Follicularly challenged?.. I think not!!
Fiona's Idea really. Follicularly challenged? PAH!! Its just moved elsewhere, thats all. Mainly places that used to have no hair at all, like my ears, nose shoulders and palms. With the onset of grey hair,Im beginning to resemble a chuffing Silverback
Two pics to prove I once had a fringe. First is at thatching college in Northhampton.

The challenge was set over on Smithy's snow sculptures thread and read as follows:
So, Will has done his bit: let's have some other bad hair day evidence.

In fact, I think we should get a new thread going instead of hijacking Smithy's. Everyone post a pic of themselves either "in hair". (if you are among the more follicularly challenged) and/or just with your worst ever hairstyle (especially for those who lived through bad hair decades such as the 60s, 70s, 80s em.... well pretty much every decade really.
Go on Will, you start it off.

Long before I became (temporarily?) folically challenged. Mid 1970's.
After alopecia struck but before it had ALL (and I mean all, eyebrows, lashes, the works) gone.
And now, despite what Tony says, not Photoshopped, it is growing back black under the white!

You renewing your passport, Kev?
The first one is a bit scary! But then, I'm not brave enough to show pics of me at that age (which was some years earlier in the century).

No not a perm, just me emulating Robert Plant/Jim Morrison with a completely natural frizz.
Funnily enough, Keegan was one of my earliest nicknames when I started teaching in high school. Had to cut my hair but the tash was a fixture from age 17 until a couple of years ago. I only shaved it off as they were supposedly coming back into fashion. Couldn't stand it that even Jonathan Ross was sporting one.
Yes Jim, I think a new passport is now a requirement!

Well I don't really have the after picture but if you give me 20-30 years it will more then likely be as smooth as a babys bottom up there.

Beginning to resemble a silverback Will is an understatement!
i do not think you have all gone bald its just taking longer to wash your face!

HAHA you guys look fantastic. I have been dreading the possible future of follicular abandonment due to the over abundant examples of living male relatives that point it out every holiday. " Enjoy it while it lasts Kid"
But, I have surpased they years they started to bald. I am the exception possibly.

Mullet Festival
Not wishing to miss out on the Mullet festival here are a couple of photos from my younger days... first is in 1975 Reading Festival watching Yes, Wishbone Ash DR FEELGOOD and HAWKWIND. The lovely 17 year old Blonde on my arm is Carolyn whom I have been married to for 30 years.
This is later the black and white shot is 1973 the other 1979
Laugh all you like... I was groovy and my gear was Fab

What time of the year was that 1975 photo taken? October 1st, 1975 I went from a frizzy haired hippie to a Army boot trainee? Needles to say, the shoulder length hair "disappeared".
