Starting losing my hair in my early 20’s. Receded slowly over time. When I started TRT at 50 my hair started to wave . . . wave goodbye much much faster. I bought myself a pair of clippers soon after that and I am at a #2 now with some but not much hair on top. I am a blond so that helps in my opinion.
When the worst of the hair loss set in it kinda disturbed me, being the vain glorious bastard that I am, but I am cool with it now. And I don’t see myself shaving my head, I don’t think it is the right shape, plus I have big ears so unless my self confidence really improves I will, with what little hair I have left, just get shorter.
Saw a guy the other day with long hair. I commented on what beautiful hair he had and my wife said the same thing. It was long, thick, chocolate brown and wavy, the of hair any woman would die for. I hope the SOB goes bald by the time he is thirty

It’s funny how most of us don’t appreciate the hair we had when we had it. I did but not to the full degree I could have (very thick, very blond hair, the kind people used to always comment on) but it would have made me more vain then I already was.
Now it is the scars from numerous surgeries for melanoma, the result of too much sun bathing (there is that word again , vanity) and no hat when my hair started thinning, and not using sun screen which are both a necessity now.
So you younger studs, don’t be stupid like me, cover up and use sunscreen and wear a hat. Trust me, you will thank me later if I live long enough.
Enough preaching.
