Poll: Would you (naturally) go bald/grey?

[Kae]

Grey hair looks classy, so I wouldn't care about that, as for being bald, well I wouldn't really mind but no one in my family is bald so it's rather unlikely that I'd go bald.

My hair started going gray in my early 20s. Now, 10 years later, I sport almost totally gray hair. Funny thing is that I only dyed my hair before it started changing color of its own volition ... I don't care about the color, though. Almost all the women I've been with found it more attractive.

Best of all, there's no history of going bald in my family so it can't get any worse.

Seeing how I had inherent my dad hair gene I will go bald (my dad isn't bald per say but he is losing his hair alot these days).

I'm fine with grey hair since my grand uncle got it and he look cool with that hair colour. Being bald on the other hand I think I would wear a wig althought it depend if I look good being bald or not.

If i started going bald i would just shave the rest, better be bald than half bald. As for grey hair, i don't mind, but i would never wear a wig, they just look bad to me, and if it falls off people who saw it would make fun of it for at least one week and i don't think that i have ever seen anyone wearing a wig nor have i seen a place that sells them, probably not very popular in my country.

Well I'm going to go with whatever life gives me. I've been told by my parents and doctors that my hair most likely won't fall out therefore I would go grey and am perfectly okay with that. If I started to loose my hair I would just shave it all off and go full on Agent 47 bald rather than the male pattern baldness of lets say George Costanza.

I kind of look forward to having grey hair; it makes you look dignified. I'd rather not go bald, but when it inevitably happens, wigs and combovers will be pretty far from my mind. I'd rather own my baldness than try to live an obvious lie, and from what I've heard from women, they tend to prefer men who do that, too.

Gray hair > no hair.

Hair is a big part of my self image, and I'd be sad without it. I might go for the look of Dharmas father in Dharma and Greg if I go bald.

....


maybe...


Depressing subject is depressing!

I actually considered dying my hair gray at one point. I think it might be I was watching too much anime at the time but I decided against it. My hair is black naturally and the colour wouldn't work since I'm naturally so dark

I'll never go bald without shaving. Everyone in my direct lineage all the way to at least my great-great grandparents had a full head of hair until their death after a coincidentally long life (the average has been 90). I'll end my life with either blonde or white hair, unless I die young.

Fun fact: your hair will be the same as your mother's father.
...And that's really true, as far as I know o_o.
My hair is pretty much like,a mousey brown/grey right now (I'm 17) so meh, I just wish it'd stay like that haha.

I'm 23. I have a freakishly diverse resume of different kind of haircuts, including rastas and every color you can think of, but I've mainly sported bald to very short hair for the last few years. The first times I shaved my head were partly for the same shock factor and other reasons later described, and later on to disturb my long-term then-girlfriend. Then military made it kind of mandatory, which I didn't have the slightest thing to say against. The last few months I grew hair so it was pretty much normal by any scale, but now I'm begun (again) shaving it once a week.

Bald (or nearly bald since I can't bother to shave it more often than once a week and my hair growth is rather intense) is great for many reasons.
- It's practical. No need to do anything to it, any day.
- Long hair can be really annoying. I used to work out quite heavily during my late teens and evidently I couldn't stand the hair getting sweaty nor getting at all in front of my vision.
- You save a hell of a lot when you never need to go to barber shops
- It's humble. Monks shave their heads. You are not hiding anything.
- It's not usual. Most guys have that 1-2 inch natural hair that they don't bother to do anything with. That tells something about a person.
- Shaving a head has a kind of cleansing effect mentally. If you've done it willingly, you know what I mean. It feels like getting free.
- Older men look younger with shaved heads
- Shaved head makes you look more masculine and highlights you're certain features.
- It can make you look more intimidating in a way, which is a masculine feature
- Several aforementioned things add to -> women like it.

It does require a symmetric, well-proportioned head with good skin to pull it off well though. Luckily I have exactly that

I'm 32 and losing hair on the top of my head. My temples and the area around them have pretty much turned silver. I'd rather go completely grey and lose no hair.

 

[Vault Citizen]

I have very dark hair and my Dad went grey in his thirties so I imagine the same will happen to me. I used to dye my hair black but I didn't think I would dye it when I turned grey, my reason being that while I had colour using dye was just changing it but when I become grey it will be hiding something (it made sense to me at the time).

As for going bald I'd rather not but I've already decided that once I lose a certain ammount of hair I am going to shave it all off. Having no hear will look much better than having hair on the side of my head but not the top or having some hair but not a lot.

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

I'm in my twenties, and balding already.. not uncommon for the military... probably something to do with wearing hats all the time! But anyway... I god damn hate it! I don't like that I am losing my hair, I want to keep it! :/ I like my hair, and am far too young to lose it now!

I would be fine with being grey, as I would just dye the damn thing... so long as it's still there!

 

[floobie]

As a male with long hair, I definitely understand. I really like how I look with long hair, and really do hope I don't go bald. I don't care about going grey, though. I'd prefer if it went white instead of grey, though. That would look so badass.

That said, if I do go bald, I have no intention of covering it up with a wig, or walking around with that "balding" look. Very, very few men can pull it off. I'm quite confident I can't. So, should that happen, I'll either try a hair transplant, or just shave my head. I think I can pull off fully bald, provided I can maintain decent musculature and low body fat. I really don't want to fat and bald... you pretty much automatically look like a Buddah...

 

[Heaven's Guardian]

Luckily I don't have anything to worry about with the bald issue, and my family doesn't seem to go gray at least until our sixties, by which point there is no need to care at all. If it was a concern though, it would suck but I probably wouldn't do anything about it. No wigs ever, and hair dye seems like too much work.

 

[The_Echo]

I would look weird bald--it's a good thing genetics are well in my favor!

I've already got about three silver hairs. If my hair went that color as opposed to the normal grey-ish, I think that would look really cool.

 

[chaosbedlam]

grey hair would suck so as soon as it starts i would die it, however baldness is fine. but i would prefer to be fully bald rather than having balding spots so as soon as it starts im going to shave it all off.
