Balding

After believing for most of my life I would avoid the balding gene that has affected every man on my father's side of the family (a side whose surname, ironically enough, means "one with the curly hair" in Italian), I realize I can't hide. It's coming out.

Should I try Rogaine or just let it go and by some really cool hats?

 

Everyone looks good in a beret.

 

I keep thinning and thinning. Receding hair line really is a bitch.

 

I wish my chest would start to go bald.

 

Outing alert: Clever username is Robin Williams!

 

Why not at least try Rogaine? Screw nature. Let chemistry kick its ass!

Just no comb-overs. Best thing to do when it starts to get really thin up top is to go short with what's left or shave it all.

 

Ditto.

 

Just shave it all off.

 

Rogaine reportedly doesn't work for the front of your scalp -- and the second you go off it, the hair loss resumes.

 

Nowhere near that bad, just the spot over my clavicle in between my man teets. I don't understand it and I wish it would go away.

 

Not sure about the first part, but I would expect the second part to be true.

 

To quote Det. Green from L&O: "White guys shouldn't shave their heads." I agree. Maybe I'll go the Ed Harris route.
