Hair loss

Anyone here worried about it?
Any way to prevent it?
I noticed I can see my scalp from the back where my "crown" is. That kinda bugs me. Is that normal?

what the hell does this have to do with anything? lol.


I noticed when I was a low-fat Nazi that my hair always seemed to be real thin and I always thought I was losing it. I switched to whole milk and starting eating egg yolks instead of just whites and in general just started eating more fat and noticed a a big difference in the thickness of my hair. I've been searching for some studies involving this and haven't been able to find anything. I'd be interested to see some science behind it if there is an actual connection between lack of fat and hair loss.

Try massaging your scalp for a couple minutes everyday.

You could use Rogain or Propecia. Are you using legal steroids/pre-cursers? you could use saw palmetto to help you more with that.

however, if you are destine to go bald, then your only hope is to go to some Bosley medical company where they take the back end hairs which never fall out and put in the areas where your hair is falling.


that surgery is fucking expensive i heard.

I first started noticing the thinning/receding in the front corners of my hairline when I was 24.

I was freaked out at first, but when I actually started checking out other guy's hairlines, I realized that I wasn't alone. In fact, MOST guys are showing some signs of recession by their mid 20's.

I briefly tried using Rogaine. I didn't use it long enough or consistently enough to say whether it works or not, simply because I couldn't stand using it. It makes your hair feel greasy, and it stinks.

I don't think I'll ever try Propecia, because it's expensive and I've heard the sides are not fun.

If they come up with some other "cure" sometime in the future I might consider it, but for now I'm just going to keep my hair cut short and take it like a man, come what may.

I guess this doesn't help you much, but it helps to talk about it

Get a prescription for propecia from your doctor. The earlier you start on it the better.
