HOW TO STOP … LOSING YOUR HAIR
Going bald is usually a genetic curse, but that doesn’t stop guys from spending nearly $1 billion per year on hair-loss prevention products. But whether or not you choose to spend money on Rogaine or other store-bought hair-loss products, you should really try to:
Relax: Whether it stems from work, your relationship, or an underperforming fantasy football roster, high stress can induce hair loss. But it’s reversible. Read a book, go for a run, snip bonsai trees — just do something that doesn’t end up infuriating you.
Eat healthier: Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D have been linked to hair-loss prevention in chemotherapy patients. Oily fish like salmon, trout, carp, and anchovies are a a great source for both, but if you’re not into seafood, pick up supplements from a health-food store. Other hair-growth vitamins include biotin, folate, B2, and B12, which are found in both plant and animal food sources.

Cut your hair: Choosing the right hairstyle won’t make your hair come back, but it can make you look less obviously like you’re losing your hair. A shaved head can help make you look more dominant, but it’s not for everyone. The size and shape of your face and head should determine whether if you should Bic it. If you have hair left to mold, try a military-style hairdo, textured crop, or buzz cut.
