No, not anymore, I used to a lot during my twenties but thankfully I'm free from that mental shackle now. If it does cross my mind from time to time it's not long before I'm thinking about something else.

For me its a blessing in disguise. First of all I don't look bad at all bald, it suits me. Secondly it saves me a lot of hassle, as I don't have to wash, dye (my hair is greying) and pay for a haircut. Hair is overrated anyway. I have noticed that bald makes my good facial features stand out more. I have good eyes, nose and smile. It doesn't affect my look in anyway. I think there is no point in spending so much money on hair, as in having hair transplants, or risking your health for it by taking hormone dis-balancing drugs.

Maybe an hour here and there if I'm having fun. A day? Hell no.

Not one day passes that my thinning or fear of going completely bald does not occur.

I think about it every time I apply a topical, take a pill, dermaroll, etc. I will NEVER accept it. I refuse.

It's really hard not to think about it an entire day.

I look into the mirror in the morning to brush my teeth, I take a shower dry my hair, I walk to my car and see my reflection in the window, I arrive at work open the glass entrance door -> again my reflection, I take a leak and wash my hands at the sink to again notice a mirror in front of me, etc...

It's kinda surprising how many times a day you're more or less forced to look upon you're own face. I didn't even used to be a vain person to begin with.

Nope, every single ****ing day...:( I used to have dreams and ambitions, everyday they seem to be sinking further and further into the ground. Every time I look in the mirror I hate what I see looking back at me, I don't see the same person anymore.

Probably every single day (as Im on these forums). BUT I don't let it bug me as much as it used to. I wear a hat outdoors, but next week, once the weather is warm, it's going and the world can see my buzzed head in all its glory. F*** their views and opinions.

The only time I've felt awful was on a recent night out when I was the talk of the night. I blame that on not being seen in years by friends and my buzz was short on sides and top and it grew out looking odd. Im so tempted to go no-guard for a few weeks and see how it is....

It comes and goes. My thinning and receding has been very slow, starting when I was 25. I'm 33 now and still have enough on my crown to comb and style. I must confess that it gets to me the most when there are a lot of other changes going on in my life, and the change in my appearance is just a peg to hand the rest on. People tell me it doesn't look bad, but, being of very conservative habit, I don't like change to begin with.

Whenever I'm photographed, I must admit, I get a little nervous as well. Therefore, I'm a little camera-shy unless I wear a hat. Doesn't help me much with the driver's license or passport, though. I dread renewing these.

That said, with my pace of thinning, I tend to go through periods in which I don't think of it at all. Until another photograph is taken of me, that is.

It plagues my existence.
