Hey guys hows it going? Well it's been an interesting and long road getting here but Im happy I went through with it.. I had a horrible receding hairline, I mean bad. I started balding and thinning around age 15, by 18/19 it was getting very hard to hide so the past year ive been freaking out about what to do (im 20 now, i think it happened to me so young because i havent ate meat since i was like 6, so for a long time i was protein-deprived). i was going to get a hair transplant, i was looking around on some message boards for them and somehow stumbled across this site. thank god i did, instead of butchering my head and paying thousands upon thousands for something that doesnt even look natural i decided to shave it off after a few days of reading here. never felt so relieved, so much i can do now that i havent been able to in a long time, like go to the beach, get a convertible, etc etc. sorry about the length there, but just wanted to say thanks to all of you!

el2ik,
Dude, you don't eat red meat? Are you a VEGAN?
You actually think that you were losing your hair cause of that??
U need other protein sources to stay SLY and healthy, bro.

I don't eat any meat at all, fish included. I do eat dairy products though. Yeah I think it was a big part of my hair loss, cuz from up until 15/16 i got little to no protein just because I was young and didnt know any better. Now I drink protein shakes and whatnot to get protein
Thanks everyone for the kind words, this is probably the most supportive online community ive ever seen and ill definately stick around

It's like hearing someone let out a giant sigh of relief. Yet another person has been spared the agony of hair loss depression. Dude you look great, and I'm happy for you. Now get on with the rest of your life. Post often. How has the reaction been from family/friends?

Welcome, el2ik -- what a great, positive story. You've taken the hand you were dealt (MPB) and chose to make that hand a winner. You look great, hair worries are gone, and it didn't cost loads of money or years of time to find the solution. Welcome aboard.

I know this maybe late but Welcome bro....glad you foudn this site too before you spent tons of money on stuff that doesnt work. Being sly could be the most least expensive thing you can do ..and it is fool proof. You place blade on head..hair comes off...100% of the time. Place rogain on head...wait 3 months...1 sprout!....and 100 bucks later. Good choice...pic looks good...
