would you still keep it long, like Hulk Hogan`s style. I mean having a bald cranium but long hair growing at the back.
I`ve seen a couple of guys doing that. But would you?

For me personally, i would say no. Long hair for me isn't just hair going down my back. it's biggest appeal to me whether it was on me or whether it was looking at my favorite movie stars like johnny depp was when someone had a nice long length of hair all over his/mine head. I can live with combing my hair down in front to cover alittle loss of hair in very front of head but if it seriously goes away up on top, I am kojak.

He is a killer rocker but he has an appearance that only a blind wife would appreciate. :)

Well, we can always hope that klingons are real and that they will be the aliens that come to take us to their planets. We might then be highly looked up towards by their people if we show up with that hair style.

I was never concerned with looking like everyone else anyways whether I had hair down to my butt or if I had a domb that a I needed to buff for it to be super shined.
In the end, I wouldn't have to worry about looking like others as with over 70% tattoo coverage of personal pieces to me, I will never have to worry looking about you guys or anyone else.

Here's someone who can really answer the question!
I have lost the hair on the top of my head, and I've let the sides and back grow for nearly ten years without any trims. There's still enough to blow in my face and get into my mouth when it's loose, and the rest is in a pony tail which isn't as long as I'd like, but still worth having.
It may not be the conventional thing to do, but I'd hate to look like Kojak. Conventions are for the unimaginative.
Too late to start taking Propecia, but I would have done if it had been around 15 years ago.

Depends. If it was only half gone I might wear a short pony tail (ie 3 inches) but if I'm down to the tonsure then it's bald all the way, and not just shaven, WAXED!!!

it appears like i'm slowly heading in that direction
and personally i don't like the completly shaved head look because it just looks so unatural
so i'm most likley going to keep my hair regardless of what happens, i'd rather look like an "old hippie" than "mr clean" lol

Yes me too, I know a couple of guys doing so and afterall, we can still wear a bandana (like Hogan)
If you love it, keep it long.

Hello all,
After reading here intermittently for some time this thread has become the message that got me to post. The words of my wise friend Bill seem applicable here. Speaking of his own long look he told me, "I'm a little self-conscious since I'm balding and middle aged so it's easy for people to assume that I'm trying to pretend I'm young or hold onto a lost youth, when I'm really just a longhair at heart. I'd rather look old but have great long hair than vice versa." That attitude of confidence is very attractive. I realize carrying off this style is not for everyone but if encouragement is needed, trust me on this, balding long haired men still get the girls.
Elizabeth

I have a friend who had long hair and had it cut short when he went bald. It looked much, much, worse after he cut it. I think I'm even being fairly objective about that, even though I've had long hair myself for the last 30 years.
I know a different guy who has waist length hair and a large bald spot at the back. He ties his hair back all the time, and you almost can't see his bald spot.
I doubt if I will ever be bald. It's said that if you will go bald your hair will be thinning by the time you are 30, and age 30 is a distant memory for me!!! Still, I wouldn't cut my hair short if I did. From what I've seen of others, if you are losing your hair cutting more off is never an improvement.
