I once had a friend whose hair was thinning quite rapidly. He sent away for a device that would help him "save his hair". When the package arrived it was a paper bag with the instructions that read, " When it all falls out you can keep it in this bag". It looks like the shedding of the species might be coming to an end if science has anything to say about it.

In people who are bald, hair follicles have shrunken and become microscopic, Cotsarelis said. And scientists long thought that bald people also had a depletion of hair follicle stem cells, which are necessary to grow hair.

So what does science say about you not needing a ball cap when you cut the grass?
