Today I saw someone who I had spoken to about hairloss in the past.

I saw him for a good 4 hours and he was 1m away from me for most of the day.

I brought up the topic of hair with him and I said, what do you think of my new haircut, is it too short?

And he goes no, it's fine.

Then he went on to say, by the way, I had a good look at your hair, you're not going bald at all, you're completely paranoid. There's no way you need to do anything about it.

I always planned on telling that person so I did then. He couldn't believe it. He then had a close look and swore he couldn't tell a thing.

Just thought I'd share that for the new people.

The first week or so will be tough, but once you start seeing people you are familiar with and you realise they have no clue, it all becomes second nature.
