‘I’m Young and Almost Completely Bald — What Can I Do?’ — Ask Dr. Harry Fisch

Adam has been losing his hair since he was 19 years old. He’s 29 now and, he’s got a little bit of hair on the sides left, but he’s completely bald on top. What can he do (besides a wig) to help hide his hair loss and how can a bald guy get women?
Dr. Harry Fisch’s advice:

Your hair isn’t coming back. If you were still 19, I could’ve given you some tips to avoid hair loss, but you can’t grow new hair once it’s lost completely. Chemical solutions, like Rogaine, won’t help you re-grow the hair that was once on the top of your head.

You’re worried that a girl isn’t going to like a bald guy. What you’re asking is what you can do to get women.

You see all these tough guys like Bruce Willis and those professional fighters and they’ve all got bald heads. Women like fit and confident men. Women also like men who make a living because they like a guy who can provide security.

So you know what you’ve got to do to get women? Start working out and get fit. Make more money. Gain some confidence. When you approach a woman, smile and look her straight in the eyes. Finally, shave your head completely. No woman is going to be looking at your head, I promise you.
