Do any "thickening" products actually work to prevent hair loss/thinning?

That's it.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Okay, I'm here to help.
Shave.
Seriously. The amount of pressure put on guys around balding is horrendous, and it can consume your attention if you let it. The moment that superfluous, vestigial hair comes off, it's such a breath of fresh air (no pun intended). No more fussing, worrying or stressing about it. Plus, in many cases it looks pretty good. Give it a couple of weeks and it'll just become your face.
Give it a couple of months and the moment there's a scratchy, annoying milimeter of hair on your head will be a natural call to give it a shave for the comfort alone.
or don't. My ex was balding and never bothered me. It may bother.some ppl but tbf what doesn't? There is alwas a problem, too tall, too short, short dick, dick too big, to fat, too skinny
There will always be someone that doesn't like something about you, no matter who you are. Just accept it and be free
Absolutely, and if you can't take the plunge on either do whatever feels right.
But I'll say if you're anxious about it at all, shaving is a good way to not have to think about it. Not everybody has an easy time just getting over the way they look and not giving a crap, obviously.
Plus if you're worried about your hairline, going to get a haircut can be a stressful time and shaving means getting it out of the way. And it's super cheap and fast by comparison.
My life has been unduly burdened because of my “dick too big” problem. So many don’t understand my plight.
Pray for me.
Believe me I have heard woman runing away from men because their dick is too big. And..as a woman i would say this is actually kind of problematic. Vaginas are not infinite holes... it has an ending
And having to be careful during sex is a drag. Big, good. Bigger, not better.
Eh I’ll consider it, but I like my hair for now. If it gets to a point where I look dumb I’ll shave. But I also have a humungous head. Like literally 99th percentile lol
If you're slowly losing it but like how it is now, finasteride is exactly what you want if you're alright with taking a pill forever. There are of course side effects but it's worth talking to a doctor about if you think hair loss will be something you don't want to accept.
Blue yourself and go full Megamind.
I’ll do it if I get an invite to the Blue Man Group.
