    Nothing wrong with a hair transplant imo. Hair loss is cruel and if you have the means to get the surgery you should go for it

    It’s like max 10 grand to get your hair back, can’t even buy a car for that

      The issue isn’t that he got a hair transplant, the issue is that, if someone is lying about something as inconsequential as that, you can’t trust a word they say. Granted, it’s not even in the top ten reasons to not trust Trump, but it’s a reason nonetheless.

        I guarantee if he admitted he had a transplant the above comment would be the same. It’s not inconsequential…there is a reason lots of people people go to Istanbul for months to get the surgery in secret. For some reason it’s not socially acceptable yet and I think it’s bullshit

        I think nobody running for president would admit such surgery. Many voters would label you insecure

        If Biden had a hair transplant would he admit it? Just playing devils advocate here

      “It’s like max 10 grand to get your hair back, can’t even buy a car for that.”

      That’s a funny way to present things.

      I’m all for a positive self imagine but hair loss is completely natural. Unless you’re living in the world where you deluded yourself into thinking you can be 18 forever just be you. Loving yourself is the first step in being attractive.

        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

        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
