This subforum is called "advantages and disadvantages to being bald", and so I think that on here people should take a balanced view and make hair loss sufferers aware of the advantages and disadvantages of the various options that are available. I'd have to say that I personally find it hard to understand the mentality on this website. Sure, shaving your head bald due to hair loss is better than sporting a grown out horseshoe, but better still is if you'd never lost your hair to begin with. In my opinion, virtually everyone looks better with a head of hair than without. I think that if a guy has half a chance of holding on to his head of hair by using a proven treatment that's available, it would be a pity for him not to if I'm going to be honest.
