I posted this in the main forum, but I feel it's important enough to be shared here too. Hopefully, though, guys that are here--and likely are into health and fitness--take enough pride in their appearance to not need advice like this. Nonetheless, a recap of a day that left me incontinent with disbelief:
I just got back from a law school convention in Nashville, and holy Christ, I have never seen so many mis-managed balding heads in my life.
Most of the lawyers there were bald on the top of their heads, or at least at the crown, yet they let the hair on the sides of their heads go unchecked, sometimes down to the nape of the neck, exaggerating the contrast between the hair and hairless parts of their heads.
Several others that were balding in the front gelled their hair back a la James Dean anyway, exposing giant "horns" of hairless head above each temple.
Then there were those that were bald and/or balding, kept a cut that didn't accenuate their bereft areas, but also kept a big bushy beard. Fellas, when you have more hair on your face than your head, you look F**KING RIDICULOUS. Don't these people own mirrors?
And don't even get me started on comb-overs.
Rogaine? Propecia? I prefer an alternative method that is just as effective: every month, flush $60 down the toilet while praying that your hair will grow back.
None of the touted "miracle treatments" work, and comb-overs and other hairstyles designed to disguise baldness simply make you look stupid--and insecure. The only solution that works? Shave your God damn head and pump iron. Seriously. Prove to the world that you don't need hair to be confident, and that you're not afraid to embrace your baldness.
Women get damp over a sexy well-built bald man. How do I know this? Because I am one. I shaved my head two weeks ago and have since gotten more looks and compliments than in the preceding two years.
Losing your hair? No problem--lose it all.
Sorry if I ranted and vented on this post, but after staring in disbelief for six hours at a large assortment of immature chumps, I had to let off some steam.
