Guys with hair loss, time to come out of the closet.

[K]

I've had massive hair loss over the last few years and haven't done anything to slow it down until now. I'm diffuse thinning AND I am balding in the front and in the crown. It's a cluster****. What bothers me is that I have less women hitting on me than before. I've never been a guy that sleeps around with a lot of different girls, but now that I feel my blonde mane is leaving me, I'm starting to miss all these opportunities I haven't taken because it won't be as easy in the future. Girls LOVED going through my hair because it was very dense and fluffy and blonde. I look great with hair, no self homo, but I'd look like an idiot without hair and in a couple of years unless my solutions slow it down I'll have to shave it off completely. ****ing bullshit. :banghead:

PS: No, I won't post pictures. This website has far too many creeps on it and I prefer anonymity online anyways.

just go bald.

[K]

just go bald.

I wish I had the right skull shape for that. I'm going to drag it out as long as I can. Right now looking at me you couldn't see the hair loss. I have a lot less density than I used to and far less fluff, there is very little cushion between the top of my hair and the skin, but so far the baldness itself isn't noticeable unless you go through my hair or its wet or a nice breeze of wind blew through it. Because the hair I still have left is pretty thick though not very dense. I can still disguise it easily without looking pathetic. I think I can do 2 more years of that at the current rate of hair loss. Then it's shaving time unless the treatment I just started works to slow it down. I at least want to keep enough so that I can make use of some future technologies like the hair follicle duplication that's being tested.

Damn, I just realize how pathetic this sounds. :oldlol:

Losing hair = turning gay? I had no idea.

Huh? If you're going to troll me do it right.

I love how men with hairloss always go "you can't really notice right now, but". People notice bro. Start sporting the short look now before it's too late.

I started thinning up top a few years ago. Just shave it all off now, it's easier than trying to hide it.

[eriX]

mate, im hitting 20 this year and i'm pretty much bald at the front. Not because i havent seeked helped or taken medicine but genetics is genetics theres nothing i can do and i've accepted that already. I too used to have the thickest hair of anyone i know and i have no idea why it caused me to loose it so early.

See the thing is it would only affect you if you let it affect you, I've been shaving my head by myself for nearly 6 months now, nice short and clean. Theres nothing wrong with wearing a beanie through winter or a hat through summer, but if you are bothered by how other view you then you gotta learn to handle it because even if you don't your hair is falling off anyways.

Damn. Thats way too early, are you sure your docs arent missing some kind of a condition or something?

Permanent beanie in the winter, fedora in the summer. Perfect.

Propecia works you know. I've been taking it for 15 years and have kept my hair.

[Thorpesaurous]

I started losing mine probably around 20 too. I was in college anyway, I know that. I had blonde hair too, thick and full. I kept it long on the top and shaved up the sides, as was the style at the time. And by letting the sides grow in for just a month or so, I could look pretty presentable for stuff like job interviews or family things if need be, although it wasn't a bad look anyway.
I didn't start to notice it until I was reading in college, and it would fall down toward my book, so I'd be pushing it back behind my ears, and I could feel the B line starting to move. It wasn't the crown friar tuck thing, just sort of straight back, like a young Bruce Willis, sort of B-Line effect. I was able to hide it for a while because the hair was long enough to fall over it, but after a while it wasn't worth the energy. I finally shaved it all off probably 6 or 7 years ago, and it's just so much easier.

I had friends who use Rogain and or Propecia, and it just seemed too expensive and more work than I wanted to do compared to just shaving it off.

[Dragonyeuw]

I was shaving my head real close when I had a full head of hair. Now that mother nature is taking it from me at 35, people have long been used to my bald look. Embrace it I say( hopefully you have the head shape for it lol). And the women I've been with in the past 10-15 years love the look and like rubbing my head lol. Trust me man, play it right and you'll have no issues attracting females sans hair....

[eriX]

Damn. Thats way too early, are you sure your docs arent missing some kind of a condition or something?

