Dealing With Baldness

problem solved > headshave

It's the cheapest and most practical solution to hairloss. There's nothing to lose, except yourself if you can't accept it. Considering other hair options, you'll end up getting a head shave sooner or later.

Don't be a wimp, shave the darn thing.

Was the easiest thing for me.

What's the big deal?

When my hair got patchy, I dealt with it by covering it with a hat.
Who was I fooling. Only myself. The best way to deal with baldness is to come clean and headshave.
Show the world you have nothing to hide.

Got the right idea, mate. Couldn't agree with you more.

I have nothing to hide. I rarely wear a hat. My head is open for all the world to see.

A hat is a necessary accessory when you're head is exposed to the elements. Be sensible and wear one when
the weather dictates.

I don hats mostly in the winter. My aged noggin' can't take the cold anymore.

My head's been bald for so long (talking decades here), that it doesn't even feel the cold.

Sir, either you live south of the Mason-Dixon line or you have a serious problem with your circulation.

Show some respect for your elders.

Some people are just tougher than others.

Yeah :: What Tom said . !

South Dakota born and raised and sported a high and tight crew most of my childhood. But after five years in the desert, my bald head requires protection from the cold, especially when returning for those frigid late December holiday reunions with the family.

Brrrr.

Just wondering how you North Americans would put up with the ever changing fluctuations over here.

We grin and bare it all.

So true!

Going back to the first post on this thread, yeah it was sure hard for me to accept what was happening when it began around age 19. Denial became my first instinct. Now I think we are positive role models for all the guys facing similar issues, helping to dispel the notion that the only way to deal with baldness is embarrassment, a rug, a combover, or a transplant.

Never see guys with toupees or combovers anymore. Bald is bad a$$.

I saw a bad rug the other day, and I have a buddy who still sprays a few long hairs across the top of his head. As far as Bald is bad a$$, you got that right!
