A picture is worth a thousand words: http://home.austin.rr.com/lunamayaxoxo/Xoxo%20hair.jpg No, Xoxo didn't get a haircut, just a brushing. :) That's a US quarter coin, for size comparison.

Oh MY! That's a lot of fur! Must be losing the "winter coat".

Good grief. Bet he is cooler tonight. I brushed Jake this afternoon with similar results. A swear I could have made a Wookie.

Just how long has it been since he was brushed? You could knit another cat at this rate.

Beats the late night "spray on" hair ;) My poor LLL is so upset he started balding in his teens. I keep pointing out bald men who are so attractive. He just doesn't get it.

Are we supposed to believe that none of them have so much as a receding hairline? Do they have no concept of how real people in the real world look? Sure a few of them are very well done, but the majority, you can absolutely tell they don't really have a full head of hair and what they are sporting looks flat silly. Makes me wonder, what percentage of real non show biz men at age sixty have a full head of hair. I'm guessing around 10%. Maybe around 20% pretty much bald from the ears up, and the other 70% with a major amount of receding, thinning, etc going on. What do you guys think.

My grandfather, if memory serves, had a nearly full head of hair well into his 70s. OTOH, DH has some serious thinning/receding going at 42.

OTOH, DH has some serious thinning/receding going at 42. Daddy had a full head of hair as well, as did all the men in his family. And they all grayed very late. But that seemed to be a rarity. Part of what I don't get with all the often very bad hairpieces in the entertainment world, it seems to be the men that are concerned with their own hair loss. Women as a rule aren't much put off by balding or thinning hair as long as a man is pleasant looking and well groomed. Jo >> "Shiral" <shiral14@hotmail.com> had some very interesting things to >> say about Re: Xoxo's hair: [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > > Jo My LLL has been bald on top almost since high school. He's very sensitive about not having hair. I missed his "bad rug" days, thank God. I point out attractive men without hair because he seems to think it's impossible to be one. He's so hair envious! Patrick Stewart from the Next Generation Star Trek series. Sean Connery. Pernell Roberts in his post "Bonanza" days on stage as well as in "Trapper John, M.D." Yul Brenner. There definitely are some downright ugly folks but they'd be ugly even with hair. I never thought Telly Savalas was a particularly good looking man, but he had a presence. Bugs me no end that my LLL is so insecure about not having hair. He can have mine... he doesn't have to spend money on shampoo and conditioner. I was told today my hair is beautiful. I said, "Thank you. And thanks to Loreal!" <EBG> Jill >>> "Shiral" <shiral14@hotmail.com> had some very interesting things to >>> say about Re: Xoxo's hair: [quoted text clipped - 43 lines] > > Jill I knew we had work to do the first time I stopped off in the fairly early morning and her now ex husband answered the door wearing a robe - and a baseball cap. He was the sort that insisted on wearing a hat during their wedding. It took us about two years to convince him to give it up, keep what was left shaved off or at least shaved short and forget about it. He was shocked at all the positive feedback he got at work and everywhere. Probably not fair that we are hijacking Victors thread here. You have the sort of thick unruly hair that needs the attention of a good barber about every two weeks don't you Victor? Jo > Probably not fair that we are hijacking Victors thread here.

I get a haircut every 3 weeks, it used to be every 2, but that got to be expensive. :) SignatureVictor M.

My hair started getting really thin right after high school. I guess I'm lucky that it has never bothered me. I've never understood what would drive guys to try things like rugs and plugs and drugs to try to fight hair loss. Dan >> I get a haircut every 3 weeks, it used to be every 2, but that got >> to be expensive. :) [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Dan This reminds me of when we were in Highland, Illinois and went to a barber shop. John wanted a trim. He has "fringe" (he hates that word LOL). This was a very strange shop. Combination barber shop and golf store. The guy gave him a trim, shaved the straggly hair off the top of John's head then fired up a SHOP VAC vac and used it on his head! I nearly fell off my chair! John, of course, had no idea why I was laughing until we walked out the door (I was still laughing). Dude only charged him 2 dollars. Must be to cover the cost of the equipment. :) Jill > lucky that it has never bothered me. I've never understood what would > drive guys to try things like rugs and plugs and drugs to try to fight > hair loss. My dad has two bald areas on the sides of the top, so the very top of his head has hair (albeit thin) which connect to the (thick) hair on the sides of his head. He used to have it relative long, not enough for a comb-over or anything like that, but enough for it to blow in the wind. One time I was visiting I told him he needed a haircut and I cut his hair short. He looked in the mirror and said: you made me bald! I said, dad, nature made you bald, I just gave you a haircut! :) SignatureVictor M.

It's hard to make some men understand that cutting your hair very short (especially on the sides) makes you look *less* bald then having those long strands blowing in the wind! ;> Hugs, CatNipped >>> lucky that it has never bothered me.

Charlie just finally "got it" about twenty years late that long thin hair looks even thinner than short thin hair. Thank God his beloved barber retired and he let someone at the new shop talk him into a shorter cut.

Even before my surgery (which I knew would result in some hair loss because of diminished protein intake) my hair was thinning - it runs in my family.

But then again, I'm a hetero female. Of course I notice other women's bodies, but I leave it up to John to comment on them ;) Jill But Persis Khambatta weighed what...... 125 pounds? =o) Okay, and my friend Kim who's 29 and has slimmed down radically thanks to the nausea of chemo but is now regaining her health, looks okay as a woman of the hairless persuasion. But she did say she didn't recommend stem cell treatments as a beauty regime! She also said she was very glad to see new hair growth.

If I reach for the drawer where the brush is she immediately jumps in my lap and starts purring. She *drools* all over the place when I brush her! Sometimes I wonder how I knew so much about this cat when I'd never had a cat before. When I was buying a litter box and food bowls and it occurred to me I might just have a CAT, I paused and picked up a cat brush. How did I know she'd like to be brushed? She took to it like a duck on water. Jill |
