I mean for crying out loud, it's 2007, and we still don't have an effective treatment for hairloss.
And WHY on earth are hair transplants SO expensive?
Rogaine = $20-$40
Propecia = $30ish (with insurance)
Hair Transplant = $5,000-$10,000
It's amazing that the ONLY "cure" for hair loss is exponentially higher than the "Treatments."
Seriously, it all seems like a big joke, and the joke's on us. [/list]
Who in their god damn right mind, except the most vain and self conscious ( which is most people) would waste $10G+ on a hair transplant, which takes monthssssssssss to show, and then you have to go back for touchups most likely for the rest of your life, when you can spend that money on other things.
Also, whats so wrong with being bald? I find it sad that people would rather twitch, get horrible side effects and literally THROW money away, rather than have their scalp show.
Are we THAT brainwashed as a culture?
Yep, we are. and it's sad.
I'm starting to not care anymore, and focus on more important things. AND YES< there ARE more important things than battling HAIR LOSS.
Look at Howie Mandell from Deal or No Deal. Bald, and pretty good looking for an older guy.
Bruce Willis is fine as well.
and all the other guys out there.
Britney Spears even shaved it off, and she's the epitome of shallow and money in Hollywood out of all places.
ANd then you have us, mostly average joes, some below, some above, and we act like we're god's gift to society and we must save our precious hair. ( and will go through any lengths).
What's with all the obsession?
And trust me guys, some of you are ugly and even if you had the most perfect hair transplant, you'd probably need to get a new hobby, let's say the facial surgery forum, and obsess about how your face isnt ideal enough for society.
WE all need to get over this. I admire the forum and all the help there is out there, but it's gone beyond that. People are out there torturing themselves and considering suicide because their damn hair sucks. ANd the funny part is, they're so obsessed with their hair that they don't even realize that their face and attitude suck too.
Where is it going to end? I am against this whole "I hate myself and my life would be SO much better with better hair."
You know what, it really won't. Maybe you're that unlucky guy who WILL look like $#iT with a bad hairline, but most of you are NOT actors or models or anywhere CLOSE To that industry, so why the hell do you care so much? Because your friends/coworkers and random strangers are that shallow and it gets to you?
Get a life! enough is enough. MOST of you need to go to a shrink WAY before you even consider a hair treatment or a transplant.
"BUT by the time i go see a shrink, and wrestle the options it may be too laaaaaaate! aaaaaaaaaaah!" ---- common thought.
It's sick. I mean, if you guys can't even see how this forum and most people turned this into an obsessive compulsive disorder then please relook.
Something seriously needs to get done for the psyche of the common hairloss victim, because it is that that pushes them to spend ridiculous amounts of time, research, money, and torture dedicated to this "hobby" or whatever you want to call it.
And guess what? There are many other forums for many other conditions out there as well. It's fine when people want help, but when it becomes a 24/7 obsession, something's wrong.
Most of you need therapy! (and believe me, you'd benefit from that, and perhaps for some of you, facial reconstructive surgery would go a LONG way further, than your silly hair).
Seroiusly, go up to a HOT girl (or guy) and ask them, if they'd rather have sex with you if you had a great body and a killer face, OR if you look the way you do now (probably less than flattering and homely) but you had a full head of hair?
Hair is NOT the most important part of a person. It is YOU that makes it so. The hairloss suffferer, turned psychotic mess, self-convinced that this is a HUGE problem.
I'm also sick of seeing before/after pics of the most MINISCULE results which you "people" praise as miracles.
This sickness has got to be checked, and I encourage all the forum moderators or at least the higher ups to at least consider how this could be harmful for the mental health of people.
I'm sure that your mentalities are so screwed up that if you all tomorrow woke up with a full head of hair, you'd find something else you didn't like and go b**ch about that. Maybe your car, or your house, or your nose, or your clothes, and believe me, YOU WOULD.
Then it would be, WHY CANT THEY COME UP WITH A CUUUUURE FOR this or that.
You're all future michael jackson's in the making, only you won't be screwing with your face, you'd have hair growing out of god knows where on your body.
If I was your mom or dad, and you all were my kids, I would smack you all upside the head and say, join sports, join a debate team, GET A F*CKING life, and stop spending all your time, effort and MONEY on HAIR.
THis is a disease in itself, seriously.
Most of you are like drug addicts, and no one can convince you that you have a drug problem.
Your problem is your addiction to wanting better hair, and no one can make you see how compulsive many of you are.
SOME OF YOU COUNT YOUR HAIRS THAT FELL OUT IN THE SHOWER! Is that necessary!?!??!?!
get a f*****g life. do you also count the number of moles onn your body, or the number of skin imperfections or whatever?
Dear lord, I bet if I placed a picture in front of you, you'd blow it up and start counting the pixels!.
lolol
siccccccccccck. sick people.
A good lesson I learned is that no one out there really gives a f*** about you, let alone your damn hair. except maybe your close friends/family and the ultra vain.
life has enough problems and what not.
MOST people don't care, and the ones that do are either vain, or self consoius freaks themselves.
