You've actually given me the confidence to go for it ernie. I cut to NÂș1 yesterday so it'll take a few weeks to get to a good length for cutting.
Should I go for a facial/neck tattoo aswell?
Crew cut seems to be the only thing for balding men. Which is many of us.
I bet mintimperial's mate 60+ stepdad doesn't like a **** at all, with his grey mohican.
To be fair, he doesn't look much more daft to me than all the other similarly aged giffers pootling about in their hideously coloured golf jumpers with trousers pulled up to their chests. Old-person fashion is rather alarming, crazy hairdo or no...
yes and it should obviously say [in a few languages obviously you can never be to PC]Should I go for a facial/neck tattoo aswell?
Who you calling a ****?

No problem with balding here.
In fact my hair is still really quite thick and wiry with a Yugoslavian war criminal wave to it if I were to grow it long...
Think similar to this chap

Guys - embrace your hair, celebrate it, cos you're worth it! There will come a time when it really has to go but hang on to it for as long as you can.
I do however think ponytails on over 60's look a little silly. đ
My curls have well and truly been embraced [s]although sometimes I look as though I've been dragged through a hedge backwards[/s].
Look at TJ - he has a brilliant head of hair. 8)
Edit: Ernie - I seem to remember you having a good covering!

Yeah, but just on my head..............I'm not a bleedin' yeti đ
Actually I had it cut a couple of days ago....... I got the 'Bob Geldof lookalike' comment a couple of weeks back.
OI! Clock nose what the fudge is wrong with Yetis, eh?!
ernie - nowt wrong with BobG hair!
TSY - was in your favourite store today, some bottled beers with 20% off. 8) Just indulging now. đ
I was there today too!
Couple of ciders and now onto a nice bottle of red.
I'm obsessed with the Bury black pudding from the deli counter at the minute, looking forward to breakie already. I was mad about something a minute ago, what was it...
Blade zero once a week with me own clippers. No need for any early morning faffing about, no need for any styling gunk so it feels cleaner and fresher but I mainly like it as it means I don't have to look at me fizzer in the mirror as I preen (this is a good thing).
Right, I've decided. I'm going to do it. I'm going to have a Travis Bickle hair do. I may never get another chance! đ
Don Simon; are you in too?
Actually, I feel a Bullheart fundraising idea coming up here....
Black pudding? O M G! Does iDave know about this??
Just supping London Pride. 8)
Lech Walesa has a magnificent head of hair!
C_G.. I'm not on the iDave diet!! If I was I'm almost certain that black pudding would be on it, it's a super food!!
*wishes had bought beer now*
I bought wine from the special section where they have them displayed all nice and that... la di da!
Don Simon; are you in too?
No worries and Mike Tyson facial tattoo too.
Just to clarify, when I said crew cut, I meant a grade 1 or 2 done with clippers rather than a hair cut with scissors and comb.
Anyway, regarding the mohican at 45, I'm not sure exactly when this was taken, but I reckon I was over 40 at the time.

Blimey, James Nesbitt posts on STW.
Mine's about half way down my back or my chest depending on where you are stood,and makes a great scarf for winter. What's that count as?
"I'm almost certain that black pudding would be on it, it's a super food!!"
It's technically a vegetable, and thus counts as one of your five a day.
Grade 2 all over for the summer. Keep the top a bit longer over the winter, but still needs regular maintenance as my hair goes a bit er bouffant if I let it grow. I have photos of me with long hair as a student where I look like a Crufts semi finalist.
Re earlier posts on flat tops - does anyone remember the combs that they used to use to cut them. They were kind of like an oversize afro comb with a built in spirit level.... I kid you not!
Standard issue honking posho floppy hair here I'm afraid...
Mine started as a French Crop about 10 years ago, three barbers later and I think its pretty much the same style đ
Just done a Google to see what a French Crop is meant to look like and it appears I share George Clooneys taste in hairstyles...

grade 1 all over - apart from the bits where i wish i could grow it that long.
"baldness is natures way of stopping men from having any more crap haircuts"
in my case, this is/was devastatingly true.
ernie_lynch - MemberNot sure what a crew cut is.
It's a pretty dated term which really only refers to the US sailor style whereby the hair was cut to create a "flat top" as is this case :

Not something you see very much these days, although it was popular during the period when the mods made the transition to skinheads.
That's pretty much me only I have darker hair, had the same style since 1982 !!
Haven't cut mine since October 2008.
