I'm New Here
« on: January 22, 2007, 11:31:29 PM »
Hi I'm Don and new to this site. I'm not to the extreme yet.I have very thin hair on top and pretty good hair on the sides and I keep it cut short so I don't look as balding. I even wear a hairpiece for special occasions and have gotten very flattering comments on it. I can't give up hair altogether. I will be 50 in a few weeks and what really hurts is when I see men in their 70s with more hair than me. The good thing is that everyone tells me that with or without the hairpiece I look good either way.

Hi Don

Why does it hurt?  Balding is a naturally occurring process.  Accept and embrace the fact that you're bald and toss the rug! D#tG3t 
You'll be a much happier person not covering it up, especially since you only cover it for special occasions...

Hair sucks as far as i'm concerned.     I mean, getting up and having to brush it, or use hairspray/styling gel to keep it in place.    Having to go and get it cut for 15-20 bucks only to repeat the process once a month maybe more.   

It doesn't look better than being bald either.    Being bald makes your eyes dominant and you naturally smile easier.   

But you have to be comfortable with whatever decision you make.    If you are going to hate being bald, then keep the hairpiece. 

But if you think others really care whether you have hair or not, they really don't.    And so what if they do.   You should live your life for yourself anyway, not for other people.
