I don’t think about it much, but I feel fortunate to have the hair I do. It’s been said that baldness is a genetic trait that is carried by the mother. I’m no biologist but I’ve always understood that to mean that if your mother’s father was a cue ball, most likely you would be too. Thankfully my maternal grandfather wasn’t. The strange part is I have cousins who were pretty much bald by the time they were thirty – and their mother had the same grandfather. Yikes!
