When You Get Older, Losing Your Hair...

Will you shave or save?

I'm shaving, no doubt. Did it once before for fun, and can certainly do it again for necessity. No comb-overs, no sun roofs, no popped hoods, no unkept lawn. All or nothing.

Of course, I might be too damn lazy to bother, and just let myself turn into Gavin McCloud. Oink.

It's CLEARLY about shaving. I spent most of college bald and it was fantastic. It's hard to have worries about how your hair looks when you don't have any...

If it hits, off it all goes. Long hair + balding = YECH! Thankfully I'm still okay for now.

No chance of me going bald. It grows thick n' fast.

But! If I ever were bald I would go for the wig option DEFFO. Bring back the wig, that's what I say. Wigs: Classic! Sadly baldy men are too SCARED to go for the rug these days so everyone else has to look at their offensive bald pate. Ugh!

No no, wear the wig and never, never, never admit it to anyone. In fact, act as if you ARE NOT wearing a wig. That's the MANS way.

I won't go bald, my hair's too thick, which is actually a bit crap cos I can't do anything with it, apart from having a big floppy fringe.

Shave. No-one ever looks good with a comb-over.

Men wear such weedy wigs these days. In my youth, when Queen Anne was not even dead, pretty fan notwithstanding, wig were something else. A wig is not a wig unless it stands a foot clear of the top of your head.

I'd have to go wig. Head is too small. Could never be an egg-head. So wig it'll be. Hopefully in a very very long time. That's a good take on the Who: "Hope I die before I get bald". Like, "My Generation - 40 years later".

I started going bald when I was like 24. Nuthin much you can do except keep what's left cut short, & always wear hats.

Balding men can still look really sexy, IMO. Wild and kooky shocks of thick hair are ok too tho...

Sigh. Poor Paul, this is already happening to him because Strange Fruit makes him pull his hair out. I say, go for Rogaine, and if that doesn't work, get yerself a wig. (We are already experimenting with wigfun) There is nothing uglier in this world than a combover. You are fooling no one. Get a wig. I love wigs, I think they're great.

two years pass...

I'm not shaving no way. Despite the pessures of genetics, I'm just not a Mr. Clean type. Fuck all y'all: I'm just going be one of those weirdos who just wear hats all the time.

I want to try a combover at least once. Even if I'm not losing my hair.

Mine started thinning when I was about 21. I never went cueball, but I tend to get it cut pretty short, and I think it looks fine. Only problem is I am often too lazy to get a haircut...
