what should men do when they go bald?

[AngryAmish]

1. Please combover

Just gives more room (female wise)to us who have more dignity.

[traco]

2. I think a bald man

is very attractive

[candy]

14. Thanks-iIcome from a family with lots of bald men-

and they just shave it off.

It's almost fshionable today.

[traco]

16. Just have to watch out for

sunburn!

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

3. Enjoy the distinction

and flaunt it!

[dolo amber]

4. Punt

n/t

[Bucky]

5. Wear one of those Devo red-Ziggurat hats

[dolo amber]

6. Ooooh, can I

change my answer? :7

[fryguy]

7. bald is beautiful!

and between shaving my own head and not having bought shampoo in about 3 years (soap works fine, thank you very much), its cost effective.....and the lady loves it!

[Bluebear]

8. A nice buzz cut

[NMDemDist2]

18. that's what hubby does

he has me buzz him 3/8" all over his head and the thin spot doesn't show at all

[left is right]

9. In our current society and if the balding man is rich

he will take hair from the working poor

[CanuckAmok]

21. He should! They'd just spend it on drugs...

damn hairy poor people!!

11. Let it grow and pull it back in a tail

Well, that's what I did, but mostly because I was too lazy and cheap to pay someone to cut something that was mostly not there. And I can't shave.

[Guaranteed]

34. Yeah, like a samurai!

:)

[SarahB]

12. Keep the rest of it short (i.e. buzzed)

Combovers are a no-no.

[Massacure]

13. How go grow instant hair

Take a 2 foot by 2 foot piece of cardboard, and cut a hole in it big just big enough so it fits over your head. Take a can of spray paint tht closest resembles your hair and spray it on the bald spot.

Eureka! You know look like you have hair.

NOTE: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU SCREW UP AND HARM YOURSELF OR MAKE YOURSELF LOOK LIKE A GOON!

:P

15. Become a starship captain

eom

17. Other: Let it fucking happen!

That's what I'm doing.

[chaska]

19. Am I the only one that thinks shaved heads are vain as hell?

And, for the record, not every balding head looks good shaved. Some folk look rather grotesque shaved.

[lazarus]

22. that's an awful broad brush there

I shave my head for medical reasons. To be honest, I wish I would go bald, but it's not likely to happen. The men in my family tend to keep their hair. My dad's approaching 65, and is just starting to thin a little.

Luckily, I do look good shaved. Why is it any more vain than any other hair cut? I haven't paid anyone to cut my hair in years, after all.

[marzipanni]

20. Play tennis, go skiing, ride a bike....

act in a play, jump on a trampoline...do everything they enjoyed doing when they had more hair, (and try some new stuff, too).;)

[Guy_Montag]

23. Cry - that's what I do

:cry:

[OldEurope]

24. Poor Guy! Don´t cry, bald men look sexy...

...at least my husband does, and many others too.

:hi:

[Guy_Montag]

25. I don't really,

but it is an symbol of the end of youth. I do have a red sports car too, but I got that before I started going bald.:shurg:

[Feanorcurufinwe]

26. Of all those choices, the sports car is the only one that looks any fun.

27. Whatever works for their head

and the type of balding they've got. A man whose forehead is expanding often looks fine with a ponytail. A man with male pattern baldness usually looks bizarre with long hair (often looks too much like a monk's tonsure); they often look best with their hair kept fairly short. If the balding is patchy, then shaving it might be the best solution.

What doesn't work is fakery - toupees, spray-on hair, combovers. No one is fooled and you've spent a great deal of time and money making yourself look peculiar. I have yet to meet a woman who was as concerned about her husband or boyfriend balding as he was. It's what men do instead of worrying about how they look in a bikini, I suppose.

There's no one solution that works for every balding man.

28. MMMMMMM Yummmmy!!!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

29. You could always try

Chia Pet seeds...

But personally, I prefer au natural.

[Deja Q]

30. I'd wear a hat.

Screw the acceptable dress policy, my head's gonna get covered!!

[Canuckistanian]

31. Start eating suckers

(For you youngsters, Google Kojak)
On edit: At least spell the damn name right.

32. Anything but a rug

Ray Charles could've spotted most of those birds' nests that guys are walking around with!

Five Greasy Pieces
Bad hair is not a revenge move. That's why characters on The Sopranos generally bump off their enemies with handguns or blunt objects -- they don't make them stare for hours at men in toupees. Like your boyfriend's hair mistake-over, the toupee is proof of a common blind spot in heterosexual men: the inability to see reality, as perceived by the rest of humanity, while looking directly into the mirror. A man sporting a head-rug is under the impression he's hiding hair loss. Of course, he could be running down the street, naked and on fire, and it's the first thing anybody would see: "Mommy, Mommy, look at that man with the dead ferret where his hair should be!""

33. don't give a moments worry about it....
