Bigen Mistreatment

Fellas (and ladies where applicable), please take heed to this statement that a lot of you may not want to hear (or read), Bigen is a hair enhancer, it’s not hair replacement. It just needs to be said, or read, however you want to look at it. Got a couple spots in your hairline or beard that are thinning or not growing in like you’d like, tighten those right up with some Bigen (pronounced Beijing by most of us). Using Bigen to darken areas where there is hair no longer, that’s Bigen Mistreatment.

Now, let me preface all of what I’m about to say by admitting that I (like most who’ve dealt with balding) probably held on a little too long before coming home and taking it all off, so I completely understand the psychological challenges that come along with losing hair. Battling those bouts against insecurity can make almost anyone do things they never thought they would. Please note that basically painting your head or face to give the appearance of hair where there isn’t probably won’t do much for that though. Before long, you’ll likely feel just as embarrassed by your misuse of Bigen. I’d be more than willing to bet that a whole heap of people overusing Bigen right now, will look back at some point and wish they hadn’t overdone it.

The biggest question is probably how the embarrassment induced turn-around takes place. Will it come about from an incident that exposes the fact that you’re significantly enhancing to others? Maybe a loved one or an associate makes a wisecrack that sits heavy. Will it be the gaze of familiar or strange others on these enhanced areas nagging at your conscience? Your subconscious saying to you, “I know they just saw me with much less hair the other day,” or “I know they can tell this isn’t really hair.” Will it just be your own reflection in the mirror no longer allowing you to convince yourself it’s something you like or want? There could be a number of things; but just ask yourself, is this something you really want to even go through?

Is the better look really worth it? Especially when you know you don’t want anyone to get close enough to notice? For some, maybe; and if you’re moderately receding or thinning, please, make that thang crispy. I get it. I only seek to advise out of consideration and to be considered. PSA to all those mistreating Bigen, we don’t really want you to do that; and news flash: we can tell. It doesn’t get you the credit you might think. Love all y’all.

Again, it’s just me, but if you just need your hairline a little stronger, go for it. Otherwise, you might want to consider hair replacement, wearing your natural state in a way you can live with, or come on home with the rest of us. Eyebrows and lashes are beneficial and serve great purposes, but take it from me, you’ll be fine without hair on your head. It’ll be different, but you’ll be fine.
