@Lilac-JadeCanada Agree, the combover is a style disaster. Especially when it’s windy.

Shaving it all off is perfectly acceptable, many follically challenged people do it now.

My hair is receding, ah well it was good whilst it lasted. I just give it a once over with hair clippers when it gets a bit longer.

@Lilac-JadeCanada Wow, that’s young.

@Lilac-JadeCanada Hopefully that doesn’t cause any issues.

Some people are really sensitive about it. I remember a friend kidding a mutual acquaintance about his thinning hair on top, he threatened to deck him if he mentioned it again. This was someone who was usually pretty easy going. I think he paid a lot of money for some sort of hair replacement, I found that out second hand…..

When I was in Melbourne, I saw a teenager with patches of hair loss out with a friend, thought good on her for having the courage to do that and not hide the condition.

@Lilac-JadeCanada Aw, nice! Thanks for the picture.

@Lilac-JadeCanada Interesting how people’s personalities pan out.

I visited a friend in Tauranga recently, known him for a long time. He’s becoming rather grumpy like his Dad as he matures. I understand why he’s difficult at times, and make allowances for that so no worries.

@Lilac-JadeCanada Presumably 27 hours that’s driving time?

I have been to Canada, have distant relatives there. One of my relatives on my mother’s side was a war bride. She settled in Ontario. Near Windsor, I think.

@Lilac-JadeCanada Ta for the map of Canada. A very long way to go.

It takes “only” thirty hours to drive the length of New Zealand. I’ve realised that there’s a lot of scenery packed into a relatively small area.
