Alright suckas...I'm rockin my new hairpiece and LOVIN' it!

[Wyldfire]

no need to get pissy, we just find it little funny......the image we have going through our head is the HOLYWOOD TYPE SCENE, where a short fat man is standing on the street with one side of his piece flopping around in the wind.....
Thanx for clearing things up

Now, I don't find it "funny". I understand why he is doing this. I am simply trying to explain to him that he is not going to gain anything from doing it. It's just going to cost him the money he's spending on it. I just think that in the end he'd be much, much happier using the money differently.

 

[Wyldfire]

Because it's okay for HER or any other woman to spend thousands of dollars on breast implants, makeup, facelifts, and whatnot, but god forbid a man try to improve his appearance with....OMG....a TOUPEE!

I have natural 34 DD breasts...which are actually a pain in the ass. Finding bras that fit properly is almost impossible. Finding shirts that my boobs fit into without sleeves to my knees (I'm only 5 feet tall) is difficult too. I really wish my boobs were SMALLER and if I could get them reduced for free I would do it in a heartbeat. But no way in hell am I going to pay that much for cosmetic surgery. I don't spend a lot of money on make up, either. I found very inexpensive stuff that suits me fine and looks good. I wouldn't ever waste money on facelifts or any of that stuff. I'm not holding men to a different standard than I do women. I think it's stupid for ANYONE to waste money on something that isn't necessary...myself included.

Seriously, Wyld is just a victim of the limitations of her own mind. I'm glad that there are some other women like you out there who see it for what it is and not what's swilring around in the back of their head from watching too many Seinfeld episodes.

I don't watch Seinfeld or any TV to speak of. Mostly the History Channel, Discovery Channel, The Learning Channel, Animal Planet, Court TV forensic stuff and I watch American Idol and Prison Break and Law and Order with the kiddos. No soap operas, talk shows, never even seen a single episode of that Desperate Housewives show either. I'm just frugal and don't believe in waste.

 

[Wyldfire]

And that's precisely why a hairpiece gets such a bad rap.

If the general public knew what it was really about they wouldn't be so judgemental like Wyldfire.

I'm not judgemental about the damn hairpiece...I'm saying you don't need to spend money on it and that it won't change the outcome of your life one way or another.

 

[Wyldfire]

I would be willing to bet a lot of money that if transplants were not an option (they aren't for me) you would be DESPERATELY seeking a solution and would be a little more open to gluing or taping something to your head. Hairloss would DEVASTATE you. I don't buy it for one minute.

No, I wouldn't ever wear a wig. I'd do what my Mom did when she had cancer and chemo wiped out all of her hair. I'd cover my shiny bald head with a bandana or hat and spend the money I could have spent on a wig taking my kiddos to Disney World.

I wasn't talking to you, nor was i referencing to something you said, i just described the image i'm seeing.

Okies...it really did sound like you were including me in the "we" statement, which is why I clarified my position. No biggie...

 

[Bad_Lil'Pixie]

Nowhere did I judge him...I'm telling him it's unnecessary and he is wasting money on something he does NOT need to do. I'm saying there are many more things he COULD spend that money on that WOULD enrich his life more and make for some real happy times.

I am asking WHO ARE YOU TO SAY what is a "waste of money" or what makes a person "happy". If he gets his rocks off dancing naked on the roof, I say, dance baby, dance!

This discussion isn't about how much or your husband's hard earned money you spend. This thread is about someone spending an awful lot of money on something that they (at least subconsciously) think is going to make them more successful in life. A hairpiece is not going to make any significan't difference in his life. He doesn't need the hairpiece...THAT is the point I'm making.

To set the record straight, I work full time, but my money is his, we don't do the his/hers things, it all goes to the pot, we do the retirement planning and all that grown up stuff. Then we do what makes us happy. We make our own rules and don't impose them on others. Nor do we judge others who define their own happiness different then ours.

You expressed happiness is taking the kids to Disney, good for you. We have found happiness in NOT having kids nor ever living through the hell of an over priced, over crowded theme park. To each their own, it is simple.

 

[STR8UP]

Now, I don't find it "funny". I understand why he is doing this.

No, I don't think you understand at all. I'm not patching up a hole in my life.

I'm 34 years old. I just got out of a relationship with a sexy 23 year old. I party every weekend with girls who are ten years younger. I live in a "Cribs" style pad. I drive a fast car. I have a great family and friends. I'm not your average middle management Joe bordering on middle age and coming out of a divorce looking for something to raise my social value.

I have everything I need in life and most of the things I want. I look at this the same as I would updating my wardrobe....I get tired of one thing and I move on to the next.

