Balding, is it happening to you? [#permalink] New post   20 Jan 2017, 20:28
I'm curious to see how many people on here are either bald, have been balding for a while now, are starting to bald, or have no symptoms/signs of hair loss.

A couple of questions if you are showing signs:

1) Did you feel that something specifically caused it? (ie prep for GMAT, Business school interviews, internship etc...)
2) When did it start and how aggressively did it proceed or did it stop after a while?
3) Do you care about it?
4) How are you dealing with it? Shaving head, getting on certain OTC medications or strong prescriptions etc...
5) If you went to B-school of the males in your class what percentage would you say had hair v no hair?

I might not have receding hair, but I got grey hair since I started my professional career :D

I have had plenty of classmates with a variety of hair styles - bald, balding, grey hair, long hair, etc. You won't be alone regardless of the situation. If anything, a receding hair line will show your experience and intellect during recruiting :-)
