i was wondering if im the only bald person who still has an unreal self image
when i'm in my dreams i always have the hair of a me-teenager
does this mean i still cant accept my condition? its been almost 6 years now if i cant get used to it and accept it now when will I??

When I think of a picture of myself I think I look 25(buffed, batchelor), Im 44(not buffed, 30 lbs heavier, two beautiful healthy daughters and a wonderful wife), when I see myself in the mirror I dont look like I do in pictures. I'm glad my head has more hair on it than two years ago, at least I have more hair and less skin exposed to the sun.

hey buddy thanks for sharing at least now i know im not alone
u know the funny thing is i mostly dream of myself with real long hair eventhough i never had it that long even when i had full head of hair
i guess thats what dreams is all aboutn being what u cant be in real life
enjoy your cold beer ;-)

Just remwmber a h/t will never give you a full head of hair.
