    If you don't want to go bald or want to regrow hair then loosen your scalp.

    Tight scalps cause baldness, massage the muscles above the eyebrows, ears and at the back of the head. Also stretch your scalp.

    Thats my good deed for the day.

    So when it's tight, it's bald.

    Right.

    In this day and age of instant information at your fingertips, people will still believe any old horse ****é.

    OK let's imagine this is true and it sounds plausible, then how does one explain that transplanted hair will happily grow on the same tight scalp?

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    The good thing about going bald is you never have to carry keys again.

    As you'll have no more locks.

    I have my coat, don't worry.

    I can back up the OP's claim. I was once bald now I've more hair than a horse and I'm hung like one too. All thanks to massaging my scalp.

    Tranplanted hair falls out eventually too, thats why surgeons insist on anti DHT treatements.

    If reckon there is a correlation between the particular pattern of hairloss and the shape of a person's.

    I'm having difficulties cultivating a tash for Movember. Shall I massage my upper lip?

    Weird that the countless billions spent on baldness research hasn't discovered this.

    Hair transplants only last 2-5 years before falling out again.;)

    You can't bottle a massage and make money out of it. But you can make money by selling products that people must take for life to keep their hair.

    And even after all the billions spent on baldness, we still don't fully understand the causes. Without understanding the cause, you cannot cure the condition, only treat the symptoms.

    Incorrect... ish. Transplanted hair will live as long as they would in the unaffected area they came from. The bald hairs are genetically sensitive to the male hormone and this can be demonstrated. The problem may come if the hair is taken from an area that will eventually go bald anyway. However even the baldest(male pattern) blokes hair above the ears and at the nape of the neck will grow throughout life, so if you transplanted them they stay growing on the top of the head. Hell one could transplant beard and pubic or chest hair to the crown and it would grow for life. The problem is that unless the subject has dense hair in the non baldy parts, filling in on the top is not so easy. Hair cloning would solve this of course and could restore a complete head of hair non susceptible to the male hormone and it's byproducts.

    Oh I'm quite sure baldness in men(and women) has many causes all lumped under male pattern baldness. The fact it can vary so much in individuals suggests that it's not just one cause/factor. I did read of one research team that suggested thining at the front of the scalp was almost entirely genetic(which why it's apparently the hardest to stop/reverse), but thinning at the crown was partly genetic, but more environmental.

    I like being bald. If I was offered the best transplant treatment for free, I'd turn it down. I think I'd look weird now with hair. Also, shaving instead of barbers - winner.

    But, not to be rude to the OP, I'll rub my head a bit.

    One example of transplanted hair falling out would be wayne rooney.

    Any guy with thinning hair saying he didn't give it a go after reading that is a liar.

    It takes months to a year to take effect.

    there's plenty of before and after photos of impressive results on the immortal hair forum. Ten minutes a day is considered enough.

    I better stop massaging my arse so -

    The only scientific way to beat male pattern baldness is by growing the hair long on one side and stretching it over the affected area.
