I’ve noticed my hair thinning and hairline receding since I was about 25 or so.

I’ve been using Collagen and Biotin “thickening” shampoo but never noticed any difference. My dad swears by some pills he started taking.

What’s Lemmy think? Is he just paying for pills that are placebo effect?

    I started balding in my late teens. Shaved my head for the first time at 20. Never looked back. Wished I’d done it sooner.
    Still remember an offhand comment from a girl who said I have a nice shaped head.
    A quick once over with the clippers once a week and you’re good.
    Whatever you decided to do don’t stress about it! I’m sure that will only make it worse.
    Bonus: the freshly shaved head acts as velcro to keep your hat on during windy days!

      See I have a lumpy awful shaped head but thankfully I’m 37 with thick full hair still, so I might be in the clear. I know what you’re saying though, I bet you looks good with a shaved head!! Honestly some people look better bald (not me though)

      Same situation, started at 17 and besides a bit of melancholy right after I first buzzed it all off I* haven’t looked back either.

      Shit’s just so convenient.
