I think this is the best advice that you're going to get. But if you still want a way out, here are a few tips:

My dad has been bald since he was 29. A couple years ago, on a whim, he went and got fitted for a top of the line rug. It freaked me out for a while but then I realized that I actually couldn't tell and neither could any who met him since getting the rug.

It pains me to say this: it works. It looks good. I usually forget that he's actually bald under there. The thing is, apparently, they all look like shit unless you're willing to pour thousands upon thousands into having a good one like my dad's. Personally, I would rather just go bald.

My little brother, now 20, started to lose his hair at 17 which really really sucked. No man should have to lose his hair before losing his virginity. It started to go pretty fast, but then he got on that Propecia stuff and within 2-3 months, it stopped the hair loss completely. He was on it for two more years and I think now he uses a much lower dosage. It's actually grown back.

My ex's father started losing his hair, also went on Propecia and it stopped as well (though none grew back).

One of my best friend's has been losing his hair pretty rapidly since he was 19. But the guy simply does not care. He's very matter-of-fact about it and because of that confidence, I never even think of him as being bald and consequently, neither do women.

"Be the bald," placeholder. Of course, if you have an oddly shaped head, maybe just buy some hats?

propecia = finasteride

proscar = propecia but more mgs per tablet, and cheaper, but intended for prostate use.

the usual trick is getting a proscar prescription then cutting the pills into 4 and taking one per day.

bizingo. i have the genes for chrome dome, so i've done research in advance.

I started going bald about two years ago, so I just went ahead and went completely bald. My suggestion is a Gillette Mach 3 razor, a fogless mirror (for shaving in the shower) and some good shaving cream. Good luck to you.

This is great as well. Really makes up for the sense of loss.
