Does anyone wish they still had a head of hair?

I wish I would go bald, I got most of my hair despite a minor recession but it's got to be like 75% gray by now, I never look. I started shaving my head mostly to save money sort of. I used to go to this guy in China Town and he did a great job for real cheap, I had a backup guy in the same general area. I stopped going anywhere near that area and found a gal that I liked near where I live but she moved to a salon, some people call it a salon, I call it a clip joint where they let you drink their whiskey but charge you fifty bucks! So I was like screw that, I liked her hugs and all but I could get way more somewhere else for fifty bucks. Anyway so I have been shaving my head for quite some time now and I hate having to do it although it makes me look dashing and dangerous. I wish it would all just fall out, I wouldn't mind if I just when chrome dome, it would save me some trouble at least. Does anyone know how to make your hair fall out for good?

Nope. Pretty much been bald since I was a young lad. Don't miss it at all.

Still got a full head. A bit thinner than before, but all there. Agree it used to be a PITA to get it cut, but the Mrs cuts mine, when she says I need it. Today, in fact, she told me next week. I don't fight it anymore!

Raise your body's level of DHT (Dihydrotestosterone)
Negative Effects of High DHT
1) Male Pattern Baldness
A study found that a group of men with male pattern baldness had higher levels of DHT [35].
Higher levels of DHT were found in blood samples obtained from men with premature baldness.

Waaa...waaa...waaa. Good for you, DaveStill got a full head. A bit thinner than before, but all there. Agree it used to be a PITA to get it cut, but the Mrs cuts mine, when she says I need it. Today, in fact, she told me next week. I don't fight it anymore!
My top\middle\back is gone.

I have folks (who usually dont have much if any hair) ask me why I don't color my gray hair. I usually look at them and snicker a bit when I respond, Well I got hair and I can do whatever I want with it... Then there's that awkward silence from them...
Yep
If Tony comes to Axpona this year I'll get my usual Shirley Temple or poodlehead comments from him but dang if I don't get just a bit jealous the man can style his with a wash rag.

Once you get the Corona Virus, you won't care about your hair....
I started buzzing my head almost a year ago. My crown was becoming bigger. Now I buzz 2x a week to keep it clean.
When I hear people say oh I am going grey, I say I'd take a full head a grey over losing my hair. -
Well, just let your head dry out more and the hair will eventually fall out. The skin will start squeezing the follicles out as it shrinks along with the rest of the head. I'm impressed, though, that your head still has enough length left in the follicles that you have to shave it from time to time as it dries out.
Oh, wait...
...you meant YOUR head....I see.
Nah, man, I don't know how to do that. That's just weird, honestly.Expert Moron Extraordinaire
You're just jealous 'cause the voices don't talk to you! -
you could start tweezing the hair out, it will grow in thinner and might start to eventually not grow back or get it lasered

The good news is, bald heads are all the rage right now. When my dad passed at 84, he still had his hair, and I think I have benefitted from his genes.

It’s thinning,but still there. I cut my own hair. I purchased Wahl clippers. I do everything but the clean up work in the back. The wifey handles that. I keep telling her I’m just going to clip on a #2 and go with a buzz cut. She says not to. Yet. Once it starts to resemble a comb over,that’s when I’m going to buzz it!See my profile for list of gear.

I want my hair to look like Big Earn's in Kingpin!
