I like Mason's ("67 guy") ice cream hairstyle/haircut. I thought that was called Wings but ice cream hair was new to me Maybe a little more understated/less flare-outey but thr general form I am envious of
Very fun and elegant in its own way. Super quirky |

I've been bald on top since my 20s, and I'm in my 60s now. I've kept it very short since then (#2 all over). It might be nice not to worry about a scalp burn, but at this point I don't think I'd grow it out if I had hair - I'd still do the #2. It's so much easier to deal with. I'm actually completely fine with being bald, too. |

But if you could magicall_ have anything, in your heart of hearts, did you always want a #2 as a kid When you still had the good stuff |

I would have my long hair back. I'm growing it back out now, but my hair used to be about three feet long. Took a long time to get to that point. |

I've been balding for a few years now, so I've been just keeping my hair as short as possible with minimum effort (basically giving myself a buzz cut every few weeks). If I could just stop hair on my head from growing back altogether, it would save a lot of hassle. Oh, and my armpits too, while I'm at it. |

You actually can, though, with the armpits. Get an IPL like the Braun Silk I aftualy dont mind mine, I appreciate their sweat wicking function in that one case (nowhere else do i have that scceptance lol) altho at any given time it could fairly be described as "needing a good trim" Yet to "get into" maintenance trimming. Now that I'm on the subject of IPL I think I'll bust out my old machine for the next 12 weeks, only lasted like 4-6 last time but I have my shit better together, nowzers |

Super-glue mohawk. It's a one time style for that hair, and would be a bitch to sleep with, but I would enjoy the shit out of it. |

Same buzz cut / grown-out buzz cut as I do now. I like low maintenance. |

Tbh imo frfr that is not a haircut but male adolescent without a haircut for 2-3 months. At least that’s why/how I had this haircut in my time of relative youth. |

I think its a tad more intentional if even only insofar as the wearing a hat specifically because it has that easy effect |

What I wanted was a kid and what I want now are very different, and that's really my point. As a teen, I wore my hair somewhat long and that's what I wanted. I wouldn't have given it up, and going bald was really painful. But after the decades of being a bald guy, I honestly prefer it over that. It's so much easier to deal with, and I even think the look suits me. |

Nice, I'm glad it all balanced out in the end. I like when people are able to find and exploit the value in obstacles rather then be tyrannized by the things they cant control |

I've told a lot of people that going bald is a horrendous torture, but being bald is completely fine. If it happened all at one and you woke up bald, it would be a terrible day but then you'd adjust and be fine. Instead it happens little by little. You keep having to adjust to a new reality every week/month/year. The you that you see in the mirror doesn't match your self image, and that's really disconcerting. Once it levels off, and your self image matches, it's fine. |

Did you fight it by taking like dutasteride and minoxidil or did you passively let it take its course |

My dad was bald, so I knew there was a good chance it would happen to me. When I realized that as a teen, I found myself looking at bald guys and what looked good or bad. Comb-overs look bad. Bald on top with long hair looks bad. My dad wore a toupee (a good one), and it actually looked fine, but he was tied to it; he never wanted anyone to see him without it, and he had to wear the hair hat even when it was hot. The rogain type stuff was new when I was going bald, but I didn't trust a brand new drug, and I read that you had to take it forever or you'd lose whatever gains it provided. In the end I decided that the only things that looked good were cutting it short or shaving it off. I tried shaving it once and didn't think it suited me, so I've just kept it short. Admittedly I had a period early on where I should have cut it shorter but was still holding on to a an old look even though it wasn't working. |

If you were offered a free all-expense paid trip to Turkey for a hair transplant, would you do it at this point? |

Nope, I'm happy the way it is, and the transplants often look off to me. |

After almost twenty years with long hair, I recently started shaving my head because I started to go bald... I actually get a lot of compliments for it, but I would really love to have my long hair back with the hair growth I had in my twenties. |
