Basic English, my friend. Look up and understand what vanity means before you pound your chest.

Jeez! WTF? You guys are worse than women with their claws out. Call it pride, vanity whatever. It’s being comfortable in your own skin. Some guys are cool with shaving their heads. Some aren’t. I don’t see any issue with doing something to delay hair loss. In no way would I equate it to boob jobs, botox, etc. lighten up and help the guy. I would never do botox, plastic surgery, butt lift but if I was losing my hair, you bet your ass I would try something to correct it.

Jeez!! C'mon! We can't argue about politics and now we can't even argue about hair. Screw you guys, I'm going home!

Bet you would look cute with a bald, shiny, cueball of a head.

Nope. My mother dropped me on a marble coffee table when I was an infant. I have a nice dent in my head. Explains a lot.

It’s one she didn’t mention she’d “never do,” or does that fall under plastic surgery?

I was blessed in the boob department. Even if I wasn't, I wouldn't do it. I'm going out of this world the way I came in.

And no! In before the pic request. Happy Friday, guys.

Hijack over.

I don't know anyone who's tried nutrafol but I take finasteride which is proven to work as it lowers DHT which is what kills your hair.

[Nachbar]

Hair transplant here. 4years ago. Would do it again - looks perfect

[CLTMDA]

Well, you could just try a merkin to see how it looks...

I had a bald high school teacher 40 years ago that described his condition as "further along in the evolutionary process" and I like to go with that.

Have you ever seen an alien in any of these SciFi movies with hair???

Sex drive disappears putting that stuff like minoxidil on your scalp I read.

[Germanauto]

You can try Nutrafol but it's a supplement, meaning it can't stop male pattern baldness if that's what you're experiencing (see a Derm for their assessment).

Finasteride is the first line (it actually prevents DHT formation) but comes with potential side effects including mood/libido issues. Been on it a few years myself.

Topical Minoxidil is only indicated for hair loss at the crown, doesn't work at the hairline. Minoxidil pills help but are usually Rx as an adjunct to Finasteride not on their own.

I'm an M.D.

Been taking it for more than 20 years (closer to 30), have heard about the side effects, luckily I don't get them.

OP, what happened at age 33 when it suddenly started to recede, or slightly before? Stress, change in diet, change in exercise?

For the record, God made a few perfect heads. The rest (including the ones that got dropped on the table like cmyx6go ) he covered with hair.

I'm considering some of those newer lotions for hair removal. When I nick the back of my dome, it's so hard to get the styptic pen in the right spot to stem the blood flow. Some of the head shavers that say 90 seconds to do the whole dome, I'm skeptical.

Theo Von spoke highly of the 2 hair transplants he had. I think Beckham and Tom Brady and a bunch of others all went that route.

I noticed about 12 years ago that my individual hairs seemed less thick, I hadn't eaten any meat besides fish for 7 years. I decided to get back to eating red meat and my hair returned to it's normal state.

good question, I am not exactly sure all I know is when i finally started to cut my hair short and get rid of the long hair i noticed thinning in the front middle and in the crown, I got covid 2 times once in 2021 and in 2022 so I originally thought maybe that had something to do with it cause I always had thick hair up unitl then. But its pretty much stayed the same throughout the past 2 years in terms of the thinning spots not getting any bigger and the hair is still there its just thin not completley gone yet. I still exercise a lot, dont have too much stress at work or at home, and eat ok I could lay off the fried food some and have a healthy sex life im 6ft and 195lbs so idk what it is, probably just lucky genetics and let me add that im adopted so I have no idea what my father or mothers hair looks like.
