Those Germans have out done themselves again this time, with a baldness calculator.
We have Dr Adolf Klenk of the Alpecin research institute in Germany to thank for this creation. By answering eight simple questions, the calculator will tell you how long you have left with your mohawk, mullet or 90's bowl. Once you make it past the annoying German voice over that is.
If you can’t wait for nature to take its course on making your head look like a barren wasteland, then you can upload a photo of your noggin to see what you’d look like as a slap head.
Baldness affects both men and women and it travels through all social classes around the world. So basically, no one is safe. Unless of course you’re Wayne Rooney and you can afford the hair transplantation. For the rest of us though, we can only take Dr Adolf’s advice.
"It's not a disease so there isn't a cure," Alpecin spokesman Rick Guttridge told Sky News.
"But what you can do is treat the condition, with medications to boost your hair.
"What we have discovered is that testosterone has a negative effect on hair loss. The testosterone makes the energy in each hair follicle run out sooner so the more testosterone a person has, the sooner they will burn out of their energy and the hair will drop out sooner."
80 per cent of baldness is caused by hereditary factors so we can’t do a damned thing about it. But factors such as stress and even hats can have an affect on your mop.
"There are a lot of stressed out people out there and stress again has this negative effect on the hair and the energy within that.
On hats Guttridge said: "The wear and tear on your hair makes it more likely to fall out."
