Scaring myself into a hermit life

[Obsidian]

Doesn't mean I am not open for trades. I am sure I would not trade any body part or ten years off my life or friends I have for a lifetime full of hair.

Something like you never earn anywhere past 100 grand is doable in my book.

Even then, why bother thinking about that? It's not like the Devil or Genie is gonna show up offering you that.

Your post makes no sense, also my ~1,000 posts in six years vs. your ~850 in less than three indicates your maths are somewhat in error...

My mistake. I wrote it in English thinking you could understand it.

Do you not read the comment?
I'm lucky if I'm here twice a month this past year.

I barely get on here. Most of my posts were back then. See the difference or do you need further clarification?

No need to be rude with her just because she misinterpreted how you post here. Unless you just like being mean.

Nothing I said was rude. Putting his holier than thou butt back in his place. Enough with the preaching.

You can also choose not to get involved.

Heh, nice deflection your math is still *way* off, even though you were correct that I missed the last part of your post.

Looking through the post log, I've made about 220 posts this year and you've made about 75; hardly equates to spending 100 or even 50 times as much time here does it?

Funny how so many people have to resort to trying to be offensive when their arguments collapse.

Top tip for you HP (you might want to take notes) I'm quite confident about my life and gender; attempts to bring it into question, especially by people like you, usually merely confirm my (and others) opinion on the kind of person you are.

Conversely, it also gives a good insight as to what the real issues in your life are; Your problems in life have very little to do with your hair loss, even if it was the catalyst which triggered your attitude now.

edit: Also, don't try to pretend that you didn't intend to be rude. I already pointed out where you edited your post and added the part questioning my gender. You can say what you like to and about me, but at least have the balls to be sincere about it.

Loosing a leg, no. Loosing a finger or two or a toe.... absolutely.

No UCMAN I wouldn't like to lose a finger or toe for that matter.I would not be able to do things I love like playing instruments or dancing.Although I would be more than willing to lose all my androgenic hair + a two inches of my height to have a NW2 head of hair all my life.

Since you spend so much time here, I mean look at how you jump at your response literally MINUTES after I post. This time I even peeked to see if you were logged on. Which means you sit and wait and then pop in. I'm sorry but that is sad.

In all seriousness, you can look up stats all you want. Bottom line is I come here at this point a couple times a month. Most of my posts are in the same 2 block day or what not. And I would say 80 percent of my posts were before this year, if not more.

So, no I don't spend even remotely the amount of time here that you do. Why? Too busy. Plus, it's the same conversation over and over again from people who aren't bald.

If you are so confident as you claim, you wouldn't be sitting here for so much of your life, just waiting for me to post and respond.

The ironic thing is I don't have problems in life other than being bald. I did years back but I corrected all of that. Only left is being bald and nothing I can do about it. Sorry but nice try.

Thanks UCMan. The ironic thing about that is I was using the expression, rather than being literal but everyone just jumped into a whole discussion about it. But until someone is a full blown NW6, they won't understand how someone who is would want to be a NW3. It's such a step up that it's not even funny. I'm sure you know as well.

I am really struggling to believe you actually think what you're typing is rational and normal behaviour. Are you now that twisted that this is what you really think people do?

That fact that I replied to your post so soon after your reply just means we were on-line at the same time, not exactly the worlds most astounding coincidence. As entertaining as your belief is that I have nothing better to do all day than sit at my computer, just waiting for you to make a post so that I can pounce on it; the actual reason that you didn't see I was on-line is because I have my session set to not show when I'm on-line, simple as that.

You can make any claims you like about how often you come here, but your posts are visible for all to see - search.php?author_id=19577&sr=posts Delude yourself and make all the claims you want that you only come here twice a month, but the facts don't lie.

Finally, how on earth does me visiting this forum reflect on my confidence about my gender? I have absolutely no idea how you make that leap. Just for the record though, the reason I visit here is mainly to try to help people who were in a similar position to the one I was in when I first came here. Is benevolence such an alien concept to you that you had not even considered it?

 

[HatPrisoner91]

Honestly? I can see you want to have a discussion going on forever. Sorry don't have the time. You fail to understand that more than 80 percent of my total posts were pre 2010. If you don't believe me, go look for yourself as I'm sure you have the free time.

