A man's confidence is more fragile than we thing. Yeah, we tend to think of ourselves as invincible, but you never know when your self-esteem will drop. A few hairs on your shoulder more often than not do the trick. We start to panic, because we think we are getting old. Our mind starts thinking all kinds of stupid thoughts. They range from "Women won't like me" to "That was it, I'm done." . Even if you are going bald, this is a natural thing to happen. However, this is not always the case.

Usually the first signs that will make you worry will come from your bathroom. If after you took a bath, there is a carpet of hair on the floor, most men find it a good enough reason to worry. However, it shouldn't be that way. Losing hair is a natural process, and it happens all the time. Even when you were 20.

The first thing you should know is that it is normal for you to lose hair more rapidly sometimes. Just like with animals, there are periods when men need to change their hare also. There is no need to worry if that is the case.

Up to now, there wasn't any way to figure out if your hair loss is the "normal" one, or if it's the "getting bald" type of hair loss. But now there is.

Keep in mind that the way I'm going to show you is just an indicator. You shouldn't diagnose yourself based on your "findings", because they may not be truly accurate. It's just a way to find if you need to go to a doctor, or if you just need a special kind of shampoo. This will save you a lot of worries.

Wash your hair with shampoo for 3-4 minutes, and see how much hair you'll lose. If it's less than 110, then you have no reason to worry. Of course, this is highly inaccurate, because there are many variables - the intensity, the water temperature, the shampoo and so on. But this method proves very useful, when the only other option is to have yourself checked in the doctor's office.

If you really love your hair, then do this check when you feel the need. But know that the hormone that makes you get bald is a purely male hormone. Which means that its levels are proportional to the levels of other male hormones such as testosterone.

Getting bald really IS a sign of masculinity. There is no reason to think of it as something bad. If anything, it should make you feel good about yourself.

Remember, women will see it as a problem only if you see it too. If you act as if it is something natural, then they won't even notice that. They care a lot more if you are confident enough to say: "Yeah, that's me, and I wouldn't have it any other way." It's not the hair that makes women find you attractive, it's the attitude.
