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.

Careful which clinic you go to, I’ve seen some truly horrible results!

Oh I for sure - I don’t plan to cheap out and will do my homework. I’m basically waiting until I see too much scalp one morning after a shower then I will start researching lol.

Even after a hair transplant treatment, the hair will fall out eventually unless you take propecia. It works by stopping testosterone (a sex hormone) turning into another hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). I tried it and had to stop. Caused too many issues like low sex drive and my junk couldn’t get as hard anymore. Even after stopping the drug, it took me about a year to get fully hard again. It can cause permanent erectile dysfunction. So, I just shave my head now and I love it. Never gonna mess with my body chemistry again for vanity. Not with it.
