My hair is thick. I don't think I'll go bald. Every old person, and young person in my family has really thick hair. I'm also lucky because neither of grandparents have got gray hair and their in their late 80's.

So it looks like I will always have hair and never go bald :)*knocks on wood*

I'm more worried about going gray. I'm only 16 and already have a good amount of gray hair.

My dad was bald (well he has a bald scalp but still has hair on the side of his head) my grandfather on my dad's side was the same. But mother's father is completely bald. I have actually been thinking about trying the bald look, so if it does happen, eh no worries. But my hair tends to grow rather fast. I cut it down to an 1/8 inch and I get a haircut about every 1 1/2 months.

Try Botox. Honestly, I'm serious. Normally I disapprove of such treatment, but it was in the paper today that a US plastic surgeon accidentally found a few years ago when giving his mother (who lost her hair from chemotherapy when being treated for cancer) Botox in her scalp for headaches, that Botox can help hair growth. Basically the cancer victim had headaches when the cancer went into remission after chemotherapy. Her son injected Botox into her scalp as a treatment, and was amazed to notice her hair was growing back despite the fear it was gone forever after chemo. Further tests on volunteers found the same thing and research is now being done into the effects of Botox as a hair growth treatment. So if you go bald, try that. It should work, hopefully :).

My mane thick and long. I lose handfuls every day it seems, but it never thins at all. It's great, except now that summer's here I constantly feel like it's 5000 degrees.

Edit: Also, I thought that it was your mother's mother's hair that was the way to tell. Like, if she started having thinner hair then you would likely lose yours. Could be wrong, though, but you might want to check her situation out.

I will never go bald.
I'm 15, my hair is thick and long so no chance of loosing it soon.
If I do it'll feel like I'm loosing an arm or leg.

Plus I'm female so it'll look a bit odd.
But due to the fact non of my grandparents have lost hair as they aged I think I'm safe.
Yay genetics!

I will probably go white by like 20 or 30, though.

Fucking genetics.
That would be pretty cool to have a full thick head of hair, but it all be white. I think that's whats gonna happen to me, because, now my hair is super thick and curly and so is my dad's still to this day (He's 48 by the way).

I'm at the arse end of 24 and I'm well advanced into my father's condition - I've got a rather splendiphorous widow's peak brewing, although if dad's anything to go by this will continue into my 60's. Individual hairs incredibly thin though - like spider silk! Not sure whether maternal or paternal as they all have widow's peaks. I suppose it's not too bad - there are worse hair lossage scenarios!

For those of you with rear echelon baldness (like a monk, at the crown) and total baldness try a moustache or beard. BUT not if it makes you look like a kiddy fiddler!

Noooo, not another one!
I started noticing grey hair when I was 14. Now I'm 20 and I'd say I've only got 30% brown left. Oh, the horror.

According to quite a few people, that means I'll never go bald - though I doubt there's much truth to that.

Well, I've got a nice thick head of hair still, as have all my relatives. Still, that doesn't stop my father exclaiming that I'm going bald.

Still, I honestly hope I don't go bald. I like my thick hair, and, to boot, I wouldn't be able to pull off the hard man look.

And I'll just dye it if it does go white.
Nah man - you can be a silver fox! (Philip Schofield et al) plus if you develop a really dark tan white hair will make you look seriously cool - like boss hog! :-D

I´m 23 and there´s no sign of me getting bald anytime soon. On the contrary, I have hair to spare. You want some of mine?

However, I´ll most likely go bald as I grow older, but I´m not going to do a thing about it. No matter how you try to hide it, you will get old and wrinkled, and eventually die.

Sadly it's beginning. I'd say it will end up like this within 10-15 years.




Well of course I had to use Cox as an example.

I agree with Max's concept of "Fuck genetics".
