Six years, thats how longs I have suffered with my hair. It's not easy going bald at seventeen and then by 22 being a Norwood 5 but I guess that's life. Using all the rogaine and propecia in the world never really helped me, possibly slowing the inevitable down and then the concealers. Well, what can I say, even if people didn't notice them it didn't stop me wondering all the time if someone was looking at my hair and wondering what the hell??? Well, I am going away for the next four months so I thought it's now or never. Went to a pro hairdresser who used a three blade all over but I was unhappy. Just a chunk at the front and big gap between crappy see through hair. All the volumisers and concealers in the world couldn't do anything for it so I took out my own clipper and did a one all over. The white where my hair was is not flattering but I guess that will fade with time and some fake tan for the time being. The relief was unbelievable. At last I was free, hair didn't control me and I had four months to get used to it by myself. Perfect!!! And you know I think it looks quite good, even my parents said it looked quite good on me. I would like it to grow a little more, possibly another weeks worth of shadow and I will be quite happy. maybe a blade two next time!!! Thanks guys for all the necouragement on your posts, I have never posted beofre but read all the previous posts thinking if they can do it, why can't I. Thin crappy hair - Unattractive- no hair styles suit it and anything you do with it, it just looks like a mess. Get those clippers out and shave it lads and you are free!!!!!

Feels good to not walk around wondering what people think of your goofy attempts to conceal balding eh? I had the same issues you did "the new way".... No more though. It really is great!
