[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

Yes he joked and said, yes its true, all those beautiful locks of blond hair are all gone and wont be coming back. haha His hair loss is probably due to stress. His career tanked, he caught his scumbag longtime girlfriend cheating on him in the Bahamas, and then she had the gall to sue him for money and Peter had to hired an attorney, his manager ripped him off, he was walking the streets of LA looking for session work in the 80s, His childhood friend DAvid Bowie felt so bad for him he offered him a job touring with him as his guitarist and then what money he had left and made touring with Bowie he lost in the stock market crash of 87. His hair was showing signs of thinning and he was teasing it up for the Bowie tour. Gotta give Peter credit, Through it all he still manages to have a smile on his face and laughs it off.

As a black guy, the fur on my head maintains my body heat, baby. I’ll do something to keep my fur. If I can do it gracefully. Otherwise, I’ll gather my hair-keeping scientists and take it from there. Until things work themselves out, it’s back to the damn ball cap or something. Good thing my genetics have never commanded flowing, blowing in the wind, as the “answer.” I remember my friend from Soundgarden, Hiro, mentioning Kim Thyl losing his hair.

I wore hats everywhere because it was embarrassing, not only to be that young and losing my hair, but also because back then baldness was not as much an accepted look like it is today.

I had long hair until I was 18. I cut it, got married, job, kids etc. In that time I always shaved my head for the most part.

Debating on whether to get the cream or just shave it again.... I told myself after my wife died I'd never cut it again. Definitely a tough decision.

Right? Stage presence can be very tied to their self expression and feeling good about themselves too!! That kind of mental self care is perfectly understandable for people who have been seen as icons with defined styles

I agree, but I think if you mange to get a good wig with taste, or hide it in another acceptable way, nobody cares. It's when you get the Elton Johns and the Gene Simmons which are obviously wigs and look ridiculous that fingers are pointed. (Although to be fair, Elton doesn't care that everybody knows, so respect for that at least.) For example, I think that Slash (if he is going bald!) is dealing with it in a pretty cool way: he knows his image and is sticking to it. I also give respect to The Edge, who dealt with it in a slightly different way and has made the look his own.

I think the shame is on bad wigs.

Not sure why people think they should go with darker hair when they get older, instead of lightening up a bit. You don’t need to go gray, but going darker just looks ghoulish. Which I guess is the look some folks are looking to acquire. Some of these guys are probably wearing toppers, which is “helper hair” that clips onto your existing hair. Of course prolonged use of the clips will eventually yank out the hair you do have. What gets me is that you can get really good quality, custom made, realistic looking wigs yet these guys go for the crappy looking wiggy wigs. The majority of people have at least some thinning as they get older, so your wig should reflect that.
