Follicular Fears

I am going bald. That is all there is. That is what will happen. The implacable march of time is taking its toll on my scalp. Ok…I know what you’re thinking. I’m vain. But truthfully, would you like to walk around with wispy fluff poorly concealing a shiny 8 ball on your head? Truthfully.

The saddest part is I don’t usually care about my looks. But this time things are different. I’ve already started a comb-over. Am I going to be one of those forty year old men with pot-bellies, and heads that remind one of bowling balls? Men who really believe that a three second hair dye and a comb-over hide that infamous ‘sheen of a million suns’?

Some men age gracefully. Sometimes I feel that grey hair is quite becoming in some cases. But is a bald spot? Especially considering the fact that I have a forehead that competes with Venezuela in terms of area. This year will I have to say goodbye to my hair? Well, it was good while it lasted…

HAHHAHAAA!!
Go get a wig. THats the best advice i can give you. if that's too expensive, get your head shaved. Since you never cared about your looks, it shouldn't be a big deal if you end up looking like an ostrich with specs right??

There's things like hair transplant. I have an uncle who I've alawys known to be bald (absolutely) and i was supposed to meet at the airport, except he turns up with flowing hair and I failed to recognize him. And trust me it looked as good as real.
But honestly I find "teko" guys very sexy. So don't worry too much, that will add to the loss.

you can really make a fashion statement... turn it to your advantage.

My hair is also thin ... has always been thin ... and it looks as if I am losing hair but its just the way it is...

pipsqueak: head shaving...i told u im vain! wig...dude im 19! ur not helpin :P

sensational: not a bad idea...

m: i kinda lack the money. hey, you find teko guys sexy??!!?? there is a god!!

ashmi: if only i had a fraction of the charm that agassi posseses, i wouldnt care if i looked like the hunchback of notredame! you think my blog, my pride, my pinnacle of graphic design is sloppy? boo-hoo ;)

rita: im not bald yet. very encouraging! ;)

ancalgon: a fellow baldie-to-be! ave! when i was a kid i had nice thick hair. but ive had a receding hairline for as long as i can remember! good luck in converting your thinness of hair/baldness to sexiness. if you can successfully do that, tell me how! btw what does ur name mean?

cat: toupees look good???? are you crazy? they look like roadkill on the heads of otherwise decent people!

There's agassi to start with....and then Captain Jean-Luc Picard of Star Trek fame (Patrick Stewart) and there's Yul Brynner of course and Sean Connery and now Bruce Willis. I think the bald thingy brings out the eyes. So dontcha worry....you'll do fine either ways.

no, you got me wrong dear...i don't blog, your pride or your graphic design is sloppy...was that misinterpretation intentional?...;-)...anyways whichever way you are bald or not just think you are charming and cool and that'll see you through these disgusting balding days :-)
