I rocked long hair from grade school to my mid 20s.
Then, a lady friend (platonic) sat me down and had a talk with me.
The thinning, now seemingly always greasy, strands of hair was not a good look. Like, don’t visit a playground or I would be arrested on site lol.
So, being a metal head there are two main options, or at least were at the time. Long hair. Or take bare clippers to it.
So, I did.
That first winter fucking suuuucked. Still to this day, I tend to rock a hoody in cold weather, and toss my hood up to cover my head for warmth when outdoors.
Sometimes I let it grow out for about a month before taking clippers to it again, out of sheer laziness. A month of growth, from shaved, isn’t much in the way of hair, but temperature wise it is very noticeable.
It’s not just cosmetic. Hair keeps the heat from escaping the head so quickly and, more importantly, it helps keep the head from getting sunburned and skin cancer.
You’re going to tell me that people are applying Rogaine so they don’t have to apply sunscreen? Hm yeah that is a well thought out argument when Rogaine is 10x more expensive.
No. The male hair loss remedy industry is entirely built around cosmetic vanity, not keeping warm.
I can sit here and tell you how hair can be host to different parasites or impair your vision while driving or get caught and pulled into power tools and is therefore a bad survival trait.
“Bad” genetics?! Damn, that’s a little fucking judgmental for what is ultimately just a cosmetic issue.
PUT ON THE WIG DEGENERATE
Better watch out, when the king of the US government is done with all the queers and chronically ill the baldies are next.
Ugh, finally…
I think people forget that not all populations benifit from more hair
When my head is freezing and I don’t have a hat handy I’m pretty sure that’s not a cosmetic issue.

Same here, I had white boy dreads until one day you realize it looks better to cut it all off then trying to make it look like something it’s not.
Yeah that’s a you forgetting your hat issue. Poor memory due to bad genetics. Damn you have all kinds of problems.
LOL!!!

But let’s not be absolute morons.
It just means you have too much testosterone.