I am simply trying to explain to him that he is not going to gain anything from doing it. It's just going to cost him the money he's spending on it. I just think that in the end he'd be much, much happier using the money differently.

Part of your argument revolves around your assumption that this isn't something that will benefit me. How do you know this?

The second part of your argument is the "what if" factor that is virtually non-existent. If the piece didn't look like my own hair I wouldn't wear it. If a chick could potentially rip it off my head when I'm going down on her, I wouldn't wear it. No matter how many times I explain that this isn't what you think it is, you still make these things an issue???

The third part of your argument revolves around the money aspect of this.

As far as that goes, "expensive" is a relative concept, and to me $500-$700 per year is not expensive.

And who are you or anyone else to judge what something is worth to someone else? I mean, to me, paying $1,500 for a new set of golf clubs and thousands per year on greens fees and memberships and whatnot is a waste of money, but I wouldn't say that it is a waste of money for EVERYONE.

 

[STR8UP]

I think it's stupid for ANYONE to waste money on something that isn't necessary...myself included.

What is really necessary?

I would be willing to bet that no matter how humble your living situation is, you could probably make do with something less expensive. Ever go out to a nice steak dinner? Do you buy gifts for people? Do you ride a bus instead of wasting money on a car? Ever take a vacation? Couldn't you live wearing clothes from the Slavation Army?

I don't watch Seinfeld or any TV to speak of. Mostly the History Channel, Discovery Channel, The Learning Channel, Animal Planet, Court TV forensic stuff and I watch American Idol and Prison Break and Law and Order with the kiddos. No soap operas, talk shows, never even seen a single episode of that Desperate Housewives show either.

Well, you certainly formulated your knowledge of hairpieces SOMEWHERE!

I'm just frugal and don't believe in waste.

This is another subject...but if you are constantly focusing on save, save, save, you will never make much. Making is WAY more important than saving.

I like the way you think Pixie.

I'm not focused on saving, really...I just don't like to spend frivolously. So many people buy things on credit to try to have more than their neighbors or whatever. They max out several credit cards and are so deep in debt it's not even funny. It's so retarded. If I had extra money to blow on something like hairpieces I would instead donate that money to help those less fortunate than myself who could care less about what their hair looks like because they're too worried about how they are going to feed or get shoes for their kids.

It's not about being biased about hairpieces or balding men. It's just a deep dislike for what I see as being wasteful when there are so many better ways to spend money.

 

[Eulogy]

LOL @ this entire thread. Especially the OP boasting his fucking toupé. Jesus Christ.

 

[MindOverMatter]

Personally it was me (and thankfully it's not, no baldness in my family), I woud just stick with the shaved head. It's not the "rug stereotype" or the price that would keep me from getting a hairpiece, but because it's just fake. I've noticed you comparing it to fake tits, lipsuctions, etc, and it's exactly the same way. Women that alter their bodies to that extent disgust me and I wouldn't be caught dead with a silicone chick.

Personally, I'd be more comfortable being bald then wearing someone else's hair. During the summer, I go with the bald look a lot (shave every 2nd day), and it has never gotten in the way of my game. A lot of girls in the 20-29 demographic love guys with shaved heads and it's so low maintenance.

Being bald is not unattractive anymore like it was once, in fact some people look better bald then with hair. Bruce Willis is an example. Vin Diesel is another. Can you imagine Bill Goldberg with hair? etc. Rugs, no matter how great/realistic they look are like a fake rolex. They look real, feel real, but once the cover is blown (and it will get blown), you will be ridiculed either in person or behind your back and will have to defend yourself over and over again like you are now with Wyldfire. To me, it's not worth it.

 

[Wyldfire]

Mind...darn you...my plan was to give him a taste of what he's going to have to contend with and then tell him what you just told him.

All that effort for naught....you suck, lol.

 

[STR8UP]

LOL @ this entire thread. Especially the OP boasting his fucking toupé. Jesus Christ.

I don't know what an "OP" is, but I have gotten a lot of compliments on my toupee, thank you. You think I could give a sh!t what a clown like you thinks? Don't flatter yourself.

So what you are saying is that you have no reason for being against it, other than knowing it's fake? That makes a lot of sense.

BTW...the hair is not fake. It's real hair.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with cosmetically enhancing one's appearance. What's the problem? If it's something that you have the money for, and it makes you feel good, who the fukk cares? Such small minds, really...

Did it for 8 years, had no problem with women, thank you. Once again, that isn't why I did it.

Not worth it to you. Key word being "YOU".

See, there's a difference between an insecure person who is wearing hair to compensate for something he feels he is lacking in his life, and one who does it to ENHANCE his appearance and has no shame in doing so.

