I suffer from an extremely rare condition called Male Pattern Baldness. Basically this means that my hairline is receding. The front half of my head has a weird baby fuzz instead of the honey blond locks it used to have. Anyway I started to hate half and half feeling of my head. I took my trusty and possibly rusty bear trimmer, slapped on the biggest guard it has...and mowed. Bristly and velvety now. My whole head feels like a shorthair cat now.

Welcome to the club! I have the same issue, I just look at it as my extremely large brain pushing out the hair to make room for more space ( to fill with useless trivia about toys and comic books). I found I need to keep it really short or it tends to now go all Doc Brown on me. -
I'm getting to the point of really wanting to just shave it REALLY close. I also find I don't have time to make it to the barber as often as I should or want to. Thinking about buying a trimmer and letting the wife do the work from now on. She's willing, and it will only cost the equivalent of 3 haircuts.

According to your description you're not bald... you're just "flocked"

I should address that it is a beard trimmer and alas not a bear trimmer...sigpicComment

Been doing that for years. Don't have a huge balding issue but did it once and liked the maintainence, or lack there of. 2 minutes out of the shower my hair is dry. Almost went totally bald last time I cut it. Wife doesn't like it but I do. She's asked a couple of times to let itgrow back but I don't want to.It's not a doll it's an action figure.Comment

That'd be me. My driver's license picture always comes out like the mug shot of a Mafia leg breaker. I have to renew in a few months, so I think I might smile this time.
When it's really short, I'm like Uncle Fester without the light bulb.Comment

It's funny, but the longer I grow my hair, the balder I look on top.
But if I cut it almost Marine style...everything evens out, and look overall less bald.sigpicComment

Been shaving it to the wood for the last sixteen years.
Embrace the baldness brother there is no fighting the inevitable.“When you say “It’s hard”, it actually means “I’m not strong enough to fight for it”. Stop saying its hard. Think positive!”Comment

I suffer from the more extreme condition Male Pattern Thinning, I don't have "weird baby fuzz", the hair will grow as long as I let it, But it is the same difference. I could go with the Ron Popiel
"Hair in a can" and look even stupidier. I've wore a hat for years and will continue to to so .My Dear ,Sweet Mother insists the reason i'am losing my hair is Because I have worn a hat and if I quit wearing a hat my hair would grow back.
NO . Reality is MPB or MPT is hereited from your Mother or whoever , its genetic. Its in your genes or "jeans", however you want to look at it.
Whatever makes you Happy, I"am to the point where are,MY Hippy Days are over,been there ,done that AND I am moving towards, just shaving iT ALL off.Comment
