I am still deeply in denial regarding my alledged hair loss.

Sigh

Well I guess the clippers is a good way to go.

Now all I need is a red Star Trek commanders uniform and develop Territs Syndrome so I can randomly yell things like "Engage, Maximum Warp" and such :-)

I just miss my bangs

Hmm, more philosophy in the hair dept. "Pick the battles you can win..."

I can do nothing about genetics that won't cost me an obscene amount of money for a vain purpose...however, excercising is cheap, makes you feel great(hair or not) and you got to "work for it" so it feels like an accomplishment.

The only up thing about hair is...EVERYONE loses it sooner or later.

Once, while rididng the BART, I looked down and to my amazement so the oddest thing...

An older asian gentleman wearing a hairpiece. The odd thing was that the piece was old and the fake hair had fallen out, leaving a large canvas looking baldspot and the stainless steal studs exposed.

How do you look at this thing in the morning and decide it is better looking than your actual skull?

Yup, good point

Ah well, even if I'm still loosing hair, I have lost over 50 pounds in a year

I was a porky 233 pounder last June, and since the incredible workout at UPS, Slim Fast and all out watching what I eat, I'm down to 175 now

The gut aint a 6-pack yet, but the party ball is certainly gone!

vector checking in.

I use to use peaked cap (sp?) to cover my thinning hair at top of the head, but then I thought what the heck! Say no to hats! Say "Bald and the beautiful", Ridge is our enemy number one! Shave him!!

One of the wisdoms of these boards by Ripsnort:
"More I loose hair, more I get head"
Amen!

I've been losing hair for about 5 years now. I've had a clipper cut for the last 12 years, so didn't even take notice until recently. Hard to get excited about hair in the Army. Only so many different ways you can wear an inch of hair

Only thing that pisses me off is sometimes the top of my head gets sunburnt

Sunburns pretty much suck.

For me, the worst thing is kitchen sinks. I can't climb under a sink and fix a pipe without coming out bleeding like a stuck pig.

Vector (Rip hugs him) Glad someone remembered one of my old quips!

Now that I've been married almost 12 years, unfortunately its not playing out like I imagined...

43, and showing no signs of baldness, In fact i'm starting to grow more hair in places I never imagined you could.

If I ever go bald I'll shave the rest off and get flames tattooed on my head.

Ah, you see I have an "irish hairline" and when my friends say that I am blading I scream at them "SHUT UP!" and hit them with something.
