So I'm practically bald now

[s.a.f]

Theres a guy at work with similar diffuse to you except to ad even more insult he grows it slightly longer and spikes it with gel and although you can clearly see his entire scalp nobody thinks of him as bald/balding because he still has a low hairline and yet someone who has thick density but recession thats NW3 or above is instantly classed as going bald.

GHG, yes you have visible thinning, but how noticable is it outside of a hairloss forum? Theres hairloss and then theres baldness and theres a big difference between the two.

if i saw this pic, and was not looking for hairloss, i would not think this person was going bald at all.

That's what I'm saying. Using thinning, ok. Saying "i am practically bald" is offensive to people who are bald. It's like me telling people who are quadrapalegic (did i spell that right?) that I am "almost paralyzed" because I have some back pain.

I got a shorter haircut today. I look really bad with it and I'm 100% sure I would look better, if I was bald. I need long hair or a bald head.

Pro evo fukin rules!

 

[Obsidian]

That is not bald. I have had that as a young kid, you luckily also have light colored hair so it is not a heavy contrast between your hair and scalp color.

Shall we compare?

What I mean is that, most of the people here think DB isn't balding. I think he is thinning, but that's just me.

 

[Dario]

If we are already comparing...

Your hair vs. mine

...and so far no one hasn't told me that I'm balding!!!

So, shut up...and play PES6

You won't be saying that if you go bald.

 

[uncomfortable man]

Why don't we just compare shlongs while were at it? :gay:

 

[Obsidian]

Seriously GHG look at this and then look at your picture, I bet you if you compared both pictures to a person on the street neither one would say they are balding.

 

[ghg]

McGregor's pic was took in bright studio lighting with a proper camera. Not in a dim lighting with a camera that doesn't have a flash.

Why don't we just compare shlongs while were at it? :gay:

You'd love that wouldn't you?

 

[Dario]

Actually I would say that it was brighter in your room. It's natural light, bouncing off the walls and hitting your hair from each side.

Seriously, I think that you are over reacting.

 

[Bald Dave]

Hey GHG, you're not balding at all mate! I wish I could have your hairline. Have you ever considered growing it longer?

 

[ghg]

Dave, no it can't be grown longer, it will look even more ridiculous than it does now. I say no-no to the bozo the clown look. And for the last time: yes my hairline is intact, it hasn't receded one inch. Yes I do know that. I'm thinning, not receding.

 

[DoctorHouse]

GHG, I am curious what you think. Do you think someone can have thinning but not balding? Or do you consider them the same thing?

 

[s.a.f]

Unfortunatley there are some people on here who consider this to be an example of someone with m.p.b. :jackit:

No you said "im practically bald now".

I mean CMON!

Where did I say that? I said that I'm not receding but only thinning, not that I'm not balding. I am balding, be sure of that.

No you said "im practically bald now".

Did I contradict myself at some point? As a 25 yr old in a situation where I can't grow my hair at all because it's too thin and whispy on top, I do consider myself practically bald. If you don't agree, that's fine with me. I know my own situation best. My current situation means without a doubt that I'll be completely bald way before I hit 30. Things don't even need speeding up, with the current speed I probably have 1 year with hair of any kind. Considering that the meds don't work for me.

 

[uncomfortable man]

Are you taking any meds? I don't think you can handle a shed.
