Quote:Shave it, definitely. Better to take control and look intentional.

+1 to this.

I've been going bald since I was 24. When my hair got to the point where it was too thin to cover up with creative styling, I shaved it off, and haven't looked back since. As soon as you start having to style your hair to try and cover it up you just end up looking insecure. Which is not something you ever want to communicate.

You need to accept that its happening, and just get on with it. Sure there are ways to slow its progress but they're all expensive and come with side effect.

Embrace who you are man, you'll be happier in the long run. Trust me.

Absolutely shave it, with clippers or a razor if you want to go all out I use clippers with no guard. My brother's mates ask him things like "does your brother shave his head or is it like that naturally". I, of course, thought this was insane but I realized people just aren't as observant or bothered about it as you are.

You guys should shave your head, so you look more like me. I'm going to delete this image soon though, I don't want to out myself in real life.

Nice try Rio. Fisto sent over a picture of you the other day.

Little bro science here but worth a shot. Do headstand ten minutes a day on a wooden board with a towel on it. Supppsedly increases blood flow to the scalp and promotes growth.

Also obviously stop using shampoo. Biotin I've heard helps as well.

Have a buddy who did hgh and has a full head of thick hair. His brother is bald and dad is bald looks like the gene skipped him or the hgh helped him. Food for thought.

I think El Mech has a better win record. SEA must age you very fast.

Anyone take Biotin? How's it working out?

Post: #35

Biotin only makes your existing hair stronger but doesnt do anything to treat male pattern baldness

I use Biotin, my hair is thicker and healthy looking than it was prior to taking. It also makes it grow quicker.

I'd been on Propecia for a while without any side effects but around February I started noticing a lack of libido and reduction in boner strength. I got my T levels checked and they were much lower than I expected, I came off the Propecia straight away but shortly afterwards I started experiencing some shedding.
I saw an article on good looking loser about a compound called RU58841 and decided to give that a try. I've been using it for about 6 weeks now, shedding has stopped, hair is thicker and there seems to be some regrowth. Libido and boners are back to normal and a blood test from last week showed my T levels had shot up. So far so good.

Receding hairline here. The following definitely worked for me and is cheap, easy and with no side effects:

Grow facial hair for 1 week

Buy Beard Trimmer - I use Remington MB320C Barba Beard Trimmer (costs £22.99 on Amazon)

Trim above lip and around chin at Grade 4

Trim rest of beard at Grade 2 to angle out the face (don't ask me why this looks good, it just does)

Shave head with razor - loads of guides on Youtube on how best to do this

Use Dove Summer Glow on head and face if you are pale skinned - if not, no worries as you'll already look good (£2.99 a bottle on Amazon - a bottle lasts about 3 months)

Wear open necked tops, such as shirts and v-necks

Stay in shape

= Looks good and 'owns' the look.

I am bald and so shaved all the hair off. But the trouble is, the head looks very shiny which makes me somewhat self conscious. Is there a way to make the shine dissapear?

Try the Dove stuff as it has a matt effect.

Ps - I can happily report I am not connected to Dove in any professional capacity...!!
