 | | My way of coping with my hair loss, which began in my late 30s/early 40s, was to invest in a ‘unit’, otherwise known as a ‘hair piece’, or, less euphemistically and more cruelly, a ‘wig’. |
 | | Typically, hair loss is gradual, it happens to males in their 40s and beyond, and is seen as a ‘normal’/’natural’ part of ‘getting old(er)’. |
 | | This is one of the key assumptions driving my proposed study, namely, that ‘hair loss’ is exactly what it says, a loss, a loss of part of the self to which we have to adjust, as with other losses (mobility, faculties, status, youth, opportunity, relationships, and so on). |
