Your hair falling out may be due to your sickness, you should go see your doctor about it.

don't cut then .

Its your choice . You want to be special and stand out of the Indian crowd and feel special or just mingle in the crowds .
Its your choice - be a sheep or be a lion.

If you are not a Sikh ( which I suspect ) shame on you !

Shave Ur head bald and if any ask u abet that, then just tell them u have dandruff's.

Than maintain this lie for the rest of Ur life.

I don't think its a sin to lie to keep itself comfortable.

I have seen Sikh friends with bald head and with western hairdo also.

This is no big deal.

is it really worth cutting Ur hair? do u even understand the importance and the meaning behind keeping Ur mesh? y did our guru Jo's ask us 2 keep our hair... think bout it... its Ur life and Ur decision but think bout it bro...

edit----
bro our 10Th guru Jo Guru Gobind Singh Ji gave us Sikhs a seperate identity so we can stand out 4rm the crowd... our Sikh Shaheed's & Guru Ji's gave up their lifes 4 Sikhi and Sikh Rehat shouldnt we resepect their sacrifices? 2day does society and looks mean much more than our Guru's teachings and our Sikh identity? Bro simple question... if ur friends jump of a cliff would u do the same? u wouldnt so just because they havent kept their kesh u think yeh i should copy them? rather than making ur friends realise the importance of kesh ur just stepping away 4rm guru ji's hukam... bro wake up and realise the importance of kesh... alot of ppl dont keep rehat but dat doesnt mean we look at them and follow the wrong path... we should set a good example 4 all sikhs and encourage our sikhs to follow Guru ji's hukam... .. and 4 the hair loss problem as another user has mentioned u can get herbal treatment done and that should help in the regrowth of it...

When i was 18 my father told me to cut my hair because our community is a community of hypocrites who only want to impress each other with low IQ achievements. I thank my father for never interfering in my private life and would like to help all Sikh youngsters. Be proud to be Sikh. Ours is a great religion. But to be a proud Sikh does not mean being a true Khalsa.

Because almost every 'Khalsa' breaks his religious laws. Of the 5 K?s the Kesh ( hair and beard, eyebrows, body hair ) is shown by a massive ( maybe 99 %, yes 99 % ) majority of the young 'Khalsa', weather they are in the UK or the fields of Punjab . Even the 'Khalsa's who keep the hair will reject 3 other physical symbols. For convenience sake - without batting an eyelid. Ask a religious 'Khalsa', - if you take so much trouble over maintaining your hair at the right length, do you keep ?the Kacha? ( large undergarment / drawers ) or do you wear a Calvein Klein brand of underwear. Do you keep ?the Kanga? ( comb ) of the right length or only a miniature Kanga ? for convenience sake ? The ?Kara? is convenient so almost everyone ( including I ) wear it.

When i was 18 my father told me not to cut my hair because our community is a community of shadesD'Sand great martyrs who only want to impress waggery and do good deeds . We have already achieved title of StadArierdar means chief . If you cut your hair , people will call you Bhaiyya ! .
I thank my father for giving me proper direction in my private life and would like to help all Sikh youngsters in keeping rehat . Be proud to be Sikh. Ours is a great religion. But to be a proud Sikh means you should also try to adopt 5 Ks.

Not every 'Khalsa' breaks his religious laws. Of the 5 K?s the Kesh ( hair and beard, eyebrows, body hair ) is shorn by a some deluded majority of the young so called sikhs . Many of the 'Khalsa's who keep the hair don't reject 3 other physical symbols. Even today many sikhs can give life for their faith - without batting an eyelid. Ask a religious 'Khalsa', - if you take so much trouble over maintaining your hair at the right length, do you keep ?the Kacha? ( large undergarment / drawers ) or do you wear a Calvein Klein brand of underwear. Do you keep ?the Kanga? ( comb ) of the right length or only a miniature Kanga ? for convenience sake ? You will get the reply :"Yes , I do , with Waheguru's grace"

If you are keeping hairs because you will look odd, that is wrong. We keep our hairs because Satguru Nanak sahib ordered us. Guru Gobind Singh said hairs are my stamp. So we can not temper Stamp of our Guru. Think what happens when stamp is missing from a currency note. It is termed as fake. Read Urbain and attach to the guru, this will bring bliss in life.
I was told, if you maintain your long hairs, you can not get job. I just prayed to Guru, please give me enough strength to keep your stamp untempered. I had to work as fruit picker, taxi driver for some time and now I have a very respectable job. The people who cut their hairs to get absorbed into society, are still driving taxis. Living a life which does not please my Guru, is living in hell. Do not you ever think of cutting hairs.
