Bald is beautiful!!
Uh oh…
Consumer Reports has reported that a recent study has shown that the miracle hair loss treatments that insecure (aka ALL) men have been clamoring over for the past few years may not be so effective…
(I know!!, they CAN’T be serious!!–I know…, shameless way to use the name of the blog, deal with it–)
In a study of 8,042 participants whose hair loss wasn’t related to chemotherapy or illness, the most effective treatment was the prescription pill Propecia – though just 27 percent of men deemed the drug very effective. Rogaine can be used by both sexes with the possible not-so-sexy side effect of facial hair growth for women, though the study showed it was mainly ineffective and better suited to people with very recent hair loss.
27% for the prescription?…So you’re telling me there’s a chance! Fantastic! I’m interested in this facial hair growth on women…could this be a way for more attractive women to break into the HIGHLY competitive world of featured carnival Bearded Ladies?! Maybe you could get a job as a ZZ Top dancer?! The chances for career growth (pun!) are limitless!
How about hair transplant?
Expensive hair transplant surgery which can cost upwards of a staggering $10,000 per job, yet often needs to be repeated and carries the risk of infection, a long recovery, scarring and patchy hair growth.
Eh…ok. So $10,000 might not get you great hair like that Twilight girl, er…boy but you might be able to get a job as a Rodeo Clown…
I’m confused though…if commercial’s are lying to me, doctors can’t help and I can’t even BUY my way into great looks and slowed aging, what CAN I do?
At the end of the day, the best remedy may actually be acceptance. Those surveyed pointed out actual benefits of being bald: you won’t get hat head, you won’t waste time grooming your hair, and you’ll save lots of money on shampoo, conditioner, gels, mouse, hair dryers and other haircare products
Brilliant!!! On that note, let’s look at some celebrities that have been able to embrace their baldness and make it into something beautiful!!
Uncle Fester!!!
Gollum!!! (Someone get this guy a breath mint)
Mr Burns!! (at least he was rich!)
and finally, the piece de resistance!! (wee wee)
This guy!!! (hey….you–pointing finger in gun-type gesture while winking)
On Second thought….maybe we (that’s right, I’m balding too) should shoot for that 27%..Now where’s my doctor’s number…
Too funny. I just grin and deal with it.
