Plus, you hardly ever see bald Korean men. Koreans can't be that much less prone to baldness than other cultures.


Maybe not many fully bald men but every day I see a hell of a lot of comb overs. Also I see a lot of older women with thinning hair.

Nothing wrong with a bald man. Some of the best looking men have been bald...Yul Brynner, anyone? Yummy!

Don't worry about it, guys....any woman who criticizes you/ ditches you because of something so superficial, and more importantly, something over which you have absolutely no control is not worth bothering over.

Another option to shaving your balding noggin is to dye your hair a light platinum blond color. Thinning hair looks much better in a lighter color instead of a darker one.

Hair does not make a man. Of course some women like a head of hair�a guy just needs to find a woman who could care less about hair and just look at his heart. Most of the hair pieces look terrible! Unless a guy has a medical reason for wearing a hair piece, do without! But I think that most hair piece wearers are vain and insecure about their hair loss.

Well yeah you should look at the heart and blah blah blah...

The reality is, is that most girls don't find bald guys attractive. They would sooner have hair. It's just the way they are hard-wired.

Men like big boobs, women like hair.

Men like skinny girls, women like hair.

It sucks, but that's how it is.

I am balding too, by the way.

Woody H and Bill M in KingPin... are you serious??? Legendary comb overs that prove through wind rain and snow, that style is timeless.

Bald is beautiful, I never considered a piece, come over or rogaine. Once I started losing it, I started shaving it all. F*** you genetics, I will make myself bald by choice, I dont have to look like George Kastanza!


Funny enough. I started this thread after watching the Seinfeld episode wherein George Kastanza gets a piece. He feels great, Kramer thinks he looks fantastic (of course) but Elaine and Jerry think he looks retarded. Confused

My dad had a full head of hair until the day he died and I think I will too, so the question for guys like me would be would we ever color our gray hair. For me the answer would be no, at least on my head. However, I am already getting gray on my beard which bugs the hell out of me, and I have thought about using some Just For Men on that.

As for losing one's hair, Bald seems to be cool these days anyway.


Baldness is carried by the female genes, look at your grandpa and on your mom's side, if he isn't bald then you should have nothing to worry about. If he is, then start checking the old hair brush.

I remember that episode and thought George actually looked ok with it.

You meet someone and, if the first time you're intimate she takes off a wig to reveal her real hair, no guy really cares.


What? Where are you getting your data on this?

Style and fashion are very much based in historical/cultural contexts.300-400 years ago,all aristocratic men wore heavy,white wigs,corsets,high heels and lead make-up.Think Mozart for example.

These days,we look back at that part of history and smile.Who knows what the future will bring? Maybe that look will be in vogue again in 200 years.

I started losing my hair at 24 and now at 35,am completely bald on top.I shave my head down to the skull every few days and am happy with myself and my life.I have good friends,a good family and a good life.We shouldn't let hair or our appearance define us completely.

Would I like to have my thick head of hair back again???? Dam right!!!! Very Happy However,it will never happen, so I have accepted this,and moved on to think about more important things in my life.

Rugs,drugs,and plugs?????........Just say no!! Cool

I don't anticipate ever losing my hair, but it's nice to know that it isn't the end of the world, just the end of sex appeal.

Hell, if Agassi's worn one,

(love the 'wig out' bit)

I've got lots of body hair, but little head hair. Am I still man enough?
