:)Welcome Barcafan: Welcome to the crew!. Yes, shave it all off, but DON'T use a Bic. Get something that won't abrade your scalp, e.g. Mach III Turbo, Schick Extreme, or Headblade, especially if you're coming off a # 2 or #1 buzz cut. A good shaving gel--Aveeno Therapeutic, Neutragena--also helps reduce razor burn and nicks. Goodspeed, Merry belated Christmas, Professor Melon

As you know PigPen, it's cheaper to keep her.
I started balding in high school. In college, a couple of dorks called me the "Missing Link". Pro Wrestling was big back then, and there was a character that had bushy hair, but shaved off some towards the front of his dome except for a patch. Odd look, but I had somewhat of a patch up front also (like a small island of hair).
I was holding strong for a few years, but two kids later, the hair loss shifted into overdrive. For the longest time, I've been telling people I look great from the neck down (used to run half-marathons, played ice hockey, etc etc). But since I shaved it, people have said I look so much younger (turned 40 in May '06).

Way to hang tough. However, next time she comes home with a drastic haircut/change(long to short, new highlights, new color, whatever) you can pull out the go back to the old look or i'm moving on card.

Seriously I understand her liking hair more, but love is not skin deep, or at least it shouldn't be.

Hey Mateys --
I am indeed a casualty of MPB.
Dig this. Since being married, Nancy and I have never had apartments/homes with mirror configurations where I could readily see the back of my noggin. Nor was I ever particularly interested.
My only opportunity was at the barber where they give you the mirror to see that the back is how you wanted it.
Well, I never noticed...until the other day--checking the back of the noggin after shaving it...and then rubbing it incessantly as the stubble comes back
Got an
already-tan spot about 4 to 6 inches in diameter back there....and not much stubble.
No one ever told me

Started balding in my late teens ... it's just been disappearing ever since, only back and sides left.

I am 28 now and still have full hair but I always liked the bald looked and treid it a couple of times.
I don't think that there is anything bad about balding ... in fact I wish I would loose my hair ... because that would make the decision about shaving the head again much easier.

I guess that I'm one of the lucky ones, If I choose to grow my hair back, it would be thick long and dark brown. I never did start losing my hair. Unlike my older brother who has been loosing his for a long time, since he was in high school. I keep trying to convince him to go the way of the Sly, but he won't. Every year for christmas I give him a joke gift like a fake gift certificate to the House Of Masters, or Rogain, this year I gave him a complete set of HeadBlade products. Any other Ideas???

I first noticed the receding temples sometime in '98 (I was 26) So I guess I would say age 26....The crown started thinning out about eight years later. I remember the flattops I had in high school and it seemed that the top center was a little thinner than the rest of the flattop. Found one of my early baby pictures when I was about six months old and found that the hair at my crown and temples wasn't growing like the rest of my hair was....who knew that a baby picture would end up being a self-fulfilling prophecy!

I started receding at 17, but then rapidly thinned and started losing at about 19/20. I think the fact that it happened now made me create positive changes in my life.
