An emoionally daunting decision...

Crap. My mom only had female siblings and I remember my grandfather with a toupee for most of my lifetime. You're sure it's from the maternal side?

Yup, check the sciencedaily link later on in the thread :P

Bald is beautiful, feels great too. Just make sure the back of your head isnt flat and you may even look better.

People shaving their pubes now a days, hair is bad.

I am 21 and i am bald. For me it is much better to stay bald than maintaining my hair.

i dont think baldness is a real issue for men. you should just dont do 1 thing "try to hide it" - as yoda said: do it or dont - theres no trying - in most cases a bald spot is more or less unhideable - without wearing a wig - but because wering a wig is just - strange at 23 - i would suggest either cutting of (if the skull is okay in his shape - just try) - id rather shave it - it looks more "wanted" than having the spot.

but on the other hand 23 seems a fair bit early to have those problems -.- maybe you should consider a doctor - maybe its some vitamin-shortage or other things. maybe some kind of eating-related problems.

Just shave it off and buy a toupee.
