Here's AJ Maclean, who I think was Norwood 5 or 6. If you peruse his instagram, you see he almost always wears a hat still. When he doesn't wear a hat I think he uses concealer. But here he is getting his hair cut, the comments are full of people giving him sh*t for his hair:

And reading this thread and seeing my childhood idols (U2) struggling with this stupid disease is humbling. When I see celebrities balding, I can't help but wonder how much anguish and pain went on behind the scenes. And in the case of The Edge, what the f*** kind of options or hope did he have in 1987? I just wonder if all the fame, money, and limitless sex made up for it? The conclusion I draw is no, not at all. Even God-tier (as you guys say) celebrities usually report feeling very insecure. Imagine having a decaying pile of straw on your head while you are expected to appear on stage, go to red carpets, appear at fancy parties , etc. Id rather bald in obscurity.
