How many haircut years do you have left?

[Hey Julian!]

Pops gone be 80 in a year. He rocks a baldy, but his hairline never went away. Older brother got his hairline intact. Never something I've ever had to worry about(thank goodness), but I got homeboys that was receding in high school. Grew up in the Jordan era so I had a baldy and wouldn't have a problem rocking one again if needed. It's just sad to see dudes out here looking like Tory Lanez and his pops with the spray and glue on units. Barbers gotta stop that shit and get ya fucking white pencil off my shit too. Fuck is that about?

full head of hair
just tuned 40
im locced up though

but i have been grey since i was 14

Up to this year, I had locs for 25 years. Started thinning at the crown. I'd always said if baldness was on its way, I would take it all off.

Now I'm one month in with a shaved head and a silver beard. LOTS of positive attention from women.

Yall bihhas is getting old looking because you are beating your dicks too much. Slow down on Fapmanaia and feeling the need to pop one out and lace up a used towel every few hours and you will live a lot longer.

Been cutting my hair since 15… zero gray hairs, hairline still in tact, no signs of balding, hair grows extra fast.. 44 yrs old.. probably got decades more

About the same here. Just shy of 46 ... been doing my own since 15 - 16yo. Hairline's pretty much intact. Can't grow a beard for shit to this day, but the goatee has always been good since 18yo. Got some grays in the goatee and along the temples. Haircut every 2 weeks. Had Remington clippers back in the day, but have used Wahl and Conair ones for the past 20-some years.

Younger brother's hair thinned out in his 20s. He's had the baldie for the past 15 years now.

[LordSinister]

Hairline still there. Started getting gray about 2 years ago. Maybe 20% gray in my beard, 5% in the scalp. Pops kept his Hairline until he passed at 89.

I remember showing up to junior high a few months after turning 13. Some of the older kids in 10th grade were 15 with full beards. And saw a few people who already had gray hair. I started stressing too like - "Genetics / heredity, or school stress? Gdamn ..."

1 of the guys who had the full beard also looked like a potential serial killer in the halls, so I made sure not to get on the shit list of him and his friends. Kept my damn nose clean, but was tall so I looked older ...

Vancouver area - yes - a few of the Sikh guys, and a few white & South American guys.

 

[dtownsfinest]

was thinking the exact same thing lol

i started losing my shit at 23. thats when i began rocking the bald look.
haven't looked back since.

I’m 36 and ain’t lost my shit but man I seen my dad shit and I’m gonna have a 5 head at some point when my shit start receding. I got a funny shape head too man you can’t tell with a cut but I know if I go bald I’m doomed.

 

[WattDogs]

Full goatee at 15. Full beard at 18. Still have my hairline intact to this day.

Started turning grey at 36, in my goatee. Today, about 75% of my beard is grey. I have spreckles of grey showing up in my hair but it seems like every haircut exposes more. Strangely enough, I got grey hairs on my arms, legs, chest & my nuts waaaaaaay before I got them in my hair.

I've always had thinning hair near the middle & front of my head, since I was a kid. It would look thin until my hair grew about an inch, then it was fine. After my surgery, I had two spots on my head that was bald; one on the side & one a little lower from that thinning area on the middle of my head. After recovery, the side one grew back & is fine to this day. The middle one is now thinning, but much like the middle, it grew back normal after about an inch.

Now that I'm 50, that original thinning area is now a half-dollar sized spot. Not really balding, because there is hair there. Strangely enough, someone challenged me to grow my hair out, so I grew my afro back.

Found out a few things. One, my hair will not grow past 3 inches anymore. I used to have the Ice Cube Bop Gun afro, now, I got the homie from Girlfriends afro. Two, all my hair grows back...even that spot.

So, my trick now is to grow my hair out, then cut it down &, keep it a dark ceasar.

The last time I went to the barbers, they put me on to a Dominican hair product that supposedly thickens & helps hair grow back. Been trying that out & I must say, my hair does seem to be thicker & the spot has reduced to about a quarter.

Catch is that it has Minoxodil in it, so if I stop using it, it might make the hair loss progress.

But I reckon I got about 5 years before genetics win out. My pops had the George Jefferson at 38. My brother, who is 7 years old, just started turning grey & doesn't have any of the hair issues I have. You would think the older brother would get dad's bullshit, right?

