I don't know why but I too are dreading going bald, I thought I started receding circa aged 22. My girlfriend at the time said we needed to get married ASAP as she didn't want her husband to be bald in her wedding pics. I came to the conclusion I was losing my hair as I practically lived in a baseball cap in and out of work. I stopped wearing a cap and swear I never lost another hair for 10 more years. I always got a little kick outta seeing my now ex girlfriend with a chap who's bald as a coot and I still have all my hair. She never married him either.

Now, at nearly 34 years of age I believe the onset off baldness has started again. A can of Regaine is on my Xmas list as I have been told by a couple lads I know it def slows the process down. I know a lot of people will roll their eyes at this but as soon as I feel it needs doing I will pay fair hair relocation surgery - a la Wayne Rooney.

Fuck it, you only live once and if it affects your confidence in some way then I can't see why you shouldn't have it done. For the record I'm not the least bit vain, I guess losing hair for a man is like gaining weight for a woman.
