This was a great piece, Joe. 2 of my favorite men of all time shared your 20-something hair challenges. My grandfather had the gorgeous dark waves you too describe until it all started falling away in his 20s; and my husband looked like Matt Dillon in Singles - with the long, wavy, musician-in-the-grunge era locks - when he was 19. Those were shaved away a few years later when his male pattern baldness set in. They would both relate. :)
Great to hear from you! Sounds like they faced the same choice all bald legends did before birth: You can have hair, smarts or a personality. Pick two.
It runs in the family.....just ask my three sons who blame me for their receding hairlines. My oldest son went from long hair to just shaving it, which he has done for many years now. The other two just glare at me, not only for the hairline but also for their (lack of) height (my fault too apparently).

Yule Brenner and Kojak were early trendsetters, but probably too long ago to be of much encouragement. Great piece.
I stand on the shoulders of those legends.
Love it! And the (mostly) bald man I married.

I don’t blame anyone.
But I should.
It’s a good idea.