As a matter of fact, it is YOU who decided to butt in here. I have/had no interest in speaking with you so go troll elsewhere, thanks.

The only reason things with you go on forever is you keep changing your mind about what you're saying or inventing more things to accuse people of; It's hard to keep up with all the moving goal posts...

So far it's been 100x, 50x, once or twice a month, "vastly", and now 80%; Oh wait, you were speaking metaphorically again right?

Have you ever actually admitted when you've been wrong, or do you always keep trying to pretend you meant something else?

Just looked at your pics. Man you have all your hair. What are you talking about? I would trade two of my fingers (this time I mean in literally) to have as much hair as you do.

im going to be nw6 at around 30 and that's a give (2 and half years from now) and for some reason i highly doubt ill give so much about it as you do, it will suck surely, but the main area where i fear it will hurt the most is with the girls, but honestly, i've never been so bussy in the last year then in my entire life, in a way, im kinda looking forward to this, it wont be an obstacle, rather a challenge in my eyes .... :dunno:

You don't know that. Right now it's all predictions. And FYI, I was a nw6 by 24.

Also, if you are doing so well, why do you spend time on a hair loss website then?

 

[cuebald]

Why don't you get a FUE + BHT megasession HatPrisoner? You should see some of Umar's work, he has done hair transplant's with over 10,000+ body hair grafts. The hair will be coarser than head hair and might not grow as long, but I think you could probably go from NW7 to a conservative NW2.5 with slightly thin crown using just BHT and a few scalp grafts. Bit of toppik and you could go from bald to "just started receding".
I think BHT will only grow to about 5 inches and you might need to use straighteners (I've seen some results where the hair is a bit wirey) but with some treatment I think you could do alright.

Beats spending each day as a NW7 surely

here's a repair Umar did with BHT

if your so misrable and lost all hope, why do YOU spend your time here?

... but i do have an answer for you; like a normal human being i have my ups and down, and sometimes its good to come here where people can relate and understand your situation (regardless of girls, its frustrating to lose your hair so young), in a way i see myself like a member in a community - we all have one thing in common - and sharing experiences, reading other peoples thoughts, give a good word here and there helps alot not only others but myself aswell.
its not black and white like you make it : "only NW6s have a say and can be members".

as a personal note, if you already have a girl that loves you, and your not doing modeling than really your problems are not your bald head my friend... blending in society has nothing to do with hair lose, your self-loathing and bitterness just might be the cause...

So much truth in what you say right there Ori, and it's great to see more positive members on the forum; we have quite a few doom mongers who seem to want to evangelise that life sucks for everyone.

I was nearly completely bald at a very young age myself (early 20's), and you're absolutely correct when you say it's not as black white as some members here would have everyone believe.

For me, the lowest point was the day when my barber told me my hair had become too fine for me to get my regular hairstyle (a flattop back then); I was probably only NW3 with diffuse thinning. After that it didn't really matter to me how much more I lost, I was absolutely gutted (I ended up Norwood 6 or 7, not really sure). That being said, I didn't let it really impact on my life, in fact it didn't even occur to me that it should and I had to somehow be strong to deal with it. It was just one of those stumbling blocks that life sends along and you hop over it and carry on.

You're bang on about the ups and downs too, even now I get down days; heck even millionaires have days when they are grumpy; it's all relative

 

[HatPrisoner91]

Cueball,

I have already met with hair transplant docs about this. I have also reached out to Umar at one point a couple of years ago. The cost of these things are what you wouldn't believe. I would never be able to pay that off. If was guaranteed results, then might be worth the risk and cost, but even then there is no guarantee for a result. Believe me, I researched this thoroughly.

Ori83,

Don't really spend much time here. Too much to. I am here because it's the holidays so had a couple of days to post.

What I'm saying is that only NW6's and those around there have any right to speak about what it's like to actually be "bald". If I am 10 pounds overweight (and never been more), I can't really speak to someone who is 150lbs overweight about what it's like being obese. He/she would be like "get out of here" with that and rightfully so.

However, since this is a hairloss support forum, since my hair loss (if I can even call it loss anymore) bothers me, I think I should be here. If I was "over it" as you claim, then you wouldn't be here. I know I wouldn't be. Heck I didn't come here until I was a NW5 because for the short time I was less bald, it bothered me but not enough to go here.
