Introduction
« on: February 17, 2008, 03:51:31 PM »
Hi everyone,

I'm Tom, 26 years old and losing my hair. It's not really noticeable to anyone but me yet (just thinning in the front), but in looking at my dad and grandfather I know where I'm headed.

Anyway, I really just wanted to introduce myself and reiterate how awesome this site is. I've been depressed about losing my hair but this site has really helped with that. In the near future I'm going to get a really short haircut (maybe #2 or #3 clippers) and eventually it's all coming off. I'm actually somewhat looking forward to going sly and not ever having to worry about hairloss again!

All the support on this site is great. It's made this process a lot easier. Thanks guys.

Welcome Tom.  Glad you are taking the bull by the horns.  Post up and post often.

You'll never go back.  You will find that once your dome is liberated of all that bulky hair you will pick up an additional 6th-sense.  You can tell where the wind is coming from,  since strangeness in the air .. it's pretty cool .. plus,  nobody will ever accuse you of finding your hair in their food!

Thanks guys.

Once I'm ready for another haircut - about a month from now - i'm going with the buzzcut, which I've never done before. I'm a little nervous but I figure that's the first step before going sly. I'll let you know how it goes.

Welcome, Tom.  Don't be afraid to just take it all off.  However, I do remember that it took me several years.  But looking back, I wish that I had done it sooner and hadn't wasted all that time worrying about my thinning hair.

Best of luck,
Rick

Tom, welcome, great to have you aboard.   Go for it bro, buzzing it down is only going to make you want to go sly so avoid the in between steps and start enjoying life now.
