Does dying your hair make you go bald?

    If i were to "frost my tips" would it weaken my hair and speed up the receding process?

    Are some bleaches milder than others? Wheres the best place in town for a guy to get his done and how much would it cost?

    Nah it shouldn't, but get a good conditioner 'cause it can leave your hair quite straw like for a while.
    Try the Grafton Barbers, they'll probably do it for around €65-€85 and they do a really good job.

    In certain circumstances it could.

    It also looks very dated, not to mention unattractive

    As long as you don't go overboard with the whole thing and get it done proplerly, it should be ok. You also have to really look after it afterwards as well, or it could get very dry.

    Yeah, and the dryness could weaken your hair in turn 'causing you to lose a bit.

    As I said, make sure you get a good conditioner and for the first while wash your hair in cold/warm water, not hot as that apparently causes your scalp to dry out (again weakening your hair) and avoid blowdrying it.

    That said, if you're just getting the tips done it should be fine as you're not going near the roots.

    it could cause your hair to weaken and break or fall out but it's rather unlikely it will make you go bald.. seeing as baldness is a genetic thing..
