So have you got a shaved head , what made you decided to go the whole hog and go for the bald look , what's your routine , how do you shave your head , what gear do you use , did in your view shaving your head make you look older or more aggressive looking , how has having a shaved head worked out for you , was it a big mistake . Is any one else thinking about shaving their head . Any advice on the subject most welcome
I think the shaved look is good.

I started losing my hair in 1995 at a rapid rate. I was shedding like a dog, so I grew my hair long at one length and slicked it back with gel.

But then....voila!

Finesteride hit the market under the name "Propecia." My dermatologist told me to try it if I wanted and I did.

I actually grew hair back and now have a thick head of hair.

Have you tried finesteride? It's sold in 5 mg tabs in LOS under the name "Proscar."

The daily dosage is 1 mg, so take a knife and chop the 5 mg tablet off at 1 mg per day.

The price is reasonable, it's not that expensive.

Studies over the years have shown it works.

If you care, that is. Some guys try finesteride, some don't bother.
