In the west, many gentlemen start to go bald from their 30's or 40's onwards.

I am sure there must be bald thai men out there, but i have not seen one. it must be true to say, at least, thai men do not suffer from baldness as much as their western counterpart. why is this? is it genes or stress, or..? have you seen a bald thai man?

Plenty, they mostly wear orange robes.

My boyfriend's Dad is bald apart from a fringe round the edge. The boyfriend looks to be going that way too. I'd swap him for a new one if I didn't love him quite so much (the boyfriend not the Dad).

Since the baseball cap fad hit Thailand you do not see/notice so many bald heads.

wat?

Simon

Dont get out much do you Kunash ?......

Plenty. It does seem there are fewer who have convinced themselves that it's attractive though.

Indeed a rare sight in the general population, although I have an "in-law" aged 35 who is seriously thinning on top.

My missus tells me it's because he drank too much beer when he was younger, while eyeing my healthy thatch expectantly, waiting for the first sign of "I told you so".

so they are out there then. i guess i will have to look harder.

what about grey hair on thai men? again i dont see, but maybe they dye it.

They do go bald, but they try to hide it, it's the Yul Bynner effect.

They are indeed there.

But as one member stated, more rare in the general population than back in the west.

And the baseball caps cover it.

I know a few here.

They grey hair?

That is an easy one. They color it dark again.

Same as the Philippinos and Malays do.

I have had so many questions from the hair dressers if I want to die my hair darker again where the grey have appeared.

When I say no, they look at me with big eyes, like they think, why in the name of Buddha would he keep his grey hair.

Word to comfort thos follicly challenged tv members..."It takes a good man to grow hair on his head, but a better man to where it off"

Is it true that thais thing you are a sex addict if you have a hairy chest? No wonder my eyes are so bad.

I've noticed this, too. Far fewer balding guys here.

I have Thai hairline envy...

Grass doesn't grow on Busy Roads.

My brother in law at his wedding.

My wifes grandfather is 94 and is bald.

Went grey down below first so now the head matches.

Got a cousin in law who is pretty bald and has been since his 30's I think. But the 75 year old FIL has a healthy head of hair many guys half his age would envy.

They are out there but its very rare.

edit: oh yes, Thai men gray, but many also dye their hair, same as the ladies

Seen many thai men who are going bald...some even go for the comb over look ..

Why any one would want to have a head looking like a bar code i will never know .

Hair does not grow on brains

if thai men are not getting bald means they're low on testosterone.

if they get bald they are Chinese ethnic or partially...

In today's issue of a newspaper that shall not be named, there is a picture of two Thai snooker players who appear somehwhat follicly challenged.

Don't see too many bald Thai men around, but one does see some particularly creative combovers and the odd horrific toupe.

What a bunch of idiotic and nonsense posts. Thais bald at the same frequency as their western counterparts. There is no genetic difference in hair loss rates among the 3 races of Caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negroid. caps have as much to do with it as tight dresses make women fat.

I guess I will get a warning for using the M and N words but those are the names of the other 2 races. And no, oriental is not a race.

And no, oriental is not a race.

Agreed, it's a sort of train.

Actually, fat women make dresses tight would be more accurate.

Statistics huh, got some?

Saw a bald one just yesterday in a toll booth at Luam Phang I think he had alopetia or something and he had a cover over his head but what you could see indicated serious balding. Hopefully he wasn't on Chemo and still having to work with that nasty fight on his hands

I also think that a lack of testosterone could be the reason asian men don't seem to bald as

much as westerners, i also think that's why so many ladyboys can easily take a course

of female hormones and look so feminine.

You should get a warning for promoting the idea of there being no regional differences between people. Tumbled lies like that encourage racism.

There's apparently a significant genetic contribution to baldness, so it would be very odd for there to be no regional differences. Whites suffer most and American Indians least. Confusingly, though, there is also some evidence that diet has an effect - fat seems to encourage baldness.
