Well, I made my 'exit' from the Hairlosstalk forums official, with a post that might anger their admin and mods, but I had to say it.
If you happen to read it, trust me, I won't bring that sort of attitude here, as I did there in my Hairlosstalk Farewell Address :*)) . I'm a really nice person. But some of those guys over there need a wake up call. And a headblade :)
I want to thank my brother for 'saving' me from that cesspool of insecurity. But I'll leave it up to him to try to 'convert' more of those people to come over here to the good side.
I wonder, how many people here have made the transition from a regular at a hair loss forum to SBG?
-
Seriously though, consider yourself one lucky guy....your brother saved you from too many precious lost years...
you're too young not to have confidence...you're going to surprise yourself, how much much more you will gain once you go slick and truly SLY....
Just wait..... my soon to be balded brutha!
-
We're just glad that your brother helped you to "see the light" or SLY.
WOOHOO!!!

Wow man, that was a serious post! Though, after reading that whole thread and many topics on that forum I can understand your frustration.

So yeah, please don't think of me as a wild maniac as that post may portray me as. That was 8-9 months of emotional frustration put into paragraph form, not my real personality (I'm actually a quiet, introverted guy). I just don't want others to fall into the same trap.
I'm glad I'm not running for any political office, ha!

Don't worry bro, you're very cool in my book!

if anyone ever has ANY doubts about their decision to shave their head....just browse the hairlosstalk forum for a few minutes and you'll KNOW you did the RIGHT thing.....i found that forum a couple nights ago and have been reading the posts there...omg..what a bunch of whiny kids ..theres quite a few posts on there about guys talking about suicide because they are losing their hair.......it was traumatic for me also when i started losing mine but never did i think of suicide or used drugs to fight nature.......they can run from it and try to grow back a couple hairs with all those drugs but the day they stop using it...nature will catch right back up with them....i'm amazed that these guys are content to use these drugs that make them lose their libido and the possibility of making them sterile...all for a few hairs... :/O

It is traumatic when you first realize the hair is starting to go. But I don't understand why people delude themselves into thinking they can stop it from happening.
It's not the bald head that makes people look bad -- it's what they do with the remaining hair (leaving it too long on the fringe or combing it over) that makes people look bad. Luckily, more people are starting to "get it" these days, but I suppose there will always be a segment of the population that never gets it.

exactly if their was a permanant solution to baldness ..do you think donald trump would be sporting a combover? or thousands of filthy rich BALD millionares? no way those guys would be sporting thick heads of hair if it was possible.

Well HC I gotta tell you that you look great with a sly pate!
Dude, what are you going to do with all the babes that'll be following you around? :*))

:) Welcome, Cowboy. You are to be congratulated, not only for looking good sly but also for abandoning--even if with rancor--the hopeless mentality of the hairlosstalk forum. As others have observed, hair loss can be traumatic but it is not of the same magnitude as battling cancer or having to bury one's child. There is something fundamentally wrong with a culture that produces guys who actually contemplate suicide because Mother Nature is doing her usual thing. Perhaps one reason for this monomania about going bald is that American boys know their granddads, and even fathers, less well than they used to. My surrogate father, a retired bishop, is as bald as a bean, but his smile and lively eyes make him the handsomest role model in the world to me. My wife feels the same way, and if he ever sported a rug (which he wouldn't!) we'd pull it off. Glad you spared yourself years of misery. All best, Professor Melon

Don't count on it, blondie ;)

Obviously, the only solution here is for us to ram our bald heads together like fighting bucks.

Aww, man ...don't hurt those perfect bald domes..
pistols at dawn would work much better!

Dude those guys are crazy over there :/O I don't know if I should msack them in the head or or pitty them. I mean I just read a bit and people talking about what zones of their heads are balding chemicals surgery I mean WTF. It is allmost like none of them have ever considered taking what nature and genetics gave them and washing it down the drain with a new blade and some head lotion.
All I can say is that that board of there is filled with so much misery and fear it made me sick.
Thank God for all of you guys here at SBG. O0

I, once, wasted a few minutes of my life perusing just such a forum.
The whining about hair loss is incredible. I have met blind, deaf and disabled people who are not anything like that bunch.
What a waste of your life it is to worry about thinning hair. I've been shaved for almost three years (July 7). My wife was hesitant at first but it took all of two hours for her to love the chrome dome look.
Good health, your senses, a decent job...these things are important. Hair is nothing but a hindrance.
-
Hair is nothing but a hindrance.
Well, said! Very true too!
Your avatar shows how classic a completely bald head can look in a suit...very nice!
Glad your wife is aboard...really why shouldn't she be?
Take care, my bald brutha! 8)

Ill tell anyone on this board who is naturally bald or balding to go and look at that board if your considering getting hair implants, wigs, relying on medication, etc.
I think Ive given up with the guys on HLT, they are so stuck in the same mindset, then when you question them they have the backing of 100+ other twisted souls. Blondeguy keeps on going but I think even he must be close to giving up. They told him they shouldnt have to accept it and seem to class it on the same level as amputations and cancer.
I thought I was bad about a year/ half year agov :*))
-
Hey hellocowboy, in my opinion you did the right thing. You're ok in my book. Then again my book is sort of crazy and twisted. :/O :D Just joking. But really, I checked out that forum and all I can say is...Well, actually my momma taught me that if you didn't have anything nice to say then just don't say nothing at all. So I'll just keep my mouth shut...And I mean real tight too. :-X ???
-
You've got a good skull my friend.
You made a fine looking Sly guy.
Welcome to the dark side!

One thing that I found "amusing" is that they will blur out their faces in pics. It's hair! Get over it! People say goodbye to their hair all the time and have no issues.
OK, thanks, I feel better now.

Man, finally checked those dudes out. Nice to know there is a site I can visit when I am in an unbelieveably good mood and I want to crash into the depths of depression. That place is definitely the Ying to our Yang.

Definitely some troubled individuals over there. Coming here is a complete 180.

Definately, Im glad you advertised this site over there otherwhise I would never had found it. It has helped me alot as I had pretty much accepted the baldness as an inevitability but was struggling with myself on what to do, Hair implants, wigs, dosing myself on pills, potions, oils, etc. But this site really has brought the right path to light - Slyness. Even though I havent done it yet, it will happen, I just want to keep my hair for abit longer as Ill never have it again when I start going sly.

Like so many of us here, once you do it, you'll kick yourself for not doing it sooner!! Post a pic once you make the move.
Good luck
