Your mother's father's hair vs. Your hair

SamEyeAm: Jun 6, 2013; Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

My mother's father had lost most of his hair by the time he was 30.

I'm 32 and still rockin' a full head of hair, but with a widow's peak that's been slowly receeding since high school.

I don't want to end up like my grandpa... :stat:

My grandad had thin white hair when he died at 86. I'm only 85 and my hair isn't white. Hmmm

Shows that I still have a heart

The only picture I have of my biological father is of him looking like Rumours era Lindsey Buckingham which is probably why I have really temperamental hair.

Also, I think my dad might be Lindsey Buckingham.

Choco1980: Feb 22, 2013; I fell in love with a Video Nasty

My mother's father had one of those deals where he had it almost non-existent above his ears and bald everywhere else, and wore it well and handsomely by his 60's. My older brother started catching this and now shaves his head. Oddly I seem to instead have inherited my father's and his father's hair which isn't how it's supposed to work--which is a high as gently caress forehead (my son has this too) and then a thinned out nearly bald patch in the back top region. Odd.

My sister has been grey since her teens. I only have a small patch of grey if I let my beard grow out

dentist toy box: Oct 9, 2012; There's a haint in the foothills of NC; the haint of the #3 chevy. The rich have formed a holy alliance to exorcise it but they'll never fucking catch him.

Still had a full head of hair when he died in his 70s, and I'm still going strong.

My hair is a very yellow blonde which would look good on a girl, but it's superfine like baby hair and I can't do anything with it. It's like:

1. Army man Shave
2. Blonde guy who plays nazi in every movie comb over business man investment banker head
3. Fauxhawk

Basically my fauxhawk is pointier or less pointy depending on if anyone else is doing fauxhawks or if it's just me and 12 year old Mexican kids

I have this freakishly high forehead so I can't really tell if my hairline is receding early (dad started balding in late 20's I'm in my early 20's) but my moms hair and the hair of my uncles are all there so idk op.
