Going bald - what do?

But all else equal then hair > bald.

I've had experiences that could go either way.

In business meetings, I've seen people regularly gravitate towards listening to the confident bald man, over the blue eyed CEO with a full head of hair; who is equally confident, and significantly more attractive.

I've seen hot Korean bitches swoon over the bald Chinese guy, over the exotic Spanish guy.

I've seen blonde German chicks reject guys from American TV, only to chase the chubby bald guy who demands power.

I've seen French milfs outright snub the attractive American, only to chase the less attractive bald man.

With all that said, younger chicks definitely have an aversion towards bald men, but the 25+ crowd seems to dig the confident bald guy; plus they give better head, fuck like rabbits, have better hygiene, and have often discovered the kitchen,

Attraction and attractiveness aren't the same thing as women get older.
 


Pass. Dudes be droppin' skirts with no hair.

Shave that shit.

I used Rogaine and it really worked. However, I had to quit using it because it messed with my A-Fib (heart) issues. Figures found something that worked for me, but couldn't use it because of a stupid heart complication. Can't take most cold medicines either.

I don't think it works for everyone. I had friends try it, and it didn't help them at all. I would estimate in the short time I used it, roughly 25% of my hair grew back. Weird thing it was growing in different directions. Like instead of laying back it was growing forward. No big deal just different.
 
Ditch Winnie if you do. If you don't just shave it off. I'm actually getting gray and loosing some hair on the forehead but, I don't give a shit. I look more serious right now I guess.
 
^---- I know a guy who bought some of the newer (?) stuff that's not spray paint, like above, but a powder that you shake onto your head like a pepper shaker.

Seeing the product ads on Youtube and their website, I figured it would be junk, but I know a guy who got some and it worked surprisingly well. VERY well, actually, at least based on the few minutes I saw it on him.

I think it was the one called "Toppik" - I'd link to it here, but then their adsense/Youtube ads will follow you EVERYWHERE for at least a month. :)

Doing anything but shaving it is really gay

Except lying on your back with your legs over your head and wanking onto your face and rubbing it in, to massage the testosterone back into your scalp. Thats straight shooting
 
I know that a lot of people swear by shampoos with ketoconazole, at least from what I've seen on some forums.

Now, I don't really know anything about balding myself. I have a full, thick head of hair. Though I have been using ketoconazole shampoo for around 13 years. Coincidence?

If I lose mine, I'm probably just going to get whatever Jeremy Piven and Ben Affleck (except for the facial hair) and those guys get. I don't have the right shaped head for the bald look.
 
For the record, I'm still taking Finasteride (posted pics back on page 2) and it has literally saved my hair.
 
So much misinformation in this thread. But some good info as well.

Try fucking having aggressive MPB at 18 years old. Fuck if you can just shave it and move on, you're dealing with it like a man. Me? I'm dealing with like a pussy and/or gay webmaster.

Just let me clarifiy, women like a man with a full head of hair (I can show you studies). Now, try being 18 and balding and tell me I just need to fucking confident. Bitches, especially young bitches don't want no bald ass motherfucker. You can pull all your fucking anecdotes about that one time you saw that bald guy get some till the rooster comes home to fuck you in the ass, but the bottom line is - bitches can't run their hands through your confidence.

Now let me reiterate - if you went bald and just shaved it, you're the bigger man than me. But unless you shaved that shit at 18 you should not and cannot claim that I'm being a pussy because its a lot different when you're 18 and when you're 35 with a fat wife with saggy tits and 3 kids (no offense).

I always knew I was going to be hit by that sweet, sweet, follicular death as I just needed to look at my extended family. I was an Advanced Norwood Spotter* since the ripe age of 16. I will not hesitate to admit that for the past 2 years I have studied the art of MPB. Between countless hours on weird underground hairloss forums and time spent reading clinical studies (once again, lol @ anecdotes) I now wield uncanny knowledge and can say with a relatively high degree of certainty that I will never be bald even though I was meant to be bald as fuck.

I could write a huge in-depth knowledge drop post about MPB and of course, what you can do to fight it. But it seems most of you seem content with shaving it which I applaud.

In conclusion I would just like to say, stay away from propecia/finasteride (aka dick poison).

Minoxidil works. Don't wipe it on your crotch. Saw Palmetto should help as well, and will lower your risk of EP, but may make you a bit sluggish. Fina works under the same MoA.

If you're overweight... lose the weight. You'll look better as a fit bald guy than a fat mofo. I don't suffer from androgenic alopecia, but a lot of my friends have found luck with Minox and Saw Palmetto.
 
Have you seen some re-growth too?

Yes, the thinning on my crown has been reversed for the most part. I'll be honest, a year+ ago I was always conscious of having to bend down or being in a position of having the top of my head exposed around people because it almost always brought up the topic of how I'm losing my hair and that I'll be bald in another 2-3 years. I always played it off like no big deal, but deep down I was like "fuck my life...".

I can actually style my hair like a faggot hipster right now if I wanted too, that's how much progress I've made on the crown. I'll snap a pic within the next day or two and post a side-by-side comparison of a year ago before I started treatment.

And no side-effects, my dick still gets hard from just a soft breeze of the wind.
