Hair messed up cos of wind !!

This might sound silly but does anyone has same problem?

If you are a male and your hairline is receding but you spend 10-15 minutes to style your hair to cover the baldness and as soon as you walk out in the wind on the way to work everything is messed up leaving you look horrible.

Not sure what can be done about it !! ( Not shaving my head by the way)

Simply act in a manner befitting your chromosomal setup.

Wear a hat?

Or walk around holding your comb-over in place with your hand. That always looks impressive.

10 to 15 minutes..... jesus..... and what's worse is that it's probably totally obvious to people you spend so long to not try and look bald in the first place....

Unless those 10-15 mins are spent sticking hair to your head then yes, I'm afraid you likely can tell.

Embrace your baldness, get a John Luc Picard hairstyle, the ladies will go mad for it, comb overs are so 70s- dodgy looking guy in a trench coat

I think you need to face up to it..
You might think its 10-15 mins well spent but I can assure you its as obvious as the nose on your face to the people around you that your going bald and not comfortable with it.. to me it demonstrates serious lack of confidence in a persons self...
I'm not saying shave your head..

Go to a decent barber and ask what the best approach is..

ringadingding · 21-01-2014 10:46AM

Man card please, its being revoked

I am pretty confident but not with my hair line receding. Barber said hair transplant would be good option

3-4k

10-15 seconds for a bloke to sort out hair is an excessive waste of time.

OldGoat · 21-01-2014 10:54AM

Beard comb-over FTW

Specialun · 21-01-2014 10:54AM

maybe try an afro wig

BrensBenz · 21-01-2014 10:57AM

Man up! Stop spending girlie amounts of time styling a comb-over. Cut it off! You're not losing your hair - you're gaining face! At least that's what the other chemo patients told me when I first arrived. I was also told to buy a no-no and reverse the batteries to make it a yes-yes but I much prefer my expanding collection of hats.

Ihatecuddles · 21-01-2014 10:57AM

My other half is going bald. He doesn't care and I really admire that about him. He has a bald spot the size of a fist on the crown and the hair at the front is receding to meet it pretty sharpish. His bald spot is my favourite thing about him

After all that faffing, even without the wind undoing all the effort to hide the baldy, people are most likely looking at your hair and asking one question.

'Does that guy really think I think he has hair?'

Shave it, think of the time saved.

greedygoblin · 21-01-2014 11:01AM

OP, the truth is you're going bald. Now can you handle the truth? (looks at username :pac:)

Hair messed up cos of wind !!
