    Biggest issue I'm dealing with the the graying temples. JUST FOR MEN? Hmmmmm.

    Lucky for me I have good genes and have no hair loss going on. But several of my buds do and a few are so self conscious they either always wear hats or are looking to spend big money on a transplant?

    So any of you "follicly challenged" guys out there feeling the same?

    If I were losing my hair, I would just shave my head.

    My husband has been thinning for quite some time (he'll tell you it's migrating off his head and onto his back!) He's always kept it short but just recently decided he'd had enough and shaved it. I wasn't sure what I thought of it at first but chalked it up to the fact that his head had very little color compared to the rest of him. Now that he's gotten a little sun on it I like it a whole lot better! And he's pretty happy with how it looks and feels and really, that's all that matters to me. :)

    Nope, and I feel sorry for people who think they are lucky to have no hair loss.

    Going bald and grey, and don't care at all. I just cut my hair shorter than I used to.

    Yeah I'm not too fond of it, but what can I do? Look like a douche by doing a comb over? Ill jsut cut it short and shave it all before I get that wraparound look :)

    I can grow a full head of (graying) hair, but I shave it clean anyway...Love the cueball look!

    My hairline certainly isn't my best feature, but Im not self conscious about it. I keep it cut pretty short and have thought about shaving it clean, just not sure I could pull it off.

    Me thinks you could pull it off fine ! :smile:

    I don't care that much. Although sometimes I wish I could have some hair style other than closely cropped or bald.

    I grew my hair out so I could wrap it around my head like a turban in case it starts thinning too much. If I'm going to have a comb over, it's going to be an EPIC comb over. .

    Nope! I was losing hair since I was in high school. About 10 years ago, I just went for it and began shaving my head and never looked back. In my opinion, hair is overrated.

    I don't think I'll have to worry about it, but if I did I'd just shave my head. I already keep it buzzed so I don't think it would be an issue, plus chicks dig it right?

    Getting pretty thin. About a year ago I changed to a very short caesar style cut which helps a bit. I'm not overly worried about it, though.

    The gray bothers me a little more - especially in the beard.

    Keep it short, real short - Solar panel not so noticeable.

    If it's receding, cutting it short/buzzing is alway more attractive to me than a clean shave.

    It's been getting a little more noticeable lately. May have to get some of that spray stuff to fill in the spots.

    From a women's point of view, mine at least, bald is sooo sexy. Add a goatee to that and OH MY... :wink:

    No point in fighting it. It used to bother me a lot. But eventually you just gotta accept who you are. The only other "options" aren't really options. Hair pieces, transplants, stinky creams that don't work... forget it.

    I just throw a fresh coat of wax on my dome and greatly appreciate the gals who like the look. Y'all are the best!

    I have been shaving my head since I was in high school and when I tried to grow it out one time I noticed that I have a pretty bad receding hair line. I was self conscious at first but got over it since I shave my head anyway.
