First day on the forum
« on: February 21, 2013, 09:59:25 AM »
Greeting fellow SBG's

My hair loss was primarily genetic and I constantly blame the amount of time I spent wearing a k-pot during my Army years for accelerating the loss, I fully made then plunge and starting shaving it all when I hit 26.  My wife loves my head, a couple of her pet names for me are pumpkin(head) and Megamind. 

I made the mistake the other day of shaving my awesome chinstrap I had going on, good thing it grows back fast.  Now I look like Lex Luthor, lol.

I kind of do not like my head's shine, and haven't gotten around to ordering a matte product.  Are there any retail storefronts that generally carry bald man products?  I know the Post Exchanges always had at the least Headblade and Baldguyz products. 

Anyway, nice to be on the forum.

Cheers

Welcome!  Are you still in a band?  If so, where can we find your music?

Nice to meet you Metelmunkey, you mention wearing a hat while in the military as a possible reason for early hair loss.
I had similar feelings about my time in the Navy, again wearing a hat during most all waking hours was a prerequisite.
