I said, "Well, then I guess you don't care that much about being bald." And he can't grow a beard, but I'm hoping that will change, since I've read that some guys here weren't able to grow beards till they were older.
Isn't that a bit insensitive? I mean, for one, rogaine is a lifelong commitment which doesn't work that well for most people and two yeah it is time consuming. The main negative effect of balding can be on the self esteem and nothing is going to keep reminding you of hair loss like having to apply rogaine to your head every day and night, forever..
Also good on him for not giving his money to a company that puts out such offensive advertising.
