Well spoken i think. However, this is a place where guys agree with you because they met similar fate. I, on the contrary, do not think it is not so easy to part with my hair that was given to me from bith.

Weeeell, not exactly the case...there are a lot of us here that are truly bald by choice because we love it and actually think it looks GOOD!
You may not find help getting your hair back here...this place encourages a totally bald head bro...it's not called "thinning hair guys" or "Sly balding guys"..
it SLY BALD GUYS, zip, nada on the head...like IRSDM said shave your head smooth bro...before anyone knows your thinning...
you think hair gives you confidence...wait till you see what BALD can do for you! ;)

TX for your replies,
Pretty sensible replies and i can see why u guys feel comfortable with being bald. It looks great on all of you 8). I am not so sure that it will look ok/good on me. Furthermore, giving in on this MPB-situation feels like surrendering :-\. Especially because i was the first one to 'coment' on my balding friends. Was convinced about keeping my hair forever and now the jokes on me. :*)) :x! :*)) :x!
shouldn't i give medicines at least a try? I might be hairy on top till i turn the lights off O0
Ik that doesn't work, i can always try to participate in this radio programma. Coins means €300,- cash and heads means going bald:

Hmmm, I knew someone (my old boss and friend) that was a hip guy in a hip industry and he had a combover REAL bad....
I had my head shaved around him for years , he liked it and said he would eventually shave his and his wife was totally shaving his bald 'like mine" O0...
well 12 years later....he buzzed it maybe a #5 on top and almost got rid of the combover completely...almost, well EVERYONE said he looked much better and real good...
but when i talked with him he said he felt sick and that he was giving up once he went further...d@man that's how he felt with a #5!!!!
I really could feel he felt this way...and i forgot to mention in our dept of 18 folks....11 of them where buzzed bald dudes! i of course was the only slick bald dude...and of course in that case the coolest ^-^..
But my point to you is, I can see what you mean, but at the same time trust us...being buzzed bald or slick and sly bald is the opposite of "giving up"...
it's getting WAY more confidence that you're ever had!!!
Dude...trust us!
BTW if going straight to razored bald is too much...bro take it in stages...and no offense, but a buzzcut would be WAY more hip on you than your 80's hair...sorry, but true..
I mean your Brit brother David Beckham is buzzed bald and he comes across as a pretty hip guy!

With respect to the jokes, you've just got to take your licking -- you've got it coming to you. Trust me, I've been there -- not so much about hair but other things. You poke fun at someone about something and eventually it happens to you and they get the last laugh. Just get it over with and it won't be that bad.
Being the last one in your circle of friends to lose your hair is much easier than being the first. You're far more likely to be razzed when you're the only baldie in the group -- and even if you're not, you feel a lot less self-conscious when there are others in the same boat.
The medications are a waste of money. They rarely work, and you'll have to use them for several months or perhaps even a couple of years to know whether they're working for you or not. That's more time you spend worrying about your hair. If you shave it or at least buzz it, it's over. You can stop worrying about it and resume your life. It's a huge relief, as anyone here will tell you.
D.A.L.U.I.:
Medications for MPB aren't covered by health insurance as far as I have seen, they don't have a "great" record according to the information available on the internet, the COST a lot, and at least for this MPB guy minoxidil caused a rash that was treated by a skin doctor--on insurance thank the Good Lord.
Shaving is just SO SIMPLE and so rewarding after dealing w/ the steady and unrelenting loss of hair--just grab on and go O:O, and then there isn't anything to worry about--except relatives and sig others like wives and children. But even with that, free and sly is better.
