i have so much hair to the point where as long as it's clean, i can just shake my head like a dog to restore it to its original form. i can't see myself balding until i'm very old... i came out of the womb with as much hair as kramer has with a #1! and my hair grows all the way back from a #1 in 2 months max... it's too much of a hassle to cut my hair at all, tbh. and the ladies love it

edit: i don't have really long, girl-like hair, just nice and thick and a bit above my neck

I just wear my hair flat on my head. There, problem solved

Hmm, I wonder if someone could design a headband for high end cans like HD650's that go behind the head. That would be an insane DIY!

the problem is that i hate clip ons aswell....im ok with behind the neck...but all the ones that come out (cheezy sony ones, pmx40, pmx60, pmx100, portapro, sportapro)

the problem with pmx100 is that it looks uncomfortable and for porta and sporta i just think its ugly. I wanna look for something along the looks of pmx60 but with ksc75/35 or better sq

Actually, you may find that some headphones can be used streetstyle by turning them so the headband rests on the back of your neck. I've done it before, and it works decently if the pads are a perfect circle like Grado. It's hard to do with the oval shape of HD595/580/600/650.

I think the weight of the drivers of full size headphones make it very difficult to design streetstyle versions.

I feel your pain, but I think the best thing for you is to get IEMs or clip-on's for when you don't want to mess up your hair, and a full size headphone for when it's OK to mess up your hair. This is my approach, and I think it's a good practical compromise. I haven't found any other solution which doesn't involve shaving my head.

well i could do what i suggested earlier...put a ksc75/35 in a cheap sony behind the neck...but the issue is using an open driver in a closed enclosure

If you want to stop your hair from falling out, practice certain breathing exercises which stimulate and oxygenate your scalp. Also, don't lose your vitality unnecessarily (you know what I mean). The male bodily fluid contains lots of vitamins and enzymes including cerebral spinal fluid. We need that stuff!

humm.....OK, I've taken enough medical classes to know this is not true. Especially CSF. CSF is created in the brain and is plasma filtered from your blood. Your spinal dura is nowhere near your testicles....so how can it get there???

The most common misconception I've heard is that baldness is from your mother's side. It's both sides actually. So I'm slowly balding. And I've got my dad's side to blame.....all the males are baldies!!!!

This is how I primarily wear my AKG K 81 DJ headphones, and it works for me. Looks kind of dumb with the wires popping out in front of my face, but it works.

Hair is overrated. I'm with Kramer. Nothing like a shaved head once every two weeks.

Well your likely right (and that's a relief)- although when I was at UCLA (i was trying to find an old PDF on the web) there was much talk of this possibility. I'm obviously unsure of the biological mechanics in this.

I honestly don't know if I'm gonna go bald. My mother's side all the males went bald for the most part. My father's side, most still have a full head of hair.

My older brothers still have their hair, so that means I'll keep mine..right?



RIGHT?!?!?!