I've checked up on a hair specialist, blood tested everything and plus my dad used to be a doctor and had connections to medical side of things and the only thing that really works in terms of regrowth is finasteride or also known as Propecia and been taking that for like a year and a half and nothing really in terms of growth. Just got hit with the bad genes.

I'm 24 and my hairline has receded a bit, I've got that widow's peak now. My 92 year old grandfather still has pretty much all his hair. Some people just get screwed lol

[fiddy]

What about hair transplantation? Anyone explored that as an option?

[2LeTTeRS]

So true. I've been shaving every day for about 2 years now. Sucks to an extent to not have hair at 28, but got tired of fighting the great "recession." Plus on most people a baldy looks 100 times better than thin spots or the old receded hairline.

[magic chiongson]

i've been shaving my head the past 10 years. started in college..when i first noticed my hairline started receding i grew my hair shoulder length, rocked it for about a year, & shaved it over the summer.

Approaching 34 too quickly.

[mlh1981]

I'm still going strong, but it runs in my family, so I think it's bound to happen at some point.

I have friends who I only see every so often, and it seems like hair loss can be one of those things that happens quickly. Like, over the span of a year or so, they can go from having a slightly thinning hairline, to being practically bald.

[knickballer]

Hair loss can be totally random. You can be having a maturing hairline or you can just be thinning(but not balding).. I'm sure you may know this but if the men on your moms side of the family has decent hair then there's a decent chance that you'll have decent hair as well.

Does your granddad(on mom's side) and your father have decent hair?


I'm worried about the eventual(if) hairloss stage but I have nothing to worry about right now as I have a full head of lucious hair(but I am noticing some thinnining near my right template). IMO balding after age of 40 is fair game but anything under 30 is just unfair..

I also lol @ the people who have more pub and chest hair than their head hair

Or so I thought. My grandfather on my mom's side had a thick head of hair till the day he died. My hair started thinning/receding in my late 20s. Then it tapered off. I'm left with some recession in the temples and a thin spot on the top back. I've been that way for the last several years. Not quite the Friar Tuck look yet.

[K]

Hell yeah. I decided to just say "screw it" and shaved it all off. I look like the German version of Jason Statham. I haven't seen my scalp since I was 15. I thought it would be a disaster but my head has gotten a lot more masculine and fuller since then.

R.I.P. blonde Jesus. Welcome Nordic Jason Statham.

My suggestion is to use Nizoral shampoo twice a week, and hair oil.

It has reversed my hair thinning and my hair looks good now. It is still thinner now (27) than I was when 21...but it is actually getting better each month back to really thick and looking good.

For some of us (i got a small head) we don't look that good with short and/or bald so gotta do what we can.

I've never heard of it until now. Is there something specific in the shampoo to help with the thinning hair? I read mainly it's for preventing dandruff and itchy scalps. I currently use a regular anti-dandruff which is great, but my hair is getting thinner all the time.

I'm 25 now, and first noticed it when I was 21-22. My hairline isn't too bad, but I do anticipate the 'devil horns' starting to come along in the next few years. If I could get my hair thicker again, it would look a lot better and I'd have more options for hair styles etc.

This website is quite good and tells a lot about this if you are actually interested.

http://www.hairlosstalk.com/hair-loss-treatments/nizoral/

I think for the most part using just that Nizoral has done wonders for me.

I might try to add something topical in such as the Topical Spironolactone S5 Bedtime Cream to further add to the prevention, and Tricomin Therapy Spray to get my hair growing powers leveled up when I move back to the US. A bit hard to get those outside the US for me since I would have no idea what they'd be at a store here.

[dude77]

some guys can pull off the bald look .. but if your skull is the wrong shape, you're fkd

[gigantes]

thanks for the info. i should really start on that shampoo or something like that. been using toppik and cutting my hair short on the sides to maximise the look. but time's running out on all that...
