Members Armitage Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 One out of every three men has male pattern baldness. Odds are there is a bald(ing) guy in every band over 30 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Yngtchie Blacksteen Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 Any Ritchie Blackmore is bald? If true I'd like to see proof, and what wigs he uses because I am heading there myself.He started wearing a wig in 1977 or 1978.

Members Alecto Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 What about this fine musician? Wig or not? From what I understand, not. Damn, he's in a successful rock band, he has a PhD and he has great hair? Lucky mofo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members humbuckerstrat Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 John Lennon was losing it before he got killed, Frank Zappa too before he died. And Sir Paul definitely dyes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members csm Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 Lord Keef is thinning a little in front -- hence the bandanas. He lets his remaining hair revert to its natural grey when off the road, and on tour he dyes it either 'barmaid black' or that fluorescently unconvincing shade of bilious chestnut beloved of Tony Blair and Paul McCartney. Jeff Beck's hair is his own, but its colour isn't. Ditto Woody. Full marks to Mr Page for letting his hair go back to its natural silver, but he should at least have washed it before the Beijing Olympics gig. Enough grease in that to fry burgers ...

Members Hard Truth Posted March 3, 2009 Members Share Posted March 3, 2009 In the late 70s or early 80s a British guy with close cropped hair was in a music store while I was there. I could tell by all of the staff attention he got that he was somebody famous. After he left I asked and was told it was Brian May. He didn't seem particularly bald at the time. I imagine he had short hair so he wouldn't be recognized while off-duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Willyguitar Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 Baldness is a good. Bald musicians are often supremely good. I didn't used to think so, but the appeal of the idea is gradually creeping up on me (inch by inch), year by year. In fact, I am gradually feeling that among the most handsome men are bald men. As my Romanian father in law puts it: 'He's got the hair left for one more shower'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Doctor49 Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 As a side benefit, women appear to love it, which is far from what I had expected. Bald since late 20s, 40 years experience says they don't just appear to love it....they really do. They come over in bars in Alaska and ask if they can touch it, they send affectionate cards referring to solar panels and sex machines, they apply themselves diligently to it in all manner of ways - I have been rendered deaf dumb and blind from enthusiastic attention of a full-frontal nature on many occasions. I will never understand combovers, plugs, grafts, rugs, extensions, sprays, or any of those blatent cosmetic devices. But then I am not a rockstar.

Members Pixiemixer Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 yeah.I'm not sure about Beck either,if it's a wig he has a few ,I've seen some different lengths.it's at least a dye job for sure I met Jeff in 2003 and had a chat with him. From what i could see the hair is his, but the colour, well, that's a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
