26. My issue isn't hair loss, but I kind of understand how you feel.
People have always told me I look great in glasses, but I've worn contacts for years despite the cost and aggravation (I have a difficult prescription) because I was convinced for the longest time that glasses looked horribly ugly; I was teased for them so much as a child. Even hearing that they looked sexy from men, including my husband, just wouldn't convince me. I had to become comfortable with it in my own time. Now, I wear glasses more often than not, though I still have the contacts for the times I relapse. I still have a hard time feeling attractive wearing them, sometimes. My husband loves it, though.

If/until you become comfortable with your hair loss, I see nothing wrong with wearing a good hair piece. You'd probably look just as great, if not better, bald, but only you can make yourself feel comfortable with that. Personally, I find baldness sexy, and I know I'm not the only woman that thinks so. But, I know that isn't always convincing to hear.
