Or shave your head with £5 trimmers and keep your dignity.

why is a hair transplant something undignified? or is the money spent the issue? and yes i'm well aware of the stigma around cosmetic surgery as a whole, for both sexes.

That's what I'm arguing here. If a surgery improves someone's life it's a good thing

i guess you could talk about low self estime angle but the pressure is social and brutal, it takes a lot of guts to tell the entire social paradigm to fuck off.

but i agree with you.

That will go away as the surgery becomes more accessible. Do we make fun of people for fixing their fucked up looking teeth?

When my hair falls out I'm getting a transplant, and bragging about it, because the fact we have the ability to plant hair is actually awesome

we do if they go full titanium white. but we congratulate them if they do it "well". so my point is never go full titanium white.

I want my teeth to glow under a uv light.

by itself it's not undignified at all.

the person who insults and denigrates everyone for things that are far beyond their control (making mocking a reporter with disability for example) - and then tries to appear verile and masculine by smearing 9" sideburns around their head?

Like whoa, weren't conservatives against the longhairs? Haha and also, don, donny, donny boy, jeeze, have a modicum of self respect for fuck's sake. We all know it's a joke. You're the only one you're doing all this labor for.

Well, you, and the marks I guess. Always gonna be marks for carneys.

why are you bringing up trump? dude relax.

people have always sought out something to make them more appealing to society. and there will always be assholes like trump that are social vampires. just warn others and relax.

For real I started going bald at 25, I'm not out here spending used car money to chase youth... I'm old! Plus it saves a lot of money on haircuts when you just shave it and you can spend that money on shit that matters.

I don't understand why cosmetic surgery is a loss of dignity

If you have the power to get your hair back and you give up and shave it I would say that's more of a loss of dignity
