What made me go bald?A drunken bet. My buddies and I were bet by our gf's that we wouldn't shave our heads, the stakes, 10 minutes,for each of us that did it, of them stripping and lap dancing us or whoever didn't shave had to streak around the block while the others got their dances. Needless to say four heads got shaved that night, me and my cousin never looked back and have been sly going on 8 years.
Perhaps it is a "ritual" that most men with MPB go through regarding their receeding hairlines. Trying to search for answers, denial, and looking for the "cure" plus several other emotions, etc. I went through this many many years ago.Personally, I think that the scum who profess to be able to cure mpb and sell horse potion cures should be given hard time or shot. They prey upon vulnerable people and make millions off their hopes and suffering. And if a chic just likes you for your hair, then she ain't worth jack or judy s**t. I said it before. If there was something on the market that "cured" mpb or grew hair, it would be worth billions and all over the news. Don't waste your time, heartache or money on these psuedo cures.Once ya accept it, shave the noggin and spend yer bucks on the chics who love sly guys.
Quote hate to break it to you, but if you have a receding hairline, you have MPB. Whether or not it progresses to a completely bald top surrounded by a horsehoe is anyone's guess. But recession at the hairline is how it usually starts.Not necessarily. A receding hair line is not male pattern baldness. It is simply a receding hairline. MPB is exactley that a pattern that starts at that the crown of the head and can also recede. You get the gene for baldness from your mother's father, so if your grandfather on your mother's side was bald there is a very good chance you will be bald. I have the exact hairline as my grandfather. He was receded but never did get MPB. Also I'm 45 and usually by that age you may thin a bit, bt as you grow older, but you would know if you started getting MPB by then. I used to be a barber and in barber college, we went over all the different types of MPB. The ironic part is I could care less if I did go bald, but what I have at this point is probably what I will die with.

I get it from my dad's side of the family. MPB can come from either side of the family. A receding hairline is a type of MPB, its the same chemical DHT that causes the hair loss.
