Hair Loss/Stuff

So heres another random topic, hair loss. I've noticed the past 6 months or so, that my hair is thining a slight bit right in the middle of my scalp, its not a major loss of hair but, its noticeable when the hair is wet...I'm gonna try using that rogaine foam soon to stop this menace from advancing.

Anyone else have hair loss? How do you deal with it?


Now that I think of it, I can't possibly imagine myself having a receding hairline, I already hate the way I look, this will really top off the cake, I swear im gonna like kill myself If I go bald.

I'm really starting to get down lately, especially because of this, I wish I was NEVER born a fucking male to begin with, now im gonna look even more ugly and masculine by being bald one day, if this loss continues... Why the hell does nature have to pile on more shit on top of my shoulders? its bad enough im a guy, but if i turn into a bald guy, i swear im gonna just jump off a cliff and end it all.

:( I hate life, why can't things be fair? :embarrassed:

I'm about a II on this scale right now, and slowly progressing forward. If I were to guess, I'd say I would probably be a V by age 30. I'm fine with it though, my Grandpa and Dad both look good bald, and I suspect I will too. It's just a shame that because of my hair type that I'll look much more Art Garfunkel than Devin Townsend if I grow out my hair when I am bald.

Bald can look good, a lot of famous men have pulled it off well. I have the confidence to pull of whatever 'image' I have I'm sure.

I'm all for aging gracefully and naturally too, so no trying to fight it with (and waste my money on) products or surgery or any of that crap.

Well that's good for you an all but, for me its like a death sentence. Maybe I won't go bald and im just losing a little bit?...I will see one day

I honestly believe that worrying about it will only make it worse. I have thin hair, but when I wash it it seems like a lot of it falls out, so apparently I have a lot of thin hair. I've noticed, though, that when I'm going through a period of time where I'm really stressed out for whatever reason, more hair comes out when I was it and when I brush it. So first off, just relax. Worrying isn't going to bring it back :)

Go ahead and try Rogaine and see how well that helps. If worse comes to worse, though, you could think about getting a wig or toupee. There's really nothing shameful about getting a hair piece or losing your hair. It's genetic and largely out of your control. If you get desperate, some day you can have an implant procedure done.

Meh, I wish I could be as positive as you are, but I'm really never going to be truly happy with my body, but maybe I should chill out and reduce my stress levels...hmm

Hey. At least you aren't a GIRL going bald. Count your lucky stars! It's perfectly socially acceptable, even expected, for men to go bald. Imagine if you were a woman and this was happening to you (and there are many, many women out there who do indeed go bald).

If it means this much to you, definitely try the rogaine. :) I think it's best to start with that kind of product earlier rather than later.

If anyone reading this thread is partially bald and still has long hair, please oh please cut it. :shock:

Anyhoo, two of my absolute favorite men on this planet are so bald that they can only go around with buzzed cuts, and they are DAMN FINE! :drool: Omggg just thinking about them makes me giddy.

If you're confident about yourself, you can pull off any look at all. If you're not confident and hate a lot of things about yourself (which unfortunately sounds like you, by your post), it really doesn't matter if you have the most gorgeous hair in the world because no one will take notice of it. And that's the truth, at the end of the day.

Gimme hug. :hug:
