Receding hair line!!!
OMG-WTF-HOLY CRAP!!!!
My hairline is now visibly receding, it's retreating as if napoleon was advancing or something, and this does not make me comfortable. Now here's the rub, I'm almost seven feet tall, and this has lead to many many mishaps with door jambs. The top of my head literaly has a ridge, like a mountain range, but small. I really don't want to ever see this ridge, but at this rate (24 yrs old), I will before my 50th birthday! How can I not suck quite so badly in this specific way, help me OOT, the children will laugh, and I will cry, and then I will have my revenge, and then they will call me "Inmate". I have a friend who is 22, and his hairline has receded like halfway, I'm not trying to go there. What is the definitive treatment, should I just kill myself? Thanks OOT Cam |

Thread about hair loss
Skunkworks is pretty key in this thread, he gives some real good advice about stuff to buy, or what to do in general if you don't want to go bald anytime soon. |

Re: Receding hair line!!!
the FDA has approved some new laser comb that's supposed to work wonders - I suspect by stimulating blood flow to the follicles, the absence of which causes hair to grow thinner, eventually falling out -
hey, what's $500 to a poker player [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] and since neither of the other two treatments approved by the FDA (Rogaine/Propecia) are encouraged for the front of the hairline, it might be your best bet - that other thread is 3 months old - I don't think it covers this new technological piece of equipment, though it has been around for awhile without FDA approval. I'm getting a little concerned myself - might buy one - if so I'll give you guys a trip report. rb |

Re: Receding hair line!!!
As was mentioned in the other thread, go with a rogaine/propecia combo. They actually are effective against receding hairlines, but all of the FDA approval studies were on hairloss on the crown, so they can't claim effectiveness in the front.

Re: Receding hair line!!!
depends if it's male pattern baldness or not. If not, find some aids like above. If it is, there's not so much you can do. That seems to be the concensus amongst the med community in the UK.
I'm visibly receding too (MPB), hairstylists recommend thinning out the thick areas to create a level coverage then using some clay to "thicken out" a little bit. |

Re: Receding hair line!!!
If you're 7 feet tall no one will ever see the top of your head, you could have a topknot and no one would care.

Re: Receding hair line!!!
I'm almost 7 feet, and people do see my hairline, and you'd be suprised how many times I must reach forward or bend over in a day's period. Wondeful Avatar by the way, it is eternally mesmerizing.
