Hair today, gone tomorrow

dome covering

I've never had this problem, as I've always had a ton of hair. Thick, wiry and curly. My son hasn't been so blessed since he was a child, with gorgeous blond curls. I cried the first time his daddy took him for a haircut. Gone were the ringlets, and they never returned. My son is now 33, and is very much taking after his great-grandfather, with thinning hair. Not quite bald, but you can definitely see his dome, when he doesn't have a hat on.
He doesn't want hair transplant, or heaven forbid, a toupee. So he just takes care of it the beginning of each summer by shaving his head, and going bald for the summer. It's a shock to see at first, but if he doesn't mind, then it doesn't matter what I think. I have to admire him, as I've seen bad hair pieces and those can be just embarrassing. So, that's how he resolves his hair issues, bald in summer; hat the rest of the year.
