    comb overs are like saying

    "yeah, its kinda like a wig, but its my own hair, so its ok"

    uh, no


    Comb overs SUCK! I also think they are the WORST. They don't ALWAYS look that ridiculous. But the idea/concept of it...if someone spots you with that, you BETTER be 60 years old, at least.

        Best thing to do is make what you have as neat as possible and leave it at that. Don't bother with anything that needs daily maintenance, shaved or combed, in my opinion!
        shaved looks way way better than that posted pic

          The posted pic is very clearly not someone with MPB though. More like Areata.

          Both look dreadful. Both need hats!

            Gusto can I ask what you sport now just a short cut or shaved or did you get surgery. One thing I have noticed about surgery is no matter the best result under certain lighting you will always look thinner (but there are some amazing results)

            Fixed by 35 - You really have a passion for hating shaved heads I have noticed. I am assuming you would rather wear a piece or just go gracefully bald with thinning and recession then shave. I understand about opinions and you are only being honest from what you think... just out of interest do you also hate the bald guy who has a beautiful partner in a restaurant

            Lets face it everyone on this forum has issues the guys who are shaved and moved on without any confidence issues do not care what we think about shaved heads or not or thinning hair... they have great jobs and a wonderful relationship and life where they are doing amazing things while us sad fools just sit here on the forum crying and feeling sorry for ourselves (negative energy fuels even more negative energy). Apart from a very few people who are genuinely happy with themselves trying to help the rest of us it seems most of us arent willing to want to be helped

            ie should I shave my head.... answer by alot of people no you will look like rubbish what a food who are you kidding (very constructive and maybe if you need to ask questions like that its best to ask loved ones and your friends because end of the day isnt that all that matters)

              I used to have my hair cut very short, almost shaved. But I recently bought a few hair systems from China, so I have had to grow my hair back in so that the hair systems match. Once my hair is matched in, I will pop a hair system on and post a pic. But it's been too hot of late, so I just wear a baseball cap.

                And you obviously do not suit the shaved look

                Spencer always says do what you gotta do to get through the day. Whether it be hair piece or toppik or comb over or shaved. Its each individual. Plus the only one it matters to is yourself. Women love confidence.

                I want to try my hair shaved. Its either that or full on Surgery. The concern everyone should worry about is what it will look like when they are fifty years old. So we all gotta do what we feel we need to do because I know if I feel depressed and unable to function over the next twenty years I may aswell just pop some sleeping pills and be done with it.

                  Being bald is okay in the summer, but I had some hair on today and it looked all right. It was cool today as well, but I didn't go out in my hair. I will later though because I think it looks all right.

                    Well I am all for do what you gotta do and I am sure those systems look pretty good

                    I myself cannot go the system route I would have a whole new subset of anxiety of will it fly off in the wind what does it look like now and now and what about now and also swimming. Just a big worry

                    Shaving my head would be pretty funny and also it means no hat hair for riding my death machine motorcycle. I figure I will be dead by thirty five anyway

                      I can understand that wearing a system is like trading one anxiety for another.

                      A) The loss of hair, for B) The anxiety of will I be busted wearing fake hair.

                      So far I haven't worn my hair in public. I've worn it whilst riding my bike, but that's all. The wind never blew it off. I am though intending to go back into TV extra work, and that's where I will definitely wear it.
