only then it hit me: If I buzz I gotta clean all this hair up and I still have a patchy head left that shows I have a genetic defect. I was MPB one day and Sly the next.
I personally have never thought about I should've done it sooner. I just did it and moved forward.

JB Good, Great that you were able to move form MPB to bald quickly. Not meaning to be critical, but I never thought of MPB as a "genetic defect". Rather, I think it's more of just a different gene that gives men MPB. So, it's more like getting blue or brown eyes. Granted, this MPB gene "kicks in" at different age levels, which makes it different than the eye color gene. But, it's not like a disease or defect that will directly alter a man's ability to function. Society's attitude about MPB and some men's reaction to that may affect their lives, but I never heard of someone dying directly as a result of MPB....so i don't think of MPB as a defect. It's more like a genetic trait. I do think the "hair restoration" industry wants men to think of MPB as a defect or disease that needs to be cured or fixed. Really, since most men eventually have some baldness, it's really quite normal. If men stay physically fit, take care of their bodies, then society should not think of bald men as unfit.