Do you think Ben Affleck gives two sh!ts if someone like you laughs that he is wearing a hairpiece (WHAT?? You mean you didn't know he wears a piece? Hard to judge someone when you can't actually SEE something to make fun of, huh?)? Of course not. He knows he looks good. He could fukk just about any chick he wants. He's got cash in his pocket. Life is good and if he decides to wear hair, get a facelift, butt implants, or whatever makes him happy and enhances his career, more power to him.

Is it going to phase me a bit if someone finds out and wants to laugh about it? Do you think Trump cares who laughs about his hairstyle or hairpiece or whatever it is? Of course not. He doesn't have time for judgemental idiots. He has enough status, fame, and money that he could care less. There's always another model half his age waiting to take the place of his current piece of ass. I have built enough of a life and am confident enough in myself as a person to have the exact same attitude. Take notes people.

All of you closed minded people who have no money love to sit around on the sidelines and make every excuse in the world why someone else shouldn't do this or that for whatever reason. You think it's YOU that is having the laugh....well guess what? Just like in the Ben Affleck example, I happen to be the one who is laughing. I treat it as a matter of fact thing. I don't volunteer the info to someone, but if they find out, so what? Will some people laugh at me behind my back? Maybe, but chances are those aren't the kind of people who I would associate with anyway.

I don't deal with people who don't have half a brain enough to look at things from other points of view any more than I have time for ignorant rednecks marching down the street in white hoods. Both groups of people are misguided, the only difference is that the rednecks have malicious intent, everyone else is simply too stubborn to open their eyes to the world around them. Either way I feel bad for them.

So the point is, if I were NOT wearing hair, and someone I knew were to find out that ANOTHER person were wearing an undetectable and natural looking hairpiece and make fun of them for doing so, I wouldn't be associating with that person. Anyone who is capable of this is simply insecure with something about THEMSELVES and trying to project it off on someone else.

Good luck with your wonderful attitudes people. I'm sure it will get you everything you deserve in life and then some.

 

[MindOverMatter]

Wow, personally I could care less what you do with your money. If you made this post to get a high five from everybody, then I'm afraid I'm gonna have to disappoint you. You started this conversation on a discussion forum frequented by hundreds of people with different opinions, and you are clearly upset that they do not match up with yours. If you wanted only positive opinions, you should have posted this on a bald men support group forum.

BTW...the hair is not fake. It's real hair.

Yes, it's real hair. But it's not your own hair, you don't grow it, you glue it on your shiny bald head. It's somebody else's, hence why it's fake. To me, that's equal to wearing someone else's underwear, or driving someone else's car and pretending it's yours. It's sad. And that's MY opinion, if you don't like it, too bad.

Is it going to phase me a bit if someone finds out and wants to laugh about it?

Yet here you are, on an internet forum, arguing with a female poster called Wyldfire about how your hairpiece is not a joke for 2 straight pages. If you were really comfortable with who you were and the decision you made, you would have just laughed it off. It's evident that she got under your skin with a simple comment. If a comment from a woman on an internet forum can strike a nerve with you like this, I'd hate to see what a couple of women laughing at you in real life would do.

Do you think Ben Affleck gives two sh!ts if someone like you laughs that he is wearing a hairpiece (WHAT?? You mean you didn't know he wears a piece?

Yes I knew about his hairpiece, it's old tabloid news heh.

And while Ben Affleck wont give a sh!T if people like me or some random broad laughs at his hairpiece (and I'm sure there are a few that do, at least behind his back), that's Ben Affleck. You're not Ben Affleck.

Your face is not on the big screen, strangers in other countries don't know your name, you don't have an Oscar, and you haven't slept with JLo. Ben Affleck has status to the point where he can laugh anything off. You clearly do not, since you need to defend yourself so strongly on an internet forum. And the fact you are embarassed to show your before and after photos (even with a face blurred out like someone suggested) tells me you will never have that kind of confidence in your self and your appearance.

Do you think Trump cares who laughs about his hairstyle or hairpiece or whatever it is? Of course not. He doesn't have time for judgemental idiots.

You know, it's funny. You say that your rug had nothing to do with "getting women", but here you are listing how all these people who have rugs are boning models left and right. Obviously you do care. And that's great for Trump, but personally, I'd rather attract women with my face, body and personality rather then with my account balance. If your goal in life is to find some skank who will love you no matter what you look like as long as you give her spending cash, then by all means keep gluing someone else's hair onto your shiny dome.

So the point is, if I were NOT wearing hair, and someone I knew were to find out that ANOTHER person were wearing an undetectable and natural looking hairpiece and make fun of them for doing so, I wouldn't be associating with that person. Anyone who is capable of this is simply insecure with something about THEMSELVES and trying to project it off on someone else.

