Ohhh man, I'm only 27 and...

[Regret My New Name]

my hair is already thinning...

I'M DOOMED! MY LIFE IS OVER...

*cries* Why can't it be back hairs that are thinning instead?

[Regret My New Name]

1. Hmmm.. I wonder...

Can I transplant my back and ass hairs to the top of my head?

[Kali]

6. I think you can!

but then you would have to become a republican too.;)


be as natural as you can, and don't worry about it - it really is personal confidence that turns most humans on.

[armyowalgreens]

2. I'm 19 and found my first grey hair about 3 months ago.

[Skittles]

38. aw I cannot help myself

52 and have yet to see my first one :D

[Danger Mouse]

3. Welcome to the club. I'm only 28.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. My dear Regret My New Name...

Any woman who judges you on the basis of how thick or thin your hair is, is not worth your time, IMHO!

What's inside your head is waaaay more important than what's on it!

:hi:

[Regret My New Name]

15. "What's inside your head is waaaay more important than what's on it!"

But but but, THAT IS why I'm worried. :P

[midnight armadillo]

5. relax

You have many years before you give in and just shave your pumpkin. I knew a guy who started balding at 16 - nothing wrong, just male pattern baldness very early. Count yourself lucky!

Me, at 34 I have way too many gray hairs...although no signs of thinning. yet.

[Strong Atheist]

7. Recommended,

dammit! x(

[Bicoastal]

8. I'm 27 and I'd trade all my thick, curly, lustrous hair...

...for a steady well-paying job.

I mean, I assume you have one of those things. If not...:(

[Regret My New Name]

16. I better, because rogaine is 30 bucks a pop...

[no name no slogan]

9. It gets worse. That hair that was on your head migrates

to your back and your balls. You'll look like a fucking sasquatch by the time your 40.

Sorry.

[flvegan]

11. Dude, I"m 37. Please don't say that.

I don't wanna be Sasquatch!

[no name no slogan]

13. Just keep waxing

Make sure you can see your reflection in your scrote. That way you know you're doing it right.

[flvegan]

14. If I could see my reflection there,

I wouldn't need a girlfriend.

Thank you, I'll be here all week!

[Liberal_in_LA]

31. ha ha. that was kinda funny

[enigmatic]

10. Try being 23, bald on top and gray haired on the sides, and being in a hardcore punk band!

Before a long ago girlfriend convinced me to shave my head, THAT was a rough couple of years..

[Odin2005]

12. My uncle started turning gray when he was 18.

While my 56yo dad still has no gray hairs! :rofl:

[SoxFan]

17. I went gray at 19

The republic endured.

[LynneSin]

18. Even the Vice President has had hair plugs

So there is hope

[JVS]

25. No way!

[bikebloke]

19. Just comb the hair on your back

up over your head. A comb up, instead of a comb over :P

[Liberal_in_LA]

32. See Donald Trump for advice

[qb]

20. Go with it. Bald is sexy.

[Moondog]

21. Whatever you do, do it gracefully.

I'm on the dark side of 50. My hair started leaving me around 35. I never did the Rogaine thing, or the transplant thing, or the comb-over thing. I just let it do whatever it was going to do. In my line of work, appearing "older", which I did, was not a handicap. But I always would get comments from various people to the effect that they were glad to see a balding guy who didn't have "one of those hideous comb-overs." For what that's worth.

Anyway, a couple of years ago it was completely gone on top. At some point, getting haircuts really began to annoy me. So one day I went in to a cheapy barbershop, and had the guy buzz it down as short as he could get it. As in USMC "high and tight" short. After a couple of days, I shaved off what was left.

I like it. Low maintenance. Cool in the summer; no small thing in FL where summer is about 10 months long. And, weirdly, I look a lot younger. As in 10 to 15 years younger, according to unsolicited comments from people who know me. And while there are ladies out there who do not "like" bald, there are others that not only don't care, and some actually find the look to be appealing. So no net change there.

About the only thing that has changed is that I wear hats if I'm out in the sun a lot. I'm a fair skinned, blue eyed, blonde (well, I was when I had hair), so I have a bunch of Panamas and boonie hats. Oh, and my convertible driving days are over - strictly hardtops for me these days. Otherwise, life is pretty much the same.

Once you get used to the idea, your life will be the same too.

[LeftOfSelf-Centered]

22. Amateur!

I started going bald at 19... I wore a hat a lot in college :)

[SacredCow]

23. Just do it gracefully....

I have the classic receding hairline and (at 38) it's getting pretty thin on top, too. Plugs are out- I'm just not that vain. I keep my hair at 1" or less now, and that's just the way it is. If the thinning ever gets too extreme, I plan to go with the shaved head look.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

24. I wish I had less hair.

The constant haircuts are a pain in the ass.

[MissMillie]

26. I wouldn't worry about it.... I think bald can be very sexy

:shrug:

[NewJeffCT]

27. I'm 42 and still have a head full of thick hair

granted, it's a lot grayer than it used to be... but, it's still there. I got my first gray hairs back in high school, too.

[greggypetty]

28. Life Isn't Over

Your life isn't over...yet. It will be when it is all gone. JK, hope it thins slowly.

[kwassa]

29. God created a few perfect heads, the rest he covered with hair.

[Initech]

30. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Baldness is such a common factor on both sides of my family it's not funny. I should just be like Larry David and embrace my forthcoming baldness.

[KamaAina]

33. Whatever you do, do NOT get a rug!

They look ridiculous and are extremely easy to spot.

[MrSlayer]

34. Start hitting the propecia and rogaine now.

It's not too late.

[gmoney]

35. Buy a nice cowboy hat...

works for Dwight Yoakam (and Hank Williams Sr, too)

No hat - dangerous drifter with cranial damage:


With hat - suave countrypolitan singer:

[BreweryYardRat]

36. Quit worrying about it. Trust me, it could be worse.

A good friend of mine is 21. He's already lost almost all the hair on top of his head. The sides and back are still holding on, but the top's long since given up the fight.

Hell, even my hair's thinning out at the crown a little.

[Skittles]

37. don't even think combover or plugs

keep it short - embrace your thinning hair - don't make it look like you're insecure about it - that's what us gals detest, the guys who display insecurity

[SidneyCarton]

39. Is facial hair a possibility?

If so you could possibly shave your head and grow a goatee, that tends to look good, interestingly enough.

Do you like hats? Maybe you could invest in some classy looking ones.

I'm sorry about the hair, it does suck. I hope the above suggestions do not offend, I really just wanted to help. Best of luck to you.

[NJmaverick]

40. I guess your choices are Rogain or shaved head

how do you look with a shaved head?
