Why do men do this??? John McCain..get rid of the combover. When it gets windy, this huge hunk of hair flies all around , sticks up in the air and looks horrible. Men, you are beautiful. Cut off that hank of hair. Bald shows us you have a lot of testosterone. You are a manly man.
I've seen men that must have 6-8 inches of hair that they wrap around their pate. Then it gets glued down with product and look completely unnatural. Want to look sexier, men? Cut off that chunk of wraparound hair.
This is not meant to offend anyone and is just my opinion.

Sam

Donald Trump is one of the worst!

Sam, I completely agree with you but on the other hand, can you imagine what the men would have to say about us ladies for the sake of looking young & beautiful?
We perm our hair,we color our hair, we relax out hair, we streak our hair, we highlight our hair, just to name a few not to mention the unmentionable things we do to the rest of our bodies in order to look sexy & beautiful???? (just my opinion)! LOL

[samhass]

I agree, Nonie. It's not always pretty on women either, though. I see women with way to much makeup or dressing like they are 16 again. That said, it still doesn't make a combover look good. Tell me one man that you know who looks good with a patewrapper then the Brlycreme or whatever the h you need to hold it in place. Think how freeing it would be for the man to get rid of that thing. And the Donald??? He's just such a pompous arse he thinks he looks good in anything. Furthermore, his bad hair is like his trademark. That doesn't make him any prettier, either.
We can be old and wrinkled and can't help that. Combovers can be helped.
I know many men of a certain age do this. It doesn't mean we don't like you...it's just the hair.

comb-over is about the worst. I dated a fellow who had the c/o and would tell him how terrible it looked. He wouldn't budge from the style; just couldn't take the baldness, I guess. Geez, we even had to ride in the car with the windows always closed so his hair wouldn't fall to one side and look so ugly. Needless to say, that relationship didn't last long other than he was a classmate and brother of a dear friend. My friend understood when I broke it off with him. His personality was like his hair......wierd.

Sam,

Bald can be sexy. Combovers are never, ever sexy. :dontknow: Who do they think they're kidding?

And for Donald Trump, how could he think anyone would ever marry him for anything but his money?? He is such a pompous ass (but a rich one). IMHO.

Good point Sam - I agree completely. My personal forehead was moving north at a rapid rate several years ago when my lovely Linda told me she thought I would look nice in a short haircut. So I had my haircutter use clippers - No. 1.5 on the side and No. 4 on the top, and have never looked back. I love my short white hair now. But come to find out, the real reason that Linda convinced me to change my look was that I had developed a combover without really noticing, and she found a way to "fix" the problem without me even knowing she was doing it! Great gal . . . .

[samhass]

Collie, I just know you look mahvelous, dahling!!!! Way to go lovely Linda!!

Hey Nonie
I don't get the comb over thing either. For one thing how do you get the part to work just over the ear? How come they always part it on the left side? Maybe they think you won't notice or maybe there just blocking the sun or maybe they just don't have a mirror.
Personally one of my nicknames is FLUF ( fat little ugly fu*%#er...er fella) and I just get over it. Look at it this way , they can buy a wig but I'll never be 6'2".

[Mintjulep]

Don't know which is worse, a comb over or a really bad toupee.

I had a funny experience years ago with a male hair client.
When hair transplants first came out, he decided to get a couple of rows along the front to improve his hairline that was just starting to recede.
It was my first experience cutting a hair transplant. Looked pretty good as he wore it down across his forehead. If you lifted it up tho, the plugs looked like doll hair, very obvious. :yikes:
But what happened was his REAL hair continued to recede, so he started developing a bald patch behind the rows of plugs. I had to do a weird haircut to try to hide that.
Of course eventually he had to get more rows, and more rows and more rows................
He may still be getting them........

There is nothing attractive in any way with a c/o. I personally think bald is kinda' cute. Too bad it isn't in style for women or I would be in line having my head shaved..hee! hee!

[njgranny]

Bald is definitely much better. Every time I see Donald Trump, I cringe. He could certainly afford something better.

So many young men are getting their heads shaved today. My granddaughter's boyfriend is 22, and he shaved his head. On a recent cruise, we saw many young men (several from England) who wore the bald head look. One, who sat at a table with us was so gorgeous that my eyes were almost falling out. ha, ha My husband was busy admiring the wife (who was a stunner).

One time an ex-boss of mine got a RED wig. That was the hardest time I ever had not to burst out in laughter when I saw him. He looked like a clown.

My vote is go bald.

[nONIE]

Im not disagreeing with you by any means, the combovers do look positively awful. I think shaving their heads is a much better idea,looks a million times better then the combovers,I just wish bald would come into style for women. Now wouldnt that make our lives easier? :

[samhass]

I think bald men are sexy!!!!!!!!! When they have nice eyes and a well shaped head they should go bald whether they need to or not.

[benj]

I agree that bald looks good on certain people. But after going through what I did with my wife's battle with the big C, I cant see anyone with a bald head without thinking CEMO.
