Hair loss sucks
« on: February 02, 2007, 06:00:41 PM »
I know I'll get flamed for this, don't care.

My grandad was bald by the time he was 26.  My dad isn't bald but his hairline is on top of his fuggin head.

I'm 23 and can tell I will soon suffer the same fate... maybe.

My hair line is receding slightly and I want to know if you or anyone you guys know has ever had hair transplants (like Bosley, Hair Club, Med Hair Resto, etc.)

Anyone had any experience with this?  Is it all it's cracked up to be?

I started losing at 19. Twenty years later, I've still got just enough to fool myself when looking in the mirror straight-on. But view me from above and it's like an Arctic ice floe...  :'(

Don't waste your money and what's left of your dignity with any hair replacement crap. Just keep your hair very short (or better: shaved off altogether) and remind yourself of all the bald bad-asses out there...

Haha thanks for the support.

I used to go skin back in high school sometimes but I have to do something.

My head isn't shapely enough to pull off the bald look too well so it's Hair Club or nothing.

It's too bad it's pretty well all genetic.  My dad still has a full head of hair at 48 and my mother's father didn't start losing his hair until he was way older and he is now 75.  My father's father is bald as can be.  Luckily, I show no signs at all at 25.

Yep, sure is.

The thing with hair resto is they take hair from the back of your head (it's genetically immune to the baldness hormone) and move it to the hairline and crown.  It's supposed to last for the rest of your life and never stop growing.

I'm just trying to get an idea of the quality of the proceedures and an idea of the ordeal.

pray to your Star of David, maybe you'll get some hair.

If he would pray to God he could get his hair back. Things like this do happen. There was a woman who was bald and could not grow hair. Then overnight after her praying she got her wish and no one would believe it was real. Full long hair. With faith anything is possible.

Me praying for hair is like you praying for another NAMBLA convention in your village.  A dream come true but about as much chance as your mother turning down $4.50 for a load of my Jewce.

I started thinning at 21 or so, at least that's when I noticed it. Here I am almost a decade later, and while it's obvious I'm thin on top, there is still something up there. Different people lose at different speeds. Some will lose all of it within 3-4 months (happened to a buddy of mine). People like myself, it's a slower and gradual loss.
But, the power is what you give it. If you want to be self conscious about it, then that will show through and you'll come off as inhibited in everything you do. If you don't care, then you'll be confident and that shows through as well. If you really want to go the route of treatments, that's your choice, obviously.
But, just keep it nicely trimmed close to your head. Easy maintenance, covers it up as much as anything possibly can, and you will look like a bad ass (unlike some of the other guys you posted above...Bruce Willis being one of them!).

And the evidence you have to back this up?
Well, in the meantime while you search for it (because you probably made it up), keep posting pics of that hot ass sister of yours! ;D ).

Excellent advice, thanks.

I would never let something like this fuck with my confidence.  But I'm the kind of guy that is always seeking perfection for one reason or another and I would definitely choose to look my best no matter what.

Hairloss does suck, but if it gets really bad, why not get a transplant or regrowth therapy? Advanced hair... yea yea!

Haha... nice.

No my head is more like a bowling ball when shaved.  I think it's almost perfectly round so I'd like to keep my hair as long as possible.

It costs a couple thousand and you have to get it done every 2-3 years as the folicles dont always last or take. Plus the deep roots you can tell when someone has had it done. Not to mention that only 30% of people who get it done have it take probably, other it just doesnt work.

I just speak to Danhead from the back .... he atleast has hair there.  ;D

to pull off 'the bald head look' it's important to stay really lean.

if you're body fat is too high your face will look round.

my 2 cent worth of metrosexual advice.

I started losing mine at 16, DHT is good for your brain and central nervous system bald people are usually smarter and grow faster, don't stress. Mine is falling out so fast every time I shave my head I can see it going further back, nothing you can do.

TA shouldnt be too worried about his hair.... id be more worried about his feet. How is he ever gonna step on the stage with the huge grotesque monkey like creature feet that he has?. I know judges can mark down for synthol use but what about huge gigantuan creature feet that look like something out of the dark ages. Then again he might skip bodybuilding and go straight into movies. When the talent goes to cast he knows where to find monkey man..... in the jungles of Venezuela  ;D

Sadly I doubt there will ever be a cure in pill form for hair loss.  If there was, then all the rogain, hair club for men, pharmacies making propecia/proscar, surgeons and all the rest would be out of business.  You know they lobby congress to keep the real fixes off the market.  They do the same thing for aids and cancer.  If a cure came out then so many people would be out of business
