David? Rogaine?

[Brooks]

I'm in the same boat. Been thinning for the last few years. Rogaine is an option, I suppose, and I can't say I haven't tried it.
But do you really want to be waxing gross shit in your hair twice a day for the rest of your life?

Best bet is to live healthy (eat well, breathe, stretch), eliminate as much stress from your life as you can, exercise, and don't worry about it.

I realized once that the biggest difference between people that are balding and people that aren't, is that only people that are balding stress about balding. Completely anecdotal and unscientific I know, but worth considering, I think, especially if it works in reverse....

Stress isn't a factor anymore, genetics took over.

 

[Brooks]

jus' sayin'

 

[Anvil]

I'd say shave the head, go for the giant beard.

 

[azal]

go for a sick trump status multi-directional combover

there is really no use in stressing about balding. Genetics are genetics they does what they does.

I can pretty much trace my balding exactly with my grandfather on my mom's side. Same hair color, same rate of hair loss, same everything, that's just how it goes.

it's funny that my father has more hair than I do now.

People say it's because I wear hats all the time, I'm sure it doesn't help, but hat or not, if you are built to bald, you're gonna go bald.

I look sexy in hats and my beard is serious so I'm not really stressing about not being able to rock a faux hawk when I'm 40.

how much do those plugs that rich dudes like enrique iglesias have go for? shit looks pretty real.

Either way, his dad embraced the bald and still slaps teenage titties well into his 60s. truth speak.

Fuck it. Don't be in the bald closet, just come out!

 

[Dead_Lioness]

I don't go to metal shows anymore.

Wow.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

I'd say shave the head, go for the giant beard.

...and always wear flannel shirts, wear combat boots, dirty jeans, and don't shower for 3 weeks at a time.

In other words: move to Jersey.

 

[Chromatose]

That's an excellent idea!

 

[Malergion]

My family has smugly asssured me for pretty much the last 20 years that, due to genetics, I am doomed to baldness. I've yet to start losing hair.

However, I've resolved that if I do, I won't bitch and moan about it. Maybe I'll grow my hair out again and go skullet.

I think if you're a bit bald on top, keep it nice and short. If you're in good shape, women will still think you're sexy.

Buzz cut. End of story.

I've heard that hair genetics in men comes their mother's side and that a good way to predict what your hair will do is to look at your grandfather on your mom's side. So this totally corroborates that.

In my case, my grandfather was 83 when he died with a full head of black hair. Some gray patches here and there. Werd.

Edit: Lol, I nearly forgot I am a bastard child and I don't know anything about my "father's" side of the family. FML

 

[Dead_Lioness]

That's an excellent idea!

I know, right?

 

[azal]

I think if you're a bit bald on top, keep it nice and short. If you're in good shape, women will still think you're sexy.

yeah keeping it cropped is the only way to go.

You can also avoid having to go to the gym and just buy an expensive car.

 

[derek]

Or do both and have threesomes in the back of your Porche.

My jeans are clean, thank you. And I only wear boots on special occasions. And I shower regularly.

Another reason I don't go to shows, Karen, is I really am not that social, and have a bit of a problem being in crowds, especially ones that are usually 5 years younger than me, screaming, slamming into me, the stench, the dehydration and no viable water at REASONABLE cost... adding in the fact the noise just HURTS. I'd rather go to a nice Braums and have a burger and an ice cream in the dark of loneliness.

As for keeping it short, I do this usually:
