Mike the only time I see my hair is in the morning when I comb it after that it never enters my mind what it looks like. Whats happening to you is normal as all others attested, so dont worry about it. keep it short so it doesnt need a lot of maintiance and forget it.

I don't have any digital before picks, but if you look at boxsterfan above you'll get the idea (only a little more chrome). Here is an after pic though. Attached image(s)

Here is a trick Dr. Jain, this crazy Indian guy at one of my former companies usta do...
Seems Dr. Jain was totally bald. He would wear his short hair for three and a half weeks and then all the sudden for about 3 or 4 days, his hair got long. Dr Jain would wear his "long" hair wig so he looked like he needed a trim and mutter in his thick accent.... "I moost go to de barber" and "My hair is getting long" This would go on for 3 or 4 days and all the sudden he would show up one day with the short hair wig on muttering.... I Weent to the barber on New Habben-Abben Nuuuu (New Haven Avenue).... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) |

I call bullshit.
The television is telling you to worry about your hair. The television is telling you to worry about you breath. The television is telling you to worry about your sex appeal The television is telling you to worry about your weight The television is telling you to worry about your age The television is telling you to worry about your job The television is telling you to worry about your car The television is telling you to worry about the size of your television. The television is always trying to sell you something by generating a false need and creating a parrallel between your hair (your ______"whatever)and your self esteem. Hair loss has nothing to do with sexuality except, men who are thinning may have a higher sex drive than men who retain their hair. I've got about 2,453 other things to worry about besides my hair loss. I think Mueller, you may be experiencing some sort of post partum neglect and it has nothing to do with your hair and everything to do with your self esteem. Instead of spending $5000 to get a hair graft, toupe, treatments, etc, go back to school and get a masters degree (or college fund for your kids or medical bills or something that has real value and fuch the superficial people that the rest of us are forced to bear. |

Balding since 30, now 41. Got one of these for my chin wiskers. Take off the foil and run it on my head close. Little brother, seven years younger now does his the same.

Hi People
Unfortunayely hair loss is in my family too...I seem to be a late looser, @39 I am starting to loose more. My Bro has been bald since 22, my Pop as well. The reality is how bad does it affect you personaly? My Bro has a serious complex from this...my ex had the same thing going on about having smaller breasts (they realy weren't that small), thro in the fact that you are single... My point is if it bugs you get it fixed, my Bro pays 10X more for sterio equipement, because he is a hermit... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) If and when my hair loss is at a point that I can't deal, 10K on a credit card, for an extra 20 years of peace...priceless Later (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif) |

Bald and proud of it. I like my money in my pocket (well in my car) and not on my head.
I really don't want offend anyone but, I hate people being manipulated by Madison Avenue. I hate advertising telling people over and over how they should look. Everyday, I see people who ask me "Should I bleach my teeth?".They think white equates with healthy and young. Why? Because they have been spoon feed that. Now we have people who have very sensitive teeth that look like the F'ing moon. And they want me to fix their sensitive teeth so, I tell them to "Stop bleaching and the sensitivity will go away". And they say "I can't do that cause my teeth will get yellow". GRRR! Everybody should just try to be happy with what they are and deal with the things they can control. Rant over. Mike as soon as the kids get home you won't have time to worry about a little bald spot. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif) Dave |

Its actually much cheaper now to get a haircut.
Before I had to go get it "styled" $25-35 every two months Now I go get a buzzcut for $10 every two months. I suppose I could get Monique to do it but I like going to the female stylist and getting that massage of my balding head. Seriously, I would worry more about getting fat, your blood pressure etc so you can keep up with your girls later on. They will love you if you don't have hair but they are going to keep you busy the rest of your life! Stay in shape and stay healthy!

Hey, balding is a sign of verility! At least that what my wife likes to say. She likes the thinning cover. Can't say it's my favorite thing, my head gets colder in the winter without a hat. But so what!
With the stratospheric cost of Hair Clubs and the absurd look of implants, and the ineffectiveness of the rest, why would I bother? That time and money is far better spent on better things... Like my 5 month old daughter. Who's just going to accelerate my hair loss in around 13 years anyway... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Or my 914! Geez, $300 a month for the teener? I'd have a six in no time!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) I think the last few posts nailed it. You know who you are! Your wife loves you, your daughters will love you, your 914 loves you (I hope), what more do you need? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif) And keep in mind that you're not actually -llosing- the hair. It's just migrating south...

It's just hair, not sure why people get so worked up over it. It's not like someone stole our 914s or something (now that'd be something to worry about).
I've been cutting my own hair for about 5 years now, since I'm loosing it. Just cut it nice and short every other week or so and it looks good. Kind of a dave mathews meets dave letterman look (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) I'm 29 and don't sweat it at all. I'd rather have $ in my pocket for toys, car and house mods. Oh yeah, once you are totally bald, just say you are from the future...there is no genetic reason for hair anymore, so we are just more evolved. When was the last time you heard of an alien encountere where the alien was hairy (excluding Chewbaca). |
