Not invisible? Clear? or maybe "see-through?"

That sounds quite quotable, CLKman. I like that.

That sounds good.

The worst thing that could possibly happen is they kick your ars.

The best thing - You guys have a great time together.

Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

I guess it all depends on your tolerances.
Sure you can feel it. Not a real pain though.

But “excruciating”? Not.
They need to try someplace else.

Well then...
If that doesn’t work for you, you can always hire a service to mow for ya.

Problem there though, is that they come pretty early in the morning sometimes.

You’re trying to sleep in after a long night. You wake to the sound of a tiny mower. You look down, and sure enough... he’s mowing away.

Being a balding dude myself, I feel comfortable providing the following harsh advice.

Don't waste your time or money. Instead, work on your self-esteem, and realize the obvious - hair doesn't make the man, and only shallow and irrelevant people judge you on your hair quantity.

Not only is every rug/plant job completely obvious to many, they are thick with irony. Men get them to deal with self-esteem and vanity issues, yet they result in MORE people snickering about you behind your back. They simply look ridiculous, and more importantly, speak volumes about one's insecurities that would otherwise be hidden from public view.

A healthy dose of self-deprecating humor, is a far easier and saner way to deal with the "problem". Not to mention - from a practical standpoint, I love not having long blond locks any more. A decent haircut can be had for free, using clippers with a guide, and a wife to clean up the blind spots. Showers/swimming, result in a quick buff of the head - hell, I haven't even owned a comb for 10 years. Hats stay cleaner longer, since they don't collect hair grease. No more "helmet head" after a motorcycle ride.

Hair is over-rated.

I always felt that if I got bald I would not do comb overs and such...on the other hand, I am not getting bald so I really dont know what I would do for sure.

I think that you should keep drinking. It will continue to sound better that way.

I wonder if drinking beer makes your hair grow.

The quote didn't transfer the attachment but all I can say is: !!!

About the self esteem thing, it's not really so much about that but I do some acting, theater work, training videos, etc. and I really need to look my best. I'd much prefer to grow my hair the way I want it rather than try to depend on PITA wigs all the time.
