Yep.

And, as Santi said, my entire life it's been GIF.

The comb over.

Please, please, if you have friends or family that have one, tell them it doesn’t look good.

I’m watching a young guy on Eggheads who has a terrible one.

Im lucky at nearly 40 I still have my original hairline. But it is thinning a little bit. Only noticeable when the barber is cutting it for now but if it turns into a bald patch I'll shave it all off. There's no point clinging on, it just makes you look older

My hair starting thinning in my late 20's, I Just started shaving it back then, a comb over was never an option.

I feel your pain, I was the same.

I've got it looking half decent now cut short, but I do miss my Mediterranean super stud looks I used to have when I was younger. :(

Oh well, what can you do?

I refuse to get implants and stuff, unless your rich and can easily keep up with the receding from other parts of your head it'll end up looking worse otherwise, receding is progressive so you can't just get it done once and it'll all be solved unless the receding has halted, rather just shave it short and not worry about it.

I'd never get implants either, but I would take a pill or some substance if I knew it worked in helping my hair grow again. However, I'd still shave it short, cause I ain't trying to start having to do my hair every morning, I've been so used to not having to for so long ya know.

I'm thinning a fair bit on top.

I get a clipper cut every time. 2 back and sides and 3 on top.

Surely he must have someone who likes him remotely enough to tell him how bad it looks.

I have one of those peanut clippers that are used for trimming in most cases, but I don't use a guard at all and shave my head every other day. I guess the next step is a straight razor and completely bald, but haven't had to do that yet.

Yeah hopefully I never get to that stage, that's what I really don't want, the bald dome.

As far as the pills are concerned that you mentioned, firstly, your fighting genetics so even if they help again ......... you'd have to keep it up forever.

Secondly and speaking of "keeping it up" a friend of mine tried the tablets and he basically told me this, "On the back there's a warning label showing the side effects, well put it this way, all I got from those pills were the side effects and none of the benefits".

To clarify what that means ........... he can't use his pecker anymore, literally, he's peckerless and hasn't had sex for 5 years.

So errhh, no pills for me thanks.
