I’m 28 (single), been losing hair since I was 16. Been using Propecia for 5 years, but don’t feel it’s really working.
People around me simply have no friggin clue how bad my hairloss really is. I’ve been combing my hair the same way since I was born, hence the combover I’m doing now to hide things doesn’t strike my friends as a mean to hide anything. My close friends keep telling me to switch hairstyle, to cut it shorter, to use gel, to dye it, to enjoy the fact I have hair and do crazy things with it. They simply don’t understand I can’t change it one bit without revealing the truth. I even told one of them (who is bald but shaved his head) I’m suffering hairloss, but he refused to believe, he said I just have some temples problem and it’s nothing to worry about, until I showed him by playing with my hair… then he believed.
I know exactly where I’m heading with this hairloss problem. I’ve seen the pics of my grandfather (father of my mother, who looks exactly like me in the photos of my age), and my time is limited. You can see how my hair looks today in the pic that I attached (no concealers used). I can probably keep this look for another 1-2 years, maybe more (with concealers), but I’m kind of tired of it, tired of the wind ruining it… I don’t want to shave my head because I’ll look ugly.
I thought, since people don’t see me as a bald guy (yet), maybe I can use it to my advantage, and switch to a hair system. The fact that I do have hair should make the switch much easier.
The question is can such a switch be done seamlessly ?, I have an advantage in the fact that I never used gel before on my hair, and never dyed it before, and never styled it before in any way other than how it looks now. If I change to a hair system (with low density at the front hairline), dye my hair, and use gel, people might not suspect a hair system, rather just a big change that happened from dye and gel and new hairstyle.
I don’t have much of a problem to live a life of lies and deceit, I feel like I’m living it now with this annoying combover… at least with a hair system I’ll look better. The question is, assuming I’ll go to great lengths, will I be able to fool 100% of the people, 100% of the time ?, are we there yet with the quality of the hair system to allow such feat ?
