no, the idea is for sbr to pick my next hair, even if i should go bald.

Might even post a vid of it with the hairdresser

Lost 40 in last year and upped to playing 3 times a week instead of 1 or 2 with tennis.

Not sure if i can do a rematch in minn though, maybe if we had a midwest bash

Well, seemed pretty clear that most votes were for shaving it bald. If you want numbers do a poll

This , as I’ve been doing for 5 years

agreed

i was thinning on top for years, would try thickening creams and waxes to add volume and try to do a messy look. you would always see scalp and if the wind blew it looked like i had a horrible toupee on. felt so self conscious.

finally buzzed it now in quarantine and best thing i did. feel so free. wish i did it sooner. i am still playing around with clips. did a 3 each week and now did a 2. might attempt a 1 this week. i like the look and i am who i am.

I remember this on TV a lot. "You need Avacor". LOL. Lots of money in that hair regrowth business. I should make a room into a chem lab and come up with something to sell. Just need some tv adds and publicity, fake before and after videos....and millionaire here I am.

you are right.

between the volume creams and waxes and even special mousse i tried, spent close to probably $300 easily the last 2 years. all they did was take my thinning hair and make it stand up. did not add volume at all. nor should i have really expected them too.

I think if someone could create a pill (pill/tablet) only that would return hair without all the rest of the bs it would make multi-millions. All this bosley and rogaine crap. Rogaine made way too much money and I had many friends use it and it barely did anything.

You're 100% right. That's the magic bullet the scientists have been trying to discover for ages, and they haven't been able to

I've researched it since I'm in my 30s now and starting to experience some hair loss, wanted to be proactive about it since I like having hair. Rogaine is the topical go-to, propecia is the pill go-to, but both are more about keeping as much of your hair as you can, not so much about filling it back in after you've lost it. Regrowth of hair can happen but for most guys it's pretty minimal. Of course the examples they show in the ads are guys who defied the odds and had pretty significant regrowth; even then, it's pretty much all at the crown of the head, not much beyond that

There's currently no highly effective or consistent way to actually regrow your own hair. If you see a celebrity who seems to suddenly have reversed their hair thinning (plenty of examples: Tom Brady, Steve Carell, Joel McHale, Jeremy Piven, Daniel Negreanu, etc), it's always a hair transplant or plugs, not some magical treatment regimen that made it grow back

As absurd as it gets
