Youri McAnespie Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) Just asking for a mate, like. I've a full head of hair. But, how long can the process take? From noticing one is a bit thinner up top to having to take the clippers in (or don a hat/syrup)? My mate has noticed a worrying pace of late. There's drugs about to counter the hormone, but apparently can cause permanent droopiness (non-moustache) that even handfuls of blueys and onscreen blueys can't solve. Personal experiences, anyone (for me to pass on)..? Edited December 18, 2018 by Youri McAnespie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted December 18, 2018 Site Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2018 It'll be reet, barbers do a cracking job with the usual hair style - a bit off the back, a bit off the sides and a bit off the floor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) I've, I mean he's had a number one on several occasions - it's quite liberating, but it's always been by choice. I've a scar just above the forehead which is providing an annoying benchmark to irrefutably track the progress, or rather, egress. I meant he has.

kent_white Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Stop being a fanny and shave it off! Mine started falling out when I was about 16 so I've had plenty of time to get used to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 It's not that bad yet! Not at all, but it's going for sure. My old man had a full head of hair until he pegged it at 76, his brothers still have all their hair. Unfortunately my mam's side is awash with slapheads - probably karma for ancestral dalliance with the NSDAP/SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Spider Posted December 18, 2018 Site Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2018 If you had lustrous Anglo Saxon flaxen locks like mine, you wouldn't be worrying. I bet you've got them horrid, pube-like black hairs that clog everything up haven't you? Especially now you're shedding like a flock of pigeons fighting over a chip.

Especially now you're shedding like a flock of pigeons fighting over a chip.  You've a very low opinion of me I've Germanic light brown and (until recently) thick and bountiful locks - barbers and 'birds' would coo over it. My current situation isn't helped by the fact my current (new-ish) squeeze would coo over it, she'd often make comments like "you've still a lovely head of hair" in early courtship. To which I'd make non-commital grunts and hmm's in reply. I reckon', unmolested, I'll probably have a full-on 'early Frasier Crane' within five years based on the current pattern.  Edited December 18, 2018 by Youri McAnespie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 That's not far from the truth atm, haha, for other reasons than going Phil Collins I haven't been to the barbers for two months - got a burgeoning bouffant going on.

Again, not far from the truth - Kingstone Press Cider (£1 @ One Stop Shop) instead of Breaker though - and I wouldn't woo anyone from G/L I'm from the posh part see, although if I wooed any of my neighbours we'd probably end up buried in a pair of suitcases on the moors somewhere between here and Blackburn.

Many factors at play here (on hair loss) but I understood a very important one is your Mum's genes. So a good indicator is your Mum's male relatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) I'm bollocksed then. Mam's side; granddad I never met - baldy. Uncles - baldies, male cousins (blood aunties' kids) - slapheads. I'm doomed. Me in five years (computer generated aged picture, below). Still, if life gives lemons, make lemonade. Every cloud an' all that... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1517756/That-rent-boy-affair-It-was-because-I-was-going-bald.html Edited December 18, 2018 by Youri McAnespie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just look a spaz if you try to fight it. I had a lovely David Coverdale type mop once. When it started to go it didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. I'm now a happy slappy fanny magnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter barryk32 Posted December 18, 2018 Site Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2018 Mine started to clog the plug hole at bastard 14!!! It did help getting shit cider though. Nobody bats an eyelid at a baldy, every fucker in the world points and laughs at a baldy doing his upmost to cling on to whatever is left though. Embrace it and start putting your shampoo money to one side.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
