to bald.. or not to bald...

everyday in the newspaper i see ads regarding hair loss ,and getiing back your hair again..
all of you must have seen those the ones which they show a before and after picture of a guy

now i am balding and i have accepted it and have no problem about that

it was going to happen any way ,my dad lost his hair when he was around 28 my grand father too was bald (i never saw him with hair) and according to my family seniors what i have heard my great grandfather was born bald and he never had hair on his head

well the other thing i have learned is you can stop your hair loss but, most of the times you cannot grow new hair when you have lost it (from the roots) (ofcorse there is hair transplant and all those fundoo operations)but thats not important

now the funny part is how your family(parents) takes it and how your close realtives react to it, its almost the opposite reaction.

family...

mom now she really feels bad for you and trys to convince you to use different hair oils in her own way. She dosent really say straight to you that your balding but, will say try this oil this might give you more cooling effect or like make your hair shinnier or even say you look good to get your spirits higher (as if thts gonna make your hair grow back)

dad now he dosent care at all because he himself is bald , he knows it was going to happen any way . like my dad he calls me taklu

sister/brother they the hell dont care about your hair they are more worried of them selves and thier hair

relatives

aunts now they are more straight forward and will say straight to your face you are balding and if its a get to-gether with some more family members they will make sure every one hears it when they say it ,and they make sure that they discuss it at that time yes at that time as if its an issue to debate(loudly how silky was your hair and now look how it is) ... now if this dosent really irritate you then they get out the trump card that is so now tell us the name of the girl you are seeing (in front of your parents)....what ? ok now how are both these things related..

uncles they are the sober guys, they take you to the side and beat around the bush and say why dont you try this and that but never straight away tell you ,you are balding, maybe because they feel your hair loss as thier own

cousins they are more intrested in that girl which your aunt mentioned

well after this you have is two options

1) you go do some treatment (which may or may not work) but most of the times fastens hair loss

2)accept you are balding (like me) and welcome the change in your life

so till then people
