At 79 I have a thick head of hair but I'm losing my teeth. Which is worse?

Have you try comb-over?

having hair looks 10000x better then being bald on most people but end of the day it's up to you.

 

Now you're really going to cause the lad to worry and lose even more hair.      ????

Even though this is obviously a great attempt at a troll it has brightened my morning.Thanks.

PS,you've nailed it with that feeling that you get when you first notice it going,hahaha.

I started to loose hair quite young, and still have hair, but better to let it go. The sad thing is all my relatives and friends who joked about it, now loose their hair to, and I can see how painful it is to them. And the good thing, they know what they joked with me every time we meet, and I do not mention it or their hair at all. Still they think about for sure ???? 

Quick go get the covid shot. You might be a spreader and I'm 81 and don't want to lose my hair.

I had a hair transplant at Hairsmith Clinic in Bangkok this year. Very happy with the results. Not suggesting you get a hair transplant if you are happy shaving your head... only saying the Dr. there does good work if you wanted one.

How many blue pills can I buy for the price of one hair transplant?

Better to buy new teeth, than hair

You should tell us your age, age matters

First shave your head entirely. Next get some tattoos all over your face, hands and body and you will look like a true Brit.

Would that work on my bald scrotum ?

Yes but in a very different way.

I first started losing my hair when I was 23/24ish. I was home from the army one summer and dad mentioned I was looking "a bit shy on top". I laughed, but a couple months later whilst in a barber's chair, by happenchance I was able to see the back (crown) of my head and was a bit shocked that I could faintly see the scalp through the hair.
For whatever genetical reason though, the hair loss is only on the "crown", which is now almost completely bald (36ish years later). Just a few strands of grayish hair left.
The rest of the scalp is still it's normal density and pretty much all "white" now. My "salt and pepper" period only lasted a couple of years it seems.

Of course, dear old dad had a complete head of hair pretty much right up until he died at age 77. Old bas**** !
The "gene" for male pattern baldness is passed down from the mother apparently. So if your wife's father is bald(ing) there's a good chance your male children will also end up bald. Your female children will likely pass the "bald" gene on to any male children they may have.

For most of my adult life, I've kept my hair very short. In part from being in the Army, in part from it is easier to maintain when deployed (can cut it yourself with an electric cutter), in part because in some climates it is more comfortable. I even had a period of about 7 years where I shaved my head (about every 3rd day). Was great as I had to shave anyways and never had to go to a barber the whole time. Never had a problem with the sun (usually always wearing a hat of some kind anyways back then).
I keep my hair very short here for much the same reasons as when I was in the Army. Easy to maintain, can cut it myself, more comfortable in hot, humid climates and no worries about "helmet head" when riding on a motorcycle.

Also, a bit of trivia. The Greek historian Herodotus wrote about male baldness over 2,400 years ago ! While on an excursion in Egypt, he noted that Egyptian males had few instances of baldness than Greek males did. He attributed it possibly to the way that Egyptian children usually had shaved heads until they became adults.

So baldness was a bit of an issue even back then !

So if it's an issue for you, I'd suggest the short "crew cut" look (or a "#0" from the barber, which, it seems, is the shortest setting on the electric razor and a slight step about shaving it all off entirely).

After awhile you may find yourself wondering why you didn't start doing that years ago !

Quite simple actually.  Just do what every aging rocker does and sport a full-time bandanna!   It seems to work as chicks still throw themselves at these guys, and aside from their money, fame, talent and looks, you can't be that much different!

Best to avoid a comb over though... that isn't so cool.

 

I think bald men were popular when Kojak was on the TV. Don't know about today, though I suspect Thai girls may like it as it is a it of a novelty as Bald Thai men are few and far between.

I had a friend who used to put boot polish on his bald spot. Claimed it was cheaper than a toupée.

What happened when it rained? ????

Go to any drug store and buy 5 mg Finasteride. Buy a pill cutter too. Cut each tablet into 4 and take one each day.

 

This is an instant cure for male pattern baldness, and your hair will stop falling out within a day or two. Some hair will grow back, but not much. It effectively stops the balding process from when you start taking it.

 

Some people say that the bald look is attractive. It is all relative. Every single person who is bald looked much more handsome when they had hair.

Never seen him with hair in a movie. Even Snatch in 2000 had him bald. Apparently he started losing hair rapidly in 1990, but he carries off the bald look pretty well.

That's an exercise in vanity.  Just shave it off.  It's not a bad look.  I had mine shaved, but when I ran my hand over my head I had stubble covering my entire head.  So I grew it back out and just accept that I'm thinning on top.  It ain't a big deal.  I happens as you age.  Embrace it.

Sounds more like you have lost your brain or at least most of it
