Bald Facts...
DuffRyder17:
According to Provillus( forgive the mention of the enemy, but yea I have used it, sorry not proud of that lapse in judgment in my life)
2/3 of men will experience hair loss by the age of 35.
85% by the age of 50.
and I do believe that the number of women who suffer hair loss is surprisingly large to most

Now that sly is becoming more and more mainstream, I think the count is being grossly underestimated. I believe that number will go up exponentially and not a flat 4 mill a year. Not an approximation but i'm thinking more like 4 mill, 6, 10, etc...
Remind me in a few years to revisit this. Thanks.

Just another prime example that 35% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Having 50 barely in my rear view mirror, I can assure you the ladies have the problem too. Several of my wife's friends are full time "wiggers" now, and my wife is very creative on coverying some thinning that has appeared in what used to be a head of hair that required her hairdresser to thin it before proceeding! I think the estimate is conservative. As for the guys, just look in the elevator at work, thinning, wispy, holes in the back, and frank profound baldness--at least 50%. We wouldn't have so many slys and buzzed guys if that wasn't the case.