Until then, I'll keep my dark ceasar.

It’s called living a stress free life.. I’ve said many times on this board people always say I look younger than I am.. babyface nig for life.. people always talk about how they hate I don’t have gray hair..I don’t drink, smoke, use any form of drugs.. drink a shitload of water..don’t drink coffee.. when you do the right things your body rewards you.. if you an old face looking nig that’s on you, all nigs ain’t the same..some dudes know how to make free throws some nigs can’t shoot for shit

Calm down big fella… gray hair ain’t got shit to do with “stress”…my daughter is 8 and got brown hair with gray strands…..I get told I look like I’m in my 20s or early 30s that ain’t no flex to me I don’t give a damn I can’t grow hair on my arms and legs and my beard don’t connect.

I say not one strand or gray hair because I personally know I had any when I brush my hair I just brush but my girl pointed out to me being she can see the top of my head when we laying down….

That will be a negative Playboy. One of black men’s greatest dangerous is prostate cancer. You gotta keep that prostate empty.

[dtownsfinest]

My wife said she liked em cause that’s where she puts her hands when……. Personally I hate it

 

[Bawse Nigguh]

Lost my hairline at 19… Women love my bald head and beard so I’m good

 

[christop]

Cut it all of and rock the baldy and I'm under 40. Might try looking into a transplant someday.

 

[chemist]

Bruh I got them lines like Terry crews in my shit

You got them Pippen head finger waves?

 

[TooTrilla]

I’m calling cap…44 and not one strand of gray?

This is what I was about to say. I got a full head of hair and not a balled spot in sight at 44. But I'm at least 30% gray right now.

 

[chemist]

I had beautiful waves up until I was 40-41, had my barber performing magic tricks for me creating a hairline up until I was about 45 (60 bucks every 2 weeks) then woke up one day and shaved all this shit...now i'm 48 and in the bald head, bearded community...

All them years we was telling you to come home.

I'm with you on the face thing. Most people think I'm in my 30s. But that gray hair shit bruh? That's the devil's work if you have no gray hair in your mid 40s....your lucky. My grays are only noticeable up close. But I fasho got some.

 

[nawlinsn931]

You got them Pippen head finger waves?

Yep

 

[Mt. Yukon]

Any of the fam bald??? Like bald bald, not no gaurd with a clipper bald??? Im trying to get closer but with an electric razor. Thinking Bruan or Norelco type razor. What the fam use??? I dont want the Nestle crunch dome though.

 

[dtownsfinest]

I remember I seen my first strand of gray hair in high school….your have to look hard to see them but I for sure got a few since then…you dye yours or you just let it stay 30 percent?

 

[deputy dawg]

Man....
It's cRaZy-
When that cul-de-sac started showing on my head like my Pops had, I knew what was up.

I cut my own hair thru the fade era and started shaving my head when I didn't have to trim the top of my head anymore.
Now I trim a stubble gray full beard with a Wahl w/ the lowest attachment and shave my head with a cheap Bic; both every other day.

It's too much work with the "just 5 minutes" routine to keep the gray away. I had to do my chest hair & eyebrows too!

Yeah I mean we black I feel like most people in their 30s or 40s probably look younger then they are. That’s what it seems like to me anyway. But the gray for sure came. I’m shocked how many people be thinking I’m in my late 20s or early 30s crazy shit is I feel better now then I did in my late 20s….

 

[dtownsfinest]

On another note as a kid I use to think everybody was old in the 90s because everyone had bald heads……MJ, Jadakiss, DMX, R Kelly….as an adult I found out yall dudes did that shit on purpose. What a time to be alive.

I hate hair makes me sweat to damn much especially playing sports, that’s why I would shave it bald or cut it low…same with facial hair, cut all that shit off, even body hair..drink a bunch of water and let the sweat drip off naturally.. broads love to rub the head, rub the face, even like to lick sweat off your head and face when you cut that shit off..learn that shit when I was young.. I cut the hair off for me but bitches love it

Yeah zero grays on head and face.. people that known me for decades always make jokes like how this nig got the same face from when he was a teen.. this nig never get old.. some older people who knew me all my life jokingly call me same face..even bump into some of my highschool teachers and they be like how the hell you still look the same.. I always laugh and say stress free life and drinks lot of water..plus they all know I don’t do no vices
