I hate that vanity is a weakness for me. I dont suffer from it because of propecia, but I know if not for propecia I would have been suffering, and would have had huge difficulty in overcoming this weakness.
The thing is.....I can see the power that having hair gives me. I have diffuse loss, but caught it when it first started 6 years ago (by using propecia). I've maintained since then. I always stayed with a short haircut, until recently, when I decided to grow it long. Amazingly, I've basically regained the look I had in college. And now girls are asking me out again, like they did in college. Part of it is improved confidence with my new dew, but I do flat out look better, and thats a big part as well.
Im not one of those guys that looks good with shaved heads or without hair--dont have the right head shape for it.
So at the end of the day, I am still weak--because hair improves how I look (dramatically in my case), which improves my image and confidence. And because w/o hair, I wouldnt have that same internal confidence I have now.
Ugh.
