As you can see from the pics, I'm a going bald Isn't that a blessing My hair loss started at 21, that's when one of my friend noticed thinning at top of my head while spotting me at gym. He pointed out to me and your going bald. At first i was very offended and bit angry and reacted in aggressive manner telling him to f*** off....hehe. To my surprise he wasn't joking. Next day i took a hand mirror and held it on top of my head in front of a wall mirror in the washroom. I noticed small recession but i still didn't wanna believe taht iw as going bald.
Since i was one year old i had a head full of thick hair. You can see that in some of my pics 3-4 years ago...
In this pic my hair looks pretty thick, nice and curly. This is 3 years ago at a party...i was growing my hair long..lol..i know i am drunk

After few months i cut my hair short again and that's when the downfall began...this pic was taken about 1 and half years ago...you can notice some recession...

Since last 6 months my hair loss has just deteriorated. I have lost so much hair that even my parents don't believe it what is happening to me. Ever since my hair loss become noticeable to other people, i have gradually lost confidence, self ego and motivation to do anything. This has been like a poison to me killing me slowly inside. I always took my hair for granted and never thought i would loose hair...actually i never even thought about my hair in that way. I never took in account that my dad is bald this is could and will most definitely happen to me too...i never cared. And today, i sit here dwelling about my hair loss...who would have thought. When ever i feel like sh!t, i come here and i feel like i am among friends.
Did hair loss destroy my chances of finding a pretty female companion. I don't know..i never had a gf to begin with and i don't how girls think at my age...i would say some are mature and some are just down right snobby and stuck up...i never cared for opposite sex but i understand now that in few years i will be getting married and at that point i wonder how my much hair i will loose and how much that will impact my search in finding someone attractive...oh well that's all good...whatever happens happens...
Now for my regimen. I just recently started taking finasteride. I have noticed a lot of shedding since last month i started using Rogain...and shedding is getting worst ever since i started finasteride...oh well, I will keep you guys posted every 3 weeks with pics of my progress.
Guys, any advice, suggestions and comments are welcome..
