As a dramatic alternative you could also consider shaving your head totally in the manner of Yul Brynner and Telly Savalas. It requires some bravery but if the shape of your head is good the shaven result can be effective. One eminent author with alopaecia has taken to doing so rather than face falling hair each day. His recommendation is that the bald head must be tanned to look right but he also points out that bald heads sunburn easily and feel the cold unless you take protection.
Generally most men benefit from a change of hairstyle after thirty-nine. There may be little wrong with the old cut but it is likely to be dull and a little out of touch. Too long at the back, for example, or bushy at the sides or with Seventies sideburns creeping down the cheeks. To get the newer cut may mean spending more money than usual but if you go to a reputable salon the cut will be natural, good-looking, individual and as the advertisement might say, well worth it.
