Patrick Stewart has this awesome interview about his baldness. I'm not balding yet but it has inspired me enough that I plan to shave it all off when I eventually start. ▶ this video Transcribe for those who can't watch videos, from link Even though Stewart lost his hair at an early age, he didn’t shave it bald for a number of years. He relates the hilarious story of the first time he went fully bald, “There was a man who was at drama school with me, Hungarian, he was older than the rest of us, he ran his own theater in Budapest. He was a man of strong personality and a good loyal friend to me. He and his wife invited me for lunch one day, the two of them got to the end of their lunch and I thought they were going to make a coffee or something. Then all of a sudden, I was grabbed from behind by George, this big powerful man, and I thought he was playing some kind of game, so I was laughing and joking but then his wife appeared in front of me with a pair of scissors and I knew in an instant what she was going to do, and I began to scream and shout, and now it was serious. I was fighting to keep my appearance, then she lifted my hair and cut it all off. Then George came around, knelt down in front of me and said, now you be yourself – no more hiding! And he was right because I used to walk constantly embarrassed, I couldn’t stand-up properly. It was not only inhibiting as a person, but it was hopeless if you were an actor, of course.”

Just turned 26, been loosing hair since middle school (16-17), a few more years and I'll be rockin' a Balmer look :) How I cope with it? I've accepted the situation a long time ago and I don't let it get to me anymore (it did when I was younger tho, had huge self-confidence problems because of it). Hair isn't all that important, just be a good person... :) Maybe watch the patrick stewart interview, maybe it'll help a bit: ▶ this video ;)

According to Patrick Stewart ( ▶ this video ), a reporter once told Gene Roddenberry that having a bald captain wasn't believable. By the 24th century they will have cured baldness. Roddenberry's responded that, by the 24th century, no one will care.

There's a great interview with Patrick Stewart where he talks about his experience acclimating to baldness, I highly recommend it: ▶ this video
