Wrong - shave head, grow beard, hit the gym, wear nice clothes, have confidence, be funny and you'll be covered up.

The real question is buzz it off low as the trimmer can go or Mach 3 that bad boy smooth as a baby`s arse?


You can by electric trimmers / razors that get it so close that you'd think someone used a regular razor. That's the route I'll eventually go.

I was at 3 and decided to shave it all off. I’m happy with the decision

With the combination of thinning hair on top and grey on my sides, I now give it the buzzer with no guard on top, then the sides/back get the shaving cream and razor.

It wasn't until I started this method, that I can see where I could just shave all of it at some point.

A goatee would enhance this look, but mine would be gray af.

Shave it ... then you'll find a comfort point (length) as it grows back.

Get yourself a rotary shaver to maintain.

Mine started going early, like late high school early college. Tried to hang on, went a couple of years too long. As soon as i shaved it my luck with the ladies exploded. You aren't fooling anyone, embrace it and reap the benefits

I'm at 2.86884 and holding steady.

3.5 and up and it needs to go. Or at the very least be SHORT.

yea its not a sign of low test, its a sign of high 5 alpha reductase meaning high testosterone to dht conversion.


as far as the OP...shave it, get jacked and tanned equals winning.

Shave it into a skullet.
I’ve had one for 20 years now. And although I’m not yet tired of the daily slaying and panties thrown at me(with a few unwelcome dick pics in the mix) I’m not as young as I use to be and pull a muscle here and there that keeps me dry for a couple days a month

Start cutting it shorter

Later this year, you will almost be shaved anyway and just go ahead and shave it. No one will care of think it’s drastic cause it’s been short for a while

I’m at a 4 on that scale. I don’t have the time or patience to clean shave it every couple days. I just trim it back down to about an inch once a month.

To put into context how little time I put into hair removal, I haven’t clean shaved my face in over a decade.

At what age do people start going bald? I'm between 1 and 2, and I'm 36 years old. I know my brother was between 3 and 4 when he was in his late 20's. I'm just wondering if I'm out of the woods, or if I still might lose my hair

Not bad.. just saw that the US has started air strikes on Syria and Iraq, which on the map theyre showing is thisclose to Turkey.. not sure if that will make the entire area more dangerous or not .


In any case, ive consulted with a clinic in Thailand where ill be getting mine done next year.. im mid-40s and still have most of my hair.. but i can tell it’s thinning in certain spots and i want to nip it in the bud.. will be a little over $3,000 for the procedure, not including airfare and hotel, so will prob wind up being around the same amount you spent , all in .

If ur 36, then i shouldnt have to explain to you that everyone is different…. “People start going bald” at various times.. i had a buddy who started noticeably balding in college.. im mid-40s and thinning, most people cant tell, but i can.. some people never go bald, see ‘Reagan, Ronald’.. or ‘Clinton, Bill’…. Or my own grandfather, who in his 70s had a thick head of luscious locks…. There’s no way to answer your question .
