You haven't lost your hair, It's migrated, headed south. Check the back 40 and the earie canals. You'll find it. 

Just tell everyone that actually you shave your head on purpose and just have your beard on backwards. ;)

I'm sooooo not uploading a current picture of me.  It wouldn't be nice showing off that I still have all my hair (and all dark brown at that). 

Any proof of that bald statement?

We'll see, maybe tomorrow (no desire to "clean up" for a quick shot today - lol).

Here you go - a "put up or shut up," unshaven, self-pic suitable for scaring young kids and making small animals nervous.
 

 
I only get some gray (and, once in a while, some grey) sneaking into my beard - and have for over ten years.  My friends believe my secret is never having had a wife or kids... Heh. 

Alright, yer hangin' in there pretty well, Craig.  I'm losing mine and it's turning gray.  Over all, I did pretty well, though.  The hair loss didn't get too bad until hit 50.  

I got a lil extra I can let ya use, Alex. :)

Go Danny.
I used to sport long hair. Swore I would never cut it.
But I ran over it one too many times with the creeper, and cut it back to my shoulders.
At 55, my hair's still longish and dark, but I do have a lot more forehead.

Oh man, yeah the creeper can be a killer....even if you wear it back. I never wear mine down unless I'm playing a show, so it never bothers me. Thank God I'm not seeing any forehead. I'm 45 and so far so good...my dad has all his hair at 77, my mom's father had all his and lived to 83...so hopefully I'm safe. I think I'd have a hard time taking a job where they forced me to cut it unless I was so deperate I didn't have a choice. I get teased a lot....and some chicks of course won't look at me or talk to me...but that's ok, I like it and I'm just happy being me. :)

It really gets fun when we do our Van Halen show though....then everything goes and we get to look rediculous and it's acceptable. :)

I'll tell ya Robert, I just have too much fun doing stuff like this to grow up. LOL!

 

The only time I had long hair was when it was Halloween and I wanted to scare my Mom.  Hehe...

My  hair never got long.  It would just curl up.  I could get a pretty good 'fro going.  If I let it grow now, I look more like Bozo the Clown.  

I suffer the same syndrome, alex. I reckon that's why hats were invented. Also, like you, my hair loss is in the back of my head, so I don't see it when I look into the mirror. Consequently, it doesn't bother me.

Meanwhile, the hair that remains intact is currently about the same length as Danny's mane. My wife insists I wear it in a frickin' pony tail, though. All I need now is a tweed sportcoat with patches on the elbows and granny glasses to complete the image of a radical psychology professor.
