Men--do you have a hairpiece or would get one?

Yul Brynner was way ahead of his time!

I have never liked the cue ball look. Especially on younger men. Give me a nice, full head of hair every time. That is sexy to me.

Ironic, given the fact my husband started balding in his 20's.

To be fair, we ARE talking seniors here, not young studs and there aren’t many men who can pull off looking good with long hair while older. What usually happens is they get bald on top and let the sides grow long and then put that in a ponytail which doesn’t usually look attractive. Only men with unusually thick hair can pull off wearing their hair long.

Its the people who can’t accept that they are aging and losing their looks who take drastic measures that end up looking a bit odd. People notice things that are odd or out of place and a combover is one of those things. You might as well spray paint your head than wear one of those things and it would be far cheaper.

Anyone who who tries too hard to cover up parts of themselves that they can’t own up to, ends up desperate looking. The old guy with the bald head and man bun still trying to capture his youth or the ex stripper, trying to still look sexy in fishnet stockings and high heels. It’s not an attractive look.

People who accept themselves right where they are in life are attractive.

And while some men can look good in long hair, the majority of them don’t and in my opinion, I think if a man has been losing a lot of his hair on top, he’d look far nicer shaving it all off and buffing that head up to a healthy, shining glow cause it is sexy on most guys. Especially if they wear it with complete confidence.
That’s hot! :yes:

Baldness is not attractive or sexy except with attractive or sexy men, then maybe. If an unattractive or average looking man is bald and not well dressed, then his baldness will not help or make him sexy, cool or attractive. Bald celebrities may be sexy in spite of being bald, not because of it.
For the rest of us, a toupee is no shame. Actors use them all the time. It is easy to say, be yourself, but when your grey hair is thin like mine and is unattractive even after a good haircut, well, then what? Young bald guys look weird and old, to me.
So no man posting uses a hairpiece or will admit to it?

Perhaps we’d have to define attractive so I will rephrase that and say “attractiveness is in the eye of the beholder.


Perhaps you underestimate the power of confidence. That’s an attractive feature.


How a man dresses himself certainly is noteworthy because if he doesn’t care how he looks, then why should I?


Attitude? A persons attitude can be attractive or unattractive and although it’s not a physical feature, it doesn’t go unnoticed.


People are package deals. The people I find most attractive are confident in themselves as they age.


They accept the fact that their hair is greying and or falling out.


They accept the fact that they can’t afford the finest clothes but will make sure to at least wear clean ones.


They accept the fact that they might not have the most attractive face or body but they graciously accept what they do have and offer a smile.


You shouldn’t feel ashamed to wear a toupee either. Many men do. The ones who do so usually wear them due to shame of losing hair, which, in my opinion, is a shame.


In MY OPINION, cause the last time I checked I was allowed to have one, the most attractive men are men who have accepted themselves completely and are quite content with being who they are, with or without hair.

Then by your own rationale, if an unattractive guy gets a toupee, he's still unattractive. Save your money.
 
Having an extended forehead & pattern baldness in the back I sill clung to the little bit of hair I had. Then one day my wife said the day after you retire I want you to get rid of the little bit of hair you have and be my baldy. I agreed.

As for sexy, that is in the eye of the beholder and the only beholder that matters is my wife. Bottom line she is happy & that is all I care about.
 
As a woman, I prefer a bald man to a guy with a hairpiece. I also don't like dyed hair on men (not usually). I have a hefty double standard. I dye my own hair and use a lot of artifice, I just prefer a natural-looking guy with some self-confidence.
 
I've never worried about my thinning hair. I was never a handsome stud anyway. I worked with a guy who bought some stuff in a spray can that looked really crappy. Another guy had poorly done implants. His hairline looked like a row of corn.

William Schatner has a nice hairpiece.

Don
 
No hairpiece for me however, I would definitely consider a head transplant (keeping my brain) from a donor who was younger, better looking, had a full head of hair, better eyesight, hearing and teeth. A head transplant would be a no-brainer...literally.
 
I don't like long hair on Men....My husband never had long hair....At his age he still has hair....Usually get's his hair cut once a month....He has curly hair....My daughter and son both have curly hair....I don't....My son, my grandson, never had long hair....My brother is bald like my Dad.....

:lofl: I will never forget the first time I saw a comb over in the wind. I couldn’t figure out what was flapping around on the guys head and I stood and scared for the longest time. My friends had to elbow me in the ribs to stop me from staring.

I have a good sense of humor and think a lot of stuff is funny, but I seldom laugh out loud. You had me cracking up! I'm also good at visuals and could see the whole thing happening. 😅
 
I had a beautiful girlfriend who got lots of dates. She told me one time this guy asked her to come to his house where he had a pool. Just before he was going to jump in the water he told her something like, "You might as well know about this'' and he yanked off his hairpiece. My friend said he left her shocked and speechless. She said she would have liked him without the hairpiece, but after the shock she received she would never be able to get over it.
 
I don't care about graying hair but I'd hate to have significant baldness. Luckily, I've never had to deal with it.
I don't know if I'd get a hairpiece or what I'd do about it.

I have a picture of my father at 20 and he had a gorgeous head of black hair then, but had the male-pattern baldness before he was 30. He said he was very upset about it. BUT, men have to remember that baldness is very common in males, and once common it's accepted and MOST women don't mind. Better to accept it and pretend to be self-confident than to try to cover it up and be humiliated when the hairpiece detaches from the scalp or somehow escapes. Or, read my post #47 above, she said she would have dated him without a problem if she had met him without the hairpiece, but she could not forget the shocking visual of what he did at the pool.
