Feng Shui for Follicles

This article appeared on MSN this morning about 8am. I read it and was quite pissed!

Why you ask? (well I heard you mentally ask even though you didn't say it out loud)

I am pissed becuase she didn't offer shaving your head as an option! She didn't mention that loosing your hair is OK and you don't have to try to hide it. Instead she gives TIPS FOR HIDING IT!

She offers a bunch of pills and crap for your head, but never to be a proud bald man!

I sent little miss Amy Levin-Epstein an e-mail expressing my digust with her that she is just adding to the problem that men face when they start loosing their hair.

I also posted on the MSN board about 5 times but only one of them stuck on page 3.

Way to go after them Noner!  I also posted, but I'm down on page 9.  I did like that most of the people reading the article said to just shave it off!
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

I find it interesting that she tells men ways to conceal the fact their appearance is changing, yet she refuses to hide her name appearance and remained hyphenated (Levin-Epstein). Whadda biotch!

What do you expect from someone that writes for MSNBC? The same network that has Chris Matthews and Keith Olberman?  :D

ps - I did see the message board for that article and I had a hard time finding replies that support this ditzy broad's position. The overwhelming support was for going sly or (at a minimum) not trying to cover it up.

pps - I had a bowl of feng shui last night over lo mein noodles.  )-m

You know...the bald alternative that is really starting to catch on is probably scaring the sh$% out of the hair restoration & toupe industry.  They could well be behind getting these people to avoid / thwart the SLY alternative.
