Burr cut at 18 in 1994 when I began balding, my genes hit like a bag of bricks. Mostly shaved since then. Bic that shit or use one of those fancy water proof headshavers.

Even if they gave me foolproof free treatment for a full head restored, I think I'd look weird with hair. It's been too long, no one knows me otherwise. But if they did, I'd never cut it again lol.

Lucky owner of a luscious ball of hair here. It must be truth that baldness jumps over one generation.

Although we have easily acceptable options in the neighborhood, Bosnia and Turkey, I feel like it's kinda cheating the genetics and respectable way of aging with dignity.

What say you!? Is getting a hair transplant Crap or Not Crap!?
On of my workmates did a treatment in a rather expensive spanish (But not to the point of being exclusive) clinic and results are astonishing.

I have pretty long hair now and I imagine I'll be lucky enough to keep it. Going gray already, fuck yea.
I can attest to GuyLaCroix's hair being problematically thick and luscious. The fellow's genetically blessed.

I still have my hair at 38 but it's somewhat wispy. A friend reckons my still having it could be a sign of low testosterone, which is.... worrying.
Having a lot of hair is indicative of low T but like, who's counting? What does it mean? I have bald friends that aren't like, heaving frothing hump machines or whatever high T makes you have.

Slowly thinning out on top but hey being tall not many folks seem to notice, and frankly I don't notice unless I see a picture from a show taken from the back of the audience.

I've definitely noticed my hairline in front starting to move further up, and I try to keep my hair short these days as it was much more obvious when it was long curing peak Covid times.

I've been kinda hesitant to ever shave my head as being a big white guy I don't feel like I need to do anything to make myself look intimidating.

I had an ever growing monk dime and eventually just started shaving my head.

The thing is, when you have some of your hair, you get the people who ask why you don’t shave your head.

Then, after you shave your head, you get a new set of people - who have seen you in 3-D plenty - asking why you shaved your head.

I never felt like I had the right to complain - if that’s generally thought of as one of the worst things a man has to go through when aging then we have it pretty easy.

I'm not balding, but I've been going gray since my 20s. I'm almost completely white and closing in on 50. All I wanna say is, don't fight what your body is doing. I've always just leaned into it. I understand that losing your hair is very different. But I also think balding men can have great haircuts, short, buzzed or not. FWIW, one of my best friends is a balding hair stylist and he's rocking an awesome mullet right now.
