I think I may be bald when I'm older; everytime I go for a shower I see hair on the floor and my hairline is receding slightly. Is baldness a big deal anyway? Any remedies to prevent it from happening? Do women find bald men a turn-off?

Balding is a major concern for many, and surgery to treat hair loss (ie, hair transplantation) is the most common cosmetic surgery procedure performed on men today. Yet, the market for hair transplantation is dwarfed by the immense market for products that treat hair loss without surgery. These products, which include shampoos, hair-care cosmetics, scalp massagers, laser combs, and many more, have no proven efficacy except for their ability to temporarily increase the volume of existing hair, resulting in a denser appearance than before. Exceptions are the 2 medications the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved: minoxidil (Rogaine, available over the counter in the United States) and finasteride (Propecia, available by prescription only for men), which have limited but definite benefit.
As a woman,no,I do not find baldness a turn off,but do understand how some men feel about loosing their hair.

Well
There are many factors that can attribute to hair recession or massive hair fall and you need to find out which one exactly is responsible for the problem you are having now. Of course male pattern baldness is still the most common cause, but, for instance, if you are a woman things are deinitely different! This is the reason why you will need to really dig down and see the source of your problem.

Other causes of hair loss may include (both in men and women): severe mental or emotional stress, excessive use of coloring or bleaching agents, traction alopecia or excessive strain on the scalp due to braiding or corn rowing, hormonal changes, alopecia areata or hair loss due to autoimmune diseases, and many more. Each of these conditions will require a different approach in order to achieve success regardless of whether you're going to be using conventional or natural methods.

In my opinion it's much better to use natural methods as opposed to conventional ones, they're cheaper, have less to no side effects, and often more effective.

A good way of regaining your full head of healthy natural hair is well described on this guide: http://hairagain.toptips.org

I actually find bald men attractive as long as they are ok with it, I have dated guys who are obsessed with loosing their hair, like some women and loosing weight, and that is a turn off. Look at it this way even if you slow it down it is still going to happen, go with it and be confident that will catch a woman's attention. good luck

P.S. don't wear baseball caps or hats all the time that puts tension on hair and will make it fall out quicker

Sucks doesn't it? Well there doesn't seem to be alot you can do about receding hair lines all drugs made for this are to work on the top of your head or the back. They do have hair cloning which has worked for a few gentlemen in the UK but it hasn't been approved yet and is likely to cost in the thousands when it comes out.

These days I don't think it matters if a guy has hair or not. Bald is beautiful! My husband is bald and I think he looks great!

A comb over is a turn off.
