Bald Men.

[Theland]

Isn't it great?
The dreaded wig is virtually extinct, along with the Bobby Charlton comb over, and the egg in the nest has given way to a shaved head.
Has society finally got something right?

[emmie]

don't know, but i am amazed how many men go bald very young.

[rowanwitch]

Definitely, nothing wrong with losing your hair, and being honest about it. Nothing worse than a rug or comb over, they are incredibly aging too

[Theland]

Wigs will be destined for the museum, next to the Dodo.

[Theland]

Spot on Rowan.

[emmie]

i still see men with a syrup, the look isn't a good one.

[Theland]

Still got my hair, but missus says lost my marbles!

[waterboatman]

I doubt it. There will always be people who will want to wear a wig to hide baldness, especially women who are undergoing chemotherapy.

[Theland]

Syrup? Got me there Emmie.

[emmie]

women wear them as you say when they are undergoing chemo, that is understandable, but men, never.

[emmie]

syrup of figs, wig, cockney expression...

[Theland]

Ah yes Boaty.
I appreciate that. Mum wore one.
Was talking about male vanity.

[Theland]

Emmie, gotcha.

[rowanwitch]

Women's wigs are a different thing, they can look really lovely. I had one I wore on bad hair days, walked right past Dave at Bangor station he didn't recognise me

[Cloverjo]

On men wigs can look very dodgy, as we all know. However I don't think all men can get away with a shaved head. Alexander Armstrong is losing his hair, but I can't imagine him with a totally bald bonce. Must be tough for men.

My dad's hair went thin when he was quite young, and a few years ago he started to do a combover. I had to tell him to stop it. He was quite upset, but I had to do it. He looked ridiculous.

My first husband started losing his hair in his late twenties. I bought him some clippers and he just did a number 2 (6mm cut length) all over. Looked great on him. Probably helped him pull Peter the Airline steward...

Donald Trump

[rowanwitch]

Reported for bad languge

[waterboatman]

We called Vera's wig the ferret. :o} I still have it.

[murraymints]

don't know why men bother with toupées etc..they do look daft...but ladies wigs can be very real and lovely...would rather a man be bald than do daft comb overs etc...

[waterboatman]

I agree minty. Vera looked good in hers, you'd never spot it as a ferret!
