Or odd, or something?

When I’ve slept on a bed without a headboard, my pillow tends to fall off the end of the mattress as I push it around when I sleep. The headboard acts as a fence to keep the pillow on the bed. To me, a mattress sitting on a box spring held up by a frame doesn’t look so much cheap as incomplete. But since the bed is typically out of sight in a bedroom, people generally don’t sit around gazing at it.
Depends on the interior design
In a Victorian bedroom it’s out of place, in a modern it can be fine. In a Murphy bed it’s really odd
No.
Dude.

I’m glad that you’re at that economic stage that you’re worried about guests and decor

if they care about how your private space is set up, they don’t need to be there
Take me, for example. I’m judgy as hell but I’ll never get an invite to your bedroom and that’s totally okay. Assholes like me don’t need to be over to your place making all these judgements. Your friends and lovers will be glad for your company and it’s all good.
Also, when I was a kid were were too poor for carpets to cover the rough flooring under some rotting carpet we pulled up, so to reduce the splinters from walking around someone gave us a bunch of blue latex paint that kinda sealed the wood a bit as it coated. We were definitely ‘no headboard’ poor but we got better.

They are clutter magnets, we got rid of ours.
According to me, who cares. According to my wife though, buy a fucking headboard! :D
My bed didnt have a headboard. Nothing wrong with that.
I will say its kinda nice to have but plenty of beds dont have it. I’m sure some people see it as odd or cheap but who cares what they think? Its my bed. And a headboard can be added to most frames. Hell i used 2 ikea tables mashed together as headboard for a while.
I’m pretty sure there are also just headboards one can buy as a separate thing so if one finds a need for it, grab it later.
Personally the only thing I really like about headboards is the ones that have a reading light and/or a bit of storage built in.
Yea I grew up without a headboard and don’t really notice it, but I can see how it might make the room look empty.
Personally I think
Good headboard > no headboard > bad headboard
I’d rather not have one that’s loose/shaking/damaging the wall
What makes a bad headboard?
Some of them shake and rattle whenever you move little, or how you can’t push against them without it damaging the wall
I’d assume cheaper ones aren’t that great, but I don’t have specific buying advice
That’s something only a headboardless bed owner could say… pathetic
Jk, totally true especially the part with do not care so much about what other people think
I like to hang my toes off the end of the bed, not a fan of headboards.
Turn the other way?
Yes, it is seen as cheap because it is cheaper.
Short answer yes it’s seen as the cheaper option. It depends on the style of room but can make the area look, “incomplete”.
I’ve only heard of that if you don’t have something below the mattress
