Bombscience Photo Journal - Part 2 [56k no]

[The Gardener]

Haircut days are the worst. I have bald temples, and try to hide it a bit by 'fluffing' up my center forehead hair. I hated this one time... I was sitting there on the chair, after being shampooed, and the dumbass hairstylist dries my hair, and combs it over exposing the weaker of my bald temples. And then he lets me sit there while he bullshits with the other stylists?! You know how thin hair looks when wet? It looks terrible, worse than if it were dried and naturally styled. All this while girls galore walk by, looking at me, and probably thinking 'thank god my bf isn't bald like that guy'. I should have told them all they were fat, hit them back where it hurts, but I can't force myself to be that much of an a**h**. It was just a sensitive moment.

So i go to this salon and my hairdresser's assistant shampoos me up, and then lets me sit there for 5 minutes with soping wet hair well the hairdresser finished her last haircut. It really sucked, but what are you going to do. I'm very close to shaving it and calling it a loss.

You have plenty of time to fight your hairloss. You're at the stage where if someone looked at your hair, they would wonder whether or not you're losing it, not that you ARE losing it.

By the looks of things you have years of buffer time to get something going, so I wouldn't worry all that much right now.

Acutually a little bit of sympathy is comforting. Yeah people are starting to notice and it's really funny finding out who your friends are. I do have to say that I always been blessed to be fairly in shape and get attention from girls. But it's funny now because I have a lot of girls that are friends that I maintain an innocently flirtacious relationship with probably becaue of a mutual attraction. Some of these girl's superficiality is really coming out when they notice i'm balding. They dont seem to flirt too much anymore.

Not to sound like a girl, but it really is wearing on me to be less physically attractive to the opposite sex.

I've got a movie for you bombscience, maybe you've seen it, it's called The Tao of Steve:

1. Watch it
2. Learn from it
3. Use the knowledge

...

Seems like your regimen is pretty solid. Have you tried folligen spray to help with your irritation? Maybe you should throw on some spironolactone too. Something has to work, just be persistent man, and optimistic; you're hairloss isn't bad yet!

Peace

 

[Axon]

Here's what I do (and you can also do Bomb) when someone gives me sh*t about my hair:

Assfaced shitcock: "Dude, you're losing your hair....hahahahahaha"

Axon: "Pull up your shirt. Let me see your abs."

Assfaced shitcock: "What?"

Axon: "Let me see your flabby gut, you f*****g can of chunky soup."

Assfaced shitcock: "No...uh...."

Or they pull out the chub like they're proud of it.

STFU FAT BOY

 

[BadHairDecade]

A guy I used to work with used to tease my boss about his hair loss. My boss tried your approach Axon saying well at least I don't weigh 300lbs. And the fat guy came back with "well at least I can diet, you'll always be bald". That had to cut like a knife.

Other good come backs are:

"but your wife likes when I rub my bald head on her cookie"

"I may be bald but you're ugly...no treatment for that."

"It all fell out after you showed me a picture of your mom."
Kid, wife, or girlfriend can be used place of mom.

 

[Axon]

Riggggght. I'm sure chubbs could get skinny anytime he wanted to. I woulda said if you had the discipline to lose weight, you would have, fat boy, which makes your condition all the worse - you can control it, I cannot.

 

[Jack ITB]

I find that "f*** YOU" works well, too.

 

[Hinde]

bombscience, i feel you. i've been on Propecia for about 2.5 months and my hair is defecting like a cuban pro-baseball prospect. it'd be hilarious if it weren't so f*****g tragic. my game plan the last couple months has been to play around as much as possible -- get my kicks in and search for a soulmate later.

and i don't ever remember making fun of a bald person. who does that?

f*** them.

 

[Jack ITB]

Finding companionship via prostitution is also another potential way to address this. They usually give me a discount because they like my big peckerhead.
