with my luck all my hair will fall out when i turn 21

:(

Male pattern baldness is passed down by the mother. Look at your maternal uncles if you want to know what you will look like at their age.

I have no uncles, my grandma had all daughters (3), and so did her mother (who had 5 of the buggers). But my grandma's husband is 70 something, and he still has a full head of hair.

Even though your maternal grandfather doesn't have the gene, it still leaves you with a 1 in 4 chance that you could have the gene from your maternal grandmother, if we assume 50/50 odds of her carrying it. (I don't know the actual statistics on the bald gene, so it might be less) Do you have any maternal great uncles? Any older male maternal cousins? Also, try asking your maternal grandmother if her father or uncles were bald.

My dad's brother is bald, and my mom's father went semi bald in his later years. I'm sure the same will happen to me eventually. Personally, if it ever got to the point where I thought it was looking too thin, I'd probably just shave my head. Shaved heads don't bug me, but the "I'm going bald... but I'm not quite there yet" look does.

edit: oh yeah, her brother is pretty bald too.

Well Rog, if you do go bald, it will only be the semi-baldness on your mom's side. She definetely would have the gene for it, so you have a 50/50 chance of inheriting it and going semi-bald.

Doesnt alot of baldness comes from stress too?

At least my sad life inst too stressful, that or I dont take it seriously enough.

Haha yeah it does actually... in addition to plenty of health problems. And I'm always stressed like crazy, so I'm sure the signs aren't too good. Guess I had better start drinking the hard liquor pronto!

My dad was completely bald, except for bits of hair on the sides of his head. The rest of my family all have nice healthy heads of hair and i'm afraid of going bald :(

Another reason why I detest my father.

I assure you, you won't go bald because of your father. Male pattern baldness doesn't work that way. You will only go bald if your mother gave you bad genes, not your father. Trust me, I know how this stuff works.

Thank god :(.

This is me back in March.


This is me on 11.06.2003.

Future seth :O

Not 11-6-03, silly.

ha ha ha. Nobody in my family that I can recall has even the slightest degree of baldness. Let alone, my hair is thick enough to slightly dull a pair of scisors in one sitting.

:flowingmaneofawesome

I'll fight off Mother Nature's cruel ways as long as I can.

First... the combover.

Second... the incredibly bad quality toupee.

And then... the very, very obvious hairplugs.

I think I need to start wearing brightly colored training suit too. And I'll grow a handlebar mustache to compensate for my lack of hair.

I have curly hair and on top of that, it's fucking RED, so I have to deal with TEH SUCK all over. :(

But still, I'd rather have crappy, nappy red hair than be going bald.

My mother's father was evidently bald, I've only seen a few pictures of him but he was always wearing hats. He died a few years before I was born. I also have no maternal uncles (my mom has three sisters) so I really don't know what's going to happen to my head. :/

You have a 50/50 chance of going bald, Proto. Possibly more, because people with red hair tend to have fewer hairs on their head then people with other hair colors. :( You've also got a higher chance of getting skin cancer, so stock up on sunblock. :(

Who would have thought the genetics unit of my bio course would come in handy? I just took it to fill the science requirement. I never thought I would need to calculate genetic probablities. I guess it wasn't a total waste of time.

My hair is weird. It's straight, but when it grows too long, it starts to curl. It's like I have curly hair, but the curls are all so long that it looks like my hair is completely straight unless it's long.

Also, my hair doesn't grow down when it gets long. It grows up. :(

My hair is short now, but when it's long it gets rather funky. I have great disdain for it.


Some study found that intelligent people have more copper in their hair, so redness does have one plus.

Copper is what makes hair red?

I dunno, but when I let my beard grow, there's always a ton of copper hairs in it. I don't know what they're doing there, but I think they're planning on making an attempt to overthrow the dark facial hairs. War is hell. :tear

My assumption is that copper is one of many reddening factors, but everyone has at least a little bit of it in their hair. Zinc too.

Mine is the same way. But I just shaved it all off :( I guess now I am stupid again :(

Mine's the opposite, my facial hair is more of a brown than red. Darker than the hair on my head in any event.

Me too :eek

Although I couldn't grow a beard if my life depended on it. I'm 25 and I only have to shave twice a week :tear

I'm dressed more contemporary today :<

*Jin, if i ever get money, we are so having a fashion contest ;>

I love that collar. Choj, you fashion plate you. :love

Why thank you :>

I brought a NEW BB gun :) It's a M92F gas blowback :)[/img]

wa! :eek nei hao liang zai

Thanks :) But i forgot to gel my hair back :(

Everyone's favorite sucidial china-man! :o

I hate it when people gel their hair back. Ugh.

Anyway...Rog, why don't you turn this thread into a sticky?

He forgot to use the gel to stick it back. :(

My anus is bleeding :(

Some gel would clot that right up :(

My hair is too thin to stand up so I can't spike it, even with lots of gel. It always ends up falling down and I look like the evil version of Ernest. :eek

oh you'll fit right in :rolleyes

You know, I was just wondering when the hell Thulsa Doom would post a pic.

He's lost weight.

Me,



And for some perspective on my massiveness.

Great. You post two pictures of yourself and I still don't know what you are. >:

Voice of reason is one of the ugliest massive he and or shes I've ever seen :(

I am a he, if i were a she...well i don't think God would allow that.

It's allright being ugly, girls always tell me I am "sweet", which I take to mean "you'll never get laid by me". :tear

Well I'm not going to insult your intelligence and tell you that those pictures are appealing, but your face is rather attractive. If you just lost the extra weight you have you'd look great.

Yeah but that would take effort and apathy is my middle name.

Chojin!!! Stop posting your picture!!!

This is me...W/ short hair, & no eye patch....

Hey Tex, this town ain't big enough for the two of us...

You look like your name should be "Pierre" :>

That's my middle name. Kahljorn Pierre Christ.

Cool beans for your last name!

You look like a red x to me. >: >: :(

YOU LOOK LIKE A PEICE OF SHIT TO ME

*GASP!* You know, words can really hurt! A mean word can hurt as much as a punch or a kick or a pinch! You should be really careful when you talk to make sure you don't hurt other people's feelings ok? ;) ;) ;)

Jixby hurts me when he throws his pillows at me :(
