The Extreme Option – The Mr. Clean Look
If you think you can pull off the look a really easy way to deal with hair loss is to completely shave your head-The bald look. Now you don’t necessarily have to go full monty with the Mr. Clean look but this look can really look great on some lucky men. If you think you can pull off the fully shaved look you can go for it on a temporary or permanent basis. If you want to eventually have your hair back you can begin treatment via internal or topical medication while you are going the bald route. Hopefully eventually you will be able to achieve regrowth at a restored level of thickness and density.
The Buzz Cut
A Second less extreme option is the shaved head with the length on the top of your head being essentially stubble to 1 inch or slightly more- The Buzz Cut. This is a much less drastic change vs. the razor shaved head and luckily enough is currently in style and a very popular way to minimize the appearance of thin hair. This style tends to blend in more closely with your scalp and so helps to eliminate the appearance of thin or thinning. It is much cleaner than a full head of hair thats thinning or has bald spots – it just looks cleaner. If you go this route, go to your local super store and buy haircut clippers. These run only about $15-$20 and will save you a ton of money in haircuts as this style will likely need to be trimmed weekly.
