I started losing my hair when I was a teenager, so I’ve been bald for most of my life. I’ve been shaving my head for decades because it’s the only way my head and face don’t look absurd. I’m totally used to it, and long ago accepted that I’d never have hair on my head again.

But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want my hair back.

If this turns out to be legit and works on most people, there could be a worldwide explosion of self-esteem in adults.

As someone that has also been bald since I was a teenager, I've also gotten used to it. I've accepted my fate and I'm fine with being bald.

But at the same time do you ever have those dreams where you have hair again and get super excited about it? Like straight up Jesus hair.

I had postcard white-guy Jesus hair, hanging to the middle of my back, straight and reddish blond. A beard too. I went bald in my mid-40s and now what's left around the fringes is white. People who see pictures of me from back in the day don't recognize me.

100%

I’ve had dreams where my long locks were dramatically blowing in the wind, only to wake up and run my hands through my…well shit, that’s just my scalp.

I just wish I had done something absurd like sport a bright pink mohawk at some point before going bald 😂
