Research tells that after obesity, baldness is the biggest fear that men have related to health issues. Men are often affected by male pattern baldness in some form, at a certain point in their lives. Male pattern baldness can be spotted when the loss of hair, is especially from the side of the forehead. This is also called receding hairline. Androgenic alopecia is also common pattern baldness; there is a bald patch often found on the top of the head.

Two types of drugs used for treatment of going bald. These are Minoxidil (or Rogaine) and Finasteride (called Propecia). A hair transplant is yet another option, but requires a lot of money. Various tests have been done to find out if there is any way to prevent male pattern baldness, but none have revealed any type of solution so far.

Self-esteem is usually affected in men as they consider their balding as an unattractive trait. This is because men tend to believe that hair is necessary for attractiveness. This causes other complications like psychological stress, depression and anxiety, which usually leads to a complete change in the personality of the person.

For women, hair is not a factor that defines a man. It’s the personality that matters the most and it seems as if bald men seem to lack that personality because of their obsession with their hair recommending their looks. This, however, is not what attracts a woman.

Men can be equally attractive, bald, as they are when they have thick, full hair. Stars such as Bruce Willis, Vin Diesel, Chris Daughtry and Pitbull are the classic examples of such men. They’re bald and yet they tend to have a sex appeal which attracts women towards them.

Bald men just need to have a personality that dazzles their women because hair does not do that magic. Balding, for men, is not nuisance if you know how to carry it off! Usually, women prefer completely shaved heads as it tends to be more appealing than a patch of bald hair with thick hair surrounding it.

Also, covering your balding head with a toupee or wig can be a disaster as the fake look is very unappealing and is a huge turn off for women. Some women seem to have a knack for bald men so, rest assured, you have nothing to fear if you’re bald.

However, attributes such as a sense of humor, confident personality, acceptance of self, great eyes, good self esteem and affection are the more attractive traits in men. It’s the personality that matters the most, not the hair! Women aren’t that hard to understand!
