What I did was to cut it short initially, get used to it, and then cut it even shorter. I'm now using a Number 5 at the top, 1-2 at the sides. And if it gets worse, I will have go down to 3.

i shave it makes the hair look thicker and the recession is not so Noticeable, buy yours self a pair of clippers and go throught the grades till you find a length your happy with

I buzz my head with a #1 or #2 setting. It definitely makes the thinning less noticeable. I've gotten mixed reactions from people. Some people say it looks good, and other say I look scary or like a skinhead, etc. But you just have to make the best of it. Eventually, I'll probably have to shave it completely, but for now I can still keep a small amount of stubble.

I definitely reccommend buzzing or shaving though, because even though I still think about my hairloss a lot, I'm not constantly seeing hairs fall out or trying to cover my thinning scalp. It's much easier this way.
