lol yea sure JayMan..

Not too bad Nathaniel but my hair is loosing density.. I posted some pics of my hair in another forum, not sure if you can see it
http://www.hairloss-reversible.com/disc ... 1158696129

My hair is curly and even though I use an undercut I seem to have a lot of hair except when I look at the top of my head, and usually when it's oily.

My brother in law was a model and he retired at 19 ! Belive it or not most of the guys you see in the clothes catalogues are under 20. Guys must be at least 6'1" tall.
Ps cant tell anything from your pics, since you're on this forum I'm guessing you must have noticible hairloss?

well why not?

JayMan In case my hairloss stops and I'm lucky enough to do modeling I don't want to have any sort of connections with hairloss, it would give me a bad image, hope you understand my concern..

s.a.f I don't know a lot about modeling but when I check agencies websites there's a lot of models that are in their mid 20's but obviously the sooner they start the better, guys need to be at least 5'11" not 6'1" some agencies prefer a minimum of 6'0" though..
about my hairloss, not noticeable yet, at least my family wouldn't notice anything if I didn't try hard for them to see. I posted a link with pics isn't it working?

I saw the pics.

Doesn't look that bad from what I see. Actually you are lucky to have catched it that early, but you need to start treating it to prevent any loss if you are serious about modeling. Personally even though the pics are real close-up, and given that it was taken with a flash I doubt people will notice your hairloss. But you should start treating it anyway. Don't waste time.

Get on finasteride and nizoral as soon as you can. Good luck bro.

So short guys are attractive a best but not a catch. Women have it so easy. They can be any height, any genes. They just need to get in shape, and maybe be get implants, which don't cost much, and they can do whatever they want.

She has to have a cute face too. Actually she needs to have a balance, have a cute face, ok body...Personally I don't care about height.

yeah, women do need a cute face. But as far as above the collar goes, women need a cute face (and are allowed to hide pours with make up), and guys also need a cute face, but also have to have hair, which women don't need to worry about.

Below the collar,
Women need to be in decent shape; not skinny but not chubby. Easy to do, though the ones who love to eat junk food and not exercise will say it is not easy. Men also need to not be skinny, and not chubby, but we also have to exercise harder than women so we can have muscles to compete. Building musle takes longer than loosing fat. We also have to have a large penis, which we can do nothing about. women can tighten themselves with exercises. Women can wear wigs or platform shoes to tell short guys the guys are too short.

Women are allowed to flaunt their body how they want. Men must wear baggier clothes so that only their height shows. Women don't have to make a lot of money because their cost of car insurance, need for room in an apartment, and cost of food is less, and because most other women choose easier, lower paying jobs, so women don't have to compete with each other with money like men do. At least money is something in our power, though not in our youth when our parents dictate that.

Women don't need big breasts. I prefer average size. But if women want them, augmentation is very advanced and cheap, at least compared to a single hair transplant. Once a guy hits the higher NWs, no amount of money will get him his hair back.

Women are allowed to run up to whatever hot guy they want and through their arms around him, and he will just ignore them or laugh it off if he does not like her. If a not so good looking guy does that to a hot woman, she will probably find someone beat him up or file charges.

Some women choose to spend rediculous amounts of money on clothes and make up, but it is not needed. I'm just as attracted to the ones who dress more down to earth.

I never heard of a guy turning a woman down for driving an old car, but women tend to be much pickier. Many women will complain about the dumbest things, like "why do you care if I'm fat?", when being healthy is easy, and is just a lifestyle. Of course it is hard to get healthy if you trash your body half the year and then want to get in shape in a month or a week so you can get a date, and then trash it again. Too many want to drink their soda and look their best. I don't drink soda, but I know they will say I'm just lucky to have high metabolism. Well of course my metabolism is higher; I'm bigger and taller than them, so i'm going to need more food. But their mouth is smaller, so they need just as much time to eat a proportionately smaller amount, so why should they care if i eat more?

85% of women could easily be super models, but only 30% of men can can with much more effort, and much few of both go for their potential, yet we see and equal number of good looking people in both groups, and I think the women complain a lot more than the men, even though the men have less in their control and thus have it worse.

If women want to take their shirt off in public they could easily do a civil law suit and win. It's their own fault if they don't have some of our rights, and I'd love to help them in court if some would start the process.

I agree CCS, natural looking women are absolutely gorgeous. These days, what you see when a women dresses up with the apparal that hides things is not always what you get. They do well at hiding things.

Why are we here in the US so nieve about topless women? It isn't a big deal, really. Practically, everywhere else it is natural.

Tks Nathaniel, so far I'm only on nizoral which alone won't do much but I'm seriously thinking about finasteride, probably in a couple weeks I'm gonna get a prescription.

Tall and slim makes the clothes look better. (no musclebound guys) Generally models have a short shelf life. They will always need models for any age, his sister is 31 and still modelling but after about 25 the work dries up unless you have made a name for yourself. It all depends on what you model he just did clothes his sister has now moved to the product advertising side of things. Your pictures were too close up anyone can part their hair to reveal scalp. It all depends on what you're aiming for there are models out there with hairloss just doing small time stuff to make a few extra bucks, but if you intend to make this a full time career its a competitive market but you can earn good money and there are other benifits. There's also a lot of con artists out there dont trust anyone who isn't from a well known agency.

s.a.f I'm aiming mostly for runway modeling, but I don't want to get my hopes up because of my hair, if I loose it the deception will be greater and even if I'm not successful at doing modeling I still want to keep my whole hair at least till 30s or a bit more, that would be great already..
I also started to notice that I can see my scalp a lot more when it's wet, a lot more than I used to when I started to grow my hair longer about 2 years ago and too many thin and anagen hairs are coming off too, I take it as a definite sign of miniaturization. My father is a NW7 at age 55 and my mother has noticeable less density at 54 even though her side of family doesn't have anyone bald, but she takes blood thinners and other medications so.. Anyway, I'm probably genetically bound to be very bald, just hope the finasteride works well with me.

if you can get in, get in now. take finasteride, and expect to lose more hair, but much slower than your father did. Milk as much money out of this modelling as you can before they kick you out for going bald. the longer you wait, the worse it will get.

Catwalk modelling is the hardest most competitive area. The top men are less well known than the female supermodels but can make just as much cash

Just came across this post...It all depends on how good you look in my opinion, not on how much hair you have lost...a completely bald guy can still look better than 99 percent of guys with hair if hes a stunner, ive seen plenty of evidence..so if i were you, i wouldnt think about how much hair you have lost when making your decision, i would think simply about how good you look in general, even if youre a stage 5 or 6..the other thing is..theres not many bald models out there, so if you do look really really good i think youd have a great chance because youd be a refreshing change from the majority of models..companies could use you to promote an original look..model agencies always state that they want new and exciting faces..well in my opinion someone who looks amazing bald and better than most guys with hair fits that criteria..the only famous bald model i can name is tyson beckford..and he only shaves it completely, hes not actually bald, and hes black.
.. so if you succeeded, youd join the ranks of willis and diesel as improving public perception of the bald man after decades of negative media representations. Im thinking about trying for it myself now, ive been working out intensely for the last month and a half, and am going to try it out sometime in the new year..I wish you luck my friend.
