Default what's the deal with baldness?

and why are some men so hung up about it? So you're losing your hair, who cares? Yeah, I had long hair once upon a time, but most of it is gone now. Why waste your money on some BS that probably won't grow anything substantial anyway? Same thing with men who colour their hair. What a waste of time. Embrace the baldness! Combovers are the devil!

I guess for some people it is something that defines you as "getting old." There's no escaping it. It's the same way that I still cling to the fact that although I'm in my mid 30's, I still haven't ruled out getting drafted by an NHL team.

Bald rocks. Never have to worry about the hair.

Balding? Thinking of a combover? Just shave the head!

The last few weeks I have thought about this very topic.

I have thought about shaving my head and trying to go with that look once I lose a significant amount of hair.

Sure Kevin.

We all know you are getting old. Just admit it!

Some people look good bald, and some people don't.

I think I would fall into the latter category.

No matter what, the combover NEVER looks better than being bald.

I have so much freaking hair its a pain in the ass. I would welcome some hair loss and have to avoid cutting it every 2 or 3 weeks. Even though i keep it cropped short these days....its so damn thick its like wearing a rug.

Bald rocks!

I think the going bald hang up is probably a bigger deal for single people. I wouldnt think being bald (not shaved head bald) helps in the ol' confidence department.

You should never have cut your ass hair in the first place. As you've evidently found out, it just grows back thicker.

I'm betting you have cling-on problems.

Heh. I was trying to think of something funny, but my humour level was low. Good one.
