WHAT IS MPB? HOW IS IT A MENACE? IS BALDNESS CUTE?
Male Pattern Baldness(MPB) is a genetic legacy which results in the characteristic horseshoe pattern of a bald crown with hair on the sides and back of the head. This affects as many as 40 percent of all men in their forties, 50 percent of men in their fifties and 60 percent of men in their sixties.
I have been told over and over again that I will be bald and that feeling used to make me feel less sexy, until I noticed that my favorite 007 actor, Sean Connery is bald and he is still considered the Sexiest Man Alive by People Magazine. (at one time though) What about Jason Statham? He continues to bring sexy to the word baldmen.
Good news all my bald brothers. Remedies are available which helps in some ways and makes the baldness not too noticeable. But the final mostly efficient remedy is operations such as hair lift and scalp reductions, in which sections of bald scalp are actually removed and replaced with still viable hair.
Before opting for this big-deal treatment, lets help you try these less toxic options.
- Grow a beard. Losing your hair is hard and right now, it feels hard on me knowing that one of these days, i may be running around with a horseshoe patterned head. So when you happen on the bald streets, grow a beard so that it will help draw attention away from the top of your head and onto your face. You can try a moustache, a goatee or even a neat beard.
- Keep it short and sweet. It is pretty tempting to grow your hair, especially when you are balding. So try your best to resist the urge of trying to grow your hair in a bid to use it to cover the bald area, it won't work. Short hair all around looks neater and is more apt to to be in proportion with your face.
- Try a weave. If you are open to it, it may be worth your while to try a hair weave. The weave may be natural or synthetic hair and it will sure give a feel of a full hair.
- Buy a hat. Getting a bowler will add a stylish feel to your balding head. You may choose a different type of hat from some other guys, but make sure to stick with one that will give you a good feel. I particularly like James Spader's character on The Blacklist, Raymond "Red' Reddington. He has his hat at every time and it made being bald not an issue as he looked more dashing with the hat than without it. So pick your own heart too. It could be a bowler, a kangol or even a baseball cap, just get a hat.
- Dab on some liquid hair. Makeup artist will be able to get you this particular wonder. Just as they are able to completely transform someone into a monster, they will be able to help transform your baldness into a full blown hair day.This will work when you still have some hair left and then you dab some on it and then simply comb the available hair over it.
- Flaunt it. I think this is just what about every bald men should do. Shine that noble crown and strut your stuff because baldness and virility are firmly linked in the minds of many women. You've paid your male dues by living to the extent where you lose your hair, and now it is time for you to pay your dues to the bald-headed men of the world.
Losing your hair is not something any man would want to witness. I am presently still rocking my full hair but I am always reminded every time I look in the mirror. But then it may not be too bald I mean bad to be bald. You can decide to get a call sign sign.
One other way to manage MPB is to in your early years grow your hair naturally and avoid too much shampoo because according to research, Frequent shampooing reduces surface sebum, which contains high levels testosterone. Testosterone converts to DHT and it reenters and accelerates hair loss in people from families with a history of male pattern baldness.
