Receding Hairline - Female Advice Needed:-)

Hi,
I am a 24 year-old single male with a receding hairline and I am writing to seek female opinions on what I should do about it given that I have had brain surgery as a child and therefore have a scar all the way down the back of my head. Should I leave it to recede naturally, shave it off now thus exposing my surgical scar or cover it with a wig when the time comes? Do these large scars put females off?
Thanks,
Danny

I'm personally not bothered at all by stuff like scars. If anything, I think it could be a talking point and get you a bit more action!

I think you'd suit a really short do - maybe not shiny, shiny bald, but like a grade 1 or 2? You could always go even shorter if you like it.
Never, ever even contemplate the wig option. Ridiculous. Same with combovers. They kid no one and make you a laughing stock. Better to make your peace with your baldness. Especially as most women aren't bothered by baldness at all, and a lot find shaved heads very attractive.
I agree with Kaff, and I don't think you should worry about the scar. Scars are cool, and give you character, and something to talk to people about. It wouldn't bother me at all.
Try just going a bit shorter for now, and see how you like it. I don't think it's urgent when you're receding. It's only when you start balding at the crown too that I think urgent measures are called for!
Also I'd say your smile is your best feature!
Have decided to take action in the coming days....
I got my hair cut really short today. I have posted a pic, albeit not a very good one, but it's from my webcam.
