And the reason for baldness is? - Page 2

I have an oily head as well. I have far more hair then I can ever know what to do with as well. It is crazy! I have to just get it buzzed every now and then. I had a full head of crazy hair when I was born to.

Humph

, well as my Grandad (father's side who went bald in his 20s like me, my Dad went bald later and has more fuzz on top than me

) said, too much brain pushes hair out, or a variation "grass doesn't grow on a busy street."

Seriously, genetics is a big factor. This dry skin thing, I have dry skin, so I wonder if it is linked in fact. :hmm:

I'd always thought it was something genetic that you'd inherited on the maternal side. :hmm: But I really have no idea. My hair is of the dry variety (not dandruff level dry, but not far off) and has been slowly thinning at the temples for the last few years, but not noticably so other than to me (I'm in my early 30s). My dad was bald by the time he hit 40, I'm hoping to escape the same fate since I'm not into the shaved head + goatee look that's become the fad among those with receeding hairlines (though its a big step up from the 80s comb over

).

I'm bald as well - strong genetic component there.

I was told once that men who are bald on the front of their heads are great thinkers; men who are bald on the backs of their heads are great lovers; and men who are bald on the front and back of their heads think they're great lovers.

Look on the bright side - we bald guys are the first to know when it starts raining.

Almost missed this thread...

The reason for baldness is stress....

So the longer STEED you refuse to post your picture on the mug shot thread the balder you will become!

I started thinning im my mid-twenties and I started buzzing my head when I was 28. It was strange in the beginning, but people got used to it quickly. I have never thought about toupees, medicines etc. I`m just as happy with little hair as I was with dark curls
