I got `Hair Loss: Erase the Embarrassment' by Stephen Williams for my husband sort of as a joke.  We had read other books by Williams and loved his offbeat style, and I thought this might cheer my husband up after he was lamenting that his hair was getting thinner and his hairline receding.  Now, I would love him even if he was bald, and have even told him so, but I also realize how important hair can be to men's self esteem.  When I gave the book, he did chuckle, and it helped him to get out of his funk.  Then he read through it, and told me that there was actually some good advice in it.  I was curious, so I had to read it, too.The book is a quick little read on how to promote your hair to grow and prevent hair loss.  As someone who has a LOT of hair, I never even thought about how much damage guys can do to their hair by such mundane things as wearing a hat too much.  My husband is the only one in his family that seems to have thinning hair and so the genetics thing never made sense to me.  This book offered us some tips we had never considered, and although I doubt that just these tips alone will do the trick completely, my husband seems to think that the book has a lot of merit.It was refreshing to get a guy's perspective on hair loss in such a relaxed, friendly way.  I enjoyed the way the author used a call to action type of approach without being overly preachy.  And I really appreciated the fact that Williams advised guys to live a healthy lifestyle to keep their hair.  My husband smokes and drinks way too much, and he realized that this may be actually making his hair loss worse.  Simple adjustments to the way he lives his life could mean that he not only stops losing his hair, but also grows more back.  It all made perfect sense to me.I know that not everyone will benefit from the book, but I think that following the advice inside won't do any harm and could actually prevent men from losing more hair.  I am not saying that this is a miracle cure for everybody, but it definitely will help some guys battle this embarrassing problem.Most women will tell you that good hair is important in a man, and that may be true initially.  After many years of marriage, I don't care how my husband looks, but I do care how he feels.  If this book can make him feel better about his receding hairline, it is a winner for me!
