    The most common mistake men make is when they buy a toupee they forget that baldness also takes place on the temples.

    Some men have thick hair (fake) on top, yet their temples have badly receded. That is one definite giveaway. A man with real thick hair should also have dense hair on the temples which comes closer to the eyes.

    I wasn't taught this, I observed it.

    The midde-aged guy in this YouTube vid has receding temples. Note how putting hair on his head doesn't compensate for the lack of hair on his temples.

    I disagree. The hair is way too thick on top. He should have more hair on the temples.

    Men with that amount of hair on top, rarely have receded temples. It just doesn't happen.

    Personally, I think the guy looks stupid, because he's bad-mouthing people with 'bad wigs' and he's wearing one himself.

    He should have opted for a much lower density and a SHORTER, less flamboyant hair style. I

    Mhh, I looked at it again. I still think it looks good. You are right about the temples, though this guy doesn't have that much temple recession. It is not that thick on his frontal side areas either, so it looks ok.

    It definitely makes him look less fat, younger and just much more youthful overall.


    I better not lose my damn hair!

    It's amazing how improved he looked with the hair piece. And would shaving his head have had the same effect? Hell no.

    Both shaving and his current look, looks terrible.

    Absolutely horrendous. If I was a norwood 4-6 my life would almost be over... I would die.

    At least I think so.

    Dare I say it, you might learn to live with it. So will the people you've known all your life (although you'll never be an 'equal' with them again because you can't conform). Strangers never will though.

    The worst people to deal with when you are bald is strangers. By that, I mean certain categories of strangers. In particular, interview panels.

    Unfortunately, most HR departments in Britain are run by women, so baldness is not, openly at least, a problem they have any experience of. They're typically therefore not just unsympathetic but somewhat downright discriminatory towards it.

    Of course, in Britain (and possibly across the pond in the USA too) unwritten laws exist that women can't discriminate, never ever. Except against minorities less privileged than them of course. But I'm rambling now!

    Animals can't tell the difference but humans are very discriminating. That's w are not animals!
