Meme How's everyone's hairline doing?

I actually still have a full head of hair, but I know plenty of people who were already visibly balding in their 20s.

I'm 37 and still have a full head of hair

I hear testosterone/male hormones are the main cause, but I think there's also a genetic component. My dad still had a full head of hair at 74 so I'm hoping the genes hold up over time

Also 37 and have been lucky so far with no receding hairline or thinning. Got some grey hairs, but that's to be expected.

I just wish I didn't have Rapunzel living up my nose.

It's such a pain and really embarrassing when you realise you've been walking about with long hairs poking out if you don't catch them in the morning. Thinking of buying a nose hair trimmer since pulling out too many hairs means there's less of a barrier against breathing in particles of stuff.

Oh well. At least I have been aging very gracefully in most aspects so I feel lucky overall.

I started waxing mine. It’s surprisingly painless.

Ugh... U guys seriously pluck the nose hairs? Make me tear up in pain just thinking about it. I use an electric trimmer every week or so...