First of all, I did not say one insulting word, nor did I make fun of you until you responded to me. I simply said that if I wear going bald, I personally would not wear somebody else's hair, and you flipped out and started throwing comments towards me and comparing me to everything from a redneck Klan member to a close-minded scrub lol. Since you decided to go that route, it's fair enough that I make a few comments as well. Other then that man, best of luck with your rug.

 

[STR8UP]

Wow, personally I could care less what you do with your money. If you made this post to get a high five from everybody, then I'm afraid I'm gonna have to disappoint you.

Nope. I did it to show people that there is way to do something about your hairloss today for a reasonable price that wasn't available a few years ago. If my experience helps someone else, I have accomplished my goal. Even if it's someone who DOES have low self esteem and this might give them a confidence boost to get them through life.

You started this conversation on a discussion forum frequented by hundreds of people with different opinions, and you are clearly upset that they do not match up with yours.

Wrong again.

I welcome other opinions. But at the same time if your opinion differs from mine and you can't back up what you say I'm gonna call you on it. Fact of the matter is, a couple of people here are giving an opinion on something that they THINK they know something about, but when someone says, "You will be ridiculed" or "Some chick is gonna pull it off your head while you are having sex" I know that I am dealing with people who don't know what they are talking about.

To me, that's equal to wearing someone else's underwear, or driving someone else's car and pretending it's yours. It's sad. And that's MY opinion, if you don't like it, too bad.

That's too funny! I hope one day you don't get burned in a fire and the only way to cosmetically repair your badly damaged skin is to let them graft CADAVER skin on your burns. You'll eat a cow but won't put another human's sterilized, hair on your own head. But you are entitled to your opinion.....

Yet here you are, on an internet forum, arguing with a female poster called Wyldfire about how your hairpiece is not a joke for 2 straight pages. If you were really comfortable with who you were and the decision you made, you would have just laughed it off.

It's a form of recreation. I love to debate other people's "logic" because most people have their heads uo their asses and have a hard time looking past stupid social conditioning.

It's evident that she got under your skin with a simple comment. If a comment from a woman on an internet forum can strike a nerve with you like this, I'd hate to see what a couple of women laughing at you in real life would do.

You don't have to be Ben Affleck to have the attitude that everyone else can kiss your ass if they don't like you or what you put on top of your head.

Your face is not on the big screen, strangers in other countries don't know your name, you don't have an Oscar, and you haven't slept with JLo.

I have nothing to defend myself against. I just don't appreciate small minded commentary

And the fact you are embarassed to show your before and after photos (even with a face blurred out like someone suggested) tells me you will never have that kind of confidence in your self and your appearance.

I'm not embarassed at all. I have a thing about posting pictures of myself on the internet.

You know, it's funny. You say that your rug had nothing to do with "getting women", but here you are listing how all these people who have rugs are boning models left and right. Obviously you do care.

It has nothing whatsoever to do with attracting women, I can assure you for the umpteen millionth time.

And that's great for Trump, but personally, I'd rather attract women with my face, body and personality rather then with my account balance. If your goal in life is to find some skank who will love you no matter what you look like as long as you give her spending cash, then by all means keep gluing someone else's hair onto your shiny dome.

That shows me that you feel that other people are as judgemental as you are about this.

FYI- a couple of other posters here have messaged me informing me that they too have used hairpieces. One is able to get transplants, so he is getting rid of his hairpiece, He made it a point to inform me that he has never had a negative reaction from a woman about wearing a piece. The other one buys hair from the same company I bought from, and he couldn't be happier...he loves the hair.

First of all, I did not say one insulting word, nor did I make fun of you until you responded to me. I simply said that if I wear going bald, I personally would not wear somebody else's hair, and you flipped out and started throwing comments towards me and comparing me to everything from a redneck Klan member to a close-minded scrub lol. Since you decided to go that route, it's fair enough that I make a few comments as well. Other then that man, best of luck with your rug.

You didn't attack me per se, but you made it clear that you feel it isn't proper or right or whatever for people to cosmetically alter their appearance, which is ridiculous. My comments were simply my opinion of YOUR opinions....that they are closed minded.

 

[Wyldfire]

I tend to agree that wearing someone else's hair stuck to your head is kinda like wearing a used thong or something. I hadn't even thought about it from that angle...and now that I have it's actually kinda gross.

 

[Eulogy]

I don't know what an "OP" is, but I have gotten a lot of compliments on my toupee, thank you. You think I could give a sh!t what a clown like you thinks? Don't flatter yourself.

Newsflash: you're bald, get over it, you neurotic prick.
