I believe Brad Pitt says the secret to him still having all his hair is that he says he doesn't wash it all that much and I believe him especially in the years when he had his hair long. I have black hair and I can't pull that off as if I go a day without washing my hair it literally shows a grease sheen.

Would you rather have a small penis or kept your hair into your 40's?

Premature balding or erectile disfunction?

I thought manscaping increased the perceived size.

I think the question is posed improperly. the bald "at some point" leaves a lot of different options open.

IE: If I'm going bald at 60 vs grey at 25, definitely choosing the "bald at some point".

But if I'm going bald at 25, I would rather be going grey.

Both should be framed as happening early IMO. Does anyone really care what their hair is like at 60? It's likely to be bald AND grey at that point.

Turning 33 this year. My hairline has receeded a tiny little bit, but my hair comes down past my nipples and I don't tie it up, so you can't tell. If it's true you get your hair from your mother's side of the family then I'll have a full head of hair until I die. It might turn stark raving white, but it will be there.

I will become Gandalf. It has been fortold.

I think it's a good question. Is it better to use a nice head of hair to help pick up more women only to end up with them disappointed in the bedroom? Or would it be better to maybe get less hook up opportunities but end up with more repeat business from satisfied ladies?

I'd probably choose having one arm over having a peenie weenie.

Having a genuinely small penis would probably scare you from making a move anyways.

You really shouldn't be so hard on yourself.

I remember boasting to my friend at about 22-23 years old that I bet I'd have a full head of hair for many more years (due to my mom's side of the family having thick heads of hair). That thinking wasn't as foolproof as I thought as karma bit me in the ass and I swear, not a week later, I started noticing my hair falling out.

Around last year (when I was 28), I decided to start buzzing my hair on a bi-weekly basis, as it was pretty noticeable that I was thinning and keeping the hair wasn't doing me any favors.

And honestly, it's not a big deal. Most of my friends applauded me for embracing it as opposed to holding on to a receding hairline. Hasn't impacted me regarding females in any way either.

Are there times I think about getting a transplant? Sure. And who knows, maybe one day I will (I still miss my hockey hair days). But at the end of the day, it's all about confidence bro.

lol I had the opposite. Buzzed my hair at 21, stopped buzzing it at 24 and everyone told me to never buzz my hair again.... unfortunately I probably won't have much of a choice by the time I'm 30.

I personally liked how it looked and the convenience is severely overlooked by those that have never had a buzzcut. It's not just about doing it and getting haircuts. It's also never having to worry about how it looks after doing something that makes it awesome. Hats, helmets, water, wind, people, scratching your head, none of it matters. That's why I miss having it buzzed. However I'm pretty vain so the fact that people tell me I look better now means I'm milking my hair until I no longer can.

Have had my hair like this for 25+yrs.
