I have a full hair...nearly long enough to plat...Spokeshave at 83...drinks an occasional soft drink

I read that Black Rice Water promotes hair growth.

As used by French women to treat their armpits.

I assume it attacks both sexes equally, or is it more of a problem with men predominately?

It’s mostly genetics, though.

Check out a bald man’s sons. They’re more likely to be bald like dad than a father with a full mop.

Every time we go out they ask me if I want something to drink. I always say no but then they bring water. I don’t drink the water. The exception is when I go to a brewery. Of course I consider beer to be food. The other thing is I don’t drink with a straw unless I’m in a car or fruit smoothies or milkshakes. And generally speaking I don’t drink sugar soda ever. Cider, seltzer or beer. Fresca with a splash of fruit juice or diet A&W.

It’s his wife’s fault. Funerals (or, as we like to call them, “family reunions”) of my mom’s side relatives are interesting. We cousins remember each other at ten years old, when we all had crew cuts. Now, we wish we could scrape enough together to make a proper crew cut...

Maybe some doctor can transplant palm hair to the bald scalp?

Sean Connery. Such a hottie, with or without the hairpiece.

Yes, I know he’s dead now. And I was so disappointed to learn he was a leftist.

“Further studies instead are needed, to determine exactly what may trigger the effect, they noted”. I was pretty much bald by the time I was 25. I personally blame beer and global warming.

That's what I've heard. If you want to know if you're going to go bald later, look at your uncles on your Mom's side. I was doomed from the get-go, because MPB runs on both sides of my family.

Too late for me, but one thing I've heard if MPB runs in your family, it's a good idea to not wash your hair with shampoo every day. Apparently, it dries out your hair follicles and causes you to loose hair faster. I've seen one person who practiced that and in his case it seemed to work.

Yeah, I wish I knew that 40 years ago too. That's what I get for being so vain about my hair back in the day.
