Hi
« on: July 06, 2014, 10:28:05 PM »
I've been visiting this web site for years. My name is Henry and I considered myself Bald by Choice for the last 10 years until recently when I turned 40 years, decided to let my hair grow for 2 weeks and I notice that my top is considerably thinning. I have attached some pictures.
I'm not worried about losing my hair but I always thought that since I was able to keep my hair until my late 30 I was never going to lose it.
Have you guys experienced hair loss after your 40s? How fast can the hair loss be at this age?
Thanks,
Henry

Hi Henry,

I'm glad you are used to the idea of being sly already.  I don't think it should matter how a guy gets to slydome...there is always some type of choice to be made, and you get the same end result.   O0

Welcome, Henry! Looks like the thinning just started hitting you at 40. That said, at least you don't have to worry about what you look like sly. Enjoy the forum!

Hi Henry, I am twenty years your senior and although my hair in general is not thinning, my widow's peak is getting more pronounced. I just went sly six weeks ago. I had let my hair grow longer than it had been in years because I was going to be performing a song with an Elvis Impersonator. I did not want to be out-Elvised. I had been keeping my hair very short for years. When I started letting my hair grow in, I began to see more and more of it on the sink everyday. I had started getting my father's widow's peak in my mid-thirties and quite frankly, thought I had stopped losing any hair in the front. But this Spring and the longer hair proved me otherwise. When I buzzed it down to a half inch in April, the peak was more pronounced than ever. So on Memorial Day it all came off - no more hair on the sink! I read some place years ago that 30% of men in their thirties are bald (or balding), 40% of men in their forties, etc. I am proof that in my early sixties, there is still hair falling out! Enjoy being sly - I am! And now no more worries about how much will eventually fall out.

Welcome, Henry
