My partner lost all her hair during chemotherapy for breast cancer. I'm the one she asked to bring over my clippers and cut off her hair so it wouldn't coat her sheets and pillow overnight. She still has that hank of hair, tied in a pink ribbon.
Did it change how I felt about her? Yes, it did. It made me more caring, more protective. She wore a wig for a while, and a few times we both chased after it when the high winds blew it off her head. She also lost eyelashes, eyebrows, and other patches common to the feminine form. It all grew back, except for the arm pit hair, which her nurses and doctors' office assistants responded to with, "Awww!". Yah-sure they were mourning her 'loss'. Didn't have to shave the pits anymore, so she's happy.
Did her hair re-growing change how I felt about her? Yes. When that happened, I didn't have to chase her wig anymore, didn't have to wait while she penciled in eyebrows, didn't have to be quite as protective.
The real bottom line, as I experienced it, is that hair presence or absence has very little to do with who the person is and what the person's value is. Yes, there are some shifts and some adapting that is done. That shifting and adapting is normal in all things in the evolution of a relationship, not only hair.

There's nothing wrong with your question dear.
I tried to help him but he wouldn't listen, instead he chose to make personal attacks on me and my profession so I blocked him. I can't reply to his comment cuz I blocked him.
Anyways, to answer your question: yes, I would still love the person even if they went bald for any reason. My mom lost her hair when she had chemotherapy and I was there to assure her that I'll help her get her hair back after she beats cancer.
She passed away less than a year ago. I know for a fact that she's in a better place now. re-state://background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft, p
I totally would! If he/she had a bald head, I'd want to know what illness of course, but I would never leave them because an illness caused them to lose their hair, I'd like them just the same! Looks are not as important as people say, it's the person and their personality that counts. Sure, looks and body are another thing to be attracted to but don't just be with someone because they have a full head of hair, and uh.. Abs or something. If the person I was with was truly someone I was attracted to personality-wise, I wouldn't leave them.
My husband went bald in his early 20's and just started shaving it all.. And yes, still loved him... It's just hair people and can always get a wig or toupee...

Honestly, having seen images of my crush with extremely short cropped hair (not bald but not far from it), I can pretty accurately say she's hot af even bald.
So, yes.
In fact actually, 3 of my favourite pornstars are bald, whatever that adds to this.When I am in love with somebody I am committed and when I'm committed there's nothing in this world is going to stop me from loving that person because together I will make sure that we get through this moment in time just a moment in time that's it another moment will come after that moment
Absolutely! That isn't something they can help. I would never, ever leave someone because of an illness.
of course. im a caregiver and work with cancer patients etc i see it all the time, people say lots of things till they are in that position
well, nice question, but I have to say after i went bald the number of women who hit on me declined some, in fact it went from hitting on me to being anxious I would hit on them. I don't love this feeling
What if it wasn't due to an illness and they just lost their hair, does that nake a difference? The reason i ask is because your question stipulates illness, as if that would be the only reason for baldness to stay with them.
For any reason really. If you partner only loves you for your hair and their partnership is conditional upon your hair, might as well get rid of them now. That's pretty shallow.

there would be no "still"
I love her and that's it... Women they have estrogen if they go bald is entirely their fault and because of that for diet or chemicals they use it’s not like men.
When men go bald is because they overproduce testosterones or because of other complication. So the only way to stop it is for them to turn into a girl.
Short answer if your girl goes bald I will not date her or I will leave her.If I was married to him, that is life. Through good and bad health, I'd still love him no matter what.
The fact that this question even gets asked……… 🤦🏽♂️
Yes. Don’t let people lie though, most on Gag wouldn't.
Yes, I'd be more concerned about their health than how they look.
Of course I would stay and still love them.
If she gets a tattoo or a piercing in her face, boobs, privates... I'm gone.Of course having an illness wouldn't be a reason to not love a person, I would suppory girl if she has an illness just like I would want her to support me if I had an illness.
Unquestionably, yes. It is far more likely her going bald would affect her emotionally greatly more than her going bald affecting me on some negative level.
I'm inexperienced, but I believe I will. Love is not about look but personality. If I loved her, then I would do my best to make her feel more comfortable. Such person really needs it.
Absolutely. I still hold the same vows with boyfriends; “In sickness and in health.”
Of course! I'd love him.
I'd get to see the reflection of my lips when I kiss him on the head lol
Honestly, I'll never stop loving him cos I'm sure he'd never leave me If I was the one with the illness
