I never thought it would happen to me. I guess you never do. These things you take for granted, think that they will always be with you, and then, slowly but surely, they start to disappear.
Strand by strand. Clump by clump. Handful by handful.
<p?Some say it’s genetics. Others say too much testosterone, or not the right shampoo, or wearing a hat too tightly. Whatever the reason, it sucks. Why me? Why now? I’m only in my mid-20s, the prime of my life! Isn’t this something that’s only supposed to happen to older guys? I have lots of hair on my ass, why can’t that fall out?
Curse you, mother! They say the receding hairline gene is passed down through your side and as my maternal grandfather always had what looked to be a bird’s nest on his head, you are at least partly to blame.
Curse you, father! You’re balder than Don Rickles.
Curse you, Donald Trump, for making a complete mockery of the combover. It was my only hope, but now, I have nothing.
Rogaine? Shave it all off? Hair plugs? Or just let it wither away naturally, sadly, until there is no more.

just be glad you don’t look like homer simpson.
you have to decide, fake hair looks stupid…and a bald pate CAN look dead sexy. unless you have a weirdly shaped freakish head
Shave it all off!
Men who are bald by choice and proud of it are much sexier than insecure men who try to cover up their baldness with fake hair and come-overs. You can do it!
Say, “FUCK YOU HAIR!!!” ZZZZzzzzz
Shave it & go with it.
Makes the mpb totally sexy.
Shave it off !!!!
wear a flesh colored turtle neck sweater !!!
you’ll look just like an uncircumcised penis, HEY ! a new look might be just the thing to help you in your time of crisis .
A penis with ears…you gotta admit it’ll be different .
Shave it and be yourself… we’re on to the comb-over and there’s just something about touching (petting) perfectly short hair…
Shave it off and buy a nice warm toque.
Shave it! Bald men are sexy when they accept it and don’t try to hide it with wigs or comb overs.
just make sure to post the link for the before and after photos……
there is nothing sadder than seeing a good looking 20ish guy wearing a baseball cap, but when he takes it off, he’s going bald. oh how sad. happy i still have a full head of hair and no receeding hairline in my early 30s.
you could go for the chia hair look or spray on hair…just remember if you do come clean hats are a must in the sun…a newly bald burnt head can be hurty
A friend of mine got the plugs in his early 20’s and if you didn’t know him before, you would never know, he’s got a full head of hair now! Be care though, I think it costs him over $100 every time he gets a haircut because its got to be done by a specialist!
zZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZz meh.
every bald guy I know uses the headblade and avoided the laser comb at all costs.
pppfffttt… laser comb my ass…
