Interesting .... I'll make some observations here.

My mum told me once that when my dad was going bald due to MPB he tried to stop it by eating plates of some special food which she said looked like 'snot'. Didn't work for him. I'm sorry that he didn't take a chance and shave his head while he was alive -- I reckon he would have loved the freedom. I am happy to say that I have never had to eat a plate of snot anyway.

Like Andrei says 'the razor is the cure for baldness'.

benlen:
This and stuff like it have been around for years attempting to attribute baldness to anything but genetics––I think the rationale behind it is preying on the false hopes of men who are balding because of genes.

I think a lot of it has to do with, and I can speak from personal experience, that balding men want to blame their baldness not on what is most likely the case––their genes. We feel like we are inherently inferior for losing our hair, that our self-worth is threatened, since we have male pattern baldness. So we want to find any blame in external factors, from wearing hats to chemicals or any other kind of excuse.
