You’ll probably want your face to look longer so just trim the sides and grow the bottom.

  • @loganknits says:

    You’re rockin’ it! I’ve been buzzing my hair off for about six years now (gradual thinning/balding since my early 20s), and without a doubt it was the best decision. Going into it I was worried about how I’d look or what people would say, and it all ended up being a non-issue. The daily maintenance was really just 2-3 minutes tacked onto my morning routine, and adjusting to the new look was pretty fast and rewarding. There’s nothing like the confidence it builds. 🙌🏻

  • @huskyoskar3551 says:

    Your shaved head looks really good, especially with the beard! I’m 40 also and I’m not balding yet, but I have a lot of white hair. A few years ago, I thought about dying my hair but I decided to embrace the more “mature look”. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments since then. I think it’s great to embrace who we are!

  • @healthspanalete says:

    As a fellow WFPB athlete but one who’s now pushing 70, I’d say you’re a very handsome young man, and you’d look terrific with or without hair.

  • @mneaton4931 says:

    Honestly, you have always been handsome and charismatic, and you look even better bald. I never noticed your blue eyes. Thanks for that quote. Very wise.

  • @HexproofAnarchist says:

    You look great, buddy! I still have plenty of hair, no balding yet, but I still shave my head regularly because I think it’s comfortable.

  • @jonmoore4588 says:

    You’re last video inspired me to actually do it after literally years of putting it off. I hated going bald. But the outcome? I feel amazing. Literally 100% more confident. I wore a hat everywhere including the gym. No more. Who would of thought such a simple change would have such a profoundly positive effect. Seriously, thanks so much for the inspiration. It’s been life changing.

    • @Simnettnutrition says:

      That’s amazing! Wow, Im’ so happy you are feeling confident and made the decision to do it. Welcome to the club! Happy to be part of your journey 🙂

  • @mayammink says:

    Crystal’s response was so sweet aww ❤❤

  • @9999adriane says:

    Your eyes really stand out now 🩵looks great!

    • @phuahnini6871 says:

      I thought the same….he has a very nice round head shape….so it looks great!!!….definitely 100x better than the thinning hair….

  • @vickygdillon says:

    You’re handsome. You don’t need hair. You look great!

  • @myhorse52 says:

    I think you look great. My first crush as a kid was Yul Brynner in, The King and I. To be honest, I tend to focus on yours and Crystal’s eyes in the videos. You both look so vibrant and your eyes look so joyful.

  • @shala00 says:

    Can we give a ❤️ to Crystal for being so gorgeously supportive?!

  • @donnaschaub9123 says:

    Hi Derek, I’m old enough to be your mom. But I just wanted to say, your bald head looks great & with your beard and gorgeous blue eyes, you’re a very handsome man. I love how supportive Crystal is. You two are a wonderful couple! 😊
    Really enjoy your videos.

  • @Sunnydaypicnic says:

    I am a lady and I shaved my head this past winter to support my mom going through chemo. I had the same experience of increased self confidence. Letting go of something that I thought defined me and releasing that idea was so liberating. Finding out that I loved my self just as much and was even happy with how I looked without hair was a powerful experience. Although I am growing it back I think it’s a good thing for all people to experience.
    You’re gorgeous both ways!
