Why do us blokes lose hair on our heads and not our pubes? I could cope with being pubeless.

We all dont lose our hair *fingers crossed* but losing your pubes would be easyer!My mate who is the same age as me has already started to lose his hair! its receding nicley now (and he has long hair) :laugh_at:
April 30, 2007 at 3:50 pm #1103990hair folicles in males work less and less as we get older this is due to hormonal changes different to the changes experienced by women, this is why women keep, in most cases, more hair than males as they get older.
research is still being conducted into it.

you tend to find that teh hair stops growing in teh head, but comes out of the ears and nose more.
it’s really satisfying cutting ear hair at work. and eyebrows

May 17, 2007 at 10:42 am #1103987BBC News wrote:Hair loss in humans might not be irreversible, suggest scientists who have helped create new hair cells on the skin of mice.It was thought hair follicles, once damaged, could never be replaced. But a University of Pennsylvania, US, team, writing in the journal Nature, says hair growth can actually be encouraged using a single gene. A UK expert said the study could prove more important in aiding development of better wound-healing techniques.
The human head comes equipped with 100,000 tiny hair follicles, from each of which grow a single hair. These follicles are produced by the embryo in the first stages of pregnancy, and it was thought that no further replacement follicles could be produced during life.
The Pennsylvania team found that a particular gene important in wound healing, called wnt, appeared to play a role in the production of new hair follicles. In its experiment, small sections of the outer skin layer, or epidermis, were removed from mice.
Just this act appeared to awaken stem cell activity in the area, the scientists said, which included the production of a number of hair follicles. If the action of the wnt gene was blocked, no hair follicles were produced; but if it was boosted, then many more hair follicles were produced, with the skin layer eventually being indistinguishable from surrounding areas.
‘Remarkable powers’
The researchers said that their findings “opened a window” for new treatments not only for baldness, but for other aspects of wound healing and regeneration. British expert Professor Des Tobin, from the University of Bradford, said: “This paper provides convincing evidence that the skin has remarkable powers of regeneration, not just repair as previously known.
“It was long thought that hair follicle development, under physiological conditions, was limited to early developmental process in the embryo. “Now this shows convincingly that under the conditions peculiar to the wound-healing environment, the highly complex hair follicle can be created anew from apparently unremarkable cells of the healing epidermis and its underlying dermis.”
He added: “The implications of this observation are many fold, but principally perhaps for what it tells us about the reprogramming power of adult stem cells, and it applications in regenerative medicine and wound healing.”Well you may not have to worry about getting bald soon……………

Tell him to get the clippers out and get it shaved off. I bet it’ll look tons better. NOthing wrong with losing your hair. Unless your vain of course. It’s what is in the inside that matters IMHO.:wink:
