So it is now a matter of great worry. Am I going bald?Many of my years during my mid to late twenties, it was a case of shaving my head to allow me 10 more minutes in bed in the morning and save on hair gel. It also saved me 10 pounds. The flip side of the coin was the fact I resembled an English football hooligan. After a month or so, girls started to look at me again without spitting at me and a couple of months later still, my hair was of proportionate state to my face again.Now I am married and have haircuts. "you always looked ill" my mum said. "Why it has to be quiet SO short, I don't know"? Well it did and it was and now a few commonly found head hairs on the pillow and in the sink in the morning have me most probably losing more just thinking about it. The ones that aren't grey yet anyway, they'll be around I bet?For over a year now I have been shaving my lower face with a good old fashioned assortment of tools and lotions. Badger hair brush to lather up the block of soap, stainless steel razor and flat blades with a dab of clay compound on the upper quarts of the shaving area. After shaving and rinsing, it's a little sandalwood balm or spearmint balm and a job well done for Sweeney Todd.Going Bald is hereditary in my family. I don't think any of the female side had problems except my Grandma who had alopecia which is hereditary anyway. My Father, Uncle and both Grandfathers all had 'The Spot' so I will just have to wear a hat with glue in it from now on.Mark, as I am not searching for hundreds of little facts and figures about who you are or what you do. Thanks for a great pose to write a bit about. Please feel free to headhunt me!
