have a frank and open conversation with your barber

If you are experiencing male pattern baldness the first thing we would recommend you to do at Ukmedix News is to have an online consultation to see whether you could qualify for the hair loss drug Propecia. Propecia which is made by the pharmaceutical company Merck and can claim to be the most tested hair loss medication in the world has higher rates of success in halting male pattern baldness than any other medication.

As well as using Propecia men should also take some practical steps to deal with the cosmetic aspects of male pattern baldness so that it is not accentuated more than it needs to be. The first thing to do is to get a short "no nonsense" haircut. don't go for some fancy style which draws attention to your head. Probably the best thing to do is to have a frank and open conversation with your barber about the fact that you are losing hair, [he/she probably knows this more than you] and tell him or her that you want a discreet hairstyle that doesn't attract a lot of attention.

If you have a history of male pattern baldness in your family you should even consider going for a simple haircut when you are much younger so that in later years when your hair becomes thin you are not defined as "the guy who used to have an Afro".

Another simple tip for men who are experiencing male pattern baldness is to stay away from hair products that produce a shiny glossy effect because they will make your hair look thinner whereas products which give a matt effect will give the appearance of thicker hair.

If you have resigned yourself to eventual complete baldness you might as well get to this point with dignity rather than creating a sudden dramatic hair loss shock and so the best way forward is to keep your hair short and to ditch the funky hairstyle.
